Q3 4'QQ 3,867 M2'?af322if-9' The Progress of the Samuel D. Hanson High School The first plans for a new high school in Buxton were made in 1887 when the people voted to establish a Free High School. Nothing was done, however, until the next year, when they raised a sum of money to start the school. The high school was made by raising the roof of the Buxton Center Grammar School building, and using the up- stairs for the high school. Mr. I.V.Smith, supervisor at the time, went around visiting the families and inquiring whether or not the boys and girls of high school-age would be interested. Finding enough interested, they opened the first high school, September 5,l8881 On opening day there were fifty-seven pupils, which was more than they could accomodate, so they brought in settees, until new desks could be provided. The first teacher was Mr. George Larrabee. The first year, instead of a graduation, they held a public examination at the school. The first gradu- ' ation Buxton High School ever had was in 1890, with only two pupils graduating, Everett Harmon and Will Cressey. In 1912 it was voted to build a better equipped school. They bought a piece of land, containing four acres, which was located on top of the hill, and started the building of it. In 1913 it was finished and ready for use. This new high school was considerably better than the old.

Hanson. This is the name by which it is known today. T The money was used for hiring teachers, furnishing ' school supplies, equipping a very modern laboratory, putting in electricity and furnishing the water supply. March 19,1950 disaster struck, when a fire broke out in the early morning. Having been discovered too late, everything was burned. Fifty thousand dollars was estim- ated to be the loss. The articles we lost can never be replaced. We lost the library, which was the finest of its size in Maine. Many reference and fiction books, the two cups won by the school in speaking contests, and the wonderfully equipped laboratory also were burned in the the fire. ' Since that fire, a new building has been built on same site, and is still called the Samuel D. Hanson High School. The cost of this building was 325,000. Our new building is a two story structure consisting of a cement basement in which are the laboratory and cafe- teria combined, and the boys' and girls' basements. The first floor has two classrooms, with large closets in ' each room, an office, and the trophy cabinet given by Mr. Isaac A. Clough, which contains many trophies. We have a wonderful movie projector and a large supply room. The second floor has the main assembly hall which seats sixty pupils. A stage is built into'the front of this room, which,when not used as a stage, ia a classroom.. There is also a library, containing many helpful and in- teresting books, and also we have upstairs a boys' cloak- room and a girls' cloakroom. The Alum i of our high school have been both faith- ful and generous in making it possible for tho school to be equipped with electric clocks.and boys' and girls' lockers and a pianos Recently an Agricultural Building has been added to the school. There is now an agricultural course for the boys. This building is located in the Bradbury Block. This new course has greatly benefited the citizens of B'L1.XtOI'1 o ' 4 We are proud of our school, and we know that it will prosper in the future as it has in the past. Gloria Fogg '48 .....U--....l......,..-.l.u.ls.-M -.l.....n-.N, ..-..........,.lii The Church of the Graduates For the past several years the graduations of the Buxton High School seniors have been held at the Con- gregational Church at Buxton Lower Cerner. This seems an ideal place for the last meeting of a class about to start out in the world. The church, with its historical background and old traditions,would give them encourage- ment and inspiration. ' Right after the French and Indian Wars, the people of the town had their first meeting and voted that there would be preaching, so that the inhabitants of the township would not be destitute of public worship of God. The first meetinghouse was built of logs. In 1760 it was voted to build a frame building on the present site'at Lower Corner, Ministers from churches in Bidde- ford, Wells, and Popperellboro assisted the people from Buxton in forming their church. The new church was to be a regular Congregational. For some years the church was without an underpinning and pulpit. Several ministers preached for them for a few months at a time the first ten years. Then a committee was ' chosen to ask Paul Coffin, son of Colonel Joseph Coffin, of Newbury, to settle among them and carry on the work of the ministry. He accepted the position and settled here. In doing so, he gave up a good career, because ' he had been well-educated in cultivated literary society. The little town, which he accepted as his own, boasted of only about thirty families, which had not a single educated parishioner. Reverend Paul Coffin preached here sixty years until his death on June 6, l82l.' Kate Douglas Wiggin, the famous Maine writer, attended this church. It was'this church which inspired her to write her famous story, nOld'Peabody Pewn. 'The Old Tory Hill Meetinghouse, with its historic past, which has stood on the little hill about 185 years still welcomes the young and old of Buxton. Beverly Harmon '46 Q 1? 95x f I I! ik . Q -Q' .

The public look forward to and turn out for the plays, which are'presented once or twice a'year. In past times three plays, consisting of one act, would be given in an evenirg ey the senior, junior and sophomore classes. The auditorium is the accepted place, in which the plays are held, but in those iimes'they would also be given at Groveville and West Buxton. Later in the year another dramatic skit would be given, which was termed as the senior play, as the proceeds benefited the senior class. This custom has been carried on until last year. Instead of the usual play, a minstrel show was presented. The great success onabled.us to play it twice. Another form of entertainment is the annual Public Speaking Contests, of which this yearfs contest will be the 52ndQ' The winners, who are chosen from the first contest, participate in the C.Y.C.L. Contest, as Buxton is a member of the Central York County League. Buxton has competed in this competition for thirteen years, making itself winner five different times. ' The musical programs of Buxton have been few, but have bonsisted of very good'material. Such was the Concert of Christmas Carols, presented at the auditor-' ium, December ll, 1952 under the direction of Mrs Hurd. Beginning in the year 1941, the combined glee clubs and orchestras of Buxton, Hollis, and Standish gave a May Concert, which continued for the next two years under the direction of Miss Abbie Harvey. As each year finishes, Baccalaureate Services are held at the Buxton Center Baptist Church and Graduation Exercises at the Tory Hill Church. The social life at Buxton now takes in a wider scope of recreation. The Freshman Picnic of former times has now been replaced by a Freshman Reception, held at'Buxton Grange Hall. Instead of the numerous parties, we find entertainment in our many dances. The outstanding dance of the year comes in May-the Junior Prom.' This has become an cccurince of the past two years. The one event which we observe from the former days is the Christmas Party. On the afternoon before Christmas vacation all students gather in the mainroom. Each class presents some kind of a comical dialogue, and then we turn to our tree, which holds a Wjoken present for all. ' As the years roll on, everyone finds more and more pleasure within the halls of Buxton High School. Joan Eaton '47 Sports Buxton has enjoyed athletics for a number of years. The sports offered are: basketball, softball, horse- shoes, and track. They joined the Central York County League in 1931. The league consists of Limerick, Limington, Cornish, Waterboro, Alfred, Hollis and Buxton. Contests are held in all the sports. A The track meet is usually held at the Cornish Fair Grounds in the spring with all schools participating in most every event. The school having the most points at the end of the meet wins the cup. Track is only played by the boys. In preceding years the girls have partic- ipated, but the state didn't approve, so softball was introduced for the girls. Softball is played by all the schools on the day of the track meet. The school win- ning the most games gets the cup. In horseshces there are preliminaries, and the winners in these have a chance to play in the finals. They are played off at one of the seven schools. ' The winter carnival is usually held in Limerick. Both boys and girls can participate. In preceding years the boys' and girls' points were counted together for the trophy,now the girls' aren't counted for it. There are several events in skiing and snowshoeing. The school having the highest score gets the trophy. Ribbons are given to the high scorers in each event at the dance held in the evening. The boy and girl getting the most points become king and queen of the dance. In basketball and baseball there are two games played with each school. The school winning the most games during the season is awarded the trophy. The town hall, known as the nwoodboxn, which is used by our basketball players for practice and games hinders their ability when they get into a large gym. lt.is hoped there will be a gym in a few years, making ' it more convenient for the players and spectators alike. lt is also hard for the baseball players to practice be- cause there isn't a centralized field. But even with these disadvantages there are many good sports, and they do their best to win. We are proud of them. Helen Carll '46 X . l 'x 8.--.............,.,,.,......,,,,,,.., ,,,, sm, ,,,, an ,, ,, s ,gl-, s N Characters-Alumni of '47 Place- Buxton High School Time- Year of '57 h Who said that there was nothing new-that Buxton never makes any changes? We, the Alumni of 1947, ' realize what a ridiculous statement this was, for now in 1957 we see before us so many wonderful changes--it is hard to believe that this is the Samuel D. Hanson High School. Before we tabulate the many changes and im- provements, let us not forget that these changes have come about through the far-seeing and progressiveness of' the people of the Town of Buxton. They realized that we, the students of Samuel D. Hanson High School, were the future generation of the townspeople and what was all right for them was obsolete for their children and grandchildren. Only the best was good enough for them. In 1957 students have the opportunity of attend- ing the high school you now see before youu-in which you will find discussion groups where each pupil is urged to' give his ideas, desires, and contributions to the future. Yes, your eyes are telling you the truth--this is the new auditorium and gymnasium combined--isn't it a dandy?' Here some of the finest school plays have been acted out, the best prize speakers have spoken, the'most interesting lectures have been heard and movies seen, and, of course, some of the most exciting basketball games have been played. The students hold their dances here too. That building over there is our Home Economics and Manuel Training Building. The lower part is for manuel training and the upstairs is for home economics. and the cafeteria combined. The girls have put on several luncheons and fashion shows in the auditorium for the townspeople. The fellows have given exhibitions of their projects. Welre really proud of this building. Last, but not least, this is our laboratory which now covers the space of the old cafeteria. Yes, it's in' the same place only a little larger and so well equipped. The students have made their own individual dissecting pans and are furnished with microscopes for every five students. You'd be surprised at the increase in the en- rollment for science class since new equipment has been added, ' Well, what do you think of it?-- you bet that wig a silly statement that there's nothing new--Buxton never makes any changes.

DE PA K T M E N T N E W S Our Agriculture Department is still growing. JWe are one of the few schools having any shop equipment as a donation from the Army Air forces First Service Com- mand. This machinery, which was used on Army Government Contractsin defense plants, has been declared surplus and is awarded to schools on a gift basis if the schools can make good use of it and will keep it in good repair. To date, we have acquired an avey 2-spindle drill- ing machine. A Lincoln 200 ampere portable electric welder has been awarded to the department, but as yet has not arrivedz This increases the usefulness of our shop materially, and it is doubtful if we could afford to buy machinery of this type and quality on the market. The equipment was procured through the efforts of Mr. Shipman, the Agriculture teacher, and he has been assured that we will receive more equipment as it be- comes available. The value of this newly acquired equip ment is approximately 151800, Schools not having a voc- ational shop course are not eligible to receive this equipment. ' The Lead Industries Association is a group of lead and lead products manufacturers. They have made up a number of paint study cabinets for use in teaching painting to vocational agriculture students. One of these cabinets has been given to our department entirely free and has been used in instructing the students in the use, preparation and selection of paint and painting materials. This cabinet contains all important materials used in paint manufacture. Also included are materials for carrying out experiments with paint to determine their relative value and quality, This painting instruction has been received with a great deal of enthusiasm by the students. :. -. .-f- -QLJLQLQL Cl-IE'-d:'21fi...' 3 M' 'E KS B U X T O N RAHi RAH8 RAHI shouted the en- thusiastic cheerleaders.

There were fourteen girls who went out for the sport this season, only two of whom were experienced players. With plenty of hard work and the backing of their friends, they produced A team that was hard to beat. During the season many of the girls were out because of sickness. This did not stop them, however, because there was always the second team to fall back on. They just loved the chance to get in ther there and fight. This season the girls played twelvo.games. They won nine and lost three. Although total victory was not theirs, they did a fine job of bringing home their share of the games. !2!:l'.E..

ANERICA MUST BE PREPARED AMERICAN LEGION PRIZE ESSAY FOR 1945 Beverly Harmon '46 America is in the midst of another great war. A long hard war, that is costing us thousands of our best American men, and billions of American dollars, and again we are saying, nThis must not happen againln. Yet it will happen again unless we are prepared. We should participate actively in an international organization for peace. 'And that is one of the best reasons for preparedness. Our influence in any inter- national league for peace will be directly proportionate to our armed strength. Such a league will have a much better chance of success if backed by powerg power that is ready to be lashed on the instant. That is the only way to secure the world peace Americans desire and now have a splendid chance to establish. ' Army and Navy leaders argue that, if any aggressor again attempts world conquest, this nation will be attached first of all. We shall be hit suddenly by surprise and hard. We can never again expect that other nations will take the first shock and hold off the enemy until we can arm, ' The reason is plain. We have twice shown the world that we have greater war power than any other nation on earth when given time to mobilize it. So a future aggressoris first goal must be to crush us before he attacks anyone elseg and not give us what we have always needed--time. ' Such a blow has become possible. We are no longer out of reach. Todayis airplanes cross oceans on routine trips. Tomorrow the B-29, which can drop a bomb load on targets one thousand miles distant and come heme, will be replaced by planes with much longer range, drop- ping more powerful bombs. Planes dragging gliders laden with airborne troops will be able to fly from Europe or Asia and land men to seize Pittsburg steel mills or Mississippi River bridges. In the future are improved invasion craft which could land troops and supplies on our coasts. There will be robot'bombs of increased ' power, longer range and accuracy, launched from planes, from'carriers, from islands, perhaps even from contin- ents. We may be struck out of the blue by lightnings we did not know existed. Jur geographical position can no longer be considered a protection. Therefore in the years to come America must be pre- pared. We must never again invite attack by scrapping half our Navy and most of our Army or skimping on our airforce to one hundred planes a year, as we did before .59 this war. We need not, and should not, remain armed to ' the teeth. We shall need a peacetime force, streamlined, modern, designed to meet the next emergency, not the last one.' To be sure we can do it, we need not the big- gest army, navy, and air force, but the most modern, most powerful, and the most ready for action. First we must keep and improve our air force. The front line now is the bomber line. We should push it out as far as possible to protect the home front. Probably the best single way to discourage aggression will be to possess the wor1d's finest air force. Not the world's biggest but its most up-to-date. Five thousand of yesterday's planes do not equal one thousand of today's. And todayis planes will be as obsolete tomorrow. Our airforce must always be ready to take off with better planes and fliers than anyone else has, if only because of the great distances we must cover. We must protect not only our cities but our bases and our sea and air trade routes. Thus far, the best defense against robot bombs is an air force that can smash the installations that launch and manufacture them. The Army Air Force is - planning a postwar experimental program, to insure con- tinued superiorityof aircraft design. It also plans support of the airframe and aircraft-engine industriosg there can be no air force if they are starved in peace- time. We should encourage private flying and air'trans- port. Since air power is not only planes but men, planes should be supplied to schools to train youths to fly. Carriers and carrier-borne planes are growing larger. They will be used not only to bomb the enemy but to spy him out for the task forces at every major base that is to be always ready, like a fire department, to dash to the danger zone. Next, we should have the strongest, though not necessarily the largest, Navy. We should realize this more than ever now with the big battle going on in the Pacific. Our Navy has just done a thorough job in the Philippines. It has been days of defeat and despair for the Japanese who desperately dared to challenge American supremacy on the high seas. Our Navy was not always as strong as this, because a few years back there were leaders who tried hard to keep our fleet cut down, because they said it would be inviting a war if we kept a navy larger than other countries. Navy man who wanted a navy second-to-none for the United States had to fight constantly to win the appropriations needed to keep even our pre-Pearl Harbor Fleet up to treaty strength and fitness. Now Americans AQ 0 will understand their Navy's worth and its vital import- ance to our country in time of war, . It is foreseen that our peacetime Navy must police the entire Pacific Ocean and the Western At1antic.,It would not be necessary to keep all the present vast fleet, which equals the fleets of all other nations comp bined, We would scrap some of the small vessels and landingtcraft but-drememboring 1922's hard lesson--we would not scrap a single fighting ship. We should keep active a,fleet with three times the strength of our whole Navy before Pearl Harbor. The ships will be built to hit harder and take more punishment from shelly torpedo, or bomb than any fleet afloat. With the return of peace, those who used to ad- vocate the reduction of the Navy to mere 'token' strength will renet their clamor. Let us be prepared for them another time. Let us stand by this great Navy ef ours and keep it, for all time, a nNavy second-to-noneu. Also we need a strong, trained shall believes that our army of the strong enough to instantly crush an until our reserve that, to hold him Above all we Pearl Harbor when filled the Yankee enemy we will not Army.

After training, these young men would be reservists, ready requires it. to return to active duty if emergency This would give us a strong army that knew its stuff in two months, not two years as before. 'In five years the nation would h ve Q reserve of 5,000,000 trained men. It is believed that had we possessed such a reserve in 1941, we would not have been attacked. Therefore it seems incredible, though it is true, that even today, sincere, patriotic Americans oppose universal training for America!! young men after this War J Every war in ly unprepared. Thus survived in spite our Allies in Europe aged to hold off our American history has found us complete- far, we have blundered through and ourselves.

He lived there with his little mistress. Nearby there was a convent, a house where many nuns lived. Outside the door hung a rope that was fastened to a bell. One day the little dog was wandering near the convent when he saw a poor beggar pull the cord and ring the bell. A good nun came to the door, and opening it, handed a bowl of soup and a plate of meat to the beggar. The little dog went up to the beggar hoping that he would receive something to eat. But away. The dog then went searching for the rope much noise, but one of opened it. She looked the beggar only chased the dog to the door of the convent and tugged at lt. It did not make the nuns came to the door and about but saw no one. She went back into the convent and shut the door. The dog rang the bell again, and the nun came to the door, but again she saw no one. This time the nun sat near the window so that she could see the door. She watched and was surprised to see the dog reach up and pull the bell cond. Since she felt sorry for the poor dog, she brought a dish ef meat to him. One day, after he had eaten his dinner, the nuns packed a basket, and putting the handle in his mouth, told him to take it to his mistress. That day the dog and his mistress had a fine meal. -It X Virginia Waterman '47 JL Friendship Friendship is more precious than goldg Friendship is something that should never be sold.

Gwendolyn Ranks '48 ln, -.m. ----H-sl.mll-......A5 Accidents Will Happen Meredith and Marcia Martin occupied a small, cozy, suburban hpuse in the residential section of Poplar City. Meredith and his wife were in view of their third wed- ding anniversary with happiness still filling the great- er part of their life. Marcia was the all-round, ever- willing type of person. During the distressing days of the war, she busied herself with the endless tasks which had confronted hor in the Red Cross and other mercy units New that peace had come again, Meredith was looking Epr a raise in his job at the office. A ' ' But despite all this, it was again Saturday, so he would have to leave his luxurious feather bed and get up in time to catch the seven oicloek bus into the city, be- cause today was shopping day for Marcia, and she would need the car. He welcomed the scent of frying bacon and eggs as he descended the stairs. At breakfast they discussed the plans of the day. Marcia would be unable to have dinner with him as elder- ly Mrs. Gray was going to town with her and had to return by one oiclock. Therefore all their time would have te be used for shopping. As the hands of the clock ap- proached their objective, Meredith hastily left for the bus, and Marcia prepared for her trip to the city. After a detailed morning, Meredith found it a pleasure to hear the clock aloft the City Hall strike twelve. Aderning his top coat, he stepped into the brisk wind,as he made his way uptown. He knew a small, unobserved place down on the far end of West Street which would not be crowded, even at this hour. It didn't take him long to reach his destination, as he was nearly famishod. But, as he stepped from the curb into the street, he saw a car bearing down upon him. By quick thinking he escaped being run ovcr,, but he was knocked down and received a few bruises, otherwise he was unhurt. Although this was the case, he muttered outrageously against the driver of the vehicle to a policeman that had just come out of the restaurant. Such were his re- marks: HDumb people who canft drive a car any better than that! Ought to be jailed! No respect for the common manlu The policeman soothed his retorts with the words, NWe'1l go see this driver and give him a little advice.n When they approached the car, Meredith, still mut- tering and brushing off his suit, took time to look at the reckless driver. His eyes met those of his wife.

Every day when weather permitted, B-l7's would leave the green fields of England to go to bomb Germany. Among these planes was one called The Ball of Fire When on a mission, tho Ball of Fire went over its target, dropped its bombs, and turned around and headed home. Technical Sergeant Aaron Moses at his gun position watched the puffs of smoke glow in the sky. Off in the distance he saw enemy planes. While the fighting was going on between the fighters and the bombers, one of the enemyis bullets pierced a hole in one of the gas lines. The pilot radioed the sergeant and told him to find the hole in the line, or they wouldn't have enough gas to reach England. So he left his position and start- ed to hunt for the hole. It wasnit hard to find, because gas was spouting up from the floor of the plane. He took a pencil and stuck it in the hole, but the pressure forced it out. Then he stick a rag in the hole, and that also was forced out. No matter what he put in the hole, it was always forced out. Finally, he remembered the story of how the Dutch boy stuck his finger in the hole to hold the sea back, so he stuck his finger into the gasoline. He could feel almost instantly that his finger was getting cold because of the cold gasoline and steel. When they were over the English Channel his whole arm and shoulder were numb. While he had his finger in the hole, he thought of the eight lives that were depending upon him. When they did reach the English base and had landed, he pulled his finger out, and about a pint of gas poured forth. Then he realized that by his action he had brought them all to safety. Roger Betts '49 45 My Idea of a Winter's Day Getting up after a night's storm is usually a plea- sant sight. The trees are sometimes loaded with snow, house tops are freshly laden and icicles which are hang- ing from the eaves are very beautiful as they melt by the rays of the sun. There is pure white snow as far as the eye can see, and hardly a track to be seen upon it. When the sun shines very brightly on the snow, it is beautiful to see the sparkling crystals flash back and forth. The crust is crystslized and flashing, but underneath it there is usually a light powdery material. The sky is very clear,and the temperature is mild after a snowstorm. Drifts are found where a path had beeng the steps are covered with a light dry snow,and the trees are waving their branches trying their best to shed their winter coat. The chimneys of different houses in a neighborhood cast forth light clouds of smoke which shows that the people are up to shovel paths and to get ready for a big Cllljfg After the paths are'shoveled and the treo tops have shed their coats of snow, the day begins to be dull. The snow melts faster and faster, and by noon-time there is very little left.

The story must be true and must be something that really happened at Stony Brook Farm when Grandma was a little girl like Betty. One story which they never tired of was HChristmas at Our Housen. Betty and Leo would sit very quietly in front of Grandma, hardly moving until the story was finished. This was the story as Grandma told it: I wish I could take you children to see Stony Brook Farm, where I was born and spent all the years of my childhood. It was such a beautiful spot. The house stood an a hill overlooking a valley through which ran a brook. All along the banks grew birch and oak trees. Your great-uncle Bill and great-aunt Lizzy and I have played under those trees and fished in that brook days without number. The summers were wonderful on the farm, but I think the time we enjoyed most of all the year was Christmas. As early as the middle of December we began to watch for Santa Claus, and each day we would add new requests to our lists, which we addressed to Santa and put on the mantle over the fireplace in the large living.reom. How excited we would be next morning to find our notes had disappeared mysteriously. Sometimes we would find a few pieces of candy which was positive proof that Santa was not far eff. How good we tried to be those last days before Christmasl About two days before Christmas Mother would sug- gest that Father get the tree and fix a good firm base and set it up in one corner of the living room. We children would dress warmly and trudge behind Father in- to the woods, feeling very important as we helped decide on which should be the honored tree. We popped corn and made long strings of it--and be- ing the oldest child I learned to make bright paper chains which added greatly to the color. Each year we decided that the tree was the prettiest we had ever had. Christmas Eve we knew what was expected of us, and so we hurried off to bed full of excitement and hardly able to wait until morning to behold our beautiful tree. If ever such a thought as peeking entered our heads, we were ashamed to admit it. ' Very early Christmas morning Billy and Lizzy and I would jump out of bed and hardly touch the stairs as we bounded down into the living room. Just one glance was enough to convince us that it was the loveliest tree we had ever seen, u 41 How impatient we were for breakfast to be over! We would all gather around the tree while Father took the gifts off and presented them. Oh, how happy we were when Father would pass to each one the very gift he had wanted most, and what a wonderful man we thought Santa must be because he made n no mistakes, , u 4 As Grandma drew her story to a close, she noticed four sleepy little eyes, and she knew that soon two happy children would be tucked into bed and dreaming of Santa and Christmasptrees.

It was in the hills of old Kentucky where my great, great grandfather lived. My grandfather's name was Henry Spitcz, but we called him WJbeW. Joe was tall and dark, and he had a beard that hung to his chest. His cabin was in the lowest valley in the mountains It's name was Skinny Valley. His cabin was made of logs In it there was nothing but a few bunks, some chairs and a table, and Old Mother Hubbard's grendmother's cupboard filled with dishes. I I I wont down to visit Joe in 1866. I can just re- member. I got there before he got back from the Givil War.' As I remember, he had gotten a leg blown off in the Battle of Gettysburg.

Barbara Betts '46 eeesaseeee esssaeeeae eaeees ' eeeeaseeee Making a Friend Jim had been in Alaska several years working for a lumber company. He traveled around a great deal. He had just returned from a long trip over ice and snow by dog sled. One morning, while having breakfast in his cabin, a native came in. He told Jim about a wild dog that several of the natives had seon roaming around their camps and in the woods. It was a big dog with sil ver fur. They had all tried to capture him, because he looked like a good dog for their teams. None of them had succeeded in getting near him. He would disappear so fast and looked so silvery white that they were begin ning to call him a ghost. Because the natives were sup- erstitious, they were getting frightened of him and were trying to scare him away. All this talk made Jim inter- ested, so he decided to see the dog for himself. Jim spent several days traveling through the woods, but he didn't even get a glimpse of the dog. One night, after he had gone to bed, he was awakened by his dogs barking and making a great commotion. He get up and went outside. There, standing like a silvery ghost in the moonlight, was the wild dog. The dog stood still looking at Jim for several minutes and then dashed into the woods. 55 The next day Jim had decided to try to capture the beautiful animal. He spent a day making a trapwstrong enough to hold the big dog. It was nearly a week before the wise dog was caught in it. Then Jim tied him secure ly and took him home. After feeding and watering him for several days, the dog'would let him pat his head. In a month they were good friends, and Jim let him run free. The dog would be gone several hours, but he alway returned. Jim called the dog Husky and made him load dog on his team.

Beverly Harmon '46 ai Spring This time of year could well be called nThe Awaken- ingn for such is th action'that takes place.b The pussy willows, mayflowers, croeus, and the jonquils, delight- ful phenomena of Spring, are at this time either thrust- ing themselves through the sun-warmed sell or taking a peek at the newly polished earth. ' The buds on the trees are also curious, so they plead with their winter coats to release them for a glimpse of the brillant world. Replenishing and renewing the life of these unique favors of Nature are the spring showers. They daintily purify and christen the areas and spaces upon which they fall. Their life-giving ability to Nature's pattern of loveliness far exceeds anything known to man.today. The sun itself gives forth with all its ahcient splendor. Flowing from its height onto earth, it is eagerly drunk in by the aroused spring enthusiasts, With this happening all around, the animals, young and old, can no longer stay in their hibernal homes, but with a leap and bound find themselves in the fairyland of Spring. The birds return from the sunny South to a far pleasanter warmth--the sublime and beautiful warmth of a world dazzled by Springtimel Joan Eaton '47 u JL 'L V J' JL JL n 7x 7? n' 4. n Our High School Days Are O'er Weive enjoyed our four years at An education is something money Teachers don't pass out rank as But the knowledge acquired will It's going to seem strange when fall With none of us there to gather We can all of us any welve had 1 Buxton can't buy. one would candy, come in handy. school starts next in the halls. ots of fun, done.

The boys wouldn't let him go fishing with them, and he wanted to go very badly. But the boys were all larger than Dan, and they just wouldn't pay any atten- tion to him unless they wanted him to do something for thGme Today, however, Dan rcbelled. He decided he would go fishing without any help from the rest of the gang. He knew how to dig for bait--hadn't the kids made him do that every time they went fishing? And as for baiting ' the'hook and taking the fish off, that is if he caught any, he knew how to do that,too. Sure, he'd go fishing by himself today and-who knows- maybe he'd catch some to take home to his mother for supper. Dan started for the river shortly after the other kids had gone, and, in no time at all, he was enjoying himself sitting on the river bank and fishing for dear 0 It was about half an hour later after Dan had ' caught some fish when he heard Jim, one of the Sang, A yelling for help. -It sounded as though it came from a- round the bend. Dan dropped his fishing-rod and ran as fast as he could toward the bend. As he rounded it, he could see Jim in the river trying to get to the shore. It took Dan scarcely anytime-even as small as he was- to swim to Jim and help him get to shore. By this time the rest of the gang had come and en- couraged Dan. They yelled at him to keep coming, and when Dan and Jim reached shore, the gang helped both of thiimo The kids praised Dan, but he didn't want any praise. He told them he was going back to his fishing, and all the boys agreed that he could go fishing with them from then on whenever he wanted to. This made Dan happy, and he felt even happier when they said he wouldn't have to dig for the bait either. Barbara Betts '46 :L-uw' Muna v v :uf v. - :f - sf .-ann: .. 1. .. 1:-F. .. .. ,. wed?
