I I I I 10, TEMPLETON TEMZPTER I I Editorial Departme , The Story of a Penny I was born in the form of copper ore some- where in the western part of the United States a few hundred years ago. Prospectors came one day and discovered this copper. A mine was set up and I was unearthed and thrown into a freight car to- gether with many other lumps of ore. I en- joyed this ride which took me to a huge cop- per smelter. Here I suiered intense heat but came out pure Ia lump of pure copperl. I remained here a few days then, enjoyed another ride to a Washington mint. Here I was made into a bright, shining, new penny. On one side of me they stamped a picture of a man while 'on the other side they stamped a few letters. Next I found myself in a bank, then in the possession of a man. The man gave me to a. little boy, who, taking me into the palm of his hand went to a candy store. But I managed to slip out from between his fingers onto the sidewalk. If I had known what was to happen, I would never have done this, for I rolled straight into a water grate. And here I am! J. Y. '34 Showers! Hurray! At last we've got our 1ong-fought- for showers. With the aid of convincing es- says, help from the class of 1930 and the townspeople, and the help of the school in selling magazines we have 'at last got our showers. In 1928 the graduation speakers told the public of our need and desire for showers. This helped to start things. Then the class of 1930 left the Athletic Association some money to be used for showers. Since then one of our selectmen has given us a heater and with the help of the people either by do- nations or in subscriptions for the magazines which were sold this year to raise more money we succeeded in raising the amount necessary to install the showers. About three weeks ago we were able to take showers and the members of the girls' and boys' basketball teams found them very re- freshing after practice and after the games. We all appreciate the effort and Work which secured our showers for us. I. L. S. '31 , I Hobbies I There are many kinds of hpbbies, some in- teresting to a few, others disi terestlng. Some people make sports their hob ies: golf, tennis, baseball, football, soccer, swimming, basket- ball, fishing, racing and flying. Others turn to collecting: stamps, coins, Iautographsgpic- tures, flowers, souvenirs, first editions and spoons are illustrations along' this line. Many turn to horticulture for th ir hobbies. The growing of flowers, vegetabl S, and freaks of nature are a pleasure to the . Other groups enjoy hobbies of a. more ma ual type such as: carpenters, cabinet makers, nd machinists. Hobbies act as a diversion. Efhey help to pro- vide amusement and workIfor people when they have leisure time. A hobby is an inter- esting thing to have andI has educational value. Those. who begin hobbies become more and more interested in them and seek to cul- tivate the habit. I . J C. S. 0. '34 The Family Allium Every home has its family album, at least one, if not more. Some are two or three gen- erations old and others aref up to date. When a friend calls and conversation begins to lag, how often we dig 'out the family al- bum! We do not look at the faces and com- pare the likeness of great uncle John to John Junior, but we compare he styles in dress of the past and present. I The album is a relic of the time of our grandfathers and grandmothers. The long dresses with puffed slee es and hoop skirts, the high stiff collars thai the men and boys wore, greatly amuse us. IThe love stories of that generation have a great hold on our lm- agination, but don't all llove stories interest us? Life was not as easy and luxurious as some people think. If you woljld look closely at the faces that are portrayed in the family album you would notice that the womenihad patient, sweet faces, showing theImark of worry, care, self-denial and hard w rk. They seemed to reveal that they had to get up at dawn, get meals for a family of tw lve or thirteen three times a day, keep a laige home clean with none of our labor-saving devices and sew all their clothing by hand.
