THE SHIPBUILDER 21 . . . Grammar School . . . DAINTY ROBBERS Get out! Go homel Or do you want to get hurt? Say yes! Say no! .Xnd put those jewels back. They put the jewels down- XYhich they had planned to take, But when they started on their way The guardsinen took their place. Now we have them cornered And we are glad of that, For they are dainty robbers That jump around like rats. Barbara NYeare, Grade 7 A CHERRY MESSAGE Mabel was recovering from a seri- ous illness in a dreary, grey, dismal, but in some ways happy hospital room. ln spare time she would sit and watch the cherry tree which had been plant- ed in a box near her bed. It was about two feet high. She had watch- ed it ever since it came out of the earth. She was thinking what she would do when it was gone. Then she heard a soft cool refreshing voice. Obi she cried, it is jerry the ro- bin, now l know spring is here. There on a branch sat jerry, his chest was as red as an apple, his cocked head against the greyish pane of the window and from his yellow bill poured a song of joy. .Xh, what if Mother Nature had not brought these two emblems of spring to Mabel. Gertrude Goldman, Grade 6 THOUGIITS The wind is howling through the trees The wheat is growing as fast as can bc, The birds are sleeping as in deep thought- The stream is racing with the clock. ln the shade are sleeping cats Airplanes are flying as fast as bats, Hornets are buzzing where children play- S These are my thoughts of today. Barbara NYeare, Grade 7 A FORM I have a duck named Susabella, She lays no eggs so l've got 'a sell All she does is eat and sleep, She won't even go peep, peep. After many years of bad luck, I had to sell my little pet duck, Now I wish l had 'a back, That ain't no lie, it's a fact. Edison lYhite, Grade 7 IN Tlrllf XYOUIJS The pines are dressed in their beau- tiful green needles: the oak, and maples are fading: the evergreens mur- mur their lonesome song: a squirrel jumps through the trees. The lone- some brook flows over the rocks, worn as smooth as glass. The sky is a beautiful blue, and in the air a flock of geese flies toward the south. l like this picture because it has some - . v ol Gods most beautiful things in it.

20 THE SHIPBUILDER DRAMATITC CLUB A Dramatic Club was formed in January, 1933 by the students of Nor- well High, under the supervision of Mr. Rodman Booth, our drawing teacher. The purpose of this club is to give the pupils a keener interest in plays and other branches of dramatic work. Many pupils showed great interest and the club has about forty members. Everyone seems to enjoy it and there has been a large attendance at each meeting. The meetings were held on the third Thursday of each month. The ofticers were elected in January as follows: President Eleanor NYadsworth Vice-president Richard Claudette Secretary Marion Appletord Treasurer Charlotte XYeare Historian Esther Whiting These oflicers carried out their du- ties very capably. New officers were recently elected and they are: President Esther XX'hiting Vice-president XYilliam Hamblen Secretary Eunice Phelps Treasurer Elizabeth McManus Historian Florence Nelson A constitution was drawn up and approved by the club. Any article in this constitution may be changed at any meeting by a vote of two-thirds of the members. .X group of the members went to Boston to see a play but being unable to procure tickets they went to the movie Little XYomen. All of the members enjoyed it and agreed that it was a line show and the acting was very well done. The club also gave a play and 'i moving picture was shown in the High School auditorium. We believe that this club has been a real success and hope it continues. ESTHER XVHITING XVHO IS THE Best looking girl? Charlotte XVeare Best looking boy? Richard Gaudette Best boy athlete?

22 THE SHIPBULLDER XVALKING THROUGH FANEUIL HALL MARKET XVhat a huge place, I said to my mother as we passed into the entrance of Faneuil Hall Market. And indeed it was for when you entered you saw a long aisle and stalls of food on either side. The market was a beautiful sight, for it was nearing Christmas. The walls and ceiling were decked with fragrant houghs of pine and Clusters of holly. .Xs you walked by you saw stalls of geese and turkey hanging from strings all ready for the Christ- mas festival and still more stalls of fruit and vegetables that made you want to take and eat something as you passed. Everywhere venders were calling and shouting their wares as people walked on, Then, all too soon we came to the end and had to go home, but I shall never forget that pleasant walk thru lfaneuil llall Klarket. Klary Skelding, Grade 6 SI'XSliT lleautilul is the sunset .Ns it passes behind the hill, lt gives me a feeling of ecstasy. .Xnd a momentous thrill. .Xs the shadows come creeping, lfrom behind the shed, I think of that same old sunset .Xml where its light has tread. When the dawn is breaking .Xnd the rooster crows. I look behind the hillsides .Xnd l see that the sun still glows. -Xlice joseph, Grade 7 FLOXYERS Flowers blooming gay and bright, Glistening in the morning light. Hollyhocks are bending low As the breezes gently blow. Tulips dressed up in their best, Stately in their beds they rest. -Ns the colors softly blend Makes one think of a rainbow end Virginia Hall, Grade 7 THE CQUNTRY FAIR Going to the country fair I saw one man without any hair, He was very old and short, Dont know if he'd gone or not: Swaying about in the trapeze We saw a clown, who'd make you freeze, l thought that he would surely fall Xlany clowns wouldnlt do it at all. Down the street went the elephant, I thought he was pretty large. Yery few horses there could dance liven a horse was in a barge.
