XYL ALA Y, 1027 No. 1 OUR NEW HIGH SCHOOI. BUILOINC At a school banquet some four years ago, one of the Alumni gave a short talk on the High School he would like to sen in Scar boro. The theme was worked out as based upon a vision. At the time 1 thought it must be very line to have such optical il lusions as to he able to change our old nigh School into such a great, beautiful building as he described. X T ow there is no need to dream nr imagine such a place, for it has by magic become an actual reality. To emphasize my point that it is real, 1 wish to describe it fully that you may have an opportunity to appreciate it with us, who for a time arc privileged to occupy it. The new building is a two-story brick- structure, with stone trimmings in Georgian style, situated some distance in from the state road at Oak Hill. The set ting is very pleasing because of the sturdy pines to the rear and left of the structure. It was constructed to meet nil the re¬ quirements as to heating, lighting, and ventilating of the state board of education, therefore you find it a very modern building. The entire lot consists of six and one half acres with a frontage of three hundred and fifty feet. This extra ground may be suitably turned into an athletic field, fur¬ nishing ample space for outdoor exercises. 6 THE POUR CORKERS Across tho front of the ground floor are the manual training room and domestic science kitchen. When at last these rooms are equipped. Scarboro will probably chal¬ lenge some other schools to compete with her cooks and carpenters. Toilets for both bo vs and girls are situated on this floor, also the heating plant. Located in the con tral rear of this same floor is the gym¬ nasium, sixty bv thirty-five feet, the mini¬ mum size for a standard basketball court. Already the eager throngs who have occu¬ pied the bleacher seats have cheered enough to well initiate this part of the building. On the main floor let us conduct you through the right-hand door, girls; the first room to the right is the French and History room, with a seating capacity of thirty-five. The next door on the same side is the Latin and English room, just u bit larger, where Casar ' s wars and Shake¬ speare weird Macbeth are the tonic of sluggish minds. The girls ' wardrobe is directly beyond this door. Xow turn and go down, turn to the right and the first door is the assembly hall, with a spacious stage at this end and ample room for book¬ cases at the opposite end. This is directly above the gymnasium and the same size. The prize speakers have already tested the acoustic qualities of this room. .Now let’s go out the same door and di¬ rectly opposite the corridor is the princi¬ pal ' s office, although it holds no terror for us as yet. Continuing on that same side of tlie corridor the next room is a recitation room not yet needed. A few paces farther along we encounter the door to the teachers ' room and rest room when needed. The next door on our ro ute is the boys on trance dc� or. which opens directly into their wardrobe off the corridor, as does the girls, .lust a couple steps beyond tho entrance is another room, furnished with a table and comfortable chairs, a real club room. I he school ' s trophies occupy their royal places over the mantel. Upon leaving this room we go directly forward toward the boys ' wardrobe and then the door on our left opens into a cosy typewriting room, which in turn is connected with the business room, as yet occupied only by empty chairs and no possible ghosts or memories. This opens just a stop below the boys wardrobe. The upper floor in the central front al¬ ready boasts a real laboratory equipped so far with three experiment tables and one demonstration table. The adjoining room may be used as a sewing room. Un¬ doubtedly three years hence will find this room fill oil with wonderful garments for Cinderellas. This is our new building and, if any one should wish a guide to conduct him or her over the whole building, any of the stu¬ dents would he pleased to serve as escort and informant. TEAM WORK Team Work on the athletic field, in the schoolroom, in business or in private life, is the basis of the best work that can be accomplished. Team work in brief is a THE FOUR CORNERS 7 spirit of co-operation nncl co-ordination. Without it. success cannot be obtained in any enterprise. Perhaps the greatest illustration of team work can be shown in athletics. Team work not only refers to co-operation among the players during an athletic contest, but refers to the entire student body. How many times we hear this expression or a similar one among disgruntled students: “Tun not going out for the team any more, the coach plays favorites. I’m better than so and so, but he doesn’t give me half a chance. I will never make the team or get into a game. I’m through.” Tt is very evident that any student who thinks that has no true conception of team work or school spirit. There arc a few stu¬ dents in every school throughout the country who think the same. They enter various athletic contests and try to make the “Varsity.” At first they practice faith¬ fully, then gradually they become dissatis¬ fied because they arc not picked for the first team and finally drop practice. What would happen if every player who did not make the team did the same? There wouldn’t he a team to represent the school if this happened. Tt is the subs, or second team, which is one of the most im¬ portant “cogs” in the success of any ath¬ letic contest. Without the subs the first team would not be able to practice and de¬ velop team play. It is the players on the first team who get the credit for winning games, and they deserve the credit that is given them, but let us not forget that it is the subs who deserve much of the applause. If only the disappointed students who fail to make the team would keep this in mind, 1. know that they would not drop out. If wc can only arrive at the proper con¬ ception of team work and learn to co-oper¬ ate in whatever task we undertake, we are on the right road to success and happiness. APPRECIATION OF S. H. S. STUDENTS A year ago architects were submitting plans for a new Scarboro High School. When we knew that there really was to be an actual fulfillment of our hopes, wc were just dazed with joy. Today we are in that new building and proud to say that we go to Scarboro High, the most wonderful building anywhere around. Yet, friends, if you hadn’t given and sacrificed so much, we fully realize that there would be no building and equipment for us to enjoy. And it is for this reason that we, the present occupants of the school house, wish to express our utmost apprecia¬ tion to all organizations and individuals who have so unstintingly given—given to¬ ward the rearing of such a fine structure and the furnishing. We have not space to record separately the names of all who have so gladly aided us, not only in giving money, but those who have given so many days of their services. Then there are those who have made other donations, such .as the one hundred lockers given by the Y. M. C. A., and the clock s THE FOUR CORNERS which Mr. Louis Peterson of the Class of 1S9.1 lias presented us to he installed in the assembly room. Anti it is to these and to all others who have exhibited their been interest in the welfare of Sear boro High School and its students, we wish to extend our most sincere thanks. -a- The Scarhoro Civic League, which was organized two years ago by the ladies of Scarhoro, has been untiring in its tine work of aiding 11 s to equip our high school. The league members have taken a groat in¬ terest in the schools of Scarlwro and partic¬ ularly in this splendid new high school. Already very definite testimonials of their laliors may he seen in the form of shades for all the windows, and a demonstration table in our laboratory. Now they work to equip the domestic science room, which is as yet without adornment. We. as a school body, would like to ex press our sincere appreciation for their active interest in the welfare of our building. • � There is another group to whom we are greatly indebted and they are the Alumni. It would be more difficult to point out the sjjecitic articles which they have presented, for their money has gone into the athletic fund for equipping the gymnasium. Each person belonging to the Alumni ranks has whole-heartedly joined forces and made each dance a success, a difficult proposition should you ask a Senior. Ami to them we extend our most hearty thanks for their co-operation and aid. Possibly tliis would be an opportune place to mention the fact that the Alumni have reorganized and now have active, wide-awake officers who will keep it a live society with the support of the members. Any Alumnus or Alumna who has not as yet joined the organization would gladly receive his or her membership card, so do not delay. Along with the general Alumni, we wish to make especial mention of the Class of 1920. The members of this class have lost none of their class spirit, for three very successful dances were given by them and the proceeds went to equip the gymnasium. The screens and back boards are the most visible evidences. And it is to them that we also desire to express our appreciation. Another organization open to Alumna? is the Triple A. The chief purpose of this body is 10 promote athletics, sports of all kinds, and good fellowship. Also the mem¬ bers are interested in furnishing athletic equipment for the new high school. Anyone desiring to join with the above group may notify Alisa Mabel Nielsen. An enjoyable Valentine party was one of rhe first means to initiate new members. The students of Scarhoro High School wish to thank their friends and advertisers most heartily for their aid and loyal sup¬ port- which has made it possible for this issue of the Font Cuhxkiis to bo published. We request that our readers patronize those who have advertised in these columns.

THE BUSINESS MAN OF 1950 1 am a building contractor; mv place of business is in Now York, and mv homo i fifty miles outside ilio city. In the morn ing I iisc at fi. ' JO o’clock, have mv break¬ fast. call for mv car and. while it is being brought. I dress in mv riding clothes. My car is a “land-air-mobile.” which capable r.f traveling m the land ami in the air. It 1ms a very small motor which is air ax;k d and uses gas only when heinu started. After it is started the motor will travel at a tremendous speed, which o.in he governed bv discharging air in slacken its sj� ced, and allowing it air when one wishes to go faster. The motor makes ab¬ solutely no noise . The body is a Ysh pe l affair, scaling three people, two in the from seat and one in the rear, it also has three wheels, two on front under the en¬ gine, and one behind, just back of the rear seat. When one wishes to travel in ihe air all he has to do is press a bu tton on the dashboard and the wings pul themselves in place, which, while traveling on land, were folded back beside the body. This car will travel at the rate of two hundred miles per hour in the air. and one hundred miles per hour nil land. W hen mv car is brought 1 climb in front because I myself drive, and purring it in gear drive H As 1 am early 1 deride to stay on land and see some of the houses that 1 am building. I drive along al about ninety miles an hour ove r the reiatl. This toad is of cement, wide enough for five ears to go abreast. As 1 near the city T push the button on the dashboard and the wings adjust themselves and I mount to the air. 1 go up and up over the skyscrapers. As 1 near my office I land on rho top of the building where there are already a lot of cars parked. I take the elevator down to toy Hour where I get off. Walking into my office, my office hoy calls me to the wireless telephone to speak with a man in England who wants me to build for him two aerial poles seven hundred feet high, so as to be our of the way of interference. lie tells me what he will pay and 1 accept the job. promising to be over the next day to build them. I have a dirigible about twice the THE POUR CORNERS 13 size of the “Shenandoah” with which I transport my work material. It takes about fifteen hours to cross the ocean. I sit down at my desk to open the mail. ! employ one stenographer to take dicta¬ tion. I press an electric button and she enters, pushing a small stand on which there is a kind of small dictaphone, at- taelied to the hack of which there is a small typewriter. She takes a seat and I begin to dictate letters. All that she does is to adjust a paper in the typewriter. I speak into a horn and by means of a lot of ma¬ chinery my words are written on a paper. My dictating is done and it is noon, then 1 eat my lunch and, taking my “air-land- mobile and look over a large building be¬ ing built by my men. I gave orders to have the “Bug” loaded, that is the name of my dirigible. It is loaded with some cement, mixers, and men to do the work, and then started on its way at about three o ' clock. The men will sleep during the night and be ready to work in the morning when they land. I go back to the office, receive a few business calls and then leave for home. After I have had my dinner, I go into the living room, tunc in on the radio and get some music. Feeling as though 1 should like some moving pictures, I turn on my “aerial picture machine.” This is something like the radio, as you can receive pictures over the air. These pictures are like the movies, they come on a large plate. When I have succeeded in finding a good picture I sit in my armchair and listen to music and see the picture “A Connecti¬ cut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court,” just as well as though I were in a theater. I am thirty years of age and can remem¬ ber back in 1027 when there was just the radio, and father thought it marvelous when the first picture was sent over the siir. It was just one picture. Now, if we can’t tunc in and get a moving picture, we shut it off. Before I die I believe that roads and bridges will be done away with in the country and they will have three tiers of elevated streets in the large cities. Such is the rapid advance of science and the great increase in population. S. W. P., 29. A THUNDER STORM It had been a very hot day and every¬ thing seemed as if it were dead. It came along five o’clock and I went to supper and after supper T went out. [ thought I would go in swimming, so I took my bicycle and went up to the pond. I went in and the water was certainly swell. I had never been in when it was any warmer. All at once I looked up and noticed it was getting dark in the west. Pretty soon the sky was a black mass, and the wind began to blow. The big pine trees over my head began to bend; I thought they were surely going to break. I got out of the water as soon as I could, but it seemed as if I could not get any of my clothes on right. I got my shoes on the wrong feet and my trousers on inside out, but never noticed the difference until I got 14 THE FOUR CORNERS half way home. There T was. riding down the street with my pockets hanging ont. I had just got about half way home when it began to rain. How it did rain ! Every drop looked, or rather 1 mean felt, as big as a quarter. The air was ablaze with lightning. The thunder roared like great cannons. If I ever rode fast I did it that time. It was dark when I got home that night. When I went into the house Mother said I would have to go to the store and get some candies, for the electric lights were out. I ran to the store and everybody in there was crawling around with a candle. I got some candles and went home. It was still raining as hard as it eonld. And such lightning I never saw or hope to see again. The wind was blowing about one hun¬ dred and twenty miles an hour. I guess. It blew down signs and trees. After about an hour of the storm the alarm went around that there was a fire up on one of the back roads. The lightning had struck a barn. My father said to me, “Do you want to go U I said, “No. I have had enough for one day. ,? The whole earth seemed to l)e afire. The fire in the north lit up the whole sky and the entire building was burned flat. It was one of the worst storms I ever witnessed. It lasted a good solid two hours, banging and crashing. It was in the year of nineteen hundred twenty-two when I was only ten years old. and I was a pretty scared boy for awhile. FAITH Perhaps the greatest of all human traits is faithfulness. It is an inspiring thought to know that, while man in a way is like a well-oiled machine, he has the power to think for himself and that power of thought is what produces faithfulness. Faithfulness is loyalty to one ' s God, country, and friends. We have faith that there is a God. We cannot sec him. lie is not visible to the human eye, hut we can see his wonderful works and wc know that there is a God. We unconsciously defend him when some¬ one says, “There is no God. We have faith in our country. We are loyal to it. We know what it has done in the past and we have faith that it will do even better in the future. It has been this faith and loyalty which has enabled some of our great men to do so much for our country. George Washington had faith that the Republic, of which he was the father, would expand and become a great nation. Other great men have had the same faith, that every nation would con¬ tinue to be great. We have faith in our friends, and Oh. how great that faith is sometimes. The faith of a mother in her child. It is the human instinct to be faithful and loyal to our dear ones. Perhaps a story I heard once on faithfulness would be appropriate. During the war there were many dogs used for despatch carrying. Perhaps the most famous was a dog called Rin-tin-tin. Rill was used mostly as a messenger dog, but sometimes helped in the saving of the J. lu, ? 29. THE FOUR CORNERS 15 wounded.

Bin erawled out into No Man ' s Land and after a difficult search found Buddy wounded with a bullet in his chest. Just then the enemy started a heavy barrage tire preparatory to a night attack. Buddy recognized this and altho very weak from loss of blood saw that his dog could not help him and ordered him hack to the home base. But for once Bin wouldn ' t obey him. With almost, human intelligence he grasped Buddy hy the foot and dragged him inch hy inch hack toward the homo base. Buddy lost consciousness and no one knows how long it took the dog. hut Bin-tin-tin brought lii.s master back and Buddy was saved. This story goes to prove that faithfulness is not only a human trait, but is also the first instinct of an animal to his master. Faithfulness tends to strengthen the character and to link good will between men and nations. Let us take that beauti¬ ful verse in the Bible for our motto: “Bo thou faithful unto death and 1 will give thee a crown of life.” W. F., 28. MY FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL It was a dreadful day the first time I went to school. I shall never forget it. Perhaps it would not have been such an abominable experience if J had not had the misfortune the night before of trying to ride my brother’s bicycle and skinning my bare foot on a cog-wheel pedal. Well, that morning was up with the sun and Mother said that this was the day I was to wear my brand now shoes.. They had sat upon the shelf and l had eyed them with no little degree of pride and had been overjoyed in the thought that the next Monday would wear them. But when it came to pulling them on over the sore foot and then limping across the floor, of all the excruciating pain. I was almost tempted to don my sneakers, but the shoes were bright and shiny and when I thought of how envious (lie other children would he, I could not make the change. Well, I started out with the children that lived across the street. Wc got a ride to school in a wagon by one of the neighbors. School began at half-past nine. We sat in double seats. 1 sat with a pretty girl who smiled at me. This was the only thing that kept my courage up, nor did this suffice long. The pain in my foot in¬ creased and it was so hot for tiic first of September, I felt extremely uncomfortable. At last my head sank on my desk and I gave in to loud heart-breaking sobs that filled the schoolroom with their volume. The boys snickered and the teacher did everything under the sun to stop me. At last, at her wits’ end, she sent my oldest cousin home with me. When we were out of sight of the school- house I sat down on a stone and took those implements of torture off my feet. Oh, what a grand and glorious feeling! 10 THE FOUR CORNERS Mother was not angry at me. as 1 had pictured her to be. She said. “Y on must go to school to-morrow and do as ihe teacher tells you. Tt did not strike me favorably then, but on the next day it went smoothly. 1 think one of the secrets of the next day ' s success was that 1 wore some old sneakers instead of those glorious but ex¬ ceedingly uncomfortable new shoes. C. H.. ' 28. GORHAM FAIR On the second day of Gorham Fair. Walter Xeilscn and I decided that we would go. So we started out in a “Tin Lizzie. ' We had gone about two miles when “Bang and tbe back end of tbc car sank about six inches. We got out and found a hole in the rear tire about six inches square. As luck would have it, we had a spare tire and so we changed it. By the time we had finished we were not quite so fresh lookiug as wc were when we started. 1 was covered with dirt and sand and Walter had received a nice streak of grease on the side of his nose. Well, once more we were ready to start. We got in and Walter got “Lizzie going. We had gone about three miles more when “Lizzie liegan to choke and then she stopped altogether. We got out and found we were out of gas. Well, we finally got it started and the only way we could make it go was for me to sit on the radiator and kan over the front to choke it. Bv doing that we finally got to Sherman ' s store at South Gorham, where Walter stopped so suddenly that I took a very pretty nose dive over tin front, and that did not make me look much hotter. Wc got some gas at the store and started on our way again. We had gone about three miles more when oile of the front tires blew out. We were near a tilling station and Walter bought a new innertube. Not so many rides on the merry-go-round for him ! Wi¬ fi xcd the tire and this lime we goi there without any trouble. We parked Lizzie, 7 bought our tickets, and went in to look around. As 1 was walking along, who should I see hut one of the learned Seniors, throw¬ ing baseballs at a negro ' s head. He did not manage to hit him while I was there. A little later 1 saw another one of t ho Seniors, hut he was not trying to hit a negro. 1 came hack a little later and Kddie was still throwing baseballs. He was trying to win a box of chocolates for one of the Juniors, F think. T thought it must he nearly time to go home and so I went hack to the Ford to see if Walter was waiting for me. I didn ' t see him anywhere, so 1 went back to the grounds and watched the horse racing. While I was there I saw Walter, and he said it was time for us to go home, as he had to milk the cows. So we went hack to the Ford. When we got there we found that an agent for liver pills had been around and he had tilled the back seat almost full of sample packages. As neither of us had liver trouble we threw them away. We managed to get home with only one blowout. We were planning to go the next day. hut the Ford didn ' t want to. J. F., ’30. THE FOUR CORNERS 17 PREPAREDNESS Preparedness is one of tlio most im porta nt questions that concerns I he l nited Slates at this time; not only the United Slates, hut the entire civilized world When the populace first, hears talk of pre¬ paredness, their thoughts turn to war. Of course, preparedness pkiys an important role in governmental and political difficul¬ ties between two countries, and in case of war is a priceless gem to have. However, maybe The League of Nations or The World Court will settle all disputes in the future. It is not my task to discuss this point now. but to delve deeper into the sub¬ ject, considering other important points. To be of service in any walk of life, we must make preparation. If we would be successful we must seize the opportuni¬ ties for study and developing the mind and body, then, whatever may be our vocation, we will be better fitted for it. “He Prepared” is one of the great mot¬ toes of the Boy Scouts. They have been able to render great service in times of need by being prepared. Many lives have been saved by their preparedness. They have acquired the knowledge by study and clean living; by attention to their minds and bodies, building them up for emergencies. One of our great Presidents, Theodore Roosevelt, as a child was very delicate and frail, yet he determined that he would not always be like that, but would make some¬ thing of himself. By grit, determination, and clean living, he built up his body, and by study ho developed his mind so that he was ready when the time came for the great position he occupied as President of lhe United States. Those who have won out in the great battles of life have been prepared. The great men of the past who have been promi¬ nent in our country ' s emergencies have been prepared. In speaking of school life, lack of prep¬ aration spells failure in our studies, and if continued, would mean failure in our final examinations. If we would have any measure of success in life, we must make careful preparation. Preparedness has been the keynote of success in Athletics. For illustration, take the young swimmer who has recently won fame by the Catalina Channel swim. He attributes his success to being prepared. In baseball, basketball, or track meets, preparedness is the essential thing. Let this be our motto in whatever activity we undertake, “Be Prepared.” W. F., 28. A BOX OF OLD TOYS I had been reading, but somehow my thoughts kept wandering from the page and I could not keep the thread of the story in mind. So after awhile I decided it was no use and put away my book. 1 wandered about and could not seem to settle anything. It was one of those dreary, stormy days, too stormy to venture out and, of course, too stormy to expect callers. IS THE FOUR CORNERS After a time I thought of some old papers up in the attic that I had intended to look over to see if there were not some poems good enough for in v scrap hook. So 1 went upstairs. Our attic is, 1 suppose, much like other attics. There were some old pieces of fur¬ niture in one corner. The old rocking chair that we children had broken when Cousin Carl was visiting us and Carl fell over it while chasing us girls with a worm. Then there was the Imukeasc Kate and 1 had tried to move the tirst time we were left to keep house alone. We had thought we would surprise Mother with the changed looks of the li ing room. We had surprised her with the absence of the book case as we had split the side right oft. In one corner is an overturned box piled high with old magazines and papers, him tirst l.eie is a small box sitting at one sid: all alone. I think of the many times 1 have removed the cover in the olden days it contains all the toys Kate and 1 ever 1 ad while we were children, except the few v:e destroyed completely. 1 must look at thorn cnee more. Here is the doll with only one eye. Sister Kaic always pitied her so and was always especially grod to her. And Dinah, the colored doll, with the rt-d kerchief; Ruth, the liaby doll, and the liox f paper dolls Kate and I cut out of catalogues. And here are the drawing slants that ITiclc Jim sent us from Chicago, one had the glass broken and we had drawn lots to see which one should have the whole one. Kate woti and then she decided we would put the pic¬ tures all in the one slate and have it to¬ gether. Kate always was like that. If one had anything different from the other wo enjoyed it so for awhile, then it limn tic the property of both. And here in the corner is all that is left of our doll dishes, the cups with broken handles, and the teapot wit hout a snout. What fun we used to have with them ! Hero are the striped rubber balls Carl gave us as a parting gift when be went our West. How long ago it seems 1 ITidmicarh. at the very bottom, are the old story hooks. The little linen “A 15 C Hook from which we learned our letters. How hard it was for me to learn the S until grandmother told mo to remember S was ilie snake letter, crooked like a snake ' s track. And here is the hook with the story of “Little Red Riding Hood. It all comes back to me how Kate got lost in iho wont Is while we were trying to dramatize it. Dear Kate, how I had loved her and she had been with me for so short a time. She has hc-en gone now for ten years. Xow she comes hack to me as I am looking over our old toys. Sister Kate, your memory will never die. It is entwined around my heart even as it is around the old toys in the box in the attic. R. I. W.. ‘28. CROWDS Crowds, do they annoy yon, make you irritable and snappish to some one in your way ' Possibly there is some very im¬ portant engagement that must be kept, and THE FOUR CORNERS 19 in dismay you see a long rank of people moving with exasperating slowness, be¬ tween you and freedom; there you arc like a. woodchuck caught in a box trap made of people. If mobs try your patience to the end of its elasticity, philosophize concerning them. But above all things, do this when the temperativc has cooled from boiling to living-room degrees, for it has been re¬ marked by ancient members of this cult, that nothing could be viewed frankly and fairly when the reasoning machinery was overheated. If this is difficult, examine the head coverings bobbing about you and try to imagine the designers. Listen to a voice and try to picture the appearance of the owner. There are innumerable other things that I could mention, but I leave them to you. When you have a lengthy period to wait in a station, you will find nothing more in¬ teresting than to carefully inspect certain types, selected from the buzzing mob, and make imaginary journeys with them, visit what you think they would visit, view their home and business life. This should be done in a quiet and polite way, for it is considered very ill-mannered to openly stare. Such inspection sharpens the sense of observation; also one accustomed to de¬ fining the character and habits of people can easily pick representatives of all classes. When you see all the human beings pour¬ ing out of a mill at noon or night, doesn’t it remind you of a gigantic flock of crows during the migrating season, that has been stirred up by some suspicious noise? Thither and yon they throng, then farther apart they move. If you have an oppor¬ tunity to view them, how can you help but interest yourself in visionary pictures of the habits and modes of their life? One never realizes fully his smallness and inferiority until he has mingled with a great throng of strangers. On a visit to Boston, my travels being of a somewhat limited nature, I could not but sense this. I really grew to envy that mighty army of workers that take the five o’clock subway or elevated cars. A definite purpose guided them; they had done their day’s work as a class, now they were returning to become individuals, into the appreciating company of families or friends. Not one loitered, every step was firm, decisive, and onward, and they had to be, or there was a regiment of their kind ready to walk over them if they faltered; just as progress and inventions put old style or decrepit devices onto the backyard dumps. Quick decision and knowledge of what they intended to do, possessed them and prevented calamities. Let one ride with them and he would be glad that he was of that company, a grain of salt in a huge sea, but there, neverthe¬ less. One of my greatest ambitions, on partic¬ ularly slack days, is sometime to be able to read, write, and talk both Chinese and Japanese; the second rung on my ladder of ambition, up or down, I know not which, is to be able to read the Boston Globe on one of those late afternoon subway cars. If ever there was “honest Injun” magic or the power to perform miracles, those that serenely read their papers in those sardine 20 THE FOUR CORNERS cans surely possess that power, and it was certainly interesting and nothing short of a marvel to see them make use of sncli an arr. A crowd stimulates any person, and if you are foundering on a reef of despond cney. get into a real hig molt and you can ' t prevent yourself from gaylv sliding off the dangerous rocky jutting, yes, oven withon the aid of Neptune’s mighty trident. ’ M. P.. 27. A BALLAD OF THE PORTLAND One night when the snow raged fiercely With its dreadTul wailing sound. It reminded my mother, so she said. Of the night when the -Portland went down. So I will tell you. my children. As it was told to me; It taught me how mighty is He above. And how treacherous is the sea. It was a chill winter evening. The “Portland had set sail To reach Maine ere Thanksgiving. No warning could prevail. It started upon its journey O’er a dull and leaden sea; Ere long a Minding storm did rise— The wind howled gustily. Eut the Captain steered thru the heavy snow And never a thot had he CC the dangerous way before him And the Etorm that would wilder be. In � he dining hall the people thronged On the eve of that fatal day. Ta’k rising merrily ' mongst them— Not the slightest fear had they. With a gay “Good night” they went to their berths Filled with thots of the coming morn. When they should dock at Portland And home their steps would turn. Oh. how the tempest blustered! But the ship thru the water crept. And still no fear had the captain As the people in qaiet slept. Now staunch to his post stands the Captain, But with fingers numbed and blue; He prayed that the awful tempest Wouid spare his charge and his crew. The waves dashed mad on the bowsprit. They swirled o’er the bulwark’s top Then parted the mighty timbers— Swift eddies marked the spot. At home on the wharf stood the watchers, For two weary days did they wait. Eut no sign of boat nor wreckage To tell their awful fate. Close by the shoals of Nantucket In view of the Highland Light. The gallant boat had foundered In the deeps of the inky night. Far o ' er the waste of the billows. Life boats were manned and sent; Eut not a trace of the vessel To comfort kin or friend. As on the shores of Cape Cod. Where a watch kept vigil sad. They perceived a phantom clad in white. Which turned the watchers mad. It was the wraith of a woman. Whose dank hair clung to her head: In her arms a drowned in ant, And with sad and noiseless tread. ’Twas the only ghostly wand’rer Ere seen of people or crew. Which sailed from Boston Harbor For their homes across the blue. So now, dear one. as the tempests roar And the ships are the billows’ sport. Let us think of those on the ocean And pray that they make their po:t. R. M H. A., ' 27. THE OLD SCHOOI HOUSE There’s a schoolhouse that stands bv itself on the hill, Abandoned, deserted, rejected and still; Closed up and forgotten, it stands idly there. Yet it speaks to my mind of days that were fair, When the children gathered within that place With jostling, and laughing, and smiling face. To quiet down at the ring of the bell. And to learn their lessons, they tried full well. To be ready to go, through the long noon hour. To roam through the woods, or search for a flower; Or in winter to slide on the long steep hill THE I ' OUR CORNERS 21 When to steer a sled took power and skill. Then came a certain graduation day When school dosed and all went away. And the doors were closed ne’er to open more, And dust settled o’er the desks, seats, and II o That ' s the school house that stands I y itself on the hill— Vot it brings pleasant memories and always will.

Me wandered about at his master ' s heels, Through the woods and over the Helds, And home at night when his work was through. He followed his master faithful and true. T. W., ’2S.

Then when the day is taking flight, As the sink ng sun portrays, Tlie purple peaks of a mountain height Then give a different phase, Of a sad. but beautiful passion, That slowly dies away Wi h the sunlight’s fading action That closes the gates of day.

As far as scores go, we sure did make it a success in most of our games. The girls who came out for practice were: Hilcla Harmon, ’20, Frances Bow- lev, ’28, Olive Jellerson, ’30, Hazel Mac¬ Millan, ’30, Evelyn Chandler, ’30. Alice Trider, ' 29, Esther Nielsen, ’30. Bernice Thibeau, ’29. Constance Higgins, ’2S, Anna Kelley, 29, Gertrude Soule, ’27, Ruth Ahlquist, ’27, and Dagna Olesen, ’28. Ruth Ahlquist was elected manager and Dagna Olesen, captain. Dagna Olesen was the only player left from last year ' s winning combination, but faithful practice on the part of the begin¬ ners and the efficient coaching of Mrs. Hol- way plus much of the good old Scarboro High fight, gave us victories in seven games and defeats in only three. Summary of Games Scarboro, 7 Alumnae. 8 Scarboro, 15 Windham, 21 Scarboro, 22 Portland, 2d, 15 Scarboro, 22 Gorham, 15 Scarboro, 52 Buxton, S Scarboro, 29 Alumnae, s Scarboro, IS Gorham, 30 Scarboro. 39 Old Orchard, 4 Scarboro. 56 Old Orchard, 6 Scarboro, 62 Buxton, 6 Our first game was a tryout merely. as practically all of our girls were new at the game and our Alumnae won from us 8-7. On January 14 we played Windham, being defeated again 21-15. We were just beginning now to develop good team-work and the next week we trimmed the Port¬ land High 2nd 22-15. On January 28 we played Gorham girls and we again won 22-15. We led at the end of the third period. 21-! , but after several of our substitutes were put into the game, Gorham ran up their score. We were without a game the next week, due to Windham ' s cancellation, because of an epidemic of measles and consequently we “lost our stride and were defeated at Gorham on February 24, 30-18, our only defeat away from borne. On February 4, we rode over the snowy roads to Buxton, meeting with a lot of ‘‘hard sledding. The same spirit which we had shown in the last two games was present again, and we came out on the winning side by a score of 52-S. Anxious to avenge our 8-7 defeat bv the Alumnae, we again played them on Feb¬ ruary 11, and this time we won easily 29-8. We beat our ancient rivals, Old Or¬ chard High, in two consecutive games, 39-4 at Old Orchard and 56-G at Scarboro. These games were one-sided but full of in¬ terest to the spectators, due to the keen spirit of rivalry between the schools. Last of all was the return game with Buxton on March 12. we winning by a score of 62-6, our highest score of the year. Ruth Ahlquist and Esther Nielsen are tall, aggressive guards and it has been due largely to their defensive playing that our opponents have been held to such low scores. Alice Trider, our side center, has not missed one minute of playing for the whole season, and together with Hazel MacMil¬ lan and Olive Jellerson, alternates at jump¬ ing center, has aided much in our team’s fine passing game. 777 i FOUR CORNERS 31 Gertrude Soule, E ranees Bowley ami Hilda Harmon have all played nl right forward, and although not big scorers themselves, have aided Dagna Olesen at left foiward in caging many baskets, he eaus(‘ of their mnirate passing. And now—Let ' s go for a better team in 1028 ! ! ! Sr 1 1’LEM ENT TO GlKLS BASKETBALL By Hoys’ Athletic Koitok Due to the fact that the star basketball player of Searboro High (Miss Dagna Olesen) is the girls ' athletic editor, we feel that she lias not given herself due credit in her write-ups. What is believed by followers of the Searboro sextet to he a girls ' high scoring record for the season in the state was es¬ tablished by Miss Olesen. In addition, her 28 lie Id goals for a total of 56 points against the Buxton High girls, is believed to be another season ' s mark. . The Port¬ land Sunday Telegram said of her: k M iss Olesen’s accuracy in shooting field baskets borders on the phenomenal. The speed of ilie little Pcarhoro forward invariably al¬ ii wed her to penetrate the opposing de¬ fense to display her scoring skill.” Her record for the season follows: Goals Fern la Points Alumnae . ....... 3 1 7 Windham .. 1 15 Portland, 2d ... , . 9 4 22 Corhnm .. . ..... 10 1 21 IAlston . 1 4S Alumnae . . a 1 19 Old Orchard ... . is 1 37 Old Orchard .. 27 0 54 Tux ton . 0 56 135 10 279 Wearers of ‘‘S ' i.v Scarhoro High Cross Country W inship, 27 La id law, ’28 Scamman, ’28 Morse, ’20 S.

It snowed so hard the fields were green, And the hay was lily white; It was the fnnniest day I had ever seen, On that glorious Christmas night. The people all around the town Were stricken hot with fear, For they were afraid the sky was tailing. On such a beautiful time of year. The pigs were roosting in the trees. The hens in their stanchions tied. The cows were in the oven so as not to freeze. While the ducks in the ice house died. The ice was floating in the fields. A boy was in the lake to dry: The crops were giving such yields That round our pocketbooks a string we tied. The cows gave butter instead of milk. While the hens laid hard boiled eggs; The bees had taken up spinning silk. While hair grew on the chicken ' s logs. So 1 just rose up and (old them That the world was sure at its worst. And if a change did not soon take place. We all would be under the earth. Mrs. H.: “Before w study ilie (Vi mean war. can anyone tell me where Cri¬ mea is situated ( K.
