One must walk all around a thing to see it from every angle and make the best decision. NA word fitly spoken is like apples -of gold in pictures of silver.'--Proverbs 25-ll Not so long ago a group of young women were engaged in the interesting pastime of naming the heart's dearest -wish. One de- sired above everything else that she possessed a marvelous voice so that she might hold audiences spellbound. Another longed for the power to reproduce accurately on canvas the beauties of nature, the emotions expressed on human countenances, and the imageries of fancy. A third said, nAll that would be wonderful, but, as for me, let me be always clever enough to speak the right word at the right time so that I may be an agreeable companion for anyone in any mood. If a person is sad, let me be able to express com- forting thoughts that will help him. If he is gay, let me say just the right thing to enhance rather than curb his gaiety. And for any mood between these two extremes let me have the under- standing word at my tonguets end.H Was the third girl not wise? Is not the improving of one's vo- cabulary a worth while purpose? It is said that a word is not truly one's own till he has mas- tered it well enough to use it in conversation. Hobbies are very popular to- day. People are collecting all sorts of articles--buttons, auto- graphs, coins, stamps. Why not words? with all thy collecting, collect words, There is much to be said in favor of it. Many hobbies require money--not so with words.l Anyone can be striv- ing constantly to improve his speech without the expenditure of wealth. Nor is talent neces- sary. To be sure a person who has an inclination toward fluent speech will make greater progress but anyone can improve his speech surprisingly once he has under- taken the task. Many hobbies lose their charm to a person as he grows older but he who is mental- ly alert enough to be ever watch- ful for the better word or phrase will never grow tired of that di- version. Then, too, as he grows older, he has more experiences and so more thoughts to express. Perhaps in crowded living quar- ters there is no room for collec- tions of birds' eggs or stamp al- bums but where is the man who has no room for more words? If one adopts the hobby of collecting words and practices their use daily, he is improving himself by gaining self-reliance and poise and making himself a more Hagreeable companion for anyone in any mood.U WBut fairer than all others, A word, when fitly placed, Is like to golden apples In silver pictures traced.n Zela B.

Not long ago an entirely new element was discovered called ra-A dium, because of the rays of radi- ation from it, which was destined to become one of the most useful of all elements and certainly the most wonderful. It is a metal closely resembling barium and in fact, what is sometimes called ra- dium is in reality the salt radium bromide.. Radium and all its salts are extremely radiocative, henceg the term radiocativity. Severalf otner elements have these same ra-. dioactive properties but all to at lesser degree. Numerous experi-Q ments show that this action isf caused by the spontaneous emissiong of two kinds of electrically. charged particles, called alpha and beta. The emission of betaf particles is accompanied by pulsa- tions in the ether called gamma rays. The fgamma rays have the lcasti ionizing and photographing power, but they are the most pene- trating. These rays exert a very powerful pressure on all living matter, and it has been thought that they would be useful in cur- ing various diseases. The results however, have not been as success- ful as was first hoped, but radium seems to be beneficial in treating certain kinds of cancer and simi- lar Qrowtns. It is very expensive because of its scarcity, and an ounce is said to cost approximate- ly 34,252,500 or pl50,000 per gram.

If a tube contain- ing a radium compound is left a short time on a photographic plate wrapped in black paper, or even drawn slowly across it, an image is produced when the plate is de- veloped. Thirdly, radium compounds ionize the surrounding air, that is, make it a conductor of elec- tricity. And finally, radium compounds make certain substances luminous. Helium and radon are coming off continually from all radiu compounds independently ature and other conditions. Thus we conclude that the radium atom is disintegrating slowly and while disintegrating forms radio lead. This action cannot be hastened or retarded in any way. Of course this transformation means that radium is slowly disappearing, but there will be ages which we are unable to dream about before it entirely exhausts itself. of temper- This precious , element is found to a very slight degree in England, plentifully in Bohemia, Colorado, and Utah.

Edgecomb 1957 SHAKESPEAHE'S ENVIRONLENT It has often been asked how Shakespeare could have written his dramas which each generation finds more wonderful than did the last. In general there are two theories to account for Shakespeare. Some claim that by his genius alone he came into his power, that in his ease Nall came from within.n Others believe that Hall came from? I without,U that it is his environ- ment which we must study in order to understand his works. There is no doubt that Shakespeare, was a genius. Surely no writer would produce such plays his writings a great deal. 5 He studied the people about him, their feelings. In writing thus of his own age hex unconsciously reflected all people of all ages, for inner man neven changes. w There are two outward influ- ences which were powerful in de4 veloping the genius of Shakespearl ---Stratford-on-Avon, the eharmin lx w as his and not be a genius, but, his surroundings also influenced 6 6 1 I L I 1. Q 9 5 I E I I little village where Shakespeare was born 'and where he spent his last days, and London, the great 'metropolis, where he earned his living, first as a general helper in the theatre, then as an actor, and finally as playwright. In Stratford natural influences sur- reunded him. In London he studied the artificial man who lived in unnatural surroundings. Let us see how Shakespeare's environment influenced his works. In any biography of Shakespeare it is hinted that his marriage was an unhappy one. In numerous dramas there are sarcastic references to marriage. The nurse in uRomeo and Juliet,H whose endless gossip and vulgarity cannot quite hide a kind heart, is probably the reflection of a nurse whom Shakespeare once knew. L Tales of the old Roman camps and military roads appealed great- ly to his imagination. In uJulius Caesarn and UCoriolanusn he wrote more convincingly of Rome than did many Roman writers. In UTitus Andronicusn and nRichard IIIH he fell under the influence of Marlowe, another playwright of the day. His last dramatic effort was written after the return of some shipwrecked sailors from the un- known Bermudas. These survivors brought withhthom to England tales of mysterious noises which they thought came from spirits and dev- ils. Shakespeare took their story and around it wrote uThe Tempest.N Although Shakespeare was a genius, his works have lived be- cause his ability to absorb the elements of his environment made them more human, more applicable to the peoples of any generation. Charlotte R, Dolloff 1957 W I 1 MEDICINE Medicine is the science and art of treating and preventing ' disease and lessening the effects of injuries. Of all the learned professions the practice of medicine is the most ancient and the most universally respected. Mankind has always been subject to disease and injur- ies, and from the earliest times the care and treatment of such af- fections have been relegated to certain classes of society sup- posed to be especially skilled in such matters. The earliest Grecian practice was more a combination of religion and philosophy than a system of reme- dial measures. The temples which were erected in honor of AEscula- pius, the Greek god of the healing art, were' always located in airy, sheltered, healthful places from which type came the modern sanato- riums. The remedial measures con- sisted largely of gym astics, bathing, including running bare- foot in the grass, dieting and rest cures. Hippocrates, who was at one time a priest of AEsculap1- us, laid the foundation of scien- tific medicine in Greece. It is uncertain whether or not he him- self wrote all or any of the great work which was credited to him, but it represents his teaching and is the only record of ancient Gre- cian medicine. Modern medicine may be considered as dating from about the sixteenth century. From this period on, the advance in scientific knowledge, and in the knowledge of medical science in particular, was rapid and more accurately recorded. The invention and improvements of the microscope led to closer observa- tions. The works of Harvey, Jenner, Morton, Pasteur, Laveran, Koch, and Koller added a great deal to the advancement of medical science. QSJLJLJLJL I! A II ll Among some of the noteworthy medi- cal discoveries of the centuries of progress are the inventions of: the X ray, by which medicine ap- propriated and used the discovery as a diagnostic method of the greatest valueg the ophthalmoscope ans.une stethoscope, both of which instruments instituted a new per- iod in physical diagnosis, the anaesthetic value of sulphuric e- ther greatly incfeased the field of surgery and the safety of operative measures. Practical medicines are based science of anatom , largely on the physilolgy, histology, pharmacolo- gy, bacteriology and also chemis- try and botany. all of which have a relationship' 'tice and are with medical prac- therefore known as Vthe medical sciences, Various schools of medicine have arisen from time to time which have served a great and useful purpose. The remedial systems have attained considerable popu- larity, particularly the mental healing cults and osteopathy. Elizabeth H.

Many people are inquiring concerning the purpose of such a park. Let us consider the bene- fits and purposes. The park in- cludes the four beautiful Otter Ponds. The Big Otter Pond, the Little Otter Pond, the Half Moon, and Sand Pond. There will be trails, wooded roads, bathing beaches, and ample room for the lovers of nature. There will be a ball ground which is owned by the town. Tennis courts and other recreational equipment are to be constructed. Besides the summer recrea- tion and camping grounds there will be toboggan chutes, outdoor fire places, and many snow shoe and wood with ski trails throughout the The ponds are to be stocked fish and the area which is : new swampy is to be reconstructed for the breeding of birds, rab- bits, and other wild life. This project is being spon- sored by the Portland Mater Dis- trict as W. P. A. work. During the month of February there were about one hundred men employed. Picnic grounds will be pro- vided for picnic parties and oth- ers who might wish to make use of an area as attractive and as equipped as that now under well con- struction. Patricia A. Dole 1940 FOREST COUSEnVATlON Man is directly responsible for much of the decrease in for- est resources. In pioneer days forests seemed abundant beyond human needs. Trees were so nu- 1 I i I I x 4 s I n merous that there was little need for care in cutting them or using wood. Land had to be cleared to provide farms and to build cit- ies. But too much cutting was done without thought for the fut- ure. Often lumbering methods were such that the smaller trees were destroyed, or the fires that followed lumbering burned over the land so completely that it is still nonproductive. The damage done was usually not the result of a single fire but repeated fires which gradually killed all tree growth, so that no seed trees were left. In time other vegetation disappeared until fin- ally all the humus, or plant food was destroyed. There are in the United States today about eighty million acres of idle land best suited to grow forest crops. Fire destroys more trees than are caused by use. Most of the forest fires are caused by man's carelessness. Lightning and other occurrences which can not be prevented account for an bout ten percent of the forest fires. There are two hundred thou- sand kinds of insects which are known to attack forest trees. They do damage of about one hun- dred nillion dollars a year. Some live on the leaves. Some insects larvae may bore into thc bark of the' tree cutting off the flow of sap, ruining the ree for lumber. Fungi is a disease of the trees. To stop this you must cut down and destroy the infected trees. Waste in the use of forest resources is as bad as other waste. This is done by the care- lessness of the people who cut down the trois. . . L- In this connection it should be pointed out that Christmas trees are valuable forest prod- ucts and their use should be en- couraged. Such trees produce good crops. horever, their cutting if properly done, gives the remain- ing trces needed room for proper development. Geneva I. Harean ,l959 JOSEPH HENRY AND His CONTRIQUTIONS TO SCIENCE Joseph Henry was born in Al- bany, New York, in 1797, and died in 1878. He lived on the edge of the frontier, where there was almost no chance for scientific study. In the early part of his life, he was interested in dramatics. One day he found a book on nNatura1 Phi1osophy.n This book changed his whole life. As he read it, he resolved to devote his life to gaining scientific knowledge. In his studies, he specialized in mathematics, in physical science, and in medicine. Joseph Henry especially liked to experiment with magne- tism. He showed special skill in constructing apparatus for lift- ing large weights by magnetic attraction. This was the begin- ning of the electric lifting crane. Tons and tons of material are picked up and held securely by one of these electric lifting cranes as easily as we can hold on to an apple. Sturgeon really invented the electromagnet. Because he didn't find out enough about it, Joseph Henry igot the credit for invent- ing it. All he really did was perfect it. The electromagnet is the foundation of numerous electrical inventions. Its essential parts are the core which is a soft bar of iron or steel, the coil which is an insulated wire wound around the core, and the current which must be direct. When the circuit is closed and a direct current is passed through the wire, the core becomes magnetized, but re- mains magnetized only as long as the current A flows through the wire or core. The strength of the magnet depends upon two things: the number of coils of wire around the core' and the strength of the current. Some devices which depend entirely upon the eleetromagnet are the doorbell or electric bell, the radio, automatic elec- trical switehes, and sound motion pictures. Without the elcctromagnet, modern communication would be im- possible, because the electric bell, the telegraph sounder, and the telephone receiver all depend upon it. Two of the most im- portant and useful employmcnts of the electromagnet are in the op- eration of the dynamo and elec- tric motor. Here the electro- magnet furnishes thc magnetic field which is essential to the operation of each. The 'dynamo generates practically all the electricity which is so essential to our civilization today. Samuel Morse invented the telegraph from the discoveries of Joseph Henry. The principle of the telegraph is nearly the same as that of the electric bell. The telephone transmitter changes sound into electrical en- ergy, but the telephone is de- pendant upon the electromagnet to change the electrical energy back into sound. Joseph Henry was called one of the great pioneers of science. Other men, such as Samuel Morse, Alexander Bell,Guglielmo Marconi, and Michael Faraday, invented devices using the foundation which he laid. Evelyn R.

Since the machine cost upwards of sixty dollars, the Student Council voted to pay the remaining amount. This machine has been in constant use throughout the spring term. It can clearly be seen that lecture and demonstration by films, will make the student un- derstand more clearly the modern view of the industrial world. Also this year, we were given a piano. This kindly con- tribution came from the Sebago Lake Church Association. It will replace our old one in the Assem- bly Hall. For the benefit of those in- terested in Major and Minor League baseball, Mr. Orin Dolloff subscribed for the high school, the Sporting News Weekly. This paper contains a summary of the games played, schedule of the coming games, general ,baseball statistics, and information about the Major and Minor Leagues. In due regard to the Parent- Teacher's Association, the Sebago Lake Church Association, Mr. Dolloff, and those people who have contributed time and labor in the presentation of these gifts, the students and the fac- ulty of Standish High School ex- press their gratitude.

Q evxx E CHARLES AUGUSTUS LINDBERGH Charlest Augustus Lindbergh was born in Detroit, Michigan, on February 2, 1902, Most of his youth was spent in Little Falls, Minnesota. Lindber h was educated in the public sohoofs of Detroit, Little Falls, and Washington, D. C. His chief interest in school lay along mechanical and scientific lines. Consequently after 'graduating from high school, he took a course in Mechanical Engineering at the of Engineering of the Uni- of Wisconsin at Madison. College versity It was while attending this that he became intensely school interested in aviation. After study of a year and a half at this University, he left to enroll in a flying school at L1ncoln,Nebraska. In 1924 he enrolled as a fly? ing cadet in the Army Air Service Reserve school, at San Antonio. The following year he entered the employ of the Robertson Aircraft Company at St. Louis. He joined the Missouri National Guard, and had been promoted to Captain in both the Army Reserve and National Guard. He began flying on the St. Louis--Chicago air-mail route, in 1926. During which work he was four times forced to parachute jumps. Here he greatly emphasizes the value of the parachute which has in part helped the progress of aviation. He-secured in St. Louis the necessary backing for a transat- lantic attempt, and bought a mono- plane, nThe Spirit of St. Louis,U later famous, through Lindbergh's way of speaking of himself and the plane, as UWe.' With this plane he made the first' non-stop flight from the United States to Europe Knear Paris, France? and the first solo transatlantic flight. It marked a E f : U u I 7t'7f Qew standard of reliability in glanes and engine. 2 He was received with honor in Qaris, Brussels, and London, where he won numerous awards. 2 Mryon T. Herrick, United States Ambassador to France says bf Lindbergh: nFlying was his irade, his means of livelihood. But the love of it burned in him with fine passion, and now that his fame will give him a wider gcope of usefulness, he has an- nounced that he will devote him- self wholeheartedly to the ad- Qancement of aeronautios. His first step in that direction is the publication of his book, nWe,u and no one can doubt that its in- fluence will be of enormous value in pushing on man's conquest in ihe air.H 2 In 1929, Lindbergh married Miss Anne Morrow, daughter of the American Ambassador to Mexico. From that time his contributions to technical knowledge were con- stant and valuable. Among them were air explorations of much of Central America and a record breaking transcontinental flight with Mrs. Lindbergh, which demon- strated unexpected advantages for distance flying in upper air lev- els above storm areas. 2 Because of the kidnapping of his first child, Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., in this country, Lindbergh has made his home a- broad. Q Every American thrills with a glowing pride at the thought that out from our country has come such a famous one, and that the whole world hails Charles Lindbergh, not only as a brave aviator, but as an example of American . ' idealism, character, and conduct. ' , A Elizabeth H.-Bnazier . ,Ll937 ' f w . W I L L R O A peculiar sense of national loss recently shook the world. Especially did we of the United States feel great sorrow for we lost a man whose generosity and humble wisdom will ever be en- graved in our hearts. This man was will Rogers, movie star, stage celebrity, wit and philosopher, author, radio comedian and commen- tator, diplomat and magazine para- graoher, a man everybody knows and wishes to know more about. He was endeared to all sorts of people by his inimitable and genial wit. His rise to fame was slow. He began as a professional 'gbwbgy in vaudeville, twirling his lasso and cracking his Jokes. His Lhu- morous philosophy of life was en- tirely original. He was rgapgble of criticizing executives or oth- erwise in such a manner that the objects of his mirth nearly always Joined in the general laughter. His remarks were not always com- plimentary, either, it was the manner in which they were made. We are all familiar with his stage play-acting and appearances in motion pictures. H s perfor- mances in such pictures as NDav1d Harum,H Wln Old Kentuckyu and NSteamboat 'Round the Bendn can never be forgotten. All his acts were a part of his versatility, and he carried them off in such a manner that they were beyond crit- icism. J He worked on Broadway a great while for Florenz Ziegfield before entering pictures. His career started when he was doing a cowboy act for Ziegfield. His lasso be- came entangled around his feet and up until that time the act had not been going very well. The audi- ence was laughing at him for his attempts to free himself from his larlat. Rogers realized he must do something so he began to mum- Niiii 1 i V I G E R S ble about some things he had seen .in the papers. The witty change 'to humor went over in a big way since that time many of his ,and ispeeches have begun--NAll I know's iwhat I read in the papers.H Q He was among the highest paid gof all stars and often his money iwent for charity. His newspaper iwork is said te have netted him lS200,000 a year. For his radio !broadcasts he was estimated to Shave received S750,000. His late film contract was worth approxi- mately S8,000 a week. Upon his death his wealth was set at nearly Tsix million dollars. He owned a number of buildings, one being a 'spacious ranch in Southern Cali- dfornia. He also owned some land ,in Oklahoma, his native state. I There were a few unforget- ,table incidents in his life. One one of New aday he was walking in :York's many parks when he qenanoea :to see John D. Rockefeller sitting gon a park bench. Rogers walked up land casually handed John D. a idime. f In Claremore, Oklahoma a hotel was named after Will Rogers, ?a six story building which, the !comedian boasted, had more bath frooms than Buckingham Palace. Q Nl used to envy General Grant hnd Jesse James because they had gcigars named after them. But, phuoks, now I've kinda got it on f'em,N he said. Q Once he was asked if he read iany fiction, to which he replied, 3nSure, the newspapers.N I 1 In 1951 he was seriously men- Qtioned as a presidential candidate iof the United States. He outward- gly refused with remarks to the ef- ffect that he was not smart enough. ,His popularity, however, spread Qthroughout the world and he was I Wilii N known to the President and Mrs. Roosevelt as NW1ll.N While in Washington he often stayed at the White House. To show the extent of his Jo- king, he even gave an epitaph for his gravestone in 1950. Ye said, Hwhen I die, my epitaph, or what- ever you call those signs on grave stones, is going to read: 'I Joke about every prominent man of my time, but I never met a man I did- n't l1ke.' UI am proud of that,U Mr. Rogers added. HI can hardly wait to die so it can be carved. And when you come around to my grave, you'll probably find me sitting there proudly reading it.U This great comedian of sunny and happy temperament was to die all too soon, but he died in a manner he would have desired for flying was his favorite ambition. It is certain that we shall not look upon Will Rogers' like a- gain. Let us hope, however, that in the constant surprises of our native talent,s some one may arise to help us as he did to keep us ever in good spirits and by whole- some laughter make this world seem a better place to live in.

The ibazooka was made of two pieces of tgas pipe, some wire, and a tin gfunnel.

In the year l867 in Warsaw, Poland a little girl, christened Marie Skledowska, was born of Polish--French descent. Little did anyone realize how full of hardship and disappointments her life was to be--or yet the great triumph that was to be hers. Her parents were teachers in a Warsaw University. Her mother was a very understanding and lov- able woman. She died when Marie was nine years old. This proved to be Marie's first great sorrow. Her father devoted his entire time to his work now, and Marie, the youngest of five children, kept up in her studies and graduated from high school at the age of fifteen. Everything taught in the schools at that time was of questionable the fact that the en- was under Russian Pupils lost all joy even being allowed to Polish. Marie had value due to tuecmmuy management. of life, not converse in easily learned the sciences of mathematics and physics as far as they were taken into consideration in the Polish institutions. When seventeen years old she worked as a governess in a Russian family. She held this position for three years, her evenings de- voted to study. During this time she organized a small class for village children who could not be educated under the Russian govern- ment, chancing the danger of pos- sible imprisonment or deportation to Siberia. She was interested in liter- ature and sociology as well as in science, however she eventually chose science and began a solitary study which was beset with diffi- culties. She then spent a year with her father in Warsaw where she had access to a small laboratory directed by a cousin. At times she was encouraged by unhoped-for- success, at others she would be in deepest despair because of fail- urea-and,accidents. 1 Next, she went to live in Paris, with a married sister but soon, with limited resources, she pbtained a dingy garret room where she stayed under very trying cgn- ditions. I E However, this gave her pense of liberty and independence, and she was determined to make the best because of of every opportunity. poor training in math- ematics, it was difficult to carry pn at the Sorbonne, where she worked her way by scrubbing lab- pratory bottles and caring for a furnace, but she made up this dif- fiCulty and graduated in first rank as nLicenciee es sciences physiquesu in 1895 and in second rank as licenciee es sciences mathematiquesn in 1894. Her brother-in-law referred to these years of struggle as nthe heroic years of my sister-in-law's life.U 3 She first met Pierre Curie in l894. They were attracted to each other because both desired existences devoted entirely to Q - - - lcience. Before their marriage, however,n she entered one of the physics laboratories of the Borbonne and obtained her doctors thesis. Q It was necessary for her to study still more in the laboratory because she desired to teach young girls. She took the required ex- amination in August, 1896, after having devoted several months to study, and received first rank. Q The principal distraction from the close laboratory consist- ed in walks and bicycle rides in the country. As both Marie and fierre Curie took great joy in the but-of-doors these outings were always welcome. E In 1897.theirnfirst.daughter5 Irene, was born. It was extremely difficult to care for her and not 3 give up her beloved work but she! yaliantly fulfilled both of her duties. I Q It was entirely, by accident that radium was at last discover- ed. She had decided on a theme for her doctorate. Henri Antoine Hecquerel ihad ,tunintentrenally left a piece of uranium ore on a photographic plate in the dark room of his laboratory. Later he noticed that the plate had chang- ed under the spot where the ore was placed. It was as if .lfput had fallen on it. Becquerel also found that these rays can dis- charge an electroscope. Marie and Pierre were very interested in this new phenomenon and Madame Curie resolved to undertake a special study of it. She was not long in obtain- ing interesting results. Her determinations showed that the emission of the rays was an atom- ic property of the uranium. To- gether then, they undertook the analysis of a pitchblende from St. Joachimsthal. In a few months they separated from this pitchblende a substance more active than uranium, and in July 1898 they announced the existence of anew substance which Madame Curie named 'polonium' for her beloved Poland. In December 1898 they announced the discovery of radium, but much had to be done to it yet before their work was completed. They had no money, no suit- able laboratory in which to work, but with the permission of the Austrian government they obtained a great deal of pitchblende at the uranium plant of St. Joachims- thal withlwhichTto start their great work. The director of the School of Physics could offer them no better quarters than an old shed which had served as a dis section room for the School of Med icine, where they might work. The glass roof offered only partial shelter from the rain, and in win- ter the building was so 'ilbitter cold, it was almost unbearable, nevertheless, they withstood the weather even having to prepare many of their meals in the shed. Madame Curie said afterwards, Hlt was in this miserable old shed, in spite of hardships, that we passed the happiest years of our lives, devoting our entire days to our work.N She would spend whole days mixing a boiling mass with a heavy iron rod and at the end of the day would be broken with fatigue. Then one morning in the year 1902 Madame Curie stepped from her shack of a laboratory with the greatest secret of the cen- tury literally, in the palm of her hand. From a ton of pitch- blende she finally possessed a decigram of radium chloride. It had taken her four years, but radium had been found and it was a woman's gift to the world This demonstration was also the basic of the new science of radioactivity. Pierre then accepted a pos- ition as assistant professor at the Sorbonne, and Marie was made a professor at the Normal Superior School for young girls at Sevres. But growing notoriety allow- ed them little peace, and in 1905 they were awarded the Nobel prize jointly with Bacquerel. Due to this they were asked to lecture a great deal and travelled through Europe fulfilling these demands. In 1904 their second daugh- ter, Eve Denise, was born, and in the same year Pierre was appoint- ed to a new Sorbonne. position in the All went when Pierre was well until 1906 fatally struck by a cab, leaving Marie to bring up the children and to carry on her life work. She then, succeeded Pierre at the Sorbonne in 1906, the first time a woman had held that position, and two years lat- er was named titular professor. In 1921 she was invited to the United States to receive a gift of radium with which to make researches. President Harding him self presented her with this pre cious gift, and she was greatly impressed by all she saw in Ameriea ca. Honorary degrees were shower- ed upon her by a great many American colleges. She returned to France and carried on her work only a few years longer for her health failed and in 1954 Madame Curie died trusting to her daughter, Irene, any future research to be carried on in the possible analysis of the Substance 'polonium'. Not only did people of foreign nations be- come wealthy because of radium, but Americans benefited as well. However, Madame Curie did not even attempt to grasp power and wealth for herself or her g children through this discovery. She mere- ly said, nl gave the secret to the world. It was not to enrich any- one. It was for all people.U Amy I. Lewis 1957 ., - tt. .

Mr. and Mrs. Patri and their ten children. George, seventeen, the oldest, and Ruth Alice, hardly more than a month old. Mrs. Pat- ri was a hard-working woman who carried all of the family's bur- dens bravely, and enjoyed doing it even though she was forced to work under the worst conditions any mother could work under. She was about forty now, and Mr. Pat- ri was nearing his fiftieth year although he still worked hard for less than a dollar a day. George was a large boy for his age and helped cheerfully to bear a large portion of the family's burdens. Mr. Patri was working at the mine. It was his day to go down in the shaft, and loosen the coal. This was one of the most dangerous tasks a miner could do. George was helping ether miners. Urs. Patri was doing her daily work, and all of the children who could .were picking up waste pieces of coal, while others were helping with the house work. All was well, and the miners who were working in the mine were hurrying to get their work done because the day was coming to an end. Suddenly Frank, the 'head man who operated the motors above the pit, noticed that the timbers which held the iron bars up were falling. Something must be done, the machinery had stopped. There was a loud crash, the shrieking of the imprisoned men was heard. Then all was quiet. The men who were working above stood still, and then tho shrieks of the si- ren were heard. Mothers, fath- ers, children, and everyone who had someone who was dear to them in the mine, came running to the scene. Mrs. Patri was among the panic stricken crowd. . She had Ruth Alice lin her arms with sev- eral of her other children beside and around her. They did not J 1 3 4 1 K i P i 1 . 4 1 5 i i 3 E 1 I I 5 4 2 1 1 l A r -I I n ! THE MINES Dole 1940 know that their daddy was below the earth imprisoned, perhaps not able to breathe. Perhaps one of the deavy timbers, or iron bars was on him pinning him to the ground. The miners were working ra- pidly to get the bodies out of their traps. Several of the men went down on the broken shaft and looked around, but to no avail. One miner who appeared to be the boss was reading the list of names of the men who were below. That minute one of the miners came out of the snaft with a man who had been in front of the mine working. Every one fathered a- round to see if this man was their father, uncle, friend, or neighbor The bringing of men out of the pit continued for a few minutes, but what seemed to the anxious Qrgwd to be a long, long time. Finally, the last man was brought out, this was Mr. Patri. This was the fa- ther of ten children, and tae wor- thy husband of a fine,hhrd.working. woman. This man was Patri, a for- eigner, but a fine one. He was dead. He had been pinned to the ground by a large timber, and was penned in a corner shut off H from the rest of the pit by a huge pile of waste coal. The fumes were poi sonous, and were probably the greatest cause of his death. Mrs. Patri knelt over her hus band weeping. She had lost the most precious of her possessions, She would probably live in the lit- tle mining town, with her ten chil- dren to confort her. George would choose the work which his '.father had chosen before him. George now had a large portion 'of wthoifame ily's burdens to bear. He A must help his mother feed, clothe, and care for the children. Mrs, Patri was getting older now, but she still had a great abundance of hope. She would hope, that he would be successful as a miner, and it would not be God's will that he should die as his father.

The greatest one of them was a telegram from uThe Sporting Newsn telling me I was one of the ten winners to receive a trip to the Baseball School. The night before I left I was given a surprise party by the Steep Falls Baseball team Cteam I have caught for formallyl and I had friends from Sebago Lake. a grand trip on the train and saw some beautiful scenery. I saw land and a few houses that had been covered with water from the flood. On the train I met num- people that bers of interesting had come from different parts of the country. When I arrived in Hot Springs there few boys there. I at my hotel were only a roomed with three other boys who were also Sporting News winners. Almost all of the boys were there by the end of the first week. the Movietonc Camerman took our pictures. The first day I was there I took a walk and looked the town over and then went up into the Ozak where the famous hot springs are. The water was so hot I be- lieve you could boil an egg. The first day of School we had the pleasure of meeting UDiz- zyn Dean, Roger Hornsby and ULonH Warneke. Every night we had a lecture at the school for about two hours. The first week of school it was so cold we had to, practice ball in the high school gym, dur- ing this week we had our pictures ftaken with all of the instruc- gtors. v Q Each afternoon for the first ?two weeks we took hikes of about five miles. One afternoon while we were on a hike we had the pleasure of seeing two great box- Eing Champions HBarneyU Ross and 'UTonyn Canzoneri. Q In the last four weeks of 7school the 570 boys were divided into sixteen teams and into two ileagues with eight teams in each league. f ? The team I was on was the TSporting Newsn or called the WBrownsn in the American League. Each team played a schedule of twenty-two games. The Browns won the Championship of the American League and played the Cubs in the World Series and won two out of the three games. 3 I was very fortunate to boive a contract to Rome, New PG'- York. Of the 370 boys that at- tended the school 102 of them re- peived contracts. .

If the student has dictated the correct answers, of course, he receives good rank. The dicta- phone saves time by avoiding writ- ing and speaking and removes any possibility of copying answers. Instead of the pupils, the teachers change rooms. Stenogra- phers take down notes and do the outlining for the students. Latin and French interpreters accompany the language students. At recess a button is pushed by the teacher and the victrola or radio is turned on. An electric record changer is valued very highly by the school. A hot lunch is served to every student who de- sires it. At the end of school a pri- vate car takes each student home. Raymond H.

She was now seventy- two but she had been blind since she was three. Her father had been killed in a power mill ex- plosion, and Anna's mother was forced to work in a munitions factory to support them. Anna had one .sister younger than she who led her each day to a small brook, which babbled gently along through the meadow below her house. Anna loved music dearly and to her this little brook seemed to sing a song, a song which probably no other person would have noticed. It seemed to be a song of the soul. As it flowed it carried with it the sadness and grief of many people. Anna also played the old parlor organ and sang, because although she could not see she practiced until she could play by feeling each note. One day Anna seemed more melancholy than usual as she sat by the brook. She acted very strangely and suddenly she began to sing. It was a lovely song which she had heard many years before at a concert which she had attended with her father before his death. It was Shubert's im- mortal HSerenade.n Suddenly someone spoke to her she arose terrified and start -ed to flee wildly toward the brook but someone caught her. At last he spoke, but he was a stranger, she had never heard his voice before. He spoke of the song she had been singing and of its beauty, telling her that he played the violin. They talked for a long time and after this they met many times. Anna's mother who knew nothing of this meeting had worked and saved a long time to take Anna to a fa- mous specialist in New York City. At last she had enough money to pay expenses. Anna was overjoyed when she learned of this, but she was also , , I I. a little af aid to think that af- ter years yof darkness she would see the light. Two months passed during which Anna lay in a great hospi tal in Jew fork. She often won- dered if she would ever really See and if on her return to Ham- burg she would again see Ludwig. One day a strange man came to the hospital and begged to see her. He was refused at first, but fi- nally after much pleading he was admitted. It was a joyful meeting this one between Ludwig and Anna. Be- fore he left, however, he told her a story, a strange story. He said, long ago in Germany when he was a very small boy he had been severely burned. For a long time they did not expect him to live, and only by the aid of a great surgeon was his life saved. How- ever, he had been so severely burned about the face and head it left deep scars, which would re- main forever. With these scars he was disfigured beyond recogni- tion. The story was ended, and a- gain- we go back to the little hospital room. Anna had listened very intently for she loved Lud- wig dearly. She was the first to speak. Uhy dear, nothing can matter to me any longer, my song of the soul is ended.' nBut these scars are so deep Anna. I am hideous.n nHideous to some people but not to me. Your life is part of my song, you shall see. The doc- tor interrupted themg now he had come to remove the bandages. As he removed layer after layer of bandages the curtain was to be letting the light Finally a doctor the last row of snatched the cur- way to the top of raised slowly in gradually. slowly removed bandages.

Al- though she could not see she had found a great happiness which ,could not be equaled. That song, ithat song of the soul was fin- iished at last and accompanied by the golden strains of Ludwig's singing stradivarius would live forever. I I Q A.

Scooping it into his pocket, the stranger disappeared through the window and vanished silently into the night. 'Jack hastily packed a little grub, and his service revolver, and despite the intense pain in his side resulting from the man's kick, started in im ediate pur- suit. Traveling all night, with but one stop for rest, he gained steadily on his quarry. Coming upon him early in the morning, Jack called for him to surrender, whereupon the man reached for his It was nearly closing time and Jack was pleasantly anticipa- ting his coming supper.

D.J: Several listeners have written in frOm English asking us about Samuel Johnson, that famous author of the only Dictionary which can be read with pleas ure. Today we are to interview a woman who has devoted the past several hours ofher.li fe to the study of English Literaturei She has kindly consented to tell us of Johnson's opini on of Shakespeare. Miss ------- ------- CClap! Clap! Clapil Authority on Johnson: I certainly am very happy to be CAnnie M.l with you today. It pleases me greatly that there is an English class who wishes to know more of Johnson than the information'their text book supply. Interviewer: We are very glad to have you with us. But first, will you tell us why the life of Johnson interests you? Authority on Johnson: When I first read of how Samuel Johnson became famous despite his many handicaps, I . immediately became enthused. Interviewer: I think a good many English classes have wondered why anyone as eccentric as Johnson was not put in an institution. Authority on Johnson: He surely was eccentric. Even in his works he had a style all his own. After his first few successful writings the rest were received eagerly, no matter how poorly they were conceived. Interviewer: In his New Edition of Shakespeare I believe he failed to write convincinfly on that subject. Authority on Johnson: The principal reason, I believe, Johnson's failure in his work, was that not fully prepared for it, he was quite of his subject. great for he was ignorant Interviewer: Wasn't it Johnson's task to acquaint himself with his topic? Authority on Johnson: Of course, but he haQ promised to write on a subject which he did not particularly like. Interviewer: Everyone supposedly knows that he put off . the writing of this edition of Shakespeare for years. Authority on Johnson: Yes, if it hadn't been for the Cock Lane A Ghost episode perhaps he never would have written I it. Interviewer: It rather hurt Johnson's pride to be called a cheat, didn't it? Authority on Johnson: He was a proud gentlenan. There are three reasons for the delay before the new edition of Shakespeare was published: in the first place Johnson was a procrastinator, he put things off from day to day: then his topic was not one in which he was thoroughly interested: and lastly the money which was to pay him for his labors he had already spent. Interviewer: No wonder he didn't prepare himself thoroughly for the work which he had undertaken. Authority on Johnson: I must run song now. You've been asking me questions so fas I have to get some more answers. Good-bye. Interviewer: Thank you for the interview. When you know all the answers please plan to be on another of our programs.

Well as you all know, probably better than I dc, that I had in my home, just to keep it occupied while I was away and partly because I didn't have the heart to say no to a woman, quite a menagerie. It was composed of a blind old lady named Williams, mrs. Desmoulins and her daughter who were my friends years before in Staffordshire, Liss Carmicheal, whom we called Polly, and an old doctor whom I suspected of being a quack. hy reasons for suspecting him were that he often came home drunk, and I knew he didn't have money enough to buy drink, so he must have obtained it as payment of services rendered. I can't see anything practicable about that, mr. Johnson. Well, I can't say that it was practicable,wforfwhen they were not fighting among themselves they were fighting and mistreating my negro servant, Frank, and myself. Thank you, Mr. Johnson, and that I hope answers our English question. Tell, Portland, wasn't there something your father wanted at the corner Drug Store. Oh, I get it Mr. Allen. Tallyho.

Because of persecu- tion, Tyndale was forced to leave England to carry out his plan of translating the Bible into Eng- lish. Later he was executed .for hersey in l556, but, like John Brown of Harpers Ferry, nhis soul goes marching on,n for his great work succeeded, and his transla- tion of the Bible much as it is today opened the way for the first printed Bible, and once in print it became the most valuable and most prized single possession of the Anglo-Saxon race. 'In this year of our Lord 1957, a National Commemoration Com ittee, composed of outstand- ing American leaders and writers, has been formed to com emorate the 402nd anniversary of the Eng- lish Bible. It was on October 4, 1535, that there came from an un- known press the last pages of the first printed English Bible, pre- pared finally by Myles Coverdale and based much upon the original Tyndale translation. By Cover- dale's time there was some change in sentiment in England, and his second edition of the Bible was nset forth with the King's most gracious license.H The King James' Version of the Bible, first published in l6ll, is now recqgnized as the authorized ver- sion wherever the English lan- guage is spoken. Bible Societies, organized to translate and circulate the Bible, have caused it to travel +A 'Prvn nn111m+1n-Tao nnf-1 4-rs ann.-.Tr -iv. strange tongues. The first Bible printed in America was financed by a Bible Society, and circulated in Cam- bridge, Massachusetts, in 'l665, One of the pilgrim fathers, John Elliot, translated this first Am- erican Bible into the language of the Massachusetts Indians. It would be hard indeed to overstate the influence upon civ- ilization, and especially upon the Anglo-Saxon race, that the English Bible has had during those 402 years since Coverdale's translation. In the early days in England it was read in the churches and at home, and was of immeasurable influence upon the lives of the common people, es- pecially the Puritans. Talk about the best sellers, no book in the world has ever be- gun to have the number of readers that the Bible has. Well might it be the dream, the ideal, of any author to write a book of such value to the human race that mankind would make all sacrifices and suffer all kinds of tortures, just for the privilege of its aid and confort. With hundreds and thousands of families it was in the only book in the it children learned its fly-leaf was only written record olden times home. From to read, on placed the the family ever had of marriages, births, and deaths. One has only to read between those uncertain lines of faded ink to find all the human interest, all the dra- ma, of life itself. Florence E. Fernald l95? 'B1'5HHH!-965595 ! A MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY This interesting book about a man's love for his country was written by Edward Everett Hale. He was born on April 5, 1862 and died in June, 1909. Some of his works are'WMy Double and How He Undid Men, nLend A Handn, nPhilip Nolan's Friendsn, and many others including UA Man Without A Coun- try. This book was very interest- ing in showing good points that every one should know and live up to. We first met Philip Nolan at court. He was being tried for something that he had done that was wrong, and while being.tried he cursed the United States and wished that he might never see or hear her name again. His wish was granted him, He was put on a warship to stay always a certain number of miles away from the United States. All the passen- gers had to be very careful what they said so as not to mention the United States in front of him, Ho never heard or saw her name from that day in court. un- til near his death. When it was too late he realized his mistake. He wanted the words United States to be written in large letters where he could see tmgm,He also wanted the American flag put whore he could see it. He then wanted to know all about what had happened in the United States since he had left it. He wanted his body buried in the sea as that was his only country. There is nothing a person should love and honor more than lnscmmmy, Marilyn E. Mayberry 1959 OUR NEW BOOKS Florence E.

How- came through with C52-251 and again for a clash with It can truthfully be said that the play-off for the cham- pionship was the most exciting game of the season. Although Gorham was never ahead of our team, they succeeded in tying the score twice in the 4th period. Team work was the winning factor. Snowdon sank the last three baskets for Standish. Because of hor league record Standish was invited to take part in the Gorham Normal Tournament.
