XVIII MAY. 1020 No. 1 Many successful enterprises have had their origin in simple fashion and amid humble surroundings. Your editor has found this to he true with Tiik Fori: Cornkbs. Recently he has collected a copy of each issue since the paper was first published and in reading them many inter¬ esting things have lieen brought to his attention. The first issue of Tiik Fori: Corners was published in the year 1912 and was a volume of thirty-five pages. The paper lias steadily grown during the seventeen ycais of its infancy and earlv youth and is just emerging into adulthood not only in respect to size hut in the quality of its make-up. The 1928 issue contained sev¬ enty-six pages, including well-balanced de¬ partmental sections, a large advertising section, and nineteen pictures and seven cuts. In reading these numbers in consecutive older, one gets the impression of a contin¬ ued story and gains a real perspective in understanding how the high school has de¬ veloped simultaneously with the year hook itself until it has reached the high stand¬ ard of ideals, scholarship, activities and physical equipment which it now possesses. It is veiv evident that our paper never could have attained its present degree of excellence had it not been for the splendid (oprration of our advertisers who last year numbered one hundred and thirty- live . No other paper which we receive has so large an advertising department. Not uly do the merchants of Scar boro and of surrounding towns sup| ort us in this re¬ spect hut also many friends of the school give us complimentary ads, showing their real interest in the success of our animal. The least that wo can do in return is to thank each one who has contributed in this way and to urge every reader to read the ads carefully and to patronize our adver¬ tisers whenever possible. 77 A’ ' Y;r« CORNERS GOOD DISCIPLINE Tlu- well-being of any school depends in a large measure upon the individual conduct of its members not alone at the school (lining school hours but elsewhere during their connection with the school. hilt ' it is essentially the duty of the piineipal and teachers to direct and to gov rn the student body in the everyday i� mine of school work and discipline, and t h :d the student to cultivate truthful- in v , s ■ I i control, a proper sense of right end wiong, and an interest in the moral . tun sphere of the school, it is the duty of • n h me mb v of the student body to comply whole-lie artedlv with such a program and to b.lh.w the “rules of the game, ' ’ both i1 1 1i11 and outside the school. No school aii lunetion to its highest degree of effi- m nov unless the desire for its well-being •iih In in within the student hoily and ■ � i desire and the proper reaction to it i ntitutes the real keynote to good discipline. LET’S READ BETTER BOOKS When we visit a library and glance through the many shelves of hooks, good end bad, what sort of a book do we pick cut to read i Does the mere glamor of an attractive title or the lure of some well- advertised book of modern fiction interest us most, or do we look through the books and choose one which we know will he of st ine real benefit to us { More often we are inclined to choose the ones of the former sort, perhaps because they arc easier to understand and more quickly read. But what have we gained after the reading of such a book? Nothing that is worthwhile. The reading of good books and the play¬ ing of good music are somewhat the same. Many times people who play some musical instrument pick out a piece of jazz to play simply because it is more easily executed and its rhythm easy to master. If the same amount of time were spent on some classical or semi-classical selection, a better knowledge and appreciation of good music and its technique would be developed. Let us develop our abilities to appreciate good reading so that we may well and proudly sav, “I have gained, and am able to understand and appreciate good, worth¬ while books.” STUDENT CITIZENS Students of a school are in reality much the same as citizens of a country, and should be as loyal to it as a good citizen is to his country. The school is a good train¬ ing for the future citizens of the country and should hold the same respect that the country does in the citizen’s life. A good citizen is a person who does more than reside in a certain community. He is a person who shows an interest in the activities of the community and who works for its betterment, at every oppor¬ tunity. He is always ready to help the church, school or other civic organization and does these things for other than a purely selfish motive. He is a person who is able to see far enough ahead to know that improvements to the community are things which will benefit it in the end if not at the present time. He knows that such improvements are wise future invest¬ ments. He is the sort of a person who s THE FOUR CORSERF does not kick at a slight raise in his taxes for some improvement which raises the valuation of the property in the town or community many times what it was previ¬ ous to this improvement. This applies in the same way to the stu¬ dents in a school. In order for them to show themselves real citizens they must always work for the development and bet¬ terment of their school along tin lines of scholastic achievement, athletic honors, and civic leadership: as a far-seeing citizen takes a genuine pride in his community, so should pupils be “student citizens, and give their best endeavors to their tasks in school, so that they may hold tin respect and admiration which everyone has for a good citizen.

This house was a beautiful old colonial house. 1 hen was everything attractive about it. It sat hack from the main road of travel nearly a quarter of a mile. A wide graveled path led straight to tin front door. On cither side of the path were tall maple live that dropped their shadows on it and in whose tops the birds chattered, seeming ' bid you welcome when you came in. I be bouse itself was pure white with lmuc pil¬ lars on either side of tin door. hi tin left side, overlooking a narrow st n . m ot water, was a large piazza. ( oni ' lWrtable chairs and several tables wen o,itrend about on it. All around tin house were wide, (veil lawns and more shade ' trees. Behind it were two large barns, also sev¬ eral small cabins, where the slaves lived. The old place bad an atmosphere of wel¬ come and of cheerfulness about it. This was tin home of Thomas Greene and bis family. He was not a poor man ; nor was be bv anv means rich, but be was very proud. He had reason to he proud, lie had a splendid old southern homestead, whose value was much increased by the traditions surrounding it. Ir was said that George Washington had often visi ted here. To Thomas’ grandfather lie had made some trilling gifts still treasured by Thomas, who would not have parted with 77 A 1 FOUR CORNERS 17 th(‘in for all the nmncv in I lie world.—a whip with a gold handle, inscribed with Washington ' s initials, a saddle, and a gun. These were all laid away in the attic , along with an old spinning wheel, several pic¬ tures, and an old cradle, about which no one cared in the least. Thomas Greene, now a man of past middle age, was justly proud, too, of his tine ' family of two girls and four hovs. Hairy, Dick and doe were the older hoys: Mary and Edith wen younger. Harry had taken a good deal of the man¬ agement of the plantation on his own shoulders, the ' other hoys doing their share of the work, ' filings had begun to prosper. I.aige r crops of sugar and tobacco were be¬ ing raised and sent down the river. The skives because they were happy there and k vc d the ir master, worked as industriously a- the hoys of the family. Indeed, Ned, the old slave ' who had lived on the planta¬ tion all his life, was just like one of the family. The homestead was prosperously happy, and Harry was waiting only a little longer before lie took a certain sedate little maiden as his wife. Dn this certain evening, after supper, a number of the young folks from the neigh¬ boring plantations had come to spend the evening and wen playing tennis on the lawn. Father and Mother were sitting on the piazza. Mother reading and Father smoking his pipe and enjoying the beauti¬ ful sunse t. Kverything was quiet and pe aceful. The sun had gone down behind the trees. The whippoorwill had begun his evening song. The young voices echoed and rang through the air. Suddenly the sound of a horse galloping was heard on the path. In an instant the horse was in front of the piazza. The rider did not get off, hut spoke a few quick words from his saddle. “Every able-bodied man must get out at once and fight for the cause of the South! Fnion armies tire being rushed down. We must fight!” fhe rider was off again before any questions could he asked. Thomas was up and getting his things ready. Early the next morning all the men folks except old Ned had left to fight in the Confederate Army. Besides the old slave there re¬ mained only Mrs. Greene, Mary and Edith, and the negro mammies and chil¬ dren. The happy household was turned to sorrow. Throughout the period of the war, and after, things had gone from bad to worse. The crops spoiled because old Ned wasn’t able to take care of them. In the first year of the struggle Dick had been brought home wounded so badly that the old doctor sorrowfully told them he ' d always be a cripple. The girls were broken-hearted. Dick worried because the crops were going to waste, but Mother laughed and tried to cheer them up, when she was near them. Nobody knew how she suffered and how she spent her nights in tears. She ex¬ pected to hear at any time that her hus¬ band or one of the other sons had been killed. Thackeray says that war “takes the blood of men and the tears of women.” He means that while men suffer bodily the women suffer in spirit, and tlicir courage in bearing sorrow is as great as that of men. Mother Greene tried not to let them know how scarce the food was, making the best excuses she could invent for having 18 THE FOCI! COHXFHS such small meals. Toward the end of the war they were living on johnny-cake and corn, which they worked in the fields to raise. They were reduced to poverty. Hut all the men were still safe, and in that they were happy. Joe and Harry had been wounded but not seriously and were still fighting. At last the war was ended. The men had returned home. Hut now, two years after the peace, they still struggled with poverty. Their crops had been destroyed, everything was run down. They had no money to buy seed. Nevertheless, they would not give in. Several men from the North had wanted to buy the plantation, but proud Thomas would not consent; he would find some way out before he would sell the house that had been in his family so many years. Nearly the whole was mortgaged, but he hoped to borrow money to buy seed, then pay off the mortgage 1 . For two years he had tried to lmrrow. but everyone was as hard put as himself. No one had had money to lend. Still Thomas would not sell at some of the enormous prices lie was offered. So things stood one day in early spring two years after the war. The family was away; no one was at home except the negroes. Two men, strangers, appeared at the house. Abruptly they put aside old Ned and entered. They went all through the house, poking everywhere, then up to the attic. They found the things that be¬ longed to Washington. These they were just laying aside as valueless when old Ned, who had followed them up and was proudly telling the story of the souvenirs, made them change their minds. “We ' d better have those, 1 reckon. said one of them. Sir! came a voice from the doorway. Thev looked up, to sec Thomas standing there. Sir. your presumption is groat. F n a bashed by Colonel Greenes very ap¬ parent anger, the man who had spoken approached the owner. You ' re Mr. Greene? We want those pieces, and want them a lot. v i on won t stand out. I ' m sure. Don! you need the money ( I pay high. Thomas bad never felt tempted at Fir¬ mer oilers for the gifts, lie bad never considered selling. Now, however, lie stood trying to convince himself that be must sell them for the sake oi his lamily. “Gome now, they do you no good you know. the man was urging. Maybe you all better ei o tin tip, Marse Greene, old Ned put in. only Thomas knew at what eilort. No .... No. I’ll find anotIn i ty. answered Thomas Greene at last. But the men were not listening. Some¬ thing caught their eye away back umb t tin eaves. Already they were eagerly examin¬ ing the old cradle, looking at tin dates carved on the rocker. ‘‘Bob, do you see that ? H� 4o ! In |o ! And in perfect condition ! We ' re in luck. Mr. Greene, you ' ll sell, won ' t you ( Never mind the whip and the saddle. Hut this! Say you ' ll sell. So the bargain was made. Thomas Greene, who thought they were crazy to offer throe hundred dollars for the dis¬ carded cradle, gladly accepted. Then lie showed them some old pictures that bad been carefully wrapped up in heavy paper and put up under the eaves. ‘‘I ' ve been wondering, lie told them, “whether these have any value. They were willed to me a few years before the THE Font ( ' ORSERF 10 war by an old friend of the family. Can you toll mo V ' Robert Savage at bis first. glance cried out iu aslouislnnout. They wore, lie felt practically sure, three long-lost pictures I aimed by a noted Hutch artist. The paintings bad been stolen from the Boston Museum souk thirty years before, and doubtless bad been sold to unsuspecting buyers. Robert. Savage said that be would verify bis belief and if it were so, return the paintings to the museum. When Savage bit, Thomas dreene felt almost sure of the thousand dollar reward offered for their return. When the expected reward came, Thomas paid off the mortgage 1 , bought seed, and waited new crops. There was a de¬ mand for all the tobacco they could raise, and at a good price . That spring front a traveler who was pacing through they beard of a great phy- sieian who lived in Boston. If only Dick could have bis care be might be able to have the wheel-chair be bad been in so long. The whole family set their hearts on tving money to send Dick to Boston. Karly in the fall Dick was put on the train for N( w England, lie was there in Bos¬ ton all winter. After be bad been there nearly eight weeks, be wrote home saying that the doctor noted rapid improvement since bis operation, and that he would soon be fitting up in an armchair.

Happiness was now complete in the family. L. M. M., ’31. THE HAUNTED HOUSE I can remember when I was very small of legends told of a certain bouse in our neighborhood. They were really ghost stories, and for the reason that they arc fresh in my mind. I will tell you one. This certain house was the home of a retired captain and he seemed to be very happy and contented in bis beautiful home with a ll its luxuries, lie would tell many interesting tales about his adventures at sea and people were never tired of listen¬ ing to him. He would invite all the neigh¬ bors in for some special occasion and have a feast for them. 11 is house would be dec¬ orated to suit the festival, and bis servants km. w just what to do, especially the cook, who was much better than the ordinary. This retired captain’s name was Smith and he had a very beautiful daughter, Mary. Sin had been educated away and was very smart. Above all, she had great beauty which was the pride of her father, lie waited for her vacations, and just longed for her arrival. Mary never seemed to lie quite contented at home, whether it was the town or her lack of companions no one knew, but Mary always appeared sad and lonely until one Christmas she came 1 ome for vacation and brought with her a young naval officer; then she appeared very happy and gay. She went to all the social gatherings that she was invited to and she seemed to enjoy herself. Every¬ one thought it would be splendid if she should marry the officer and come home to live, as her father was getting very old and feeble. People liked the officer very much, and they even told the captain as much but be did not like the officer for some reason or other and he seemed cross and ugly when the young man was around. 20 THE FOUR CORXERS Tn the captain ' s garden, which was very beautiful in summer with its fountains and flowers, was a skating rink which everyone had the privilege of using. Young people in the village came there on evenings and sometimes Mary joined them hut she would not go out when the officer was there. Nights when there was some attraction elsewhere Mary and the officer would go out together and then the old cap¬ tain would sit by the window and watch her with the lines deepening on his fore¬ head. lie grew so angry with her that, one day he called her to him and told her if she was going to keep that officer around that she could take her choice, either to go away altogether, or to send the officer away. Mary would not do the latter, so one day the old captain told Mary she might leave his home forever. She was very sad, as she knew it would he hard for him there alone with the servants, but she knew his mind was made up. All she could do was go. She went with the young officer and everyone supposed that she married him. The old captain lived like a hermit, lie did not invite the neighbors in and if they came he was not very pleasant. He was cross to his servants and sometimes pun¬ ished them severely. He lived to be very old and people who were friendly with Mary said that she had written him many letters and sent him remembrances but to no avail. The old captain, who knew he did not have long to live, went and made his will, leaving all his wealth to a distant cousin who was poor. When the captain died, two years after the making of this will, the poor cousin immediately began to move into the house. The family, including many children, lived an uneventful life until one evening one of the girls went into a vacant room which had been the captain ' s den : then began their trouble. The girl wont into the room as usual but she soon tell back because in tbe chair by the window over¬ looking the gulden she bad seen the figure of an old man and looking into the garden she could dimly see the figure ' s of a young girl and fellow seemingly gliding along. She was so frightened that she fainted and she must have screamed because some of her people came running and instantly the old man disappeared. Her father and mother thought it was merely the end ' s nervousness, but she told them t«. watch for themselves. They decided the would. They forgot it for a few night- bur in a short time the father spoke about it. lie took bis station where he could wa’di tbe chair and also get a good view of tlie gar¬ den. He sat there some time and lie felt almost determined that bis daughter bad not seen anything when suddenlv lie saw the thing just as she had described it to him, and be also recognized the figure in the chair as liis distant cousin, tin cap¬ tain. lie thought no more about it for a rime hut they were all constantly bothered by a certain feeling they could not de¬ scribe. 1 lien came news that Mary and her husband, the officer, had been killed in a train accident. The cousin ' s mind was more ill at ease than ever. Finally he moved out and he tried a long time to sell lief ere begot a purchaser and when he did he instantly seized the opportunity. How¬ ever, every family that lived there after¬ wards was annoyed, so that finally it was deserted and looked down upon by every- THE FOUR CORNERS 21 one. People who had visited it. so fre¬ quently would run hv it without, looking and voting fellows who had used the skat¬ ing rink would not enter the gate. It seemed to stand out. as a spectre, whereas it had been a beautiful mansion. This is one of the stories told of the old house, hut you may form your own opinion as to the truth of it. To me it. seems hardly possible. Nevertheless, it has haunted many people and probably will continue to as long as people band down the ancient legends from one generation to another. SI. 0. 0., ’30. LIZZIE VERSUS HENRY ()n the night of March twentieth, 1 had r ached Shaw ' s store on mv return from the high .school. As usual I was inside the store chatting for a few minutes, when 1 thought I heard Harry Jones with his airplane. I rushed to the door just in time to see a dilapidated piece of machin¬ ery called a Ford stop in front of the store. Km a minute I felt rather anxious for the safety of my Ford, which was parked in front of the store; hut the pilot of the racing car. Olsen, was able to apply the brakes m time to avoid scarring the paint on my Lizzie. Olsen and Sawyer came into the store and got a barrel of water to till the radia¬ tor. After they had succeeded in filling it, Olsen challenged me to a race. What could 1 do but agree? 1 took over the controller of my Ford and caused the switch to ignite. Mr. Plummer, my mechanic, turned the crooked piece of iron in front and we were soon lined up in the road ready to race. Olsen started ahead and I followed; both Fords gave a few coughs and barks and were underway. Olsen was using all of his strategy to obtain speed from his Henry and I was toiling hard to get better results from my Lizzie. We rolled down the Front’s Neck Road neck and neck, past the Post-office, the greenhouses, the cemetery, on, on we went. 1 advanced my spark to get better results, Olsen did the same. Neck and neck we went.; Olsen’s Ford was beginning to sweat under the strain. It had strained itself in the radiator, and great draughts of water were pouring forth. Yet we went on. The rate at which we went is not known, but the telephone poles looked like a fine- tooth comb. At about the second mile my Lizzie de¬ veloped a skip, and for an instant I thought the race was lost, but, no,—Olsen’s spark rod had an argument with the fan and his car suffered a set-back. On yet we went. Olsen’s Henry forged slowly ahead, and 1 gave Lizzie more gas and spark but with no results. So Plummer and 1 hunched farther down in the cockpit to give less wind resistance. In a second I had gained the lead just as both cars shot over the finish line. Sly Lizzie was the proud winner. S. W. P., ’20. WHY GO TO COLLEGE? In the last year of our high school course, a great many of us are unsettled as to what we are going to do after we grad¬ uate. Unless we are among those fortunate persons who have planned and decided 22 THE FOUR CORNERS everything ahead, the problem of our future means of getting a living is facing us with grim reality. . Some pupils do not see the need of a college education; they intend just to let things diift by and setrle in the same old grooves that their fathers have followed. They think that what was good enough for their fathers is good enough for them. This is looking at life from the wrong standpoint. This conservative spirit has to he conquered in order for the world to progress. In the middle ages this same attitude was met with, when every re¬ former was looked upon reprovingly; hut without these men we would still he strug¬ gling under a tyrannical yoke. Those un- pregressive pupils are in for a life of hard work, low wages, with nothing to show for their labors and no accomplishments to look hack to and speed them on along the thorny road to success. There are others who simply rely on their parents to pay their way through col¬ lege. To some of these college life seems a continual round of pleasures, dances, ath¬ letics, fraternities, and night clubs. They look for a good time, not for education. Tiny want tin pleasures of life without taking with them any of its bitterness and deceptions. For these, college is worse than useless. It is a curse. Their college years have been spent unfruit fully, in dis¬ sipated and valueless activities. They have acquired the habit of being dependent on someone who helps them out of their difficulties. Since they have never done anything to help themselves, they become weaklings who are broken down and crushed at the first stroke of ill-fortune, even though tliev sometimes have all the powers of wealth. Those who look at college as a real test, an obstacle to he overcome on the road to success, and who mean to work hard and learn, are the progressive young people which this generation needs. To my mind, to appreciate fully the value of a college education, the students should work their way through. The effort forms their character, it increases their reliability and self-confidence and gives them the neces¬ sary push to succeed. They get to know the value of the money they have worked so hard to earn and of tin education it buys for them. Obstacles ought not to discour¬ age us, but to make us strive harder for the end which we arc after, and when success comes it should he so much the sweeter for its difficulty. The advantage ' s of a college education cannot he over-estimated. The competi¬ tion in business is great, and those who are best equipped get tin positions while others have to he contented with what is left. A high school graduate ' s earning power doesn ' t compare with the money-making capacity of a college graduate. The ad¬ vancement of high school graduates is much slower than that of college-educated people, as a rule, because the latter have the broad background necessary for it. The social advantages of education are in¬ numerable. It brings you on the level with the best thinkers of the age. It gives you increased understanding and enables you to get more out of life. Above all, it renders you an asset to society and a real help to your fellow men and your country. U. J. A., ? 29. THE FOUR CORNERS 23 THE ADVENTURES OF A LOLLYPOP I was made from orange-juice 4 , sugar, and some sticky substance. I was made in a huge vat, from which I was run out into a culling machine, and from that into a great refrigerator to he hardened around a stick. After I was taken out of the re- fiigerator I was carrie d away in a truck to a iinle candy store. On the wav them I gel into a light with a lemon lollvpop. II started when lie said that lemon lollv- peps had it all over orange lollvpops. 1 did not agree with him. Put he was per¬ sistent ami at Iasi we cairn to blows over our disagreement. Lemon, lime and grape tried to hold us hack, hut all in vain. Hr hit me lirst with a left to the ribs that rack 1 me pretty badly, hut 1 came hack with right to the chin, lie took a long nut. lie had a big crack over his right nr. and a multitude of smaller cracks that I rked like the .Mississippi River basin. He was useless, now, hut it served him right, for he started it. I was sorry 1 hit him so hard, hut 1 was mad clear through to my stick. I was afraid the driver would Hud out about the light, hut he never did. 1 was put in a glass case in tin little store, where for a while the children chose every other lollvpop just because of tin cracked place in ni( . They ' d sav, ‘.‘That one ' s cracked, ' ' and I couldn ' t answer, though I wanted to, “I ' m just as sane as you ever were.” Finally, I was sold to a little hov. He gave me to a little girl, who did not eat me as I expected, but put me in a little box with a lot of notes. That ' s why I ' m alive still to tell this. I wonder why she did? S. II. L., ’32. BASKETBALL—AN IMPORTANT SCHOOL ACTIVITY When the basketball season starts there is usually a team representing nearly all schools and clubs. Nearly all the schools that follow basketball at all try to play an arranged schedule. Schools of the same size usually play each other, and there is often a keen, healthy rivalry between schools near each other. Basketball is a factor in bringing school groups together. It is a sport that most people enjoy watching and look forward to. Many townspeople follow the games, and nearly all the students feel anxious not to miss one home game. It is a line thing for a school to he cheering its team on to victory. Financially, basketball is one of the best games. Outdoor sports, such as football, baseball and track, cannot always be played on the day appointed because of weather conditions, hut it is almost always possible to play oil the scheduled basket¬ ball games. Even in bad weather, then, gate receipts are more certain than for some other sports. Moreover, in reference to equipment, it is one of the cheapest games that can he played. The gate re¬ ceipts from basketball in many schools arc used to help carry the other sports In the question as to whether it is the cleanest game played, I cannot say that it is, hut one thing is sure, it is less danger¬ ous than football and has no more chances of injury than baseball. The strenuous work of basketball sometimes tells on players and it must be admitted that it takes a stronger constitution than baseball, where half the time you are standing still, unless you are in the pitcher’s or the 24 the Earn cokxeus catcher ' s box. As a rule, moreover, players want to play a clean game. There are really no hard feelings between the players, al¬ though sometimes the desire to sec the team come out on top gets the better of the player. Hardly ever do players got into a real anger during the game, lmt if they do it only hinders in their team-play and is always liable to make their team lose rather than win. Basketball keeps up the school morale in several ways. It is the opinion of some that if a school does not have a winter sport like basketball, the students do not keep up so well in their studies. Also, the cooperation of playing in a team, or of -heeiing on your team, is good for any school. It docs the players good to have the pupils behind them, cheering them on to victory. Often the difference between victory and defeat is there. J. M. L, ' 29. SUNRISE What a wonderful sight is the sunrise each morn. When the sun is beginning to beam! Have you seen how it changes the amethyst skies. Into bright, crimson heavens, supreme? Have you seen how the sun turns the ocean to gold, As it plays o’er the great, rolling waves? How it soars o’er the tops of the whispering pines. And sends o’er the forest its rays? What a beautiful picture Old Nature can paint. With a sweep of her silvery wand! She can dash from the heavens the gay, twink¬ ling stars And bring forth the bright sunrise of Dawn. r l hen let’s think of the Present and Future alone. And outlaw the Past that has gone: And when each little “Star of Hope” fadeth, we know That ahead, there is Sunrise and Dawn. F. E. L„ ’31. GARDENS O poppies so brilliant, all in a row, And daffodils slender that I love to hoe. And wee, modest pansies in colors so gay. Reflect against ivy in greenest array. The phlox intermingled with mignonette sweet, Surrounded by astors, so graceful and neat. O glorious garden, in thy beauty so bright; You offer a charm of the purest delight! When the sun in its ocean of gold fades from sight, Methinks of the gardens in thy Palace of Light. E. L. C., ’30. SUMMER’S FAREWELL How I love the early morning In the merry month of June. When the air is filled with fragrance, And the songs of birds in tune. Never with a thought or worry. Never with a sigh or care, Everything is clothed in sunshine. Happiness is everywhere. All too soon the summer fadeth. As the autumn draweth nigh, And the northwinds seem to wrestle With the south winds, as they sigh. Soon the leaves are torn from branches, And the sky all bleak and grey. Then we say good-bye to summer. For Old Winter’s on the way. Short the days and dark the mornings, Evening shadows fall too soon. In the air the gentle murmur Of the merry Yule-tide tunes. C. E. A., ’31. IN THE DEAD OF THE NIGHT In the dead of the night so dark and still, I sat and watched by my window sill; I watched for the man in the moon to show, In the dead of the night his radiant glow. Yet as I watched and waited there, Alone in the world without a care. As I sat alone by my window sill What was it I saw rise over the hill? Was it the moon? Oh, no, indeed! No moon was like that. Why take such heed? Yet it was something and something dark. Yes, ’cause the hounds were beginning to bark. Oh! it’s a rider, valiant and bold, Seeking a princess of whom he was told. In the dead of the night I pondered alone: Might I be the princess to sit on his throne? M. C. S., ’31. 20 THE FOUR CORNERS THE BROOK Bubbling, gurgling, flowing on, Tireless from its steady flowing. Over twig and under thorn. With here and there a sparkle glowing. Merry Brook. Murmuring songs to Mother Nature, Chattering to the sweet, pert swallows. Calling, singing, laughing measures Bubbling o’er the golden shallows. Happy Brook. On its green, soft mossy bank Whetting, combing its silver wings, A laughing bluebird sings its thanks. While glistening silver water clings. Sparkling Brook. Twisting, winding all about. Sparkling, trickling in the green. Clearly, faintly calling out; So it will be plainly seen. Silver Brook. G. M.

There in the sweet cool meadows Was the scent of new-mown hay. Where the children in the springtime Had wandered blithe and gay. Then the sun set o’er the meadows, And the birds had gone to rest; Many laborers came home weary. Home,—the place they love the best. D. H. ( . 31 WINTER THOUGHTS When the air is cold and frosty. And the wintry North Wind blows. Then it makes you think of summer. When the scented flowers grow. You may sit and wish for springtime. But the winter has full sway. When you think of spring and roses. You’re just throwing time away. So let’s be happy and make merry While winter rolls away. And when the spring has wakened. We’ll be happy, blithe, and gay. M. C. C . ’.hi Os ' Since the 1D28 issue of Tiie Four ( kni:k s. Scarboro High School has taken part in all the sports which the Ciunbcr- laiul ( ' omitv Conference has sponsored, with the exception of baseball, taking part in the outdoor track meet, the indoor track meet, cross-country, swimming, and both bovs and girls basketball. TRACK An outdoor track meet was held in May, H 2S, for Conference teams, at the Decr- ing High School Athletic Field, Portland. As this was the iirst year that the Confer¬ ence had sponsored this sport, only four schools entered teams. Pennell institute easily won the meet with 45 points, Free¬ port High was second with 25 points, and Scarhoro High and Windham High trailed with 12 and S points, respectively. An oak shield was awarded to Pennell to be held for one year. The summary of the meet was as follows: Mile Run—Cole, Pennell, 1st; Sawyer, Pen¬ nell, 2cl; Winslow, Freeport, 3d. Time: 5 min., 16 2 5 sec. 440-yd. Dash—Sawyer, Pennell, 1st; Winslow, Freeport, 2d; Verrill, Pennell, 3d Time: 1 min., 3 sec. SSO-yd.

Plummer, ' 21, Snow, 21, Re Raps, ' 22. and Lyons. ' 22. Only three veterans remained from last year but by faithful practice we had a good condi¬ tioned team hv the time of our first run, which was held at Windham on October 10. We came out on the losing end of a 25-21 score, due principally to the fact that we were not used to such hilly travel¬ ing as we met here, 1 he order of iinisli was as follows: Badger, W : Lyons. S; Cobh, W; Ferguson, S: Plummer. W; Morse, 8; Randall, W: Libby, S; Lom¬ bard, W; McDonald, W; Deering, S; Hawkes, W; Lowell, W : . Libby, S; Morrell. W; Plummer. S: Marston, : Bradford, W: DeRaps.

I ' hrce letter men will lemain in school for next year ' s team and they should he a strong nucleus around which to build a good team as they were among our leaders in most of this year ' s races. 30 THE FOUR CORNERS BASKETBALL (BOYS) As our principal. Mr. Bessey, took over the coaching of the girls ' basketball team this year, he secured Bobby Agger of Port¬ land to coach the boys. Coach Agger was selected as all-Bates-Tournameut guard for the last three years. When he started practice during the sec¬ ond week of November, he had only three veterans around whom to build a team, namely, (’apt. Morse, 7 29, Bowley, ' 20, and J. Libbv, ' 2D, but he developed several men new to the game and as a result our school has had one of the best seasons for several years. Our squad consisted of the veterans named and Urquhart, ' 30, 1 leer¬ ing, ’30. Ferguson, ' 30, W. Libby, 30, Douglas, ' 20, Douglas, ' 31, Olesen, ' 31, Snow, 31. Craig, 32, Lvons, 32, and Bice, ' 32. Before our regular schedule started we played several class games, in which the Seniors were champions. The Seniors whitewashed the Sophs by a score of 24-0, which reminds us of a football rather than a basketball score. The hardest-fought battle was between the Juniors and the Frosh, in which the latter were victorious. 17-10. A marked feature of our games this year is that our opponents have been held to small scores, with the exception of the Standish game at Standish. but this was due largely to the fact that three f our regulars were removed from the game on personals. We trimmed every team in the League, with the exception of Standish and Greely, and held them to three point victories on our home floor. In our league games our opponents failed to average six¬ teen points in points scored against us.

It gives you perfect lubrication all the time—even on the coldest morning. That ' s why you get 2.000 miles with one filling of the crankcase—that’s why you use the same grade winter and summer.
