-I-ho Page Eleven in spite of the haziness of his mind he heard a crunching noise which he realized must be that of the ship striking rocks. After he regained control of himself, he ran from his cabin, not bothering to finish dressing. His mind was still hazy but he seemed to know that he must endeavor to reach the men upon the upper deck. When he reached there, he found the men plac- ing as much food and water into the one remaining dory as it would hold. The mate, seeing that Captain Bowen was injured, rushed to him and helped him into the dory. Bowen remembered being helped into the boat, but no more as he lapsed into unconsciousness. The men, though weak, rowed the dory all night until they noticed that the water was getting more shallow. They prayed with heavy hearts that they were nearing an island. The boat struck the shore, and the men, after lifting out their beloved Captain and placing him on the sandy beach, laid themselves down and slept contentedly. Captain Bowen awoke and was amazed to find himself in a hospital room. He learned from his mate that an American naval ship had seen the wreck of the t'Arabel1a and the captain of the rescue ship had realized that there must have been men aboard her. He had lowered a life-boat and had sent a group of sailors to the nearest island where they had found the exhausted men. The ship had taken them to the nearest naval base where they had been placed in the infirmary and treated for exposure and the Captain for concussion of the brain. When the captain heard of the fate of his ship, the 'fArabellal', he was overcome with grief and could not speak. Finally regaining control of himself he smiled and said to his faithful mate, She was a good ship. I was always proud of her. With a deep sigh, he passed away. N. Cole '44 CHEMISTRY This year the Chemistry class has the privilege of being the untried students of a new teacher, Mr. Wilson. Last year Mr. Sipple left us for another job, and Mr. Wilson was chosen to fill his position. The first few days were spent in getting acquainted, but as time went by Mr. Wilson became surprised at the mental abilities of his Chemistry class. We were able to ask more questions, learn less and make more noise in less time than any class he had ever seen. This didn't last long though, the stern and commanding char- acter of Mr. Wilson has through these many months made us mental geniuses, including that new student james King who came in November. Wednesday afternoon, as all tenth graders know, is lab period, when we do our best to make the worst smelling gases. Apparently we weren't very successful for instead of smoking Mr. Wilson out we attracted Miss Laurel Cahoon, a junior. About the middle of the course we had the fortune of having many new and ex- pensive chemicals and solutions given to the class by Professor Tenny Davis. We appreciated this very much for it was get- ting so we couldn't do half the experiments for the lack of equipment and chemicals. Under the expert and guiding hand of Mr. Wilson we are fast becoming real chemists. We have been able to produce many gases, compounds, and solutions of which we knew nothing before this course. The electron and ionization theories have become interesting subjects of discussion and not boring ta.ks of which we have no understanding. Mr. Wilson is doing a great job and we the Seniors and Juniors are proud of his work. Unfortunately, we fear Mr. Wilson will be lost without the talents of the Seniors next year. He is going to have a job on his hands with those Juniors, but we have faith in him. Willard Osberg '4 1. Home Economics Department Home Economics is a subject that covers two fields, Sewing and Cooking. It is an important subject especially for young girls. The course in sewing is started with the sixth grade girls and carried on through High School, starting with small articles and gradually working toward larger gar- ments. The 6th grades accomplishments this year are: stuffed toys, yarn belts, Christ- mas gifts, boleros and hats, blouses. The 7th grade made wrist pin cushions, boleros, hats, blouses and shorts. The Senior High School schedule was worked out a little differently. The classes used the 4-H club basis which included housecoats, play suits, sport dresses, blouses, skirts, and complete suits. The climax of the sewing program was presented March IO to the Parents and Teachers. It was a style show modelling the work they had accomplished during the year. The Food courses of Grade ll-12 con- sisted of work on nutrition and special diets, administrative work, and unit work. Notebooks are kept for each unit. Grade 8 prepares the food to be served in the Cafeteria at noon, and Grade 0 serves it to the pupils. C. .,0.Yt'f711 '4 l.

The Shipbuilder Page Thirteen Social Studies Social studies include United States and modern history. In grades seven through nine there is a course of geography, history, and civics. The story of the development of the governments of the world is studied by the seventh grade. Also they have been trying to keep up with the ever changing geo- graphical conditions of Europe and the Asiatic countries. Their classes are brief discussions and written work. The eighth grade is learning the social and economical history of the United States with the conditions that we have today compared with the conditions of yesterday. Most of their work is done by making units which are illustrated with graphs, charts, and clippings. The ninth grade is studying the civics of the town, city, and state, which takes in the modern conditions of crime, customs and government. World History is studied by the tenth grade under the direction of Mr. Thayer. Last but not least the juniors and a few seniors are struggling with United States History, a most interesting subject, under the direction of Mr. Graham. The book is divided into units, in one week a unit is given us to read and questions to answer. After having thoroughly discussed the ma- terial it is given to us in a test. Dedicated to William Dawes Annoymouse On the eighteenth of April in -76, Revere and another man rode through the sticks, Revere was stopped but Dawes rode on, And warned the citizens before dawn, When the British were marching along the ? street, . They were met with many unwelcomed treats, They were shot at by minutemen hid from sight, And death came to many from out of the night, This started the war in which many men fought, And gained independence as a last resort, As you may have noticed this poem's about Dawes, Whose name's been dismissed from most peoples' jaws, He deserves this credit as much as Revere, Though he's been denied it for many a year. Mildred Carlson, Gr. 8. Miss Mayo: Did you write this unaided? Francis Dyer: I did, every line of it. Miss Mayo: Then I am very pleased to meet you, Lord Tennyson. I thought you died years ago. Our Library This year our library again expanded, thanks to the aid of the Leonard Allen Fund and the P. T. A. Those books ob- tained from the Leonard Allen Fund in- clude Birds of America , The Naza- rene , One Act Plays by Cohen, Green Mansions , Hawthorne's Wonder Book , World's Great Letters, and Lee, the American. Many fields were covered in the selection and everyone should find something to his liking. There is adventure such as Dana, and Halliburton are capable of writing, some of the older classics by Hardy, in- formative books like Automobile body and fender repairs. Modern fiction as done by Roberts and Edmonds. Biography and to interest the lower grades, works such as Alcott alone could produce. If nothing of interest can be found in our library we think it only fair to warn the unsatisfied looker that something is wrong with him M not the library. A. Mohler '41. Eeny-Meeny-Miny-Mo For the first time in about eight years, Norwell High School presented an operetta. It was entitled Eeny-Meeny-Miny-Mo. Miss Bowlin had charge of the Music. Miss Mayo coached the dramatics, Miss Malaney, taught the girls the dances, Miss Hurley was the pianist and Mrs. Turner had supervision over the costumes. The Senior class took over the management of stage directing, tickets, ushering and sell- ing candy. Due to an unpredicted illness of the lead, Florence Shaw, Constance Joseph stepped in and did a marvelous job. It was a very colorful event and was as everyone hoped, a great success. Worthy of mention in the operetta were Connie joseph for the marvelous job she did in filling in and Elizabeth Wadsworth for a grand performance as Sammy, a colored boy. Our hats are off to these two. .-1. Mohler '4l. IUST A POEM A kiss is a noun because it is proper, It is a pronoun because he and she both stand for it, It is an adverb because it makes an explanation, It is a verb because it is both active and passive, It is a conjunction because it connects, It is a preposition because it has an object: It is an interjection because of sudden and strong feelings. Old Timer: How do you like our little town of Norwell? Visitor: It's the first cemetery that I've ever seen with lights in it.
