DIEHL, who has been a successful teacher, a good coach, and a leader in all school activities, we respect- fully dedicate this issue of the “WHIRLPOOL” In Memoriam FLORIETTE EDWARDS THE PENNELL WHIRLPOOL INTEREST OF THE TOWN PEOPLE IN OUR SCHOOL The progress of our school and the place which it holds in the community depends largely upon the interest which many of the town people show in its activities.. When І attended a town meeting two years ago there was an article in the warrant asking for an appropriation for the Athletic Associa- tion of Pennell Institute. One of the trustees, in expressing his views, said, “Tf the bovs want to get some money for their athletics let them join the woodchoppers' association and earn it as we had to do. Another gentle- man, a member of the alumni, made statements of a similar nature. It seems that such people harbor a sort of jealousv because the boys of today have more opportunities than they had when they attended this school. Schools are constantly changing and are offering more opportunities to the younger generations. There are many members of this town who prefer to see the school remain in the same state which it has alwavs been in. A school's popularity depends upon its activities with other schools. and a school often means the upbuilding of a town. Nearly every school has a gymnasium or is building one. Pen- nell Institute has no means by which to accommodate visiting athletes. This lack of accommodation is a great handicap to the school. When the hockev rink was flooded a vear ago by the town's water, the athletic asso- ciation paid for it. This act did not show very good spirit toward the When the spirit of some of our town's people changes. the spirit of the students will change and the school. THE PENNELL co-operation of their interests will have far-reaching results in the progress of our school. JUST GETTING BY “Why should I worry about study- I got by last period and I think You can study ing? I can get by this one. if vou want to. I'm going to take it easy.” Tt is often true that this slacker will be able to pass in his studies and even to receive a school diploma. However, when he goes into the world to make his living, he will often find that this policy of just “getting by” is detrimental to his success. [ might illustrate this by the story of two young men who were class- mates in high school. James Walker was an industrious boy who always aimed to do the best possible in all his work, while Rolland Roberts, on the other hand, was one oí the “just getting by” kind. Both received their diplomas and took an high electrical engineering course at the Northeastern University. After graduating from the University, Walker secured a position and readily received promotion. Roberts secured a position, but at the labor depression he was the first one to be laid off because he had carried his “getting by” policy too far. If we are to be successful we must start at first with the idea that we are going to do our best in all our work. If everyone had lived by this policy of just “getting by” civilization could not WHIRLPCOL have advanced to its present stage, and if we try to live by it, present condi- tions will not improve, H. F. M. A FRIEND I know of nothing which is more inspiring to a member of any organiza- tion than the thought that there are some people who are faithful to its support. There are people in town who have helped the school in various which I shall not enumerate here. I wish to deal here particularly with one who has helped the school, especially the Athletic Association, in many financial depressions. As these gifts were made out of pure merit and not for publicity, I shall not mention the name. I merely wish to assure that person that every member of the school is very grateful for his kind donations. Many times when the Athletic Association was in need of money he has graciously donated them a generous sum. It is this kind of backing that enlightens the spirit of the students and makes them inter- ested in their school. If this interest is prevalent throughout the town, then the school will be a better benefactor to the community. ways Н.Е. М. SETTING A GOAL “What do you intend to do after you graduate from high school?” “I don't know. I haven't thought about it. How often is this the reply when a student is asked that question. He is 6 THE just drifting along with no thoughts of what he will do in the future. Per- haps he is going to school because his parents want him to or because he thinks he can have a good time. Too often do we find, when it is too late, that there would be a good oppor- tunity for us, had we taken the right courses in high school. Then do we realize the value of looking ahead. If everyone when he enters high school will start with a set goal and do every- thing possible to reach that goal he can then feel that he has accomplished something. H. F. M.

The state is plentifully supplied with bathing beaches, ranging from the magnificent stretch of sand at Old Orchard, at Crescent Beach to the small resorts at Cape Elizabeth. Old Orchard has been a big resort for lov- ers of surf bathing and cool ocean breezes for many years and has lost none of its charm since swept by fire. In fact, the new Old Orchard is much of more attractive in many respects than was the old. At the mouth of the Kennebec river is Popham Beach. one of the best on the coast. Its development has not been so extensive as that of Old Orchard, but doubtless in the future its beauties will be better appreciated. All along the coast, there are smaller beaches which offer as fine bathing facilities, as do Old Orchard and Popham, while nearly every mile of coast line contains a sand cove or a little beach among the rocks. As a hunter’s paradise, Maine is well-known on this continent. The moose, deer, bear. and other large game animals are numerous, but not THE so easily killed that the fun of the sport is lost. It is the business men of New York to be in as possible for good hunting ground as can be found anywhere, within forty-eight hours’ travel from his office. The Rangeley, and Aroostook, also the Kineo lines. carry the hunter into the heart of the big game country. Maine fishing lures the great anglers of the country to its lakes and streams every year. Wise protective laws pre- vent the fish from being exterminated or their number from being appreci- ably reduced. so that the sport does rot suffer as the number of anglers increase. Some of the finest cottages and camps in the state are occupied only during the best of the fishing sea- The fish and game resources of the state are among the greatest assets, from the standard point of the business man who caters to tourist guests. In addition to the attractions of fishing, hunting and bathing beaches, Maine has remarkable scenery. Two of the most noted places are Mount Desert Island and the Mount Katahdin Region. Mount Desert Island, on which is Lafayette National Park, is unique in that it combines the scenic beauty of mountains, lakes, sea and estuary. It is true that Mount Katahdin is not the largest peak in New England but it is, however, the most imposing peak east of the Rockies. The Indians recognized this fact when they named it Kette-Adene, the preeminent. Ka- tahdin sufficiently dominated the hori- zon to command a view extending from the Canadian border on the north son. PENNELL WHIRLPOOL 9 to Mount Desert Island on the south. Fine as the view is from the summit, Winthrop he said, Katahdin's self is finer than what Ka- tahdin Mount Katahdin is a peak whose greatness has not as vet been fully discovered. Although our own Pine Tree State has not the geysers of the Yellowstone, the lofty cliffs of the Yosemite Valley or the sublime depths of the Grand Canyon, yet in Maine. there are vast expanses of forests. numerous beaches, thousands of sparkling lakes and streams, and rocky, picturesque, moun- tainous landscape.

The sun was peeping over the horizon making the walls of King Philip’s castle sparkle like diamonds. The green lawn was dotted with dan- delions and birds were twittering in the nearby trees. The water in the moat was winding along its course. Within the castle could be heard the sound of clanging arms as they were being donned by the knights. Upon the hearth a large fire was blazing with the odor of pine pitch from the burrs used in kindling the fire. The smell of boiling meat pervaded the air. The King and the Queen were mov- ing slowly toward the throne, followed by their attendants. The draw bridge 10 THE clanked as it was let down across the moat. The sound of dogs’ barking was mingled with the tramp of horses’ feet as the knights were preparing for a morning hunt. The guards were stationed in their places about the castle. Chapter IT A Skeleton in the Family Closet As the knights rode away to the hunt one lone knight rode by himself in a different direction. He had his visor pulled down so closely about his face that he could not be recognized. He carried a sack which was fastened to the pommel of his saddle. Within the castle King Philip sat on his throne surrounded by guards. There was a look on his face which would have disturbed anyone unac- quainted with his character. Marcel, a son of St. Bernard, one of the knights, was gazing from a castle window. He saw a lone knight disap- pear into the woods. Many a time had he watched this figure vanish. He began to wonder what could be the meaning of it. Finally he determined to follow this strange figure the next time he rode away. On the following morning, Marcel saddled his horse preparatory for a ride. Watching from the window as usual. he saw the strange knight ride into the forest. He quickly went to the stable, mounted his horse, and rode away in the same direction. As it was about an hour after sun- rise, the sun was glimmering through the forest casting long shadows which grew shorter and shorter as the sun PENNELL WHIRLPOOL neared the zenith. All about were the sounds of birds and the trickling of brooks. The horse’s path was paved with stretches of green grass, broken now and then by patches of pine spills. As Marcel rode on through the beau- tiful forest, it seemed that nothing but peace could reign over the land. Yet, why was this strange knight acting in this manner? Where would this path lead him? How could this knight be leaving the castle without the other knights learning of his presence? Chapter ITI A Clandestine Mecting Suddenly his thoughts were broken by the halting of his horse. Looking ahead he found that he was facing a rough country made up of thickets and cliffs. He dismounted to look for the tracks of the pursued knight. Pres- ently a horse neighed. Looking through the trees, he spied a horse hitched in a thicket. Quickly he led his own horse back a short distance. making him walk on stones as much as possible so he wouldn't be traced. Going up to where the other horse was hitched, he found a path leading up over the cliffs. After following this path for a short distance, it seemed to end abruptly. When Marcel stopped to look around, he heard Where were thev coming from? The voices did not sound distant but muffled. Putting his ear to the ground, he found the were coming from below. One of the men was saying: voices. sounds “There is to be only one more mect- ing. We must decide what is to be THE done. King Philip must be dethr oned at once. He is not a worthy king and should not sit on the throne. Have all the men together this afternoon. I will make the arrangements for our last meeting.” Chapter IV A Two-Horned Dilemma What shall I do?” thought Marcel. “I must tell the king about this.” He rose to go but bent his ear to the ground again as another voice broke in on the conversation. How natural that voice sounded! Could it be—? Yes, it was his father. It seemed im- possible that Saint Bernard, a noble knight, should stoop to such an act as this. What should Marcel do now? How could he remain loyal to the King and let this plot against his life be go- ing о ? On the other hand, how could he betray his father. He must either be disloyal to the King, or betray his father. How could his father who had taught him loyalty above all else be involved in such a lowly act? As he stood thus thinking. one of the stones near his feet began to move. Quickly he darted out of sight behind a rock. As he watched, a tall knight appeared, carefully replaced the stone and, after looking carefully around, went to his horse. After the knight had disappeared, Marcel went to his horse, mounted and rode thoughtfully back to the castle. Having reached the castle, he entered a room which was not fre- quently used. No one seemed to know what the room was for or why it was PENNELL WHIRLPOOL 11 used. This was what Marcel was wondering as he gazed about the room. The floor was made of beautiful marble. There were but few furnish- ings, and the walls were covered with draperies. As Marcel was wondering what he should do, he wandered about the room examining the draperies. Be- hind one of the draperies in a corner of the room, was a lever fastened to the wall. He pulled on it. Snap! A square of marble floor was lifted from its place in the center of the room. Marcel went to the center to examine the trap door. Underneath the floor was a large spring which was released at the touch of the lever. The spring pushed up the scuttle which was fitted so perfectly that it aroused no suspicion. There was a stairway leading down into a dungeon. Marcel descended the stairs. On reaching the bottom, the first thing that met his eves was a guillotine with its torturing knives. As he looked about the gloomy dungeon he saw the form of a man in the far corner. He was pale and thin from lack of food and sunlight. Marcel approached him slowly. After gazing at him a mo- ment, in astonishment he asked: “Who are you that you should be in this deserted place? “Т am the true King Philip of France , replied the prisoner. You are the King Philip? said Marcel, drawing back in amazement. Yes , replied the other, I am the true King Philip of France . But who sits upon the throne, now. pretending to be King Philip? 12 THE PENNELL “I will tell you the whole story”, replied the prisoner. “During my father’s reign, there was a great turmoil in France. The Catholic party resolved to dethrone him. My father’s death came sud- denly and unexpectedly. It was cus- tomary at that time for the King not to reveal his son to the public. Be- cause of this custom the people could easily be deceived as to who was his son. I was but fourteen years old. It was then that the Catholic party took the opportunity to seize me. To tell the truth, I know not whom is in my place as King Philip. Since that time which T think was about ten years ago. I have spent my days in this dungeon.” After a moment's pause, Marcel told him of his experience in the woods at the meeting. “Then I have a chance to get revenge and gain the throne which rightfully belongs to me , said Philip. “We must find a way out. Those men in the forest must be informed as to your discovery before they attack the castle. I have very little time , replied Marcel. “It is past midday and they plan to attack before sundown. Marcel quickly replaced the trap door, went to the stable, mounted his horse and rode into the forest. Chapter V Al Is Well That Ends Well Within the palace sat the King and Queen upon the throne. There seemed to be a rather gloomy atmos- phere about the room, as the King never spoke except to give commands WIIIRLPOOL and there was an ever abhoring look about his eyes. The Queen was young and beautiful. She never seemed to be happy. [n her heart she loathed the King as did everyone else. She, like most people. had been deceived as to who was the former King's rightful son. Marcel rode swiftly on through the forest. This time he had no time to admire the beauty of nature. All he heard was the wind whistling by his ears. Upon reaching the place of the meeting he removed the stone and descended the rough stone stairway. The men were gathered in a group within a rough cave. At the appear- ance of the boy they gasped in aston- ishment. His father came forward and demanded the cause of his pres- ence and how he had found his way there. Marcel told him the whole story. “Good”, replied the knights who could think of nothing else to say. “We must work out a plan for placing this man on the throne.” “T have worked out a plan while rid- ing through the woods”, said Marcel. “We will release Philip from his prison to-night. We will bring him before the false King in the morning and give him a chance to confess, and give him a chance to give the throne to its rightful owner. If he refuses, let your army of knights rush into the castle and force him from the throne.” You have a fine idea , answered Saint Bernard. “Get to your horses, men. We'll surround the castle before morning. I'll go before the King with the prisoner and give him a chance to THE PENNELL WHIRLPOOL 13 surrender. If he refuses, I’ll step out- side the castle and wave my hand three times above my head. At this signal you rush into the castle and attack the guards. Meanwhile, I'll free the pris- oner and talk with him.” After the castle had gone to rest, Marcel led his father to the trap door. He pulled the lever and the door flew open. They dared not use a torch be- cause they must not be seen by the guards. ‘They entered the gloomy and desolate dungeon. “Are vou here?” asked Marcel in а low voice. “Tam here , the corner. “Follow me and be very quiet.” They left the dungeon, closed the trap door, and retired for a few hours’ rest. Karly in the morning the knights were stationed about the castle. After the King had taken his place on the throne. Saint Bernard led the prisoner before him. At the sight of him the King's face turned scarlet. His under jaw dropped and his eyes appeared to be leaving his head. “Your looks betray you”, cried Saint Bernard. “Here is the real King. I give you your choice; give the throne to him or fight for it.” At first the King was too astonished to speak. But at last he gave the guards this command: Put these men in the dungeon.” Before they had a chance to move. Saint Bernard sprang to the door and waved his hand thrice. Quickly the knights rushed in and attacked the guards. The false ruler answered a voice from found that he was not well supported and his guards were easily overthrown. He was taken from the throne and bound hand and foot. What is to be done with Queen? shouted another knight. “Down with the Queen!“ “Hold!” shouted the new King. “The Queen is innocent of this false act. She is young and beautiful. If she desires, she will continue to be Oucen of France.” “Hail! Hail to our new King!” yelled the knights. “Hail! Hail to King Philip and Oueen Marie!” “Tout est bien, que finit bien”, sighed the Queen, settling down on the throne. For the first time since her first ascension to the throne she wore a happy countenance. HARLAND McPHERSON, '32. the IMPERIALISM IN THE UNITED STATES “Imperialism” is a term much used by students of government at the pres- ent time. What is “Imperialism” any- way? “The policy, practice, or ad- vocacy of seeking or acquiescing in the extension of control over dominion or empire or a nation as: (a) by the acquirement of new territory or de- pendencies, especially when lying out- side the nation's natural boundaries, or by extension of its rule over other na- tions and races of mankind, as where commerce demands the protection of the flag.” This is the formal defini- tion of the inclusive term. The United States is not by principle 14 THE an imperialistic country. By the Monroe Doctrine, our country pledged But has she lived up to that pledge? In this doctrine there is the paragraph: “With the existing colonies or depen- dencies of any European power we have not interfered nor will not inter- fere.” If when the United States went to war with Spain, she did not break this clause. then, I sav. the United States is not imperialistic. The country declared war with Spain in order to free Cuba from the clutches of the so-called “Cruel Spaniard”. However, it seems to me that under- neath there was a desire to get Porto Rico and other desirable possessions of Spain's fast diminishing domains. For what reason did the United States extend her flag to the Philip- pines? In order to explain the matter thoroughly, it is necessary to review the history from 1897 to 1905. Just before the Spanish-American war, thc countries of Europe were making “mincemeat” out of China. Each country was getting ninety-nine ycar leases on different parts of China, hop- ing that in time it would eventually get control of all the illiterate country. For the United States to seize a “sphere of influence in China” was repugnant to the traditional policy of the country, and would not have been acquiesced to bv the Senate. Vet, the occupation of the Philippines would give us a vantage point from which we could still have a decisive influence in the Orient. This matter was prob- ably given a great deal of considera- tion before war was declared. Is this herself not to be domineering. PENNELL WHIRLPOOL not, by the very meaning of the term, imperialism ? American missionaries went to Ha- waii. Later merchants exploited cof- fee and sugar plantations. A new Queen came to the throne and tried to overthrow the Constitution. A pro- visional government was s et up by the whites, and troops were landed to pro- tect the government. The Islands were proclaimed a part of the United States and the Senate voted them a part of our country in July. 1898. As a last example, Iet us take the Panama Canal The United States wanted the small strip of land. but Colombia would not give it up. Panama's ministers met with represen- tatives from the United States in a secret meeting, and the next evening a quiet revolution took place in Panama. We stationed boats off the order to prevent foreign troops from landing. Within one week, negotia- tions were completed and plans for the canal were under way. There is no direct evidence that this country was involved but there is circumstantial evidence. I do not mean to sav that I do not believe in imperialism, for I do to some extent. However. I believe that we should not carry the Monroe Doctrine and at the same time extend our power. If we are going to be imperialistic, let us drop the Monroe Doctrine; if not, let us live up to its principles.

How the earth revolve What will happen if our sun suddenly disappears? Scien- tists from the earliest ages to the great Einstein of modern times have tried to find a solution to these problems. Many complex theories have been will around the sun? long worked out by well known scientists. However, it less known scientist to find the correct was the fortune of a solution and to prove his predecessors were wrong in their various hypotheses. This man by careful re- search determined that our sun would vanish on May 12. 1935, at exactly 12.18 A.M. Central Standard time. His predictions were that. first, there would be complete darkness followed by intense cold. For an indefinite time the Earth float crazily through the heavens until destroyed by would some other heavenly body or attracted by another sun. ТЕ it were attracted by another sun of some other Galaxy. it would gradually begin to revolve in its new orbit. Then the conditions would be similar to those on Earth before the terrible catastrophe. Now the problem was, “How can I save my friends and family?” After deep study, he devised the following scheme. He decided to bore a shaft made of special alloy of steel deep into the ground. The place he selected was on the western plains of the United States. The scientist knew that the Marth would travel through space at such a rapid rate that it would be turned into a flaming mass. In other words, it would become a comet. Also as the Earth travelled through PENNELL WHIRLPOOL 15 the heavens, he feared immense pieces Therefore, at every fifty feet in this steel shaft, this genius placed bulkheads. When a section of the Earth would tear loose the bulkhead would drop and still keep them protected. At the bottom of the tube was an immense steel chamber. This was equipped with modern con- veniences; electric lights, heating and refrigerating systems, and also with oxygen cylinders and several tons of liquid air. With radium and a devise which he invented, he was able to see the conditions on any part of the Earth. Life was going on as usual when on Мах 12, 1935, at 12.18 A.M. there was darkness. The “modern Noah” gathered his friends and family into the steel chamber. He also took fishes and would drop off into space. instantaneous useful animals, plants. Provisions enough to last for a long time were stored in the chamber. Just as had been predicted. the Earth started floating crazily through the heavens. Soon it burst into flames and immense pieces began to drop off. The top of the steel shaft began to melt but a bulkhead dropped and they were protected. Through his radium invention he could follow the happen- ings on the surface. One day, the inhabitants of the chamber were frightened by a severe crash. The Earth had collided with the Moon. The speed of the Earth was slackened because it now had to drag the Moon with it. For weeks longer they whirled through space. Finally the people 16 THE PENNELL WHIRLPOOL began to feel the Earth slow down. Gradually, dim features of the Earth’s shell could be distinguished. Then small clouds began to form. Soon the days and nights became regular. The Earth had reached its new Sun. The adventurers soon ascended to the surface of the Earth. had begun. A new era SILAS FOSTER, '34. WHAT IS WOMAN? This guestion has puzzled man. Noted wisemen have deducted only theories. I am going to place before ‚уон all the obtainable data on this odd creature so that you, in vour leisure hours, may ponder and, by chance of luck, arrive at a definite conclusion. You might ask me why no one has been able to explain this freak of na- ture. To be exact, it is because she is the most independable biped in exist- ence. She does things not expected of her with no plausible reason. She will gossip about her best friends and then be as tight-lipped as a clam about those not so close to her. Sometimes she wishes to be in the lime-light and then again the moonlight is her choice. The Bible tells us that Eve was made froma rib of Adam's. Poor man, to think that he should lose his spare rib to bring about the existence of such an ungrateful rag-chewer as is the modern woman. Why couldn't the rib of a worm or jelly fish be used in- stead? Many a man wishes that he now had this rib to take the place of those broken by his wife. The only all round description that fits the average woman is one that a critic of this country made. The modern woman is exactly like a bunga- low, painted on the front, shingled on the back and has no upper story. Note: The writer has left for parts unknown (the usual case) for fear that the irresponsible sex might mistake his good intent for prejudice. However, if anyone wishes to tell the writer what she thinks about him (by correspond- ence only) she may place her spon- staneous missiles in the small loving- cup on the bookcase. An old faithful servant will see that they reach their destination. ANON.

For to bands of joyous children. Mv cool waters give delight. The sun goes down; the shadows fall. The children now have fled; Still I am not deserted, For the stars shine on my bed. PHYLLIS BARTON, '33. THE BEGINNING OF THE SNOWSHOE Once there were two Indians called the Oak and the Elm. The Oak was short, broad and very strong. The Elm was tall, slender and very strong THE also. They had received their names from the trees which they resembled. These two mighty hunters were rivals for the hand of the same girl. The girl’s father promised to give her to the one who should be victorious in a contest to be arranged bv him. There was a great deal of excitement in the Indian village. What could the contest be? Both the Oak and the Elm were strong; a fight would not decide the matter. hunters. Both were mighty Finally, the girl’s father said that he desired each of them to take a journey. In the dead of winter they were to travel to an Indian camp. This camp was a month's journey even in They were each to bring back a certain present to be given them at the camp. The girl whom the men admired fa- vored the Oak. The Elm, was determined to win. One day as he was watching a flock of ducks, he noticed that they did not sink in the snow. He decided that their web feet held them up. He thought, “If my feet were webbed like theirs, I would not sink in the snow either”. At last, he took a piece of ash and bending it double he formed frames over which he stretched skins. However, he found these to be too heavy. In order to overcome this difficulty, he cut holes in the skins. He found that by using this devise he could make rapid pro- gress over the snow. He kept his secret and when he started on his jour- ney he put his frames under his blan- ket. He let the Oak get a distance before he put on his frames. The next day was very stormy, and the Oak was awav summer. however, PENNELL WHIRLPOOL 17 obliged to make camp. But, the Elm still travelled о . At last, the Elm reached the Indian camp. He had arrived about two weeks before he was expected. All the Indians were puzzled. Elm showed his frame and helped them to construct some. He also improved his and was able to travel back even more rapidly. One bright morning, the girl was astonished to see coming over the snow. Elm. He was actually walking on the snow! How could it be? There was no crust. The Indians came running to greet him. The Elm described his invention. Soon all we re busy making these queer articles which enabled them to walk on the snow. They found that they could hunt more easily. The Elm received the girl as his bride. She now felt honored to be the wife of the inventor of this strange but useful device—the snowshoe.

A Debating Council was formed February 3, 1931, and the following officers werc elected: President, Har- land MePherson; Secretary and Treas- urer, Irene Potter. The Council has fourteen members this year. The members were divided into groups to study the auestion of Chain Stores. 18 THE PENNELL WHIRLPOOL Our coach, Miss Lancaster, finally de- cided that Margaret Loring and Ern- est Libby should debate on the nega- tive side of the question, while Alice Coffin and Harland McPherson should debate on the afirmative side. Phyllis Hancock was chosen to be the alter- nate for the negative and Warren Cole the alternate for the affirmative. The double victory of these teams over New Gloucester High School qualifies them to enter the semi-finals of the Bates League to be held at Bates. April 17. The negative team was de- feated by Berwick Academy and the affirmative team was defeated by Gould Academy.
