Do you know what courses are available to students? How many of the teachers do you recog- nize when you see them? Do you know how the various clubs are supported? The benefits we derive from school de- pend on how earnest an attempt we make to utilize our advantages. Few people realize though how important the work within the classes is. Here we are taught not Ollly the fundamental principles of ed- ucation, but the social contact teaches the observer many things about people and human nature. Another privilege, which is seldom recognized, is the thought stimulation that usually results from class discussions. Generally, it is due to this thought stimulation that students first recognize themselves as individuals with thoughts, beliefs, and ideals of their own. One of the blessings of Norway High School is that we are taught how to think- not what to think. If one misses a day oc- casionally, we presume that it is not of great consequence, and, with a sufficient excuse, the pupil is permitted to make up the work he missed. Never will he be able to make up the class discussion however: that is why regular attendance is an im- portant factor. Upon entering high school there are four courses available, commercial, home eco- nomics, agriculture, and college prepara- tory. Sometimes there is a request for a general course, but is has proved unsatis- factory previously. A student who has been graduated from a general Qgurge in high school has a smattering of everything and is not fiitted either for positions or for technical training. Students from Nor- way High School are acceptable to higher institutions of learning and feel reasonably well prepared for further education. Our extra curricula activities are quite varied and we are glad to say these are sup- ported by the students themselves. Re- cently, we adopted a new plan whereby the majority of students pay tell cents per week. In return for this, the student re- ceives a ticket numbered according to the week. This ticket permits not only ad- mission to athletic contests on the home fields or courts, but also pays the student 's class and club dues, each class and club re- ceiving a per cent of the total sum. Uur clubs add interest and variation to the reg- ular routine of study, and present oppor- tunities for contacts with other schools and clubs. The taxpayers of this community are in- terested undoubtedly, for a considerable sum of their money is spent on this insti- tution each year. There will be a sizeable lapse of time before these taxes can possi- bly be lowered. VVe are quite proud of our present building, but we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that We are crowded in both study halls and classes. The new high school building was constructed to healthfully accommodate one hundred and fifty pupils, our present enrollment ex- ceeds two hundred and fifty pupils. No one can do his best work in crowded condi- tions and the schoolroom is no exception. I11 this overcrowded condition, students become drowsy d11e to the lack of oxygen, their brains are not as alert, and they fail to perceive as quickly. The general well- being is lowered for it could not be other- wise. This year it has been necessary to force into use not only the gymnasium and a room in the old building, but the teachers' room as well. O11e of the requirements for high schools in our state is a certain amount of time given over to exercise each week. This highly desirable course is not available in 24 our school after the freshman year, because we lack the necessary facilities. There is en old adage Variety is the spice of life. Occasionally, I wonder if that would not he as effective if it read 'tVanity is the spice of life. Quite often a person 's or a town 's vanity can be touched when their other emotions ca1111ot. By appealing to this vanity, perhaps more properly known as pride, the desired change may be brought about. More or less changes become va- riety, therefore, vanity is the spice of life. Considering this bit of interpreting, par- don me if I rattle the proverbial skeleton in our school 's closet. Frankly, we feel as if it were our duty to apologize to any new- comers when they first see our gymnasium with its inadequate space and equipment. The realists look at it somewhat despair- ingly, and the kinder ones admit that it is rather limited, but they add that it is bet- ter than none at all. Yes, it is better than none at all, but it is far from anything to be proud of. Our showers and lockers have also been neglected, not because our need for them has not been realized, but be- cause other needs were more vital. It is true that athletics are available as extra curricula activities, but there is a consid- erable number of students who cannot i11- dulge. Many either live outside of town or have jobs which occupy the time that might bc spent in recreation. These are reasons why a program including pyhsical educa- tion is a state requirement-a requirement that Norway High School cannot fulfill. Although our townspeople support us loyally, both financially and morally, with- in the school we might as well be an isolat- ed unit of society. Personally, I have nev- er seen any parent visiting a class, and it would seem the only time that they come is to witness a student production or to in- tervene in some matter between their child- ren and members of the faculty. It is not THE CADUCE US my intention to chide you, this lack of demonstrativeness is supposedly typical of New Englanders. What I do wish to point out is that by closer contact with the school, its students and faculty, there would be less confusion and fewer misunderstand- ings. As one becomes more familiar with any individual, he can usually at least ap-- preciate, if not agree, with the other's views. There we have a good basis for a compromise. The same is true of an in- stitution, and I know that those of you who give my topic a bit of consideration will agree with me. We may move either for- ward or backward, but no individual or in- stitution stands still. Surely our school will not be allowed to deteriorate. You are requested to come to school-our school-and examine it at your will. -B. Bachclder '40, REMAINING CALM IN A TROUBLED WORLD 'tVVhen I was a child, I spake as a cnild, I understood as a child, I thought as a childg but when I became a man I put away childish things. Taking this statement as an authority we might say that men, while young, believed falsehoods and fairy tales, but when they became of age they believed them no longer. This is in a measure true. Men, that is, most men, no longer believe fairy tales. Instead, they have cast aside their harmless beliefs and accept as the truth statements which are just as false and which are even designed to harm them. Cf what am I speaking? Nothing but that which, for want of a better or more ex- act name, we call propaganda. I will ad- mit that in the past few years there have been a great number of different meanings attached to the Word propaganda. It has become a word whose mere mention has im- THE CADUCE US 25 plied that the source of the propaganda is a foreign country, usually one of the dic- tatorships, Italy, Germany, or Russia. This is not always true. Other countries, France, England, even Finland a11d China, are or have been guilty of sending some- what colored or incomplete information to the United States on matters pertaining to war. XVhy, if the real definition of propa- ganda, an idea or belief which is spread, is applied, we would find we would be unable to read a book or a magazine or listen to a radio without encountering it. We see, therefore, that there are several types of propaganda, some more dangerous than others, of course. The type that should be most interesting to us because it is the most dangerous, is the untrue information that we hear or have heard from the nations at war. These have been sent to us with the intention of getting our sympathies on one side or another and thus, perhaps indirectly, drag- ging our nation into war, as has been done in the past. There is one way of averting this, how- ever. We can regard with suspicion and make a mental reservation against all news which we are not positively sure is from a reliable source. In this way, we will be able to distinguish, to a great extent, be- tween the opinions of a warring country, which are certain to be somewhat U12iSeLl, and the opinions of a more reliable observ- er. In the same way, we cannot find the true aims of a political party from a rallied supporter or a frenzied opponent, but from an unconcerned individual. Another way to aid us, as a country, to keep clear of actions that are not neuaral, and their inevitable companion, war, is to keep cool, to leave the mind open to facts from several sources, and not to form any definite opinions on subjects of importance until we have tried to sift the true from the false and weighed the information from different sources. Thus, it is very import- ant that we do differentiate between micr- mation from different sources. If we were able to go back and drag all our old opinions out of our minds, as on a housecleaning day, and attempt to judge them by these standards which have just bee11 presented, we would find n1a11y that should be assigned to the ash barrel. It is, moreover, often easier to keep a bad opinion of some person or country than a good one. I happened to read in a reput- able magazine a quotation from a letter which cast a shadow on the character of Cotton Mather, a respected Colonial preach- er. An issue or so afterwards I was for- tunate enough to read a paragraph retract- ing this quotation. The editors had, it seems, been misinformed. The next time I saw a reference to Dr. Mather, however, instead of thinking of the retraction, I thought of the original quotation. So we see it is very easy to have and to hold a wrong opinion of another country and its program. Let me say, therefore, that what seems to be the best way to keep America defin- itely out of war is to regard with suspicion all information from unreliable sourccsg to weigh, as much as possible, the opmions of several groups, and to keep, in general, a wary eye on the information pertaining to the activities and policies of the various countries at war. -Warren Roberts '41, MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED Do we dare to face the future and openly proclaim that one of us is more likely to succeed than another? To be sure, we are young and have strength and courage. -We have studied the problems of social and ec- onomic life and shall be guided by the er- rors of others. The difference between right and wrong has been impressed upon 26 THE CADUCEUS usg it is the responsibility of the individ- ual to govern himself accordingly. Why should we hesitate to grasp the torch and There is one vital quality nec- success-o11e factor which may carry on 'Z essary to mean the difference between making pur- chases in the market of vain regrets or sweeping on with the tide of inspiration- that quality is faith. Faith in ourselves and our beliefs is vital, success without faith is beyond my power of conception. Yet, as we are compelled day after day to recognize the corrupt and confused state of the world in which we live, we wonder at the hypocrisy of it all. As idealists, we should consider this a challengeg hfere is the opportunity to show the world that youth can conquer all. That is happy, untried youth ready to reform the world and everyk one in it. The odds are too many, the opportun- ities, too vague. The beauty of faith ceas- es to be the shining thing it once was and tarnishes with age. Consequently, we be- come cautious and do not trust so implicitly as we once did. The spark of youth 's flame becomes feebler, and we suffer fear and doubt, our self-confidence is shaken. We are not quitters! All we ask is a fair chance to try for our goals, but we need a really fair chance. Slowly, almost unconsciously, we surround ourselves by a hard shell that few can penetrate and from which we seldom emerge because of the un- admitted fear of more disappointments and disillusions. Where are those inspiring ideals? Have they been completely dashed on the rocks of hopelessness? I cannot believe that one entirely loses the hopes and aspirations of youth, Like seeds, however, they will re- main dormant unless they receive the nec- essary stimulation to procure reaction. It would be unfair to say that any specific condition is responsible for tl1is state of af- fairs. Perhaps we need more self-confi- dence or someone to have faith in us. May- be we lack the necessary incentive to in- spire our ambitions and set fire tothe kindling of our careers. Our goal is success-but what is success? Everyone has his own definition, but few of us have it formulated i11 a single se11- tence on the tip of our tongues. Our en- vironment forms a background for our va- rious impressions, and it is the little words and deeds of others that decide the nature of our characters. More or less fortunate- ly for us, however, nature has provided each individual with a mind of his own, and one result is a varying capacity for happiness. When Tyler was running for president in 1840, his opponents made the statement, Tyler would be satished with a log cabin and a barrel of cider. Of course, Tyler 's aspirations were, in reality, considerably greater, but the log cabin and barrel of cider plus faith, hope and charity would make a great many people happier than becoming president. There is a cer- tain class of people who maintain that con- tented people are unambitious. It appears to me, that they are not broad enough to understand the virtue of being patient and giving thanks for what one has without losing sight of a very definite goal. VVe are ready to work with strong, sincere ef- fort-toward success-that success which is happiness, and happiness is the result of making others happy. -B. Bachelder '40. Lost in The dreadful wfods Where there is no food, No place to sleep nor warm yourself: Then death. -Douglas Grover '-80. THE CAD UCEUS 27 PAUL ROBESON, NEGRO The book, Paul Robeson, Negro, in- spires one with an overwhelming desire to meet Paul Robeson, to hear him sing, and to see his friendly, engaging grin. You want to talk with this giant Negro. You wish that you might have been there when Rutgers University overcame the Navy football team with a score of fourteen to zero. You wish that you might have seen Paul Robeson, Rutgers' end, carrying the team through to victory. A great athlete in all sports. Robey was well loved by the faculty as well as by the student body. You would have enjoyed seeing the face of Paul 's beloved father when Paul received the Phi Beta Kappa key in his Junior year and when he was selected by Walter Camp as end for his annual all-American football team. You fervently desire that you might have seen Paul in 1925 in London. It was the11 that he played The Emperor Jones,', Eugene O'Neill's famous play. You also would have liked to see him as Jim Harris in All God 's Chilluns Got Wl1lgS.7, You would give your favorite set of Shakes- peare to see him in Show Boat. In fact, there is nothing Paul Robeson has done that you would not like to see. Woven into the story of Paul Robeson is the story of the Negro. You realize the struggle the Negro has to gain the rights which the Constitution gives him. Per- haps you have wanted to visit Harlem. Your motive was probably a passing curios- ity to see how the Negro lives. Now you want to visit it to meet the many intellect- ual and accomplished Negroes who live there. You would like to know more of the race that produced the famous and lovable Paul Robeson. You will think Paul Robeson is perfect, just as his wife thinks he is perfect. Paul Robeson can be described only in superla- tives. His voice is said to be the most beautiful in the world, rich, haunting, with complete control. He has brought the songs of his race to the world as no other person has done. He is known and loved by millions of people, both white and black, because he is just himself, a magnetic per- sonality-Paul Robeson, Negro. -Ruth Greenleaf '41, NORTHWEST PASSAGE I believe 'tNorthwest Passage is one of the most interesting and well written books I have ever read. There are very Iew chapters that do not hold your interest. The only fault I found in reading the book is that one should really spend long periods of time on it at once, as it is not easy to get the right meaning if you read it by snatches. Langdon Towne, the chief character, is se11t to Harvard. Through some fault of his friends, Hank Marriner and Cap Kutf, he was dismissed before he had fl!1lSll6ll his education. This very much displeased his father and mother. Under these circum- stances he was unwelcome at home, which made him turn to the country. He did backbreaking work in the beating sun the larger part of the summer. His first action, when he returned from his unpleasantly spent summer, was to call 011 Elizabeth Browne, a dear friend to him. He was heartily welcomed by the Reverend and Mrs. Browne. When asked WIIZLL he intended to make his life work, he replied that his highest ambition was to become an artist. A quietness fell over the room as suddenly as does the dusk blot out the day- light. The Brownes were very much against the idea of Langdon 's wasting his time on a career as useless as that oi an artist, consequently, there was quite a bit of argument following this outburst and 28 THE CADUCEUS the parting that evening meant nothing but downheartedness and discouragement to the young would-be artist. After several days of trouble, Langdon and Hank Marriner became Rangers under Major Rogers. They were called Rogers' Rangers. Because Langdon had been to Harvard and had some drawing talent he was made Rogers' secretary. Their first assignment was to destroy an Indian town called St. Francis. The hardships they had to endure on this trip were almost unbelievable. For ex- ample, at one time they were traveling in a bog, with water up to their knees and sometimes their hips, for nine days. They went for nine days without fire, eating only meal and corn, sometimes building beds of brush above the water and other times lean- ing against a tree dozing whenever they could stay awake no longer. Their clothes and their sleeping blankets were wringing wet. They finally left the swamp, but when they did they had very little food left. T I ' ' f They succeeded infuwipigng-out the vil- lage of St. Francis. They killed the larger part of the population but took with them several white women and children and two or three Indian boys.. They got food enough there to last them three or four days. Before they reached the mouth of .the Ammonoosuc River where supplies were waiting for them, many of the men died of fatigue and hunger, others went mad, ,from lack of food, and all of them looked like scarecrows because they were so poor. Many of them gotso hungry they ate timy plants, bugs, snakes, and anything they could get their hands ,on that was chewable. Whenever they were lucky enough 1to find any game, the only part left.was the skull, and one man even took a skull with him once to keep from starving. There are many more interesting 'factors about this trip but there are other parts of interest, also. d Wlien at last Langdon returns home, he resumes his old crave of painting in pastels many of the adventures of his trip. I have neglected to mention much about Major Roge1's or his character which I should have done before this. Major nog- ers was worshipped, admired, and respected by every one of his Rangers. They all held a very high opinion of him. Ile asked none of his men to do anything he would not' do himself. He always kept them go- ing when they were ready to drop. lt seemed that he could not be killed, and that he never tired. He was never criticized for anything he did. Once again the first thing Langdon did when he returned home was to call on Eliza- beth Browne. This time there was rejoic- ing and everyone was light hearted when they parted. The most severe blow Langdon ever had was the night there was a banquet given in honor of Major Rogers at the Browne's. At one time during the evening Major Rog- ers said that in about a week's time he would be after Billy, the Indian boy whom they had brought from St. Francis, and Langdon said Billy had become a part 01 the 'family and that he would like to buy him. Major Roger's-reply was that he had ,given Billy to Elizabeth as a weddng present. Come to find out Elizabeth was marrying Rogers -instead of Langdon. Shortly after this event Langdon' went to London to study art. He had been in England only a few months when he mar- ried Anne Potter. Langdon studied hard' and made a name for himself. They came to the United States one Christmas and while they were here he fought a one man TIIE CADUCE US battle in the W'est. They returned to Eng- land again and stayed there quite some time. During this stay in England, Lang- don saw Rogers. He had come without Elizabeth because of some trouble he had had with her father about rent. He was now writing a book on the capture of St. Francis and had started to write several articles. At last Langdon and Ann came back to America to live and built a home near that of Langdon 's father. Rogers is said to have come over here lighting the men of Wasliingtoii and Howe. Elizabeth married again, but wasn't much happie1'. This book is very popular because it Hts so many types of people, and also the mov- ie, 'tNorthwest Passage, has given the book a larger popularity. -Pauline Snow '40, NORTH TO THE ORIENTH As early as 1508, men like Cabot had at- tempted dangerous sea voyages in search of a north passage to that land of overpower- ing riches, far off Cathay They tried to make such trips by way of the Hland of the midnight sun. They braved the ice- bergs and the bitter cold of the Arctic sea- but all in vain. I Four and a quarter centuries later, in the year 1930, Charles Lindbergh and his wife, Anne, were making their final plans for a trip by a similar route, not by sea, but by airplane over the seas and across the bar- ren tundras of Alaska-not around ice- bergs-not through treacherous waters of the north-they were to go by a route as straight as a line could be drawn between two points on a map. They were to go on that roadway i11 the sky where man is un- disturbed by passing traiicic. They were to have the area enclosed by the Arctic Cir- cle spread out before them like a large re- 29 lief map-miniature in every respect. Wliat unexpected trouble, storms, fog banks, unchartered mountains, lay before them in their theorectically easy course? Only history could give that answer. To make such a trip required a greater previous duration of time spent in plan- ning than 0116 would oifhand imagine. The construction of the plane was supervised by Mr. Lindbergh from the blueprints to the finished plane. Emergency supplies had to be carefully chosen to cover every unforeseen need that might arise. Food was one of the important items they had to consider. They had to have a radio, both for sending and receiving. This made it necessary that Mrs. Lindbergh learn to be, at least, a licensed 'tClass C operator. When she started to get ready for her exams, she didn it know a coil from a knob o11 the front of the set. Then, there were weather, fuel, maps, navigation instru- ments, and thousands of other minor things that go in towards the making of a journey of that type even possible, that had to be considered and made ready. After years of research and a iinal year of preparation, the Lindberghs in their monoplane, the Sims, started their long journey north to the Orient. The events that happened and the trials of the trip that they went through are too numerous to mentio11. What this flight did for bettering international feeling and in forwarding the progress in aviation is much too important to overlook. By their Hight to the Orient, Charles Lindbergh and his wife, Anne, proved to the air-minded world that aviation had its place in the field of transoceanic travel. They proved that it was more than an idealistic dream that man could cross the barren wastes of the cold north, and by doing so, tie together the other side of the world with this side. Since that year, 1931, aviation has pro- 30 THE CADUCEUS gressed so rapidly as to already take its place as a greatly improved method of transportation-both within the United States and also far beyond the distant hor- izons. -Glendon Smith '40. VANITY FAIR Becky Sharp and Amelia Sedley had finally finished their formal education at Miss Pinkerton 's school. Amelia and her friends wept sincerely at her departure, but Becky was overjoyed at leaving and scornful of the weaker ones about her. As Amelia and Becky left in the carriage sent. by Amelia 's prosperous family, Becky hurl- ed the dictionary, which had been present- ed to her, at the feet of Miss Jemima Pink- erton. The latter was most astonished at Miss Sharp 's ingratitude and spirit which was very unladylike. Becky visited her friend, Amelia, and did her best to induce Joseph Sedley, Amelia 's brother, to marry her. Becky's parents were dead, so it was necessary that she man- age her own affairs. After failing to snare Josh,'l Becky went as a governess to the children of Sir Pitt and Lady Crawley. The other most important members of the Crawley family were Bute, Pitt 's brother, Miss Crawley, an aunt to these men, and his sons by his first marriage, Pitt and Rawdon. Miss Crawley was very wealthy. On ac- eount of this all her relations were exceed- ingy attentive to her. Rawdon was her favorite, seeming to he in line for his rich aunt's fortune, so Becky married him. Later Lady Crawley died. Sir Pitt tell on his knees to Becky asking her to marry him. Poor Becky was sincerely sad. Had she known that Lady Crawley was going to die so soon, never would she have mar- ried Rawdon and given up the opportunity of becoming Lady Crawley herself. When Miss Crawleyi discovered Miss Sharp 's secret marriage to Rawdon, she dis- owned both of them, and when she died left her money and property to his brother, Pitt Crawley. Becky strove along with Rawdon, using her initiative for both of them. During the war, she and Amelia were thrown to- gether again. Since she had last seen Amelia, Mr. Sedley had been bankrupt. George Ashborne, who was persuaded by his friend, William Doblin, to marry Miss Sedley in spite of her financial condition, was disowned by his father. George Os- borne was killed while fighting. Amelia would have soon died too, had not her hus- band left her a son, Georgy. Her strength was renewed with his growth. Becky also had a son, Rawdon, but cared nothing for him. The boy's father loved Becky, but was grieved because she didn 't pay more attention to her son. Mrs. Crawley was interested only in her own rise in social events. She became the most popular woman in London, at least with the men. Lord Steyne cared for no other woman except Mrs. Crawley and re- ports of an indelicate nature were reported at the gentlemen 's clubs. The fatal night came when Rawdon Crawley was seized and put into a debtor's prison. He sent a note to his wife, asking her to obtain enough money to get him out. She sent a letter to him stating that she was very ill but would get up the very next morning and try to procure the money. However, Crawley appealed to his sister- in-law and was freed. When he came home that night he found his wife in an evening gown entertaining Lord Steyne. There were fighting and tears, which resulted in a broken home. Rawdon left his unfaithful wife and took a government job on another continent. THE CADUCE US 31 He later died of malaria, but his son was taken in by his brother Pitt and his kindly wife. Little George Osborne 's grandfather learned to love his little grandson, who was made heir to his fortune at his death. William Doblin, who had loved Amelia ever since they were youngsters, finally per- suaded her to marry him. This she would not have done if, Becky had not revealed to Amelia the proof that her husband had been untrue to her. Amelia and William had one daughter, Jane. Becky had been rejected from respectable company and kept moving from hotel to hotel all over the continent. It was said that she always lived in the same hotel with Jos Sedley, who admitted she was a bad woman, but he could not help himself. When he died he was penniless, having been taken in by Becky 's sly ways. As we last leave Becky, she is left alone, managing affairs for herself, for there is no one else to do it for her. -Vesta Shaw '41 MAINE Oh! how I did love that home up in Maine!

BLUE ROOM Believe me, it hurt to sit there alone at a corner table looking through the torn decorations and the pale colored lanterns floating in a sea of blue smoke onto a stage where I should be standing--a stage where I should be raising my baton to the down beat of a song played by the sweetest band this side of Heaven-a stage where I should be speaking through the mike, wishing the best of luck and joy to the many happy couples as they swayed to the rhythm of Auld Lang Sync which was now ringing the new year in and the old year out. It was my band! I had started lt! I had worked for it all my life ever since I had started college. Then I had gone to the top after meeting Ann. But now all was lost, all my efforts had been in vain. 'tWhy? Why?,' I asked myself time after time. I reached for a drink, and gulped it down in one swallow. I lit a cigarette, blew the smoke in front of me, and watched it circle around my head. I did not hear the music that filled the room, neither did I feel the happiness that filled the hearts or the dancers. The music was not so good as I could have made, but people had forgot- ten that. They had forgotten me. I was no one. It was all my fault, I suppose. Anyway, it was a short story-sad, yet true. I had started my little band my second year at the university and had rounded up fourteen boys who were wonderful fellows to work with. For two years I preached to them that no girls were to interfere with the band. I'd found two boys for singers, who were the best, and I knew I couiu do without any girls in the band. My senior year we had contracted all the dances around town, including the univer- sity balls. It was the first dance of the 32 THE CADUCEUS year, a well known event to the freshmen, that I was announcing our third number, my favorite, In My Solitude, when, looking across the hall, I noticed at one of the tables a girl who was sitting beside one of the boys in the band who hadn 't snown up. I announced the number and gave the boys a down beat, then I went directly over and started blasting him out. Like a fool I had blamed the girl for his being late and arriving in the undesirable condi- tion he was in. I had Al drive him home, but the girl did not want to go. I asked her to dance and then I realized what a sap I had been to think it was her fault. Iler name was Ann. She was beautiful, with her black hair rolled neatly around her head. Ann had big brown eyes, eyes that one could look into, and see a sweet, kind personality ruling over them. She had smiled while we talked, and I drew her closer to me till her soft cheek was against my face. She said nothing for a few moments, then I felt her lips move and from within her came the sweetest sound I've ever heard. She could really sing! She was marvelous! In the dim lights I led her to the quiet terrace of the college campus. She finish- ed singing her song, my song, looking deep into my eyes, then, after a moment of si- lence, raised her lips quickly to meet mine. The boys razzed me, but from that day on the band went to the top in a hurry. Our break finally came. On a nation-wide hookup we became, over night, America's sweetest hand, a band with a new rhythm, style and mood. At Hrst I spent much time with Ann out soon my time was taken up by the band. I hired a good manager who helped us get many places. It was partly because of him that Ann stayed with us at first, as the many contracts offered her to sing alone were tempting. I hardly saw her except at rehearsals and the nights we played. Although 1 knew 1 loved her, I had never thought of her love for me. I didn 't have time. One night after rehearsal I was invited to a party. Ann was announcing her en- gagement to Ron, my arranger. In a fit of anger, I fired her. The band went on the bunk. I broke our contracts, roamed dis- interested around, not caring what became of the band, until one day I sold out to Ron, who came back after his short honeymoon, alone. Ann had got a divorce and had gone to Paris to sing. It was you she loved, Ron had told me. You should have known that. 1 did, but I just didn 't realize it I guess.', I sat there thinking of the many years it had been since I had seen Ann. I reached for another drink. Laying my hand on the table and tapping the loose ashes from the tip of my cigarette I sat looking into space, not seeing anything, when I felt a warm, soft hand touch mine. I looked up. In front of me stood Ann. I looked at her. She smiled. Glanclng back at the orchestra that I could have call- ed my own I let a smile break across my face. I looked at Ann and her lips quivered. You can do it again, she said, lowering her eyes. We could do it, Ann, I said. We could. -Arthur S.

Twenty-tive years have come a11d go11e. The world has now acknowledged that there was a mistake made in 1918. The time has come when that mistake must be rectified. lt has been the sad duty of England and France to declare that a state of war exists. They are on the threshhold of war and are going to continue undaunted to the end. In 1918, a world, weary and sick of war, grasped H11 offer of peace from Germany. Thus, Germany defended her country by a treaty instead of by men. The Allies are now at war with Germany before Germany enlarges to the greatest German armed camp the world has ever known. England a11d France are 11ot lighting for everlasting peace. The hope for everlast- ing peace is but a dream. The lust to kill and the thirst for strength I'l111 in every man 's veins. They are fighting to rectify a mistake and prevent another, and even greater one, from being made. ln short, they are fighting to supress the dictatorship established by Hitler. Wl1e1'e does the strongest democracy in the world, the United States, stand on this question? The United States can take only one stand. She was a part of the treaty which the world has come to curse Hlld re- gret. It would be dangerous for any na- tion to become too strong. Therefore, the United States can take but o11e stand. By virtue of the treaty of Versailles, America should and must help England and France, because the treaty was partly her fault. The Allies do not expect the United States to fight their battles. Nei- ther do they expect this government to rc- fuse them the sale of arms, munitions, and other contraband in this aftermath of the first Wo1'ld War. The neutrality bill is a direct asset to Germany. If we were on a cash and carry basis, we would be helping England and France and because of the bloekades, it would be impossible for Germany to obtain enough supplies to be any real asset. As there is no true neutrality, why not help the side our interests are with, instead of the other side? -Dwight Sawin '40. Q THE ASTONISHING COLONEL KICKMEAROUND It was a dark and dreary 11ight in the Chicaca Mountains. The wind was blow- ing like thunder and it was raining as only it can in the Chicaca Mountains. The sky looked as dark as night. Colonel Kickmearound was at last ap- proaching a small cabin, his destination. It had been a very annoying trip into the mountains, but now he was about to come to his journey 's end. The great detective, Colonel Kickme- around, of the Royal Secret Service of Nockbade, had been assigned to the case of that internationally known spy, Rashbade. This case had baffled the whole force, but not that sleuth of all sleuths, Colonel Kick- mearound. He had immediately picked up the trail of Rashbade and had followed it relentlessly. I could tell you of how he was cooked alive and eaten by the cannibals of Bash- cade, only to kill them all i11 the e11d, or how he captured twelve thousand Mexicans singlehanded. l also might speak of when he was captured by pirates in the South Sea, or when he froze to death in the Arc- tic Circle. These I would like to tell you about, but they are only minor incidents i11 his search for Rashbade. Colonel Kickmearound had discovered the spy's trail in San Francisco, only to lose it in Shanghai. While in Shanghai he had received military honors from the Chinese for a very heroic deed. He had 34 THE CADUCEUS brought down fifty Japanese planes single- handed. The colonel had thought how foolish it was to allow the bombs to drop on the ground. He had ordered the Chinese guns to stop firing and then he had stepped out into the open. There he began to catch the bombs and, with many years baseball pitching behind him, he began to throw the bombs back at the planes. Twenty-five planes he brought down from a distance of nine thousand yards. The remaining twenty-five he casually picked off from six hundred thousand yards to a hundred thousand yards. In India, Colonel Kickmearound was shot fifty times in the heart, but with great courage he pulled through. These wounds were inflicted on him by bandits, whom he met in a desert. They annoyed him for several weeks, until he finally decided to have them removed. After many hardships and dangers he had finally pursued Rashbade to this lonely shack in the mountains. He approached the cabin slowly and made sure that his five hundred and ten caliber revolver was ready for action. Colonel Kickmearound pushed the door open with his foot and looked in. To his great surprise he saw that the room was empty Hlld that he had again lost his prey. On a table in the room he saw a sheet of paper held firmly by a knife. The colonel picked it up and read the following statement: Dear Colonel Kickmearound, I am sorry that we were unable to meet, but as business called me, I left. I should he at least a few thousand miles away by the time you read this note. You see, I left by plane. lt was signed, Rashbade. -Robert Easton '40, A CONVERSATION Say, Bill, written that theme yet?

THE CADUCEUS 35 DISQUISITION ON KYRIOLOGY Kyriology, as defined by Webster, At- las, New Census, etc., is 'fthe use of sim- ple expressions. What do we gather from this? Very little. That is one of the beauties of a dic- tionary, its complete impartiality in dc- bates. Therefore, I intend to pick up the torch where Webster left it idly smoldering on the ground and attempt to show you a few of the faults of kyriology. Kyriology, as practiced by most high school pupils, consists chiefly of simple ex- pressions in their themes and book reports. Their chief arguments in favor of this prac- tice are as follows: 1. 4'Why use a large word when a small one can be used as well? The answer to this is very obvious. Long words were invented, no doubt, to take the place of a great many short words, and this they do today. For instance, which is shorter, He is the one who start- ed it, or, He instigated it ? 2. Large words do not sound well. ' ' That statement can be easily contradicted. Which sounds better, The sun came up, or, His Maj- esty, the Sun, illumined the black velvet sky with a brilliant red and cast his radi- ance on his loyal subject, the earth. 'l Another use of kyriology is in speech Many students tend to fill their vocabular ies with a variety of stock phrases, both complimentary and otherwise. I believe. personally, that this tendency should be discouraged as much as possible. If this tendency can not be overcome by the stu- dent himself, it should be overcome by pro- perly delegated authorities. Let us attempt to sum up these few para- graphs. Kyriology, as applied to high school students, is somtimes caused by lack of knowledge. More often, however, it is caused by carelessness or a general lack of full appreciation of the beauties of words well placed. Therefore, I urge that the only remedy, that of properly enlightening students, should be given by the school. -Warren Roberts '41, THE POWERS OF CONCENTRATION While I was at my camp, Never-to-let, this summer, I was one of two people to prove the powers of concentration. It was a beautiful moonlight night and I was alone, the rest being inside conversing. The others consisted of our neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. VVellsg their daughter, Lois, their son, Carter, and my grandfather and grandmother. I had gone out alone, as the conversation was, in my opinion, bor- ing. Suddenly I remembered a secret that Lois had promised to show me that night. Instead of going in after her, I stood where I was Cdirectly outside the campy and, hav- ing heard something about mental telepa- thy, concentrated 011 making her come out. Just as I was beginning to give up, the door opened and out she came! She afterward told me that, while in the midst of her talk, she felt an irresistible force inside encouraging l1er to go out. On an impulse, she obeyed. Isn't that proof that the powers of con- centration are very great? Even if it isn't for you, it is ample proof for me. -Marilyn Edwards '-43. MY PRAYER The moon makes lacy patterns through the pine: A breeze sighs gently in the lonely trees.

I pray that in my heart I'1l always hear The words you sploke and words that were my owng I pray that I shall never cease to knfw The beauty of your face I hold so dear: And as I kneel in moonlight all alone- I glory that I'm free to love you so. -Ruth Greenleaf '41, 36 THE CADUCEUS THE SOUTH AMERICAN SWAMPSQUANCH This very rare specimen of the Buzz Fuzz family, the South American Swamp- squanch, is often mistaken for its brother, the South American Sidehill Pipsqueek. These two animals are second cousins to the Armenian Buzz Fuzz, so well described by Mister Roberts last year. One would naturally think, from the name given this very rare specimen, that it lived in a swamp, but this is not so. If, while walking through a field, you come upon a mound of earth approximately six feet in height and twelve feet in diameter, you have been very fortunate indeed in finding the dwelling place of a South Amet- ican Swampsquanch. q This animal, if it can be so called, has two front legs and one hind leg. Thishind leg is longer than the two front ones, en- abling it to make tremendous leaps. One of the reasons for three legs is so that the Swampsquanch can make three point land- ings. fThis is where the term three point landings originated.D The Squ- anch, as it is called for short, has dark blue fur which makes it extremely difficult to distinguish on dark nights and, as he comes out only on dark nights, he islhardly ever seen. He is very fond of a certain fruit called squanches, which grow only in the swamps, so you can see where he got his name. Capturing one of these animals requires the utmost care. As yet only three of these animals have been captured, and they all died because there wasn't room enough in their cages for them to make their three- point landings. If by any chance you find a way to cap- ture a Squanch and keep it alive, send it to the New York Zoo and you will receive Sli10,000. Post Script A11y likeness of this Swampsquanch to any animal, living or dead, is purely coin- cidental. If, by any chance, you should happen to see one of these animals, I would advise you to see your family doctor at once. -Edwa1'd Raymond '42, EDGAR GOES T0 WAR One very sunshiny day in the fall of 1917, Edgar Wellington Jr. looked at a newspaper and noticed, to his surprise, that there was anterrific war going onover something or other just across the puddle. With a roar of Why don 't people tell me these things? he ran pell mell to the near- est recruiting office and enlisted as a gener- al. In his hurry he ran into a taxi and practically demolished it. After six months of man killing drill in the gruelling sun, Edgar came home to pre- pare for his journey over sea. At home his friends envied him in his shiny 11ew u11i- form as he strutted around town. Edgar 's girl friend lost her love for him when he swelled up his chest and a button flew off hitting her in the eye. Three days was the time alloted to him for preparation for the trip. A On the fourth day he woke up at noon, spent five minutes in dressing up and pack- ing three trunks of his junk. One can im- agine the mess inside of those trunks con- sidering the time he spent in packing his skates, fishing tackle, hunting equipment, etc. The trunks reached the station on time, but Edgar, following in the steps of Polonius, got there two hours late. Finally Edgar reached the harbor where his ship was to be. He heard a whistle blow and ran up to the dock just in time to get on board the ship. He had been on board for thirty minutes before he found out that he was leaving the harbor on a THE CADUCEUS 37 coal freighter. Three hours later he fell off the ship into another American harbor and swam ashore, wet and disgusted. Soon, after many mishaps, he managed to get started on the right ship bound for France. The only difficulty he was having at sea, was that the muscles in his esopha- gus were acting in reverse and sometimes placed him in embarrassing positions. lt was 11ot long before Edgar saw for the first time the coast of France. In his hurry to get on solid ground once more, he slipped and fell into the briny deep, thus taking an uncalled for bath. Once he was safe on shore, he suddenly remembered that he had left the electric iron switched on and lying on his suit pants. He immediately sent a telegram to his mother asking her if she would be so kind as to switch 05 the iron.. She sent back an answer so hot that it melted the ca- ble and did 11ot reach Edgar. He heard plenty when he reached home after the war and found his home a pile of ashes. Edgar hailed a taxi and gave an or- der to drive to the front. The driver, not understanding the American lingo , thought that he was to give the gentleman a ride. Edgar soon fell asleep with the idea in mind that he was going to the front. Soon the driver grew tired of driving around aimlessly and woke Edgar up and demanded his fee of fifty francs. Edgar, thinking he was at the front, got ont in a hurry, prepared to be ready for the Boche. He fell on his face in the mud- dy street, but got up quickly using unprint- able language. To his dismay he found that he was still in Paris and that some kind of a celebration was going on. He was happy to learn that the armistice had been declared. Four months later Edgar reached home and mother. -Eddie Kaustinen '40. HOW TO DANCE XVhrn you go to dance, for goodness sake llOl1,f let people know you can't dance. Let them ind out for themselves.

And when the winds do blow and rains do pour, Then to my God in Heaven I implorc To guide them through the raging sea safely.

Bachelder '40, ' 'AND DEPARTINGH There had been a hungry pain in her heart all morning, and, try as she would, she could not expel it. Jane stared idly at the piece of blue ribbon she had twisted thoughtlessly around her fingers. Yes, blue. It would be blue she thought to her- self. Everything was blue or grey or black. Even the clouds outside now were grey-a dull, relentless grey. Yesterday, for a few hours, she had forgotten her grey existence. Strange, running into Ray that way. He was sitting in their favorite rendezvous drinking an old-fashioned. Yesterday was the first time she had been there since-was it a year ago that last time, when Ray had told her he was going to marry Stella Ben- son, the girl mother had chosen for him? Jane was not bitter, she understood Ray 's mother, but she hardly understood the pow- er she exercised over Ray. It was disil- lusioning to say the least. After the dreams they had built together, it was im- possible to believe he could share those dreams with another woman. Ray had gone through torture trying to explain his emotions to J ane, but she refiected that one can hardly explain that which he does not understand himself. It was startling, seeing Ray again after so long, she was tempted to leave before he saw her, but something magnetically drew her toward this blond giant of a man, staring morosely ont over the bay. They talked nervously, quickly, like scar- ed people, at first. Then, as they became more natural Jane noticed the many mt- ferent things about him. He was almost cynical, and there were little lines of sever- ity in his face that had not been there be- fore. Jane found her sympathy pushing THE CADUCEUS 39 through the surface of her impersonal con- versation. Things had been going against Ray, but he did not dwell on them long. They paused a few moments in their chat- ting, and Jane, who had been watching the sea gulls, suddenly turned to find Ray gaz- ing at her intently. For a moment Jane thought she saw the old flame in his eyes- but she must have been mistaken for he merely said, May I take you homeli' Why, yes, if you wish, she replied gently. They took the long road to her home i11 the suburb and saw a beautiful sunset. Again they were the Jane and Ray of old days, chatting gayly, almost too gayly, for fear they might be drawn down by the un- dertow in an old tide. For a fleeting mo- ment Ray held her hand as she alighted from the car and a pang of tormented love surged in her heart as their eyes met, but that was all-and that was yesterday. Jane glanced at the clock, noted it was nearly her lunch hour, and put her counter back in order. Then she was relieved by her assistant and passed to the clerk's room at the back of the store. A few min- utes later there was a flurry of excitement and one girl was heard saying to another, Miss Brown just found Jane Somers on the floor in the clerk's room. She just fainted, I guess. Miss Burns opened the door and there was Jane holding this morn- ing's paper. 'LThis morning's paper? Yes, the one that tells about Ray Heath committing suicide. S7 That is odd, isn't it? -Beulah Bachelder '40, THE WAVES Along tlze shores the waves come lapping, Ever so constantly, They pull the little sticks and stones Right back into the sea. They mcunt the wa.ves like galleons bold Out to meet their prey, And the demons come from down below And smite them with the spray.

A VISION I thought I saw a vision fair and wondrous. A group of men were standing 'round a flag. It was a flag most brave and beautcous, Waving in the crisp breeze without a sag. The ccuintry 'round the men was bare, war worn, The blasted trees, the gaping holes, barb 'd fences Of a country stripp'd, with cruel warfare torn. Many other men were huddled in dark trenches. Who were these men, whv' were they here to fight And die in a blasted land, to struggle, war For an unknown cause, who thought they caught the light And wha.t they battled for, but never saw? 'l'I,ese are the men of a few years past who tried To rid the world of war and fought and died. -Warren Roberts '41, NATURE LOVERS .Mriss Betsy said to Johnnie Green, ' ' I 'd like to have that flow'r That blorms on yonder lily-pad, I'vc watched it for an hour.

Yes, that 's right! The new members were being initiated. Those who smilingly performed stunts were: M. Brown M. Gammon K. Cleaveland E. Kilgore C. Heath L. Maki J. Greenlaw N. Pottle A. Kaustinen F. Pushard D. La Brecque M. Shepard R. Maloon F. .Starbird R. Flynn F. Fuller At its February meeting, the club 811t91'- tained a guest speaker. Mrs. Nelson gave an interesting talk about her voyage and visit to France. The club has enjoyed many other educa- tional activities, as well. Several students have given French talks, we have practiced French songs, and all the French classes saw the movie on Paris, which Mr. nowe showed. Ill October, the club members spent a hilarious evening at Charles Partrlages cottage. Weinies and marshmallows were in abundance, as well as plenty of other good things to eat. Miss Parker and Miss Gale contributed a great deal toward the evening's entertainment! Everyone willingly did his bit in Novem- ber to make the annual French Club Soiree a success. Since it was in the form of a French Patriotic Party, the gym was ap- propriately decorated in the French nation- al colors, blue, white and red. BTQIIIUPPS ot the faculty acted as chaperons, while every- one dined, danced, and made merry. The French and Latin Clubs presented a Minstrel Show for their assembly this year. Beulah Bachelder acted as interlocu- ter, while the four black-faced funsters were, Warren Roberts, Orrin Hall, Wil- liam Perkins and Maurice Dullea. Elinor Packard, Margaret Brown, Henry Packard, Jack and Rita Flyn11, and Maxine Roes also contributed to the program with specialty numbers. Barbara Bickford and Madeline Nevers Were duo-pianists. NOTRE DAME DE PARIS Notre Dame de Paris, la cathedrale la plus renommee du monde, se trouve dans l'Ile de la Cite au centre de la ville origin- ale. Elle fut construite pendant deux siecles. Elle se trouve sur le site du temple de Jupiter Ceraunus, ou etait batie u11e eg- lise en 375. Au sixieme siecle, deux eg- lises s'y trouverent, consacrees at la Vierge et au St. Stephen. Childebert reconstruit celle-la environ 520 en style romaiu. Les premiers vitraux peints s'y trouverent. Des debris de la mosaique et du marbre pre- cieux du plancher et des colonnes decouvris dans l'excavations en 1847 se trouvent maintenant dans le Musee de Cluny. Les Normands la pillerent et ruinerent en par- tie en 857. L'Eveque Anseric la restaura en 114-0. L'Abbe de St. Denis y mit un tres beau vitrail. On l'appelait 'kl'eglise neuve pour la distinguer de St. Etienne, le vieuxf' Au douzieme siecle, tous les deux tomberent en ruines. En 1160, l'Eveque Maurice de Sully re- soulut de replacer tous les deux par un seul edifice. Pendant l'annee 1163 on com- menca la base, et le Pape Alexander Ill, refugee en France, mit la pierre angulaire. Le choeur etait la premiere part d 'etre 44 THE CADUCEUS commengee. En 1182, le delegue du Pape consacra le grand autel. Trois ans plus tard, Heraclius, patriarche de Jerusalem, offieia avec l'Eveque dans la dedieace du choeur. Henri II, roi d'Angleterre, etait enterre devant le maitre-autel en aout, 1189. En 1196 le choeur fut complete, les transepts, et les travees fut jointes a la nef. La partie plus basse de la nef fut etendue at la facade principale, que, des deux tours et trois portaux, l'Eveque Pierre de Nemours commenga en 1208. Plus tard, un portail fut construit at la facade du transept meri- dional. On eprouve cela par une inscrip- tion de l'architectc Jean de Chilles, qui en commenca le travail en 1257, pendant 1a Les chapelles derriere regne de St. Louis. le transept ne sont pas une part du dessein original, mais elles fut ajoutees vers la fin du triezieme siecle. En meme temps, les tours de la facade d'0uest fut completees. En 1699 l'autcl original fut remplace par un autre au style de la Renaissance, par Louis XIV. Entre 1771 et 1778, Soulflet fit d 'autres changements. Pendant la Re- volution, les statues des rois qui se Lruuva- ient sur la galerie de la facade furent de- truits. En 1793, par la loi des Revolution- aires la cathedrale devint le temple de Rai- son. La Notre Dame de Paris de Hugo attira l'attention populaire, et entre 1845 et 1855 les architectes Lassus et Viollet-le- Duc la reconstruirent entierement. Les nefs, les autels, et les chapelles sont les scenes des ceremonies les plus importantes de l'Eglise et de l'Etat. L'architecture est l'expression la plus simple et illustree de la Gothique primitive avant la plus riche architecture des cathe- drales it Amiens, at Rheims, et a Bourges. Le dessein est tres compact. La facade a trois etages. Au milieu de la deuxieme etage, une belle grande rosace se trouve. -F.

Another wretched follower 01 Priam is on his way to Orcus. I would that there were one of these Laomedonians who could yield a weapon suiiiciently well to put up a decent fight before he has IHS reckoning with Minos. Ah! The breach is sprung, 'twill not be long now. There is a young sprout of a so-called warrior who me-thinks could stand a cut or two. What, are my blows weakening? He still stands. By Mars and the God of Chaos, he flees! But he shall not escape. Truly his legs bear him well spite the wound I gave him. 'Tis sad that youths who are yet without beards should be called to fight while their valiant fathers pray at the al- tars. Forsooth, these colonnades are a hindrance, but he is nearly down. This time he shall not be able to flee, Well by the Fates, what have I here? It is queer that the King himself should be praying instead of defending his own. There, youth, it was too bad you didn't have the sandals of Mercury, for you might have escaped! It is sad you died before your father 's eyes. But he shall shortly follow. Come, how feels it to be wet with the blood of your son? Truly, if you were not a coward you might have died honor- ably. Relate the message I have spoken to my sire whom you shall doubtless' meet ln Orcus. Now die, false defender and cham- pion of the Trojan race. -Maurice Dullea '41. DEATH OF DIDO My sister came to me one night When I was fast asleepg She was disturbed by sleeplessness And wildly she did weep. Forgetful of .Sychaeus lost And the love of princes spuzned, She, wounded by young Cupid 's dartg For our Trojan hero yearned. Dardanus' offspring, Venus' son, From Teueer springeth he: So let young Cupid rule your mind And listen close to me. Scorn not a hero goddess-born, Nor love for him deny, For gods above foresaw your love And Venus watches nigh. A What can this be that on swift wing Flies up above my head? 'Tis Rumor, screaming that our Queen The Trojan youth has wed. Yet Dido rages 'through the streets And weeps away her lifeg A strange mood this for one to take . Who is Aeneas' wife. What is this? Your husband's leaving you By the will of gods above? That is not so-he would not go If he desized your love. For man is false and he will steal A woman's heart so true And crush it in his fingers strong- Then hand it back to you. But if you think 'twill bring him back, P11 build a funeral 'pyre And on it place his sword, and build, As the priestess said, a fire. Now that is doneg the fire is out- But what do I find here? Poor Dido in that mass of ilames Has lost her life so dear. -Frances Bennett, 940. ,UQIIVITIES ng, M.. wx PP -of fa J 9 , Menu 5552? flif flliii' , , m f. myqg-EM-'xmw X , . . ,. . -A z,if1:w:,.5,.-3--iw L 'm zwk ,M , . ,, Va' f -54 rvzg, -1 N 2 5, -f K' '- YJ? 1514 f'h!

This year the club has been very success- ful under the guidance of Miss Simmons and the following officers: President-Glendon Smith. Vice President-Warren Roberts. Secretary-Angie Verenis. Treasurer-Vesta. Shaw. The club presented two plays, 'fHenry's Mail Order VVife,' and Friend Of The Family at the annual l1i h school enter- . g tainment. Almost Eighteen was presented by the Senior Class on February second. Many of the club members assisted in this production. The club meetings, which are held once every month, have proven to be very bene- ficial as well as enjoyable to the memoers. Nineteen new members were admitted to the club on the basis of try-outs. One meeting in charge of William Bickford, Madeline Nevers, Priscilla Shaw and War- ren Roberts was fdevoted to the initiation of these members. The meeting of January 19 was in charge of Margaret Greenleaf, who introduced Mrs. Harold Anderson. She entertained the club with her various plays and mono- logues. She also gave the members a few hints on public speaking. Another interesting meeting was that of February 16th. Sumner Keniston ap- peared as Norway High School 's own Kay Kyser. The program was full 01 songs and quizzes. The club will give an assembly April 26. The committee in charge is Pauline Snow, Charles Partridge and Beulah Bachelder. Many of the members are Juniors, but next year, as Seniors, witl1 the aid of their leaders, they will set a good example to u11- der classmen and continue the success of the Norway High School Dramatic Club. 1- ., HIGH SCHOOL ENTERTAINMENT The annual high school entertainment was presented December eighth at the Nor- way Opera House. Two entertaining plays were enacted by members of the Dramatic Club. These plays were under the direction of Miss Sim- mons. The first play, Henry's Mail Or- der Wife , told the story of two bachelor cattle ranchers who had grown tired of each other and pork and beans. Henry has a hankering to get hitched and finally ad- vertises for a Wife. Jim Jones, a cattle rancher, sees great opportunity for a prac- tical joke. He impersonates Henry's fian- cee and embarrasses him by gushing ways. After many years, Becky Simpson, a maid- en lady, wins Abe in matrimony. Then, much to Henry 's horror, a second woman appears, who also claims to be his future wife. During a very crucial mo- ment for Henry, Jim Jones discards his girlish attire and leaves Henry with a clean slate. Henry loses a het, but gains a wife.

Heading the list of obstacles to be overcome before the living room may be obtained for the evening is Grandma Wilson. Grandma has lived with the Willoughby familyifor a good many years, but not long enough to discourage Mrs. Willoughby when it comes to getting Grandma out of the living room. The reason for Grandma's departure this evening is so that Peggy Willoughby and her friend, Rosalie, may have a suitable place to entertain their callers, ,Dick Sher- man and Walter Gifford. When the boys arrive, the living room is miraculously cleared of the family for the evening. It is very evident that Dicki'k1'fows his own mind in regard to Peggy Peg is nineteen and, oh dear, the family will just never leave her alone with Dick! Rosalie has her own ideas on the subjecll'and promises to concentrate on Dick, leaving Peg a clear 'field with Walter. Genevieve, twelve, and Phil, fourteen, doY'their part in keeping Dick 's attention well away from Peggy- not to mentionlinterruptions caused by Zinnia, the colored maid4of-all-work, and Pinky, the cat. ' i ' More complications arise when Grandma taps energetically into the living roomito find that a grandson of the much-disliked John Gifford is present. In .ther end, Grandma has her way. She sends Rosalie and Walter off to the movies and prepares to leave the living room, telling Dick to make hay while the sun shines! I Cast of A Friend Of The Family : Grandma Wilson ..............

' 4 THE CADUCEUS 53 THE STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council at Norway High is believed to have been instituted in 1926. No definite date can be found. Its original purpose was to help the student body co- operate with the teachers and assist them in the Friday morning programs which were held at that time. In the fourteen years since its organiza- tion, the members have been reporters, sponsors, judges, promoters, photographers, and advisers. It has been the custom in recent years to elect a boy and girl from the higher rank- ing division of each of the three upper classes. This year a slight deviation from the usual course took place when the soph- omores elected two boys as their regular representatives. The following are this year 's members : Seniors--Natalie Howe, Glendon Smith. Juniors-Ruth Greenleaf, Richard Dixon. Sophomores-Clayton Heath, David Labreque. Adviser-Mr. Sampson. The first meeting this year was called for above officers. Glendon Smith was elected president and Ruth Greenleaf, secretary. The inter-class Winter Carnival and Car- nival Dance, sponsored by the Student Council, were considered very successful by all who attended them. After a close contest, the juniors finally won the class competition. The vivacious queen, Elinor Packard, was accompanied by two modest, but capable kings, Sidney Russell and Stan- ley Twitchell, who tied for this honor. The kings and queen were crowned at the Car- nival Dance in the evening. The members of the Council worked by twos in writing up the news for the Ad- vertiserf' The classes took turns in get- ting the latest reports. It is hoped that the Student Council will continue to progress even more rapidly than it has in the past. SENIOR CLASS NOTES The Senior Class held its first meeting in September 1939. The following officers were elected to serve for our last year in lif gh school: President--Richa'd Schenk. Vice P1-esid-ent-Carleton Dyer. Secretary--Pauline Snow. Treasurer-Elizabeth Herrick. Student Council-Natalie Howe and Glendon Smith. Class Adviser-Mr. Cole. The seniors sponsored the Freshman Ile- reption on September 22, 1939. This was an event that we had looked forward to sfnee the days we were freshmen. The freshmen proved to be good sports, and a good time was enjoyed by all. The play, It Happened One Morning, was given for the Senior Class Assembly on September 22nd. The cast was as follows: The Working Giil ............ Elizabeth Herrick Mrs. Johnson ....... ....

The Senior Class pictures, which were taken at the Loring Studios in Lewiston, proved to be satisfactory. The cast of the Senior Drama, Almost Eighteen, was chosen by the tryout meth- od. Miss VVood, Miss Parker and Mrs. Murch were the judges. The play was successfully presented to a large audience on February 12, and a great deal of the credit goes to Miss Simmons, who directed the play.

Ruth Greenleaf and Richard Dixon were chosen to represent the Junior Class on the Student Council. On Friday the 13th, the class party was held in the gymnasium. The idea of su- perstitious was carried out in the decora- tions and dances. The jinx did 11ot affect the success of the party. The Juniors' Assembly was very enjoy- able. It pictured in song and verse what an old-fashoned schoolhouse might have been like, but probably wasn't. At the high school inter-class winter car- nival, the Junior Class led by several points. Sidney Russell tied with Stanley Twitchell for king. Mr. Brown has willingly assisted us and worked with us all the year. We are glad to have him for our class adviser.

At Thanksgiving three baskets were pre- pared and given to the social workers for distribution. The g'rls enjoyed a 'fweenie roast, which was held October 23, at Damon's Mine. Another social function of the year was a Valentine Party. It was held in the Home Economies Room on February 125. The meeting of March 1 was turned over to Miss Patricia Guard, senior at Nasson College. She told of the Home Economics Department at Nasson, and the opportun- ities the field of Home Economics offers a young girl. Our meetings have been in every way, in- teresting and enjoyable. The club is sending delegates May 11 to the Students Home Economies State Club meeting to be held in Augusta. This is the first meeting for all the different students ever to be held in Maine. The Home Economics Club has charge of an assembly that is to be given with the Agricultural Club. The girls serving on the committee are Marian Verenis, Doris Card, Charlotte Hill, Margaret Gurney and Pauline Snow. The club has been unusually active and is continuing to be so. NORWAY FUTURE FARMER ACTIVITES During the year a much larger group of boys has enrolled in the Agricultural De- partment, thus more members have been re- ceived into our Chapter of Future Farmers. This National Organization is growing every year. The total membership at the present time is about 230,000 boys. The State of Maine membership at the present date is 1,163 members. THE CADUCEUS p 57 Norway Chapter has an active member- ship of 36 boys, divided as follows: Future Farmers, 25, Green Hands, 11. The officers which were elected last May for the year are: President-Merle Glines, Senior. Vice Pres.-Allan Crocker, Junior. Treasurer--Edwin Buck, Senior. Secretary-Harrison Hunt, Sophomore. Reporter-Francis Lafrance, Senior. Advisor-Edward H. Brown. At the State Contest held last June, we were fortunate enough to win the new Farm Mechanics Cup which was awarded for the first time. The boys participating in this event were Edwin Buck and Russell Melrose. As the National President was a Gorham, Maine boy, each chapter made a special ei- fort this year to send a delegate to the Na- tional Convention at Kansas City. Nor- way Chapter sent Allan Crooker. While there he also attended the National inve- stock Show. At the beginning of the Fall term a wienie roast was enjoyed at the picnic grounds at Crooked River. Monthly meet- ings have been held during the year and every fourth week we have a morning meet- ing during Activity Period. This year we have had several speakers during this per- iod. Mr. Blanchard, the County Agent, gave a very interesting talk on soils and Mr. Bjorklund spoke on Finland. Several basket ball games have been held in the gymnasium for recreation after the regular night meetings. For our co-operative activity this year the chapter is selling vegetable 'garden seeds to raise some money. We have also been running our Buckeye incubator, about 3,000 chickens having been hatched. The object of the Chapter is to live up to our motto, which is: Learning to do, Doing to learn, Earning to live, Living to serve.

The loss of last year's seniors hi11- dered the team, but with very good coach- ing and wonderful team cooperation thc new members soon learned the fi11e points of the game. The team cooperated more this season than in the past three. At the beginning the team 's spirit as a whole was very low, but it soon changed for the better. The first game was with Livermore Falls at Norway. It was a close game, but Nor- way came out winner with a score of 6 to 7. The game with Paris at Paris was also a close game, but Paris came out the winner with two more points. The final score was Paris 21 and Norway 19. The Kennet game, however, was a victory for Norway with a final score of 18 to 0. At Fryeburg, Norway was the loser by 1 point. The score was 7 to 6 in Fryeburgls favor. The game with Gould at Norway was a victory for Gould. Norway did not score. The final score was Gould 6 and Norway 0. The Brunswick game at Norway was a very close game, which resulted in a tie, with neither team scoring any points. The final score was Norway 0 and Brunswick 0. The last game was with Paris at Norway. Paris again was the victor with a score of 6 to 0. 1 The team played very good games, but it seemed as though the breaks were against it. 'The letter men for the year were: O. Hall, A. Cobb, L. Wyman, K. Wiles, E. Raymond, R. Allen, W. Roberts, H. Wat- son, E. Luck, G. Smith, H. Wiley, C. Dyer. S. Twitchell, manager, also received a letter and a complimentary letter was given to D. Grover. 63 Results for the season follows: Opponents Norway Oppt.

Many of the boys were handicapped by inexperience. We started the season off by playing Gould at Norway. The Gould players had the advantage of being very tall, and our boys looked short beside them. The score for this game was: Gould 50, Norway 26. Our next game was a victory for Norway. We played Oxford at Oxford. The score was Norway 35, Oxford 28. Although we all wanted to beat Paris, we did not succeed. The final score of this hard fought game was Norway 23, Paris 39. Oxford tried to beat us a second time, but we again were the victors with a score of 24 to 22. The next game of the season was one of the closest games of the year. We played Fryeburg here. They beat us, however, with a score of 30 to 29. The boys all hoped to beat Fryeburg in the second game with them, but Fryeburg again was the victor with a score of 21 to 19. Our next opponents were Mechanic Falls. WVe played them here. The final score was Norway 33, Mechanic Falls 36. We had a second chance to beat Mechanic Falls, but again we were the losers with a score of 30 to 44. The surprise game of the year was our final game with Paris at Norway. Paris was defeated with a score of 50 to 31. 64 THE CADUCEUS To close the season we played at Gould. We lost this game with a score of 32-16. High Point Man-Edward Luck. Letter Men-C. Dyer, M. Truman, E. Raymond, H. Wiley, P. Wight, K. Cleve- land, E. Luck, D. Glines, and A. Guilford. WINTER SPORTS The winter sport team had a very suc- cessful year.

Smith, R. Orre, M. Brown, E. Myers, W. Partridge, J. Flynn, L. Rich, J. Partridge. The results of the meets were: Norway at Mexico was a victory for Nor- way. Norway placed fourth in the meet at Rumford. This is very good considering that schools like Lewiston, Rumford, and Edward Little were in the meet. Norway did a very good job in the Coun- ty Meet and took second place. Rumford was first. Norway again beat Paris in the Norway- Paris meet. Norway again did a very good job by taking fourth in the State Ski Meet. The meet with Hebron was held part at Hebron and part at Norway. Norway took second place in this meet. Norway came back with first from -the Waterford meet. This is the fourth year that we have taken first at this meet. The meet with Gould was ranked as a team meet. This gave the honors to Gould.

Wiley, E. Palmer, R. Dow, A. Cobb, L. Wyman, E. Trafton, P. Vlfight, A. Guilford, C. Dyer, R. Allen and J. Haggett, Norway started its season by playing Gould. The game was a tie in the 9th inn- ing, and an extra inning was played giving the game to Gould by one run. The final score was 9 to 6. The next game was played with the one team that Norway wanted to beat, Paris. Norway walked away with the game with a score of 26 to 8. This made the team feel better about losing the first game of the sea- son. The next game was played with Frye- burg. This also was a close game, but Nor- way came through the winner with a score of 9 to 8. The game with Mechanic Falls with a score of 28 to 5 in Norway 's favor led Nor- way to disaster in the following game with Gould. The score was Gould 14, Norway 4. Although the first game with Paris had been successful, the second game didn 't prove that way, as the final score was Paris 17, Norway 16. The last game of the season was played with Fryeburg. This game resulted in a score of 10 to 2 in Fryeburg's favor. The player with the highest rating aver- age was H. Palmer. All in all the team had a very successful season.

The meeting was brought to order hy Miss Gale, the new athletic teacher. The pu1'pose of the meeting was to elect officers for 1939-40: President--Natalie Howe. Viee President--Barbara Kelley. See1'etar,y-Mary Shepard. Trezzsurer-Marion Yerenis. The following were selected as captains and managers of fall sports: Manager of Archery--Betty Herrick. Captain of Archery-Lurline Martin. Manager of Tennis-Dorothy Wight. Captain of Tennis-Madeline Nevers. Manager of Hiking--Norma. Pottle. Captain cf Hiking-Arlene Fournier. New cheer leaders were elected. They are as follows: Senior-Natalie Howe. Junior--Vesta Shaw. Sopllolncp-re-Elinor Packard. Freshmlan-Maxine Roes. Muriel Paine was elected Freshman cheer leader first but she was unable to serve. The Home Economic girls made suits for the cheer leaders and they looked very 11ice. The girls were well represented i11 arch- ery and tennis. Tennis started two weeks after school opened, under the supervision of Miss Gale. Seventeen of the girls got the number of points required. Green- law 's tennis court was kindly given over to the girl 's participation. A tournament 68 THE CADUCEUS was started, but because of cold weather, it was postponed until pring. This fall about fifty girls reported for archery, ably coached by Miss Gale. From the middle of September to the middle of October, four nights out of every week found a lively group practicing William Tell 's favorite sport. Quite a bit of new equipment-one new target, one bow, and three dozen arrows- was purchased during the summer, and in addition to that which we already had, en- abled the girls to enjoy the sport to the ut- most. Those who shot the required number of arrows during weekly practices, were qual- ified to shoot in the tournament. Twenty- five signed up for this. Each girl shot twelve arrows at thirty yards: twelve at forty: and twelve at fifty. By the process of elimination, the first three places were attained. The Freshmen did exceedingly well and carried off all three places. lst place-A. Hill. 2nd place-B. Tyner. Zird place-M. Edwards. On record now are the names of eighty- five girls who signed up for hiking at the beginning of the year. Points are given toward earning a letter in sports. Only one hundred and fifty points, at the most, can he awarded each year. Most girls have found this sport very interesting and have passed in points to be credited toward their letter. In October, the following girls were el- ected to go to Bates Play Day: Seniors: Virginia Burtler, Louise Pratt. Juniors: Dorothy Wight, Priscilla Shaw. Sophomores: Mary Shepard, Norma Pottle, and Rita Flynn. Freshmen: Muriel Paine, Betty Dow, and Char- lotte Hill. The girls put on a party in November which turned out to be very successful. This had never been done by this organiza- tion, but the plan will probably continue in years to come. The Norway High School Winter Carni- val was very successful this year. It was held on January 27, 1940. The day was a perfect day for a carnival. The skating, skiing, and snowshoe dashes were held back of the school building in the morning from 9 :30 to 12:00. In the afternoon skiing ev- ents for both girls and boys took place on Emerson 's hill. The sophomore girls won the most points for the girls' class, and the junior class won the most points for the day with a score of 51. Elinor Packard was crowned queen at the carnival party that night, and Sidney Russell and Stanley Twitchell tied for the king. The following girls were elected captains and managers of winter sports: Manager of Skiing--Dorothy Wight. Captain of Skiing-Barbara Kelley. Manager of Skating--Rita Flynn. Captain of Skating-Elinor Packard. The girls all enjoyed skiing and skating with Miss Jack, coach. The girls basket ball teams were very busy this year. There was stiif competi- tion with a victory for the seniors. The captains and managers of the basket ball teams were as follows: Senior: Manager-Betty Herrick. Captain--Madeline Murphy. Junior: Manager- Arlene Fournier. Captain-Angie Verenis. Sophomores: Manager-Mary Gammon. Captain-Melba Edwards. Freshmen: Manager-Lucille Child. Captain-Betty Dow. The members of the Girls' A. A. wish to give their sincere thanks to Miss Gale, Miss Jack, and Miss Anderson for the splendid cooperation they have given in planning a good time for the members. 95 5 cw CE Z E z .CQ f.

Best All Around Girl The two most popular girls in our class are Natalie Howe and Pauline Snow. They both received the same number of votes. Boy Most Likely to Succeed The person who shows the most promise of becoming a success is Glendon Smith. Kenneth Wiles also is one of the intellect- ual members of the class. Girl Most Likely to Succeed Where there are honors to be obtamed or studying to be done, you don 't find Beu- lal1 Bachelder or Frances Bennett asleep. Black Sheep of the Class There was no argument when Roger Gendron's 'votes flooded the polls, with George Cummings runing. a weak second. Best Boy Athlete Edward Luck is noted in Norway High for his ability on the basket ball floor and the football field. Carlton Dyer is also a fine athlete. , j It Best Girl Athlete Natalie Howe received the largest num- ber of votes, probably this is one or the reasons why the class of U10 girls have won the inter-class games so often.- Fannie Truman was voted the second best athlete. She plays basket ball-too: Quietest Boy Earl Marr received an almost unanimous vote for this distinction. Probably that is why he gets along so well with other peo- ple. Quietest Girl There wasn't much doubt as to wno was the quietest female. Dot Hall received by far the largest number of votes. Shortest Boy Merle Glines is the shortest boy. HHello, Shorty. Shortest Girl Louise Pratt is the girl who will be the last to come in when the seniors graduate. Qlf they do.j Tallest Boy I The boy who usually wins the 100-yard snowshoe dash, the boy who used to own a Ford, and the boy who is the class humor- ist, Dwight Sawin. Tallest Girl The girl who has been getting all the bas- kets lately at the girls' basket ball games, Lurline Martin, is the tallest girl. Maybe that is the secret of her success. Baby of the Class The person who will have to wait longest before she can vote is Alice Pratt. Class Sheik Who is the Romeo of the two towns? Who is the fellow with the million dollar smile? And who is one of the best looking boys in the class? J ack Kelley of course. Class Vamp The girl with the dimples, Eudora Cole- man, is credited with making tne boys' hearts beat faster and getting them to stir their eggs and put salt and pepper in their coffee without knowing the difference. Best Looking Boy That's the editor, folks, I counted the votes. Eddie Trafton and Jack Kelley are a couple of 'ismoothiesu as shown by the poll of the distinguished senior class, also. Best Looking Girl - Marion Verenis is a girl who is very nice looking. She and Wilma Bartlett received most of the class 's votes. Most Conspicuous Mary Greenlaw, who has been in several plays, assemblies, and activities about school was deemed most' conspicuous. 72 Class Humorist When everybody is trying to he serious and study something deep, Shakespeare or something, who will be the little boy in the back of the room who will spoil it all by giving his own idea of the subject? Dwight Sawin, commonly known as Dude Sawbuckf' Best Girl Dancer That pretty miss, Wilma Bartlett, pro- bably can show most of us a couple of steps we don 't know. Best Boy Dancer The class sheik and runner-up for the best looking boy, Jack Kelley. Best Dressed Boy Sumner Kenniston with his clean and well cared for clothes, was voted the best dressed boy of the noble class of '40. Best Dressed Girl The girl who is the best dressed g1rl of the eminent class of 1940 is Betty Herrick. Mary Greenlaw and Marion Verenis are also known for their neatness. Woman Hater The person who was judged the greatest woman hater of the class of '40 is Earl Marr. Edwin Buck also knows of the in- feriority and bad influence of the weaker sex. Man Hater Though this seems strange to us of the superior sex, there are some individuals of the feminine gender who do not seem to realize the importance of the stronger sex. Dorothy Hall seems to be the offender of the greatest renown in the senior class. Oh! Thiat's Why We Graduated Miss Currier at dinner with Miss An- derson- Miss Currier: Will you pass the nuts, Miss Anderson? Miss Anderson: Clklisunderstandingj Oh, yes, I suppose so, but I really should flunk most of them. THE CADUCEUS FAMOUS LAST WORDS . HI wonder if it 's loaded? I'll just look down the barrel and see. That's the train whistle. Step on the accelerator and we'll try to get across be-- fore it comes. They say these things can 't possibly ex- plode, no matter how much you throw them around. I guess the rope will hold my weight. It's no fun swinmming around here. Let 's go out beyond the life lines. These traffic cops can 't stop me. Which one of these is the third rail, anyway 'I That firecraeker must have gone out. l'll light it again. It smells like gas, but I guess it 's all right. Lend me a match. I took some medicine in the dark, and I must have got hold of the wrong kind. Let's change places, and I'll paddle. Ideal Boy Hair .... ............. J im Cleveland Eyes ....

But he had the head of the nail against the wood and was hammering the point. At length he threw down the nail in dis- gust and said, Bah! Idiots! They gave me a nail with the head at the wrong end. Robert Dow, who had been watching, be- gan to laugh. 'tlt's you that 's the idiotfy he said, as he jerked his thumb toward the opposite wall, the nail was made for the other side of the room. Some Post Odice A post office inspector was doing hiss yearly rounds of inspection and his last in- spection was at Norway Lake. When he saw the methods in which the post ofiice was carried on Qin back of a couple of barrels in a grocery storey he shouted angrily, My superiors are going to hear about this when I send my reports in! Arthur Cobb, Jr., storekeeper-postmas ter, disappeared behind the barrels for a. few minutes. When he returned he car- ried a small box in his hand containing two notebooks, some stamps, and a few pennies. Here, he said, take your old post office and get to heck out of here. Man's Privilege? Miss Simmons was looking for candidates for Prize Speaking one day in the Junior Commercial Division. She said to Mr. Sam Paul Blum, Here, put your name on the paper. Then as Sam was quite re- luctant she said, Oh, come on, you can change your mind if you like later. Sam Paul Blum replied, I've changed my mind alreadyf' I J The Pay-Off J. Kelley: 'tWhere were you last night ? D. Sawin: I was driving around in a new car. J. Kelley: What new ear? D. Sawin: 'A The car I had to get to drive back and forth to the house in. J. Kelley: What house? D. Sawin: The house I bought to put the furniture in, of course. J. Kelley: Furniture? D. Sawin: The furniture I had to buy to put the ashtrays on. J. Kelley. What ashtrays? D. Sawin: The ashtrays I got for sav- ing cigarette coupons. The Passing Parade A certain ten cent store hired an ef- ficiency expert whose obsession was to move the different departments around to dif- ferent parts of the store. One day a sec- tion would be on the top, the next it would be in the basement and on the third day it would be placed where the restaurant had been. After three weeks of this an old lady ap- proached a harassed floor walker freanut Dyerl and asked him if he could tell her where the notion department was. i'No madam, he replied wearily, but if you stand here for a few minutes I'nx sure you'll see it go by. Mary Gammon: I wish to try on that dress in the window. Clerk: 'tSorry lady, but you 'll have to use the fitting room. THE CADUCEUS Gertrude Wood, who was just learning to cook, was telephoning Miss McNair about some recipes. Hello, is this Miss McNair? Yes, why? Well, those biscuits you taught me how to make, I don 't think they 're so good. ' tWhy not 'V' Well, in the first place my brother ate six of them for supper ive days ago. Then he just sat back and smiled. t'Smiled, eh 'V' Yes, and he's still sitting there--smil- in'. B. Billings: Louise, what did you stay after school for? L. Hobbs: Teacher asked me to pass in an essay on laziness and I passed in a blank paper. Miss Jack: Truman, that 's the second time you 've looked at Bancroft 's paper. Truman: I know it. I can't read his writing very well.', Probably Nor' S. Twitchell: Do you play golf? C. Hill: Dear me, no! I don 't believe I should even know how to hold the cad- die. S. Russell: Do you know how to hand- le a horse 2 W. Roberts: Yes, all but one thing. How do you make a horse post? Sea Scout Raymond: Did your watch stop when it dropped on the deck? Sea Scout Morse: Sure! Did you think it would go through? 75 . CLASS AUTO OF 1940 .Steering Wheel-Mr. Cole. Engine-B. Herrick, M. Greenlaw, N. Howe and B. Bachelder. Body-P. Snow. Turret Top-C.
