Is it his personality, his name, his money, his position? Was Abraham Lincoln great because he pos- sessed these characteristics and responsibilities? The answer is an unequivocal no. Lincoln's greatness was inherent. That is, it was part of himself. In other words, -his greatness, then, was character, that intangible, which brings into focus those traits to which we all subscribe. Respect for others, devotion to truth, courage, personal integrity, moral and spiritual enrichment are their names. As these very self-same traits bolstered Lincoln and made him great, so will they bolster us. If faithfully cultivated they will make for us stable character, and a code of ethics that will constantly renew our courage and determination, which we will need to take our place in this ever changing world. .- i Princqnalfr Merracge XVI-IY I TEACH You can be sure that it isn't the hours of correcting homework that holds my interest. Nor does the opportunity of facing an irate parent fwho honestly believes that most teachers are villainsj have afppeal. Do I enjoy making students stay after school for various infractions of school regulations? No! You are wrong again. Well, then you may think that a teacher receives a special amusement in giving an F to a friendly, co- operative student who does the best that he can but just isn't cut out for school work or just doesn't understand that particular subject. I know that a few of you are wrong again because there is no pleasure in seeing tears of disappointment in another's eyes. Money? I-Iow can you say that when several of my friends in industry with an equal training are now earning double my present salary. No, friends, there is no enjoyment from any of the above. The joys of teaching come when the student says, Now I see how to do these or Thank you for showing me how. To me there is special satisfaction in knowing that a student has 'put forth special effort in studying an assignment for which he has no particular interest but does not leave it until he has done his very best. Ut disturbs me to see students selling themselves for a nickel when they are worth fifty cents.j It also pleases me immensely when a former student writes or tells me of some special success that he has achieved. Not all of these boys and girls carry chips on their shoulders. Many of them will grow into useful citizens to make both you and me proud of them and may the good Lord take care of them in the years to come. 20' Jfld Dedzlutzbn We, the Senior Class of Strong High School, Respectfully dedicate this the 37th edition of the MUSSUL UNSQUIT to the AMERICAN LEGION AND AUXILIARY IOHNSON-COX POST 778 In appreciation of all they have done for us and for the town of Strong.

It was required for all Iuniors to learn a speech and the best speakers were to participate in Iunior Prize Speaking Contest. This contest was 'held on December 18th in the gym at which time the win- ners were: lst, Deanne Stevens, 2nd, Peter Norris, 3rd, Iudy Sprague.

MY FAMILY In number, there's quite a few of us. When we're all together there's such a fuss. Mom may sputter at this and that, But she'd fight for us all at the drop of a hat. Dad is quite the outdoor type, He's not relaxed without his pipe. Gene, Betsy, and Karen Lee, Are always a very welcome three. When Sis is home she's quite the lady, With her Hy-boy husband and brand new baby. As 'brother lack and I get along fine. When you see one the other's not far behind. On the whole, my family's swell, And we all get along rather well. Michael Reynolds '61 Graaf School began September 4th, with a total enroll- ment of 1'59'in the first six grades.

The weight and height were also recorded. A follow-up check in weight and height will be given in Iune. National Education Week was observed Novem- ber 14th, with Open House at the school. There were special exhibits of the childrcn's work in each room and the halls. Many interested parents and friends attended which was most gratifying. Reading is greatly stressed through all the grades. Pupils must be good readers in order to do well in school. Every child needs to read more than there is time for during school hours. Extra read- ing at home is very important. Due to the length of time required in preparing for an operetta, the school officials and teachers feel it is advisable to 'present one every other year. The change in the ranking system made last year has proved the new one much more valuable than the old. It has brought about greater effort by the child and closer cooperation with the parents. It has seemed difficult for parents and children alike to get accustomed to the new system, espe- cially to realize that a C which is 752 to 851, is considered average work. Because of raising the values of the letters from what they were, many more C's had to be given. This caused grave concern on the part of both par- ents and children, thereby creating a greater inter- est in the children's work. The result was eager interest and stimulation on the part of the parents which in turn brought greater effort by the child. There have been some outstanding cases where the -parents' urging and concern has been the primary cause of much greater effort by the child so that his ranks have increased to a great extent in one ranking period. Is it not a better system of ranking if it will spur the child on to greater effort? Do we want the children to be handed their ranks or work to get all they can in learning from their school experi- ence? It is not just the ranks on the cards that will count in the future years for each child but the knowledge he has gained from his school work.

This year we won eight league games and lost two, hnishing in second place in the North Frank- lin County League. We also played several non-league games with Kents Hill, Monmouth Academy, Leavitt Institute and Clinton.Of these we won three and lost two but we had a good time playing them. All the boys and the coach wish to thank the fans for attending the games. We hope to see you all at next year's games. IUNIOR VARSITY We started our practice under the leadership of Coach Scott Kelly with ten boys. We played quite a few games and had very good luck with them. We are hoping to improve still more so that next year we all may play Varsity Basketball.

This year the group was made up of nearly all beginners with very little experience. The boys have practiced hard and shown steady improve- ment. To date they have not won any games but are gaining the experience and knowledge of basic fundamentals to be used in future years. The girls with a few veterans returning from last year's squad have met with better success. They have won their first three games with decisive mar- gins.

Our club has been a big success this year and we hope that we will again be able to enjoy the many books it offers next year.

Literary A TRAIT OF AN AMERICAN This above all to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to anyone. This passage from the great play Hamlet, writ- ten by Shakespeare, illustrates a most important trait of an American-honesty. From childhood this trait is tested. Often in ad- mitting the truth a child is punished. If this con- tinues he soon learns that a little white lie can avoid a punishment. Very early in life it would seem honesty is discouraged. Iuveniles commit many small crimes which at the time seem to pay off. The teen-age gangs often operate over a period of time successfully, so they see no need for honesty until it is too late and they find themselves in court. Today many people are out to make easy money. They feel the world owes them a living and they will get it any way they can. They ride high and fall hard. Too late they learn of their mistake and realize Honesty is the best policy . Seldom is an article written in a newspaper about anyone possessing this quality of honesty. It is not the honesty of people that is publicized in news- papers, magazines, on the television and radio. Instead we read and hear of the many dishonest deeds committed daily. Through the years since the beginning of our country we have al-ways chosen as leaders men who have possessed this trait or America would not have survived. Somewhere there have been men who dared to tell the truth regardless of the conse- quences. There have been men who refused bribes and stood for what they believed was right. But we never know about or publicize those who have resisted the temptation. Only those who have suc- cumbed to it receive publicity, just what many are seeking. Washington who endured hardships during the Revolutionary War and later as president faced many important decisions, but dealt with them honestly and fairly. Lincoln, who freed the slaves because he felt they should have an equal opportu- nity with others, also, to a high degree, possessed this sense of right and wrong. At the present time with the existing pressure and demands of modern living, honesty is more essential than ever before. The men at the head of our government, in Augusta and in Washington need to possess this trait if America is to exist as a free nation. Allyn Hcald '58 THE PREPARED BABYSIT'I'ER RING-RING Hello Why, hello, is this Mary? Yes, this is she. This is Ellen and I wonder if you could come and baby-sit for me tonight? Why-ah-I-sure I guess I can. Thank you very much. We'll expect you over around 7:30. Bye now. Good-bye. Oh, Mother! What is it, dear? I have to go baby-sit for Mrs. Iones and that means I can't go to the movies with the girls. Well, dear, if you were going to the movies why did you say you would baby-sit? Because, I don't know enough to say no, and I have already seen the movie once. I was just going for something to do. I guess you will have something to do now. You're so right. Honest, Mother', that Ioncs boy is a little monsterf' Now, now, dear, calm down, it isn't that bad. You don't think so, huh? I'll have you know that the last time I baby-sat he wanted to play cow- boys and Indians and he got me so tied up, I thought for sure he would have my scalp to hang in his room before the night was overf' Well, dear, you survived that. That isn't all. He asked me if I wanted some pudding and I said I would enjoy it very much, so what did he do but come in and pour a whole dish-full over my head. He is a little devil, isn't he? Devil isn't the word for it. If I had a brat like that I'd soon knock some sense into his head. Well, dear, it is 7:30. You had better go now. Yes, Mother, I'm on my way.'l Why, Mary, what on earth do you have your brother's football outfit on for? Mother, when you meet your enemy face to face it's a good idea to be prepared, so tonight when the arrows start flying at me I'll have a little padding to protect mc, goodbye. Ha ha, goodbye, dear. Ioan Lambert '59 A little boy named Tommie Wanted to tease his Mommie, He swallowed some worms, Got plenty of germs- And it just about killed Tommie's Mommie. Ardis Howes '61 THE STRUGGLE 'LOh, look! I-Iere's a number I-ive bus now. Get out your ticket. Are you sure that bus is the one going to Valois? I'm quite sure it is. There now, here we are on our way home. It sure feels good to sit down, doesn't it? Yes, it sure does. I'm so tired, I just can't wait to get home, but I'm sure glad to get the shopping all done. Oh, dear! Where are we going? Look, what are we turning here for? I'm sure the number was five on the front of this bus. Let's tell the conductor that we're on the wrong bus. All right, go tell him. Sir, isn't this a number Eve bus going to Valois? Madame, I'm sorry. This bus is number fifteen going to Dorchester Station. Land! What will we do? Here we are with about ten bundles going in just the opposite direc- tion from where we are going. Madame, I'll let you off up here a little ways and then you can take a five bus there. Oh, all right, thank you. Mary, collect your bundles, we've gotten onto a Fifteen bus instead of a five. The conductor is go- ing to let us off up here, where we can take a five bus. Here you are, ladies. Thank you, Sir. l'm positive this is a live bus coming. I'm going to check and be sure. It is. Let's get on and see where this takes us. Phewl My feet are killing me. Don't go to the back of the bus now because I just can't walk that far. There, we're almost home, lane. Isn't that wonderful? Yes, but which taxi can we call to take us to the house? Let's wait and see. There, lct's go over across the street to I-Ielen's Taxi. May,we have a taxi, please? Yes, just a moment. Isn't it wonderful to be home, lane? Yes, won't our bed feel good? I'm going now. u sa u u u Helen LaHin '59 OUR FUNNY CLOUDS The clouds are large snowballs Floating up on high Yet at times they seem like 'pillows That were tossed into the sky. They are really funny items Sometimes so nice and white At other times they are so dark The day seems just like night. As a child I liked to watch them It really seemed like fun To watch their different shapes As they moved slowly past the sun. Some days they look like birds Flying through the air And other days when you look There isn't even one there. Some of them are like animals While others are like Bowers Now don't you agree with me About these funny clouds of ours? Celia Huff '58 OUR CONSTITUTION My class has been studying American History. Among the most important and interesting events was the signing of the Constitution of the United States. By 1790, the Constitution was signed by all of the thirteen colonies. The .purposes of the government were stated in one sentence. This sentence is the Preamble to the Constitution. The first purpose of the Constitution was to form a more perfect Union . This was necessary because the colonies were not working together. Establishing justice was an important factor. There were few good courts of law at the time. Domestic tranquillity was important to them because they wished to have peace within their nation. They had learned during the Revolutionary War that the government needed to provide an army and navy for the common defense of the colonists. The general welfare , health and prosperity of the people was uppermost in the minds of the dele- gates to the Constitutional Convention. Last, but not least, they wanted liberty , this being one of the greatest reasons for leaving their mother country. Many important events led up to this great docu- ment. There was the Sugar Act in 1764. About a year later, Parliament passed the Stamp Act. The colonists rebelled because this was taxation without representation. The Stamp Act was repealed. Soon after, the Townsend Acts were passed by Par- liament. These put a tax on many goods coming in from England. The colonists forced England to remove the taxes from all products except tea. This was the cause of the Boston Tea Party. After the Tea Party, came the Revolutionary War and the signing of the Declaration of I-ndependence. Because of the wisdom of those delegates who attended the Constitutional Convention in May, 1787, today we enjoy the many liberties of living in a free country. Nanette Starbird '62 OUR FLAG SALUTE There long existed a dispute over the author- ship of the pledge of allegiance to the United States Hag. The fact is that it was written in the ofiice of the publishers of The Youth's Compan- ion on Sept. 8, 1892. lt was part of the ofhcial program to celebrate Columbus Day in the public schools. At the time this pledge was written and published The Youth's Companion had in its employ two men, Francis Bellamy and Iames Up- ham. At the time of publication, it was felt advis- able to leave the pledge anonymous, and it re- mained so until after the death of the two men. Later on, both families claimed the authorship. An investigating committee of the United States Flag Association concluded that undoubtedly Bell- amy was the author. As first published it read: I pledge allegiance to my flag, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. The pledge of allegiance has deep meaning, to all Americans. Saying the pledge is the tradition- al and accepted way for a person to state his loyalty and love for the United States and its flag. The pledge is given in public schools and gatherings. When we repeat, I pledge allegiance to the flag , that means that we pledge our loyalty to the Hag. And to the republic for which it stands , meaning the United States in which we live. On Iune 14, 1954, President Eisenhower signed a bill which added the phrase under God . One nation, under God, indivisible ,-One nation that will remain one nation only under God's guidance. With liberty and justice for all , -that every- one here, regardless of wealth or social position is entitled to the liberty and justice, for which we are humbly grateful. Sharon Clinch '62 SILHOUETTES Underneath the pines on a rocky hill one night, Reaching shadows stretched along the ground, Sleepy moonbeams caused a magic, twinkling light. 'Midst the sky a star was earthward bound. Standing on the hill in the stillness of the air, One could see the city lights flash far below Their blinking continued while I stood there 'Til the oncoming sunrise stopped their glow. Pat Newell '58 LIFE'S STRUGGLE 'Neath the tree on high one day, I saw a man, his hair was gray, He knelt there, his eyes had cried, And when he rose, Amen he sighed. He walked so slowly, down the crest, His heart and face did show rest, Praying for someone, he had tried, But in vain for she had died. He visioned her hair, like golden strands, Done up in rings, like golden bands, Her face and features were sedate, And all of her was delicate. She was dead and there she laid, The coffin silk, her hair in braids, Her dress of black, her face was white, She had fought, but lost the fight. Lynn White '58 PIES AND GUYS Davy Crockett and Pecos Bill A long time ago, and on a hill, Met Paul Bunyan and Daniel Boone And Iohn Henry came along quite soon. All was still for a little while, But not for long, said Dan with a smile, We'd ought to get together and make some pies Bigger than can be seen with Dan's two eyes. Paul got his cook, a jolly young man, He and Davy took out the large iron pan They collected all the berries in two states, by gee This was surely a good sight to see. It took four teams of horses to pull the rolling pin, But they rolled out the crust and poured berries in. Davy grabbed the sun, an experienced man, And turned its heat under the large cooking pan. In a short time the pies were done, Blueberry pies cooked with the sun Bigger than Lake Erie, they said it was And not to believe them, I have no cause.

She is the smallest in the class. Next to her, we all look tall. Pat is just the opposite, From Lorelei as can be. In height she really tops it, For the tallest girl is she. A boy in our class is Sherry, With his little Nash of green. When Ioy's with him, he's cheery, And around Farmington he's seen. Trudy is a girl Who lives in my home-town. She's always in a whirl. She'll never settle down. Alfred is our artist. He has hair of curls. In drawing he's the smartest, He can draw some pretty girls. Our President is Wally. To Brenda he's quite a guy. He's also tall, by golly, And just a little shy. Iudy is our Iuliet. Of boyfriends she has lots. Of all the dates that she will get, There'll be some of all sorts. An athlete, we love to see, And Wendall does pretty well. In a year or so-where will he be? Who knows? We can't tell! Charlie Snell can never agree, With anyone else it seems. The fighter of the class is he. If something's wrong, HE STEAMSl Iimmy is another one That helps make up the class. At night he heads for Farmington, To see a certain lass. Sheridan is quite often stallin' He's often late, until, We wonder if he's callin' At Deanne's on Norton Hill. THE CLASS OF '58 Earl is in our class. He has a green Ford. He's married to a pretty lass. And down the road they roared. Barbara is a friendly girl. If you knew her you'd agree. Herbert keeps her in a twirl, As you can probably see. The Brain of our class is Lynn He's really quite a lad. He is our Valedictorian. Of that we're pretty glad. Iune is our pretty miss. To ou she ma seem uiet. Y Y Q Q 1 Maybe you won't believe this, But in school, she's a riot. The next one now is Allyn. As Bimbo he is known. Up to Earl's he goes callin' I-Ie's never found at home. Dick is new to us this year He comes from Rangeley High. From others we hear That he certainly isn't shy. Delbert is the class pest. He's always on the go. He never lets us rest, Until things are just so. Tommy is another one, Who is a perfect tease. He's always teasing someone, Until they say Please . Dale is also slow, In getting to school on time. But when it's time to go, He's always first in line. Now I am the last one, To make our class all here. This makes a class of twenty-one, To graduate this year. And so the class of '58 Bids the school Farewell . Celia Huff 58 WHAT THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS MEANS TO ME The pursuit of happiness means far more than can be expressed in words. Happiness for himself and for others can be all some people live and work for. A good deal of enjoyment can be had by camping beside a stream or lake in the woods. There is joy in having heard the distant hoot of an owl, the faint murmur of the wind in the pines and the stillness of the forest night with the stars twinkling high above. Happiness can be found almost anywhere. To some people it can be caring for animals, or plow- ing furrows across a Field or haying in the warm Iuly sun. Education can lead the way to happiness. It can give you a choice of jobs so you can work at some- thing you like. Education also can give you the money you need for the feeling of financial secur- ity. Religion also holds its part in happiness. Some people find that placing their faith in something greater than man gives them a feeling of secur- ity. The pursuit of happiness means a lot to me be- cause it gives a person something to work for. Happiness may come only in minutes at a time but those minutes last forever in memories and are relived in dreams. Thomas Bates '58 INDIAN SPORTS AND GAMES Most American games came from foreign coun- tries but some of the more popular ones came from the American Indians. One Indian game which is very popular today is Lacrosse which is played on a field three to four hundred feet in length with goals at each end. This game consists of twelve players on a side each with a stick which is curved at one end called the Crosse. The ball used is of soft rubber, and a little smaller than a baseball. Though new rules have been added to Lacrosse, it is still a very rough game. Canoeing was not only a sport for the Indians but was also his best way of transportation. The Indian canoe was made of birch bark and cedar bows. The two were fastened together by fibers from tree roots. It was sealed from water by resins and balsam from certain types of trees. Because of the ski'll with which the Indians built their canoes, white -men were able to explore lakes, rivers, and streams where they could hardly go by any other means. Snowshoeing was probably more a necessity than a sport to the Indians. QHowever, now it is prob- ably as much sport as necessity.j They were made mostly from boughs and animal hides and fastened tight enough as to hold a man's Weight. Snowshoes make traveling through snow much easier and faster. The bow and arrow is the item which is probably most closely associated with the Indian. His bow was used nearly as much in games and contests as in battle and hunting. Indian tribes quite fre- quently held shooting contests. Some Indians even acquired their names by their ability with the bow and arrow. Wendall Voter '58 HENRY Now, Henry, we are going to go and visit your Aunt Mary and Uncle Bob, and Daddy and I want you to behave. Do you think you can? Of course I can. Anybody would think I was five years old instead of six, the way you treat me. All right now, son, you see that you are dressed in your best suit, for we are going to have dinner with your uncle and aunt. Now you are to use your best manners and don't grab for food that is clear across the table from you. Okay, Dad, I'll use my best manners. RING-RING Bob, dear, will you get the door, please. I think it is Ioe and Helen with Henry. Oh no! Not Henry. Why, he is the worst thing I can think of! Now Bob, you musn't talk about our dear little nephew like that. He is a sweet, softspoken little boy. I'm glad you think so, for I would rather let in a stampede of wild horses before I would him! RING-RING Bob, do get the door and stop talking. Okay, okay. 'fWhy, Ioe and Helen. How are you? I'm glad you could come, and darling Henry, how are you? If I were sick I wouldn't be here. Why, hello, everyone. You all look hungry. Dinner will be ready in a minute. It better be, for I'm starved. Henry, what did Dad and I tell you about your manners? Oops, I forgot. You know, Mom, I have an awful memory. Well, folks, sit down and make yourselves at home. I don't feel like sitting, Uncle Bob. I think I'll go into the kitchen and help Aunt Helen. I-Ii! Do you need my help, Auntie VVhy. no. dear. I think I can manage. I don't think you can so l'll help just the same. Oh! Your table isn't set yet. I'll do that for you. Noi No! Be careful, you might ---- F.. CRASH! Gee! It looks like I dropped a few plates. Oh well, l'll help you cook. I'm better at that. Why don't you go out and play with Dinah? She's a very nice dog. Don't want to, 'fraid I might catch her fleas. Don't! Oh dear, you put too much salt in the po- tatoes. Hey! That ain't how Mama cooks her car- rots. Now, Henry, I know you are a great helper but-why don't you go and End something else to do? There is a very nice girl who lives across the street. She's just about your age. Don't like girls. They is all a bunch of sissiesf' When you get older you won't say that. When I get older I'll be running away from them. Why? 'Cause they will be older and also husban' hunting, and it would be just my luck to get one that cooks just like you. All right, now go and tell the folks that dinner is ready. Hey, folks! Dinner is ready. Come and get it. What have you been doing all this time, Henry? Why you know me, Dad. I just hate to see anyone work hard, so I gave Auntie a helping hand. Oh Mary, I hope Henry didn't give you any trouble. Oh, no, Helen, he is just a typical six-year-old boy. Shirley Hubbard '59 EDUCATION Education is important to everyone. A teenager may not realize this. If he is in grammar school or the first year of high, he will usually find that the studies grow harder each year. He may become discouraged and leave school. After a few years he will usually realize his mistake and want to return, but he is too ashamed. It would be necessary to begin where he left off, and be with pupils much younger. He will End if he quits it is much harder to get a job. So if you are able, stay in school. Reach for some- thing higher. Get your diploma! Who wants to be jobless? Sylvia Huff '62 UNAPPROVED MARRIAGE Many a story has been told Of sweet Betsy of Pike. But little is ever mentioned Why she married her lover Ike. Ike was a dashing young playboy, Reared in Pike County too, But until he met sweet Betsy His ideas of marriage were few. Betsy's parents disapproved of Ike. They would not tell her why So their quite thrilling courtship Was continued on the sly. One day a neighborhood lady Who at snooping was quite bold, Saw them in the town saloon And Betsy's parents quickly told. Q When her parents found this out They were really very, mad. Betsy could no more see her Ike Which made her so very sad. Her parents watched her day and night. Of seeing Ike there was no hope So one day she mailed to him a note. To be together they must elope. To buy a wagon and join the train Was the idea that seemed the best. So that is why we hear of them In the songs of moving west. Barbara Neil '58 MY BROTHER There is a duty He does not shirk It is the duty Of doing work. He does it all, I don't do none. He does the workg I have the fun. He gets the wood And shovels the driveway All he does is work All I do is play. He does the high work Cause I'm scared of heights While he is doing that I'm seeing the sights. While he's doing work I .play basketball. But why should I care? He's only my brother, that's all. George Gilmore '61 THE LEGEND OF THE PUMPKIN FRESHET This event supposedly took place in the great flood during the fall of 1869, when the Sandy River reached its highest known level. Some years before this a man had made out his will. He had four sons among which to divide his property. He didn't like one of his sons. But it was a law that he had to will each son at least a dollar. So that is just what he willed him, and all the rest was divided among the other three sons. The old man died and was buried in Phillips in back of the Methodist Church which was quite near the river. Nothing too much was thought of this until in 1869 and the terrible Hood. It is said that it rained for a week without stopping, and the cemetery was washed out. The son who had received just the dollar had prospered and lived in the river valley. When the water went down, on his front doorstep was a casket believed to be that of his father. All the son had to say to this was, Well, I guess the old man came back after his dollar. Clarice Mitchell '60 IUNIOR'S FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL Iunior, dear, it is 7:00 A. M. and time to get up for your first day of school. Oh, gee, Mom, what's the sense of getting up. I'll just have to get back in bed in twelve hours?', Now, dear, you'll like school and the teachers are very nice. I'll bet they look like my old horse! Iuniorl Now that's enough. You get dressed and come down and eat. Okay, Mom, here I comef' Iunior, you can't go to school in that old shirt and those dirty pants. Why not? It isn't nice or proper. Okay, I'll change but I sure hate to. Well, Iunior, you ate a good breakfast and you are presentable, so now you may go to school. Gee, thanks, Mom, you're a pal. Good morning, students, I am your teacher. My name is Miss Stone. I would like to get ac- quainted with you. Now, let me see, you look like a nice boy. What is your name? Iunior. Isn't that a nice name. What is your last name? Stevens. How old are you, dear? Six. How old are you? You shouldn't ask me questions like that. Why not? You asked me. You should respect your elders. What are they?', is as sm cc at Someone that is older than you are. Well, how did I know you were older than I am. You didnit answer my question. And I don't intend to! Well I'm sorry if I got you mad. Here is a little present for youf' Oh, thank you--Oh, ouch, what is it? A lizard. His name is Henry and he'll make a nice pet. He will even want to sleep with you so he can keep warm. Well, he can keep sides my bedll' Be sure to make him feel at home, won't you? Sure I will, well, it's time for recess boys and girls. Boy! What a beginning for the first day of school! warm somewhere else be- Betty Stevens '59 MYSELF When I was a little girl The things I didn't do To me seem very funny So I'll tell you just a few. Of course I have two brothers Who gave me the ideas: And being only four I had very little fear. We were playing a game of pirate And I heard one of them say: Let's see you cut our eyes outl' I remember it to this day. I could just reach mother's sideboard Where the butcher knife was lying, I grabbed it and started after them, They ran for mother crying. Another time my father taught me how to milk When I was very small, My mother had me all dressed up I looked just like a doll. He took me to the barn with him, Now the cow had always stood still I don't know what I did to her But something against her will. She turned her head to look at me, She swished her tail, and took a step The milk pail went up over my head, And I was soaking wet. My dad took it as a joke, But mother, she looked sad, I never meant to do things wrong, But girls sometimes have to be bad. Elinor Bunnell '61 A SCENE OF WONDER Underneath the pine tree, On a rocky hill one day I saw a scene of wonder, A scene I thought was gay. A deer and fox were playing, Running through some hay, And a prettier sight I've never seen Is what I want to say. The mountains in the background And the sunset just above, The sky, it fits the picture Like a hand that fits the glove. The lark, the sparrow And even the cooing dove, Miracles flowing from the pen Bring out a poet's love. Sheridan Richards '58 EYES Every day we see many eyes of assorted colors and shapes. Eyes are very expressive. Some twin- kle with mischief and others are dark with hate. Let us first observe a baby. His eyes are full of trust for everyone. Next we see a grade school child whose eyes are sparkling with delight. He has just heard that there will be ice cream served at recess. In the same room is another boy whose eyes have a mis- chievous look in them. He has just tied little Sal'ly's pigtails together. Later on we notice an older student. We see that his eyes have a different look in them. They seem very deep and solemn. He is trying to study but is having a hard time because of noises in the study hall. In this same room is a girl who is using her eyes for a purpose other than reading. She is mak- ing eyes at a certain boy across the room. Her eyes are certainly attracting him. As we notice the grown people around the town we see all kinds of eyes-shifty eyes which you never can tell where they are looking, happy smil- ing eyes, hard cold eyes, and mischievous eyes. As we pass the barber shop we notice a few elderly men with faraway looks in their eyes. They are telling stories of the years gone by. In my opinion, you are able to tell a lot about a person by the looks of his eyes. Barbara Neil '58 DAVY Although he's small and only I-ive, How he keeps our house alive! He's always scampering here and there, And teasing his sister by pulling her hair. When it's time for 'him to go to bed, He goes and runs and hides instead, And after we find him and he's tucked in sound It seems so nice and peaceful around. Patricia Probert '61 MEN OF FAME There are many men who have won fame. Many who we know not their names. Many were teachers and men of science There were the doctors and also the clients. If not for the teacher where would we be? And men of science with their electricity The doctors working hard for new cures Clients that take them, but-are never sure. There is another man that's won great fame He lived in England, Shakespeare is the name. He wrote great plays and they are well known, In the outdoor theatres they were shown. He was born at Stratford-on-Avon in 1564 His career started at the playhouse door. By 1592 a little reputation was gained, Shakespeare was off to his world of fame. The Tempest was probably the last of his plays But we remember them all even today. On April 23, 1616, 'he passed away But in our 'hearts he will always stay. Shirley Hubbard '59 WHY I READ LONGFELLOW'S WORK As a native of Maine I think my favorite author is Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, who was also a native of Maine. I have heard quite a lot about Longfellow since he was from Maine and have been inspired to read his work. After I started to read his work I kept on reading it. One reason why I like Longfellow is because Ihc wrote for both children and adults. As a child in grade school I had to learn poems by various au- thors but LongfeIlow's poems are the ones I under- stood the most. Now I am still finding some of LongfelIow's work that I have not read and they interest me just the same as all the others did. Perhaps one reason I understand his work better is because 'he wrote about this part of the country quite frequently and we know a little about what he was referring in his work.
