Any tourist passing through the little town of West Paris might be thrilled by our cozy little community until he came to the cement bridge passing over the Little Androscoggin River. Now please don't misunderstand megthe cement bridge has been standing for as long as I can remember and it can stand there for as long as it wants. The dirty river and all its filth and refuse dumped in by generations of West Parisians has also been standing there for as long as I can remember, but believe me, I am not content to see that stand there forever. There is nothing that spoils the looks of a town any more than a river used as a garbage disposal unit. It is not surpris- ing to walk over the bridge any summer day and notice the not ex- actly pleasing aroma of decaying vegetable and animal matter. The river receives the sawdust of the mills,the sewerage and rub- bish of the houses, but the attention of nobody. It's human na- ture for people to be careless and forgetful, but neglect is just plain laziness. When confronted by this problem many people would say, Ult doesnft concern me.H I wonder what their reaction would be if they realized the number of rats which inhabit the river banks and the diseases they can and will cause unless something is done. Others may be of the opinion that anything that has beaugood enough for previous generations is good enough for them. They think that just because dear old grandpa lived through it they ought to be able to. There are still people around town who are living in the dark ages. You can't tell them anything and-you can't sell them anything. It would only take a little whole- hearted cooperation on the part of all of us to improve the looks of our town one hundred per cent. I know we, as citizens of West Paris, would like to see our little town grow and prosper, but I don't believe that that day is in the immediate future unless we do something about the chief eyesore in our otherwise beautiful town. Robert Young '50 Q JUVENSLE DELINCQUENCY Every year when Juvenile Court opens groups ' of .Americafs children all over the country stand before the court awaiting the verdict the Judges will give them, and each year Americas correc- tion houses are a little more full. There is no doubt about it - American Juvenile delinquency iss increasing. But there is not much that can be done about it until the cause of this increasing delineuency is discovered. - One of the old stand-by explanatiens is to blame the neigh- borhood from which the child comes. There is truth in this, as far as it goes. Surely, a child brousht up in slums has a far better chance of Hgoing badn than one who lives in a better loca- tion, but what about the many children brought up in slums who go nstraightu. In such cases, the old adage about Hlooationn and Hatmospheren does no hold true. Today, new views on the causes of delinnuency are coming to light. One of these is the proper training of children in their homes. All that schools can teach is not much help in curing this delinquency problem unless the children can be taught properly in their own homes. The child who has been lucky enough to absorb proper habits in his home will find it easier to resist tempta- tions when outside of it. Parents should remember that the greatestasset in euring and preventing delinquency is to reach children early. By teachi.ng obedience early to their children they can help them to form a habit that will follow them through life. Obedience is one of the first lessons a child should be taught--obedience to God,tns par- ents, and the laws of his country. Children should also be taught to respect the rights of others. By their own actions in the home, parents can teach this to their children. Ch ldren often develop into delinouents, too, because of family ouarrels. How can a child be expected to know that it is wrong to fight if his parents do it continually? I Most of all, a child needs a friend and a guide. These, his parents, can and must be. It is not enough that a boy or girl be dressed warmly, or fed the proper food, or be sent to the Hrightn school. He must feel that his parents are friends to whom he can turn at any time. When a child's house becomes a haven to which he can joyfully return when outsiders grow wearisome--when the house becomes a hgmg--then there wlD.be a big drop in delinquency cases. Sylvia Andrews '49 PUNT NCD RETU RN Never has a nation recovered itself, once the leaders have lured the people far into the grip of socialistic power. You may call the roll as far back as history reaches. Countries go on down to catastrophe as Germany and Italy have gone, as Rome went, and Russia will go. Americans for a century and a half supported their govern- ment, kept it well out of their affairs,and so became the earth's richest people. Now, more and more we ask the government to sup- port us, Government offers more Uhelpn for agriculture, housing, edu- cation, health, and other things. Everybody is being encouraged to ask for something. Every government aid means more taxes and more regulations. Each new experiment fastens onto the people 'a new load, and the load remains. , When a flyer risks stormy weather over the oceans, he ap- proaches what airmen call Wpoint no return.J Beyond that he can- not return to safety. He must take his chance on getting through. How near is U. S. A. to Point No Return? Frances Cole '50 DOES HISTORY REPEAT ITSELF? In the course of the past few years I have heard a number of times that this nation is fallingg that in another score orrnore years we will no longer be the chief country of the world, .that we will lose our prestige among the other powers and we will cease to be the npromised landn so many foreigners seek. This may be true, but I have to see proof. Let us analyze the situation as it stands. In order to do this we must get at the base of things, so we will go back to the time of Ceasar. When Rome was in her prime, she was a vast Empire, covering nearly one-sixth of the known world and boasting control of prac- tically all of the trade in Europe. She fought courageously, de- fending her boundaries and taking land for the good of her people Then the inevitable happened. Home became an arrogant, cruel and aggressive nation. She fought foolishly, losing men without bat- ting an eye, until finally the populace of Home was nothing but a group of weak-kneed politicians and women. Morals became as noth- ing. That stable unit in any nation, known as the family, began to fall apart. In short, Rome fell. Next consider Spain. To relate the collapse of this nation would be to retell the previous paragraph. Spain lost good men through wars, families broke up, moral standards dropped, she be- came over-aggressive, and was beaten. At one time England was a great power, queen of the seas she was. Hardly a nation dared venture against her. Yet she was beaten twice by a small republic, barely a country. Now we come to our problem. Are we on a slow decline? As far as moral standards go, it is true they have dropped, but not below a reasonable depth. The important thing is this, Have we become a cold, cruel, ag,ressive nation? Have we fought foolishly and lost thousands of strong, young men? If feeding half the world is cruel, then we are heartless. If protecting smaller na- tions from oppressive imperialists is fighting foolishly, then we must be close to idiocy. Therefore, I believe we are still the good old U. S. A. and will remain so for years to come. Francis Slattery '50 W LAM ESSAY CCDNTE5 T Station ULAM in Lewiston, Maine sponsored an essay contst the first of October. The subject was Uwhy Every American Citi- zen Should Vote in the Coming Election,H and was open to the public. As a class assigment everyone in English III and IV wrote an essay. Mr. Reid then submitted a group of them to the contest. The judges decisions' placed two U. P. H. S. students as winners. Lilja Mustonen, a SSHIOP, won first and Francis Slat- tery, a Junior, second prize, The winners' were invited to the broadcasting station to listen to HJunior Town Meeting of the A1r.H They were interviewed over the air and awarded 'their prizes: the first being Carl Sandburg's famous snovel, UAbraham Lincoln--The -Prairie Years.u Second prize was a large American flag. The prize winning essay follows: nNineteen.hundred forty-eight, being election year, everyone should be interested in politics. World conditions being in such a turmoil, people should carefully choose the man who plays such an important part in foreign affairs. Yet, do you find this in- terest among the majority? A person today will do anything to save the effort of going to the polls. ' Nvhen our, forefathers formed a democratic government they wanted it to be a servant of the peopleg carrying out the peopldi desires. Today the American citizen is the servant of the gov- ernment. Americans are continually meeting the demands of the government. UAnd everyone just sits back and lets this go on. nLet's get interested in what's going on right before our eyes. Ulf everyone would vote in the coming elections with an un- bias mind some of the evils of the political world might be cor- rected. nFor this reason, I believe every citizen should vote in the coming elect1on.M , 7 L UTER RY , ..

Upon opening the door, I was very much surprised to see no one there. I turned and started to retrace my steps when a square green piece of paper, which was attached to the screen, naught my eye. Taking the paper into the house, I examined the contents and what I saw first stertled me and then caused me to burst into laugh- ter. It was just like the fairy stories: HA mysterious treasure mapa popping into my lap. Only it vesn't exactly a treasure map, as it said! HIf you desire to visit a queer little town, one that you could tell about later and not have one person believe you, prepare yourself for sub-zero weather and tefe tomorrow morning's train to Yingston. There you will find a sleigh awaiting your arrival to take you to the unhnovn land of Kanbanharoee. You may have one companion with you: however, the transportation fee is one dollar a person. Murders are two dollars extra so I essure you, that for only one dollar, you will be suite safe.H I arrived at Iingston on the morning train and there was my sleigh, just as the mysterious note had said. A little old man was driving it but when I tried to rake conversation and find out where I was going, he only laughed, a gruesome laugh, and said, nlour fee, madam.' I paid him one dollar and settled back in my seat expecting the worst. Ne had driven only a short distance when I heard a long, low whistle and before I Knew what had hapoened, the ground had dropped from beneath us and we were in an underground cavern. Then I had regained my senses enough to speak, I turned to my driver and soon found out that I was completely aloneg Forse, This was a short one and at the end I saw a sight sleigh, and driver had all disappeared. Well--I had asked for it but whyu was beyond me. The cavern was very large with five great halls or tunnels. which one I was to tate was the next thing. After exploring for about an hour, I found that three of these halls vent in wide circles and ended back where I started. The fourth one lead to a stairway, at the top of which I saw day- light. Of course, I could have ended my journey there, but the fifth hall held a great enchantment that I must discover that, if I ever got out of here alive, truly no one would believe. There were the nueerest looking horses thft human eyes ever beheld. No --the horses themselves weren't oueer, but the strange thing about them was the fact that they were all dancing around on their hind legs to the music of the HKankankarosa Eand.N This uband,n too was made up of horses. The NKanIankarosa Night Clubn was truly a beautiful place: even the horses were dressed in beautiful clothesznd wearing mil- lions of dollars' worth of expensive jewelry. This sight was really too much for a Nhumann to watch so, after about half an hour, I took my leave. Taking the fourth hall, I climbed the stairway and soon was on my way back to Kingston. Yes-QI had to Walk as my horse and sleigh was no where in sight. Now that I am home again, I am writing my story for you to read. Of course, you von't believe it and at times I wonder if I am still sane. You see, I never found out who sent me that strange note and who has my one dollar bill.

In Madrid, people stop and stare in amaze- ment as the rising sun is concealed hy a dark cloud. Parisians gape in horror at the fiery streak on the horizon. But in the unfortunate city there is no one to question the oddity of nature for no longer is there any city-eno, not even rubble, only ash, millions of tons of ash, which once were sixty-story buildings and quadruple-deck highways. Two million people die instantly, and in nearby cities, thousands will continue to drop for over a period of ten years, their body tissues and lungs seared beyond human aid.. What was the cause for such an outrageous atrocity? Two hours earlier, Oceanapolis, on the Pacific coast, had been completely annihilated by deadly bacteria bombs. New York and Los Angeles were next on the list, but immediate retaliation pri- vented that. ' This is the war of the future. Within twenty-four hours the Mediterranean State has been captured and occupied, though there isn't much to occupy. Peace reigns again, so back to today and reality. But is today real? Twenty years ago the atomic bomb was lmi possible to conceive or realize. Yes, the future holds much in store for us. But one thing is certain, tomorrow is as real as today.

Tom speaks: NGee, it looks awful dark in there.H Butch: alt is dark, but the dark never hurt anybody.H Tommy: nDo you think we should go in?U Butch: nSure, its the only thing we can do. If the old man is there we've got to get him out before midnight.n Tommy: nWe've got to hurry a little faster if we are to get out of here by midnight.U Butch: lupon entering the house!

And nothing ever seemed just right If one of us was gone at night. Or maybe he was sick at home And then to school I'd go alone. But then one day in forty-three My brother joined the Infantry. And little did he know t'would mean That soon I'd be an only twin. He came to see us just once more, Then he was sent to Europe's shore. T'was at the battle of the Rhine That he went down mid'st blood and grime. And now when we sit down to eat, Beside me there's an empty seat. NO longer can I look and find His loving face, so good and kind. And oft at night in dreams I see, A vision of what used to be. When we were guided by our mother, Always me and my twin brother.

Sylvia Andrews '49 TO A FRIEND Tiny little buds which bloom through all the springs of time, Fragile little blossoms signify your heart and mine. Trained against the towering wall, the best of sun to reach, One was younger, more unwise, but they were beauties each. Grew they many hours together,both young flowers,true and strong, 'Til the finer one, impatient, did her hapless playmate wrong. Shadowed out the nourishing sunlight of her guidance, love and care And so the flowers of friendship die if truth they do not share., Joyce Morey '50 A LITTLE GIRLN I saw a little girl, She was cute as she could be, Sho had two big brown eyes, That spirklci merrily. She had an inpish grin, That brought dimples into view, She strutted proudly when she walked Because her shoes were new.

EQ N C ETS The Science classes make up an important part in our school studies. Through these studies, the student is able to study the composition and uses of the material things around him. We are living in the age when science has become a large and indispen- sable factor in our lives. Science teaches us to seek the truth of what controls the physical factors of our environment through careful observations and experiments. In this way, man has found out how to control and use these factors in order to improve his own conditions. The three science classes, General Science, Senior Science, and Chemistry have progressed rapidly under the able tutorship of Nr. Black this year. The General Science class was unusually large and many experiments were done before the class. Freouent pop quizzes kept the class on their toes. Daily discussions were held which aided the students in obtaining a better understanding of the principles expounded in his text. General Science offers the student a wide range of topics covering all the important physical factors such as air, water, earth, energy, weather, plants, and animals. It gives him 8 baS1G knowledge of the different elements which go into science. Chemistry deals with the composition of substances and the processes by which they can be transformed into usable compounds. Through our textbooks we gained useful knowledge of such basic elements and compounds as nitrogen,cabon, oxygen, sulphuric acid and sodium hydroxide whidlare found in important commercial prod- ucts like fertilizers, soaps, dyes, explosives, and countless other articles which we use every day. One can readily see why Chemistry is an important subject., During the year we spent most of the, time discussing the points and taking regular exams. Te also experimented with dif- ferent solutions in order to detect the chemical behavior of many important elements and compounds. One night we had an outside session where we learned to develop films and negatives. Senior Soienoais a more advanced course which offers practi- cal instruction on the composition, development and the various kinds of natural and commercial products we buy and use. .In this course we also learned something about the different trades and occupations which are always open for enterprising young men and women. The textbook gave us valuable information on what the consumer should look for when he purchases anything like food, clothing, building materials, household commodities and fuels. Senior Scienmaprovides the student with a practical, working knowledge of the material needs of his environment which he can always use regardless of what he does after school.. This is one of the chief reasons why science courses are vital towards build- ing a well-rounded education. Sidney Perham '49 CIVICS Civics is the study of our government--national, state, and local. Before studying civics, many of the pupils knew nothing whatsoever about how our country is governed. Civics teaches us several things, cnet of which is the many different ways in which a person may become a citizen of the United States. This year our civics teacher, Mr. Reid, has made our classes more interesting by giving us a chance to choose any project that we wished. ' I think that if everyone really studied civics that he wouki find it interesting and also very helpful in later life. Clara Hammond '51 L AT el N When a student is choosing courses, he quite often hesitates when Latin is suggested. Latin is not a hard study, and for the effort you put into it, it will probably repay you better than any other high school subject. If you learn Latin you won't con- fuse debit and Qrgdit in bookkeeping, or eguation and identity in algebra. Latin aids most in English. Not half as many words will be mispronounced and misspelled if you have a thorough knowledge of Latin. This year have Mr. Black the Punic Wars interesting as our Latin class consists of nine pupils, and we as our instructor. We have had a Latin movie about which was wholly in Latin dialogue. It proved very it aided us greatly in the pronounciation of the spoken Latin word. Elaine Agnus, Dale Emerius, Beatrcia Dobla, Maria Brettia, Margeria Dudlius, Josephus Perhamus, Richard Rogerius, Joycial Buckia and Lelandus Doughtius make up our class. .

STONE '52 We left West Paris about 2250 p.m, Washington looks a long way off. Stopped at Boston over night, --Up bright and early. Took off for West Point, N. Y. Look forward to seeing Bear Nt, Bridge over the Hudson. Got to Nest Point about 5 o'clock at night. Went shopping, had supper, and roundedcut the day by going to the movies. --Got on the grounds at West Point too early to get in the museum. Made good use of our time by going through the Chapel and looking the Delds and mon- uments oven Returned to the museum and gave that the once-over. Saw all kinds of weapons of war as well as lots of trophies, including Marshall ,Goerings' diamond studded baton. Would like to have tried the mechanics of some of the guns, but there were too many HDo Not Touchn signs. Left at noon and it's on to Uest Chester, Pa., for tonight's stopover. Today is a beautiful sunshiny day. Attended serv- ices at a Methodist Church. Everyone was very hospitable and the pastor had an interesting sermon. In the afternoon we visited Gettysburg, Pa. battlefield. This we explored very carefully. At the museum we saw the Battle of Gettysburg illustrated on an electric map. Stayed over at Frederick, Md. Washington D. C, at last! Whoopee, the Ford made it, Here's one time a Freshman gets a Jump on the Seniors, they won't be here for another three months. The first place we looked over was Lin- coln Memorial--very beautiful. Looking down the length of the pool which is in front of the Memo- rial we could see the Washington Monument and the dome of the Capitol. What a thrill? Went to the Monument and rode the elevator to the top. What a vlew and what a city. Took a brief look in the Smithsonian Institute. There are so many things there that I uouldn't describe then all, so just won t try. By late afternoon we were all tired and ready to go out to Chevy Chase where we are to stay with friends, Started off by going to the Zoo. Animals of all kinds, some I hadn t even heard of and p1enty'hat I have already forgotten their names. Went from was light and we made good time. By 8:30 we are Tues. Jan.l8 Wed. Jan. 19 Thurs.Jan. 20 Fri. Jan. 21 Sat. Jan. 22 Sun. Jan. 25 CContinuedJ here to the National Cathedral, one of the most beautiful buildings in the world. After lunch we wart up town and looked over the Capitol. Was most impressed by the rotunda fthe portion directly under the dome.D We saw the Senate in action, visited the Hall of Fame, the House of'Rep- resentativesg the Congressional Library, made of marble, reported to be the most beautiful building in D. C. Saw the original Constitution and Decla- ration of Independence. --Visited George Washington's home at Mount Vernon. In the afternoon we went to Boy Scout Headquartenn then finished out the day by going to the firewonm near the Monument. --This is the big day. Reported at Scout Headquar- ters at 8 A. M. By 10 we were assigned to our'posts on Pennsylvania Avenue as part of the Guard forthe parade route. At 12 the parade started. We weren't supposed to watch the parade, just the crowd. How- ever, when the President went by I had one eye fully on him. It was a great show, that parade. It lasted from 12:50 until about 5:50. The Govenxm from nearly every State was there and many states sent floats. Supreme Court judges, Cabinet officers Admirals, Generals it seemed as though the .silk hats would never end. West Point, Annapolis, the Maritime Aeademy,the Army, the Navy,the Air Force --they were all represented with hundreds marching down the Avenue, and planes flying over head. Vet- erans'0rganizations, Disabled Veterans,Boy Scouts, CivicClubs turnedout today to honor our President. It's the thrill of a lifetime for me. --Today is rainy. We're starting for home. Took a swing to Annapolis and saw the tomb of Johnlhul Jones and the Naval Academy. Stayed over night at Baltimore. Came across the famous Conewingo Dam power project and through Philadelphia. Passed over the Pulaski Skyway between New York and New Jersey. Got a good look at the N. Y. skyline but didn't go throughthe city. Also came over George Washington bridge and the parkway up to Darien, Conn. for our overnight stopz --wen, this is the mast day of our trip. Traffic home, after a never to-be-forgotten trip. 1 T fx-S-'EN 2QiQxg,. we ss- X I q Y- ' flume-:C fff' ' xxxx f! 'x C O M M E ,KC IA L D E Pi-X KT M E N T The Commercial Course this year under the direction of Mrs. Ross has offered the pupils the following subjects: Typing I R II, Shorthand I d II, Bookkeeping, General Math. and Commercial Arithmetic. ' In each of these subjects the pupils have learned the impor- tance of following instructions accurately. The Typing I Class has progressed exceptionally well. Every one has earned at least one award and many are earning awards offered in Second Year Typing. An adding machine was added to the Commercial Department which proved to be a valuable asset in our Bookkeeping Class. The girls in Shorthand II were fortunate this year to be able to take part in actual office work. Penley's, United Feld- spar, and Berham's kindly donated their time and patience to give them the benefits of real office work. The girls all enjoyed it and it will prove a help to them in the future. Two of the second year Shorthand students took Civil Service Examinations this spring. Final results have not been received. Many awards have been won in typing and shorthand.

Stan Doughty and his cousin, Don Doughty, did a wonderful Jobtogetheras forwarda Sid Perham and Bob Young did a good job on rebounds and working around the key hole. nHammerU Emery and Richard Abbott brought the ball up-floor from their guard positions Sophomore Joe Perham and Freshman Ray Polvinen did a fine job at substituting in both forward and guard positions. Frank Slattery, Bud Hadley, Dave Ellingwood and John Andrews were other substitutes that the coach worked in. During the year, Stan Doughty tossed in lO5 field goals, 51 free throws for a total of 241 points. We had three other men, Don Doughty, Sid Perham, and Captain nHammeru Emery who tossed in quite a bit over a hundred points apiece. This year in the Western Maine Tourney we won our first game from Porter High with a score of 51-46. On our next try, New Gloucester edged us out by a score of 50-42. The Uwestiesu could not seem to get going. At graduation thmsyear Coach Reid is going to lose three nn, Center Sid Perham and the two guards, Captain Emery and Richard Abbott. We have good material coming up from Grammar School that Coach Reid can pick from, and I think that next year we may have an even better team. BASEBXXLL At the start of our season the batteries looked very good, but the fielding behind them was the big question. Coach nDoodien Reid tried all candidates and now has a fine team. Stan Doughty and uBudn Hadley are throwing up the ball. So far, neither one has allowed more than five hits,and the team has fielded fairly well behind them. Don Doughty is behind the plate. When one of the pitchers is on the mound the other plays first base. Joe Perham is at second, nHammerH Emery at third and young freshman Ray Polvinen at short. In the outfield Richard Abbott is at left, young freshman Robert Martin at right, and UBign Dale Hodgkins at center. This combination makes a good outfield. Robert Young, David Ellingwood, Wesley Pierce, nBeaverU H - er tell, nPopN Buck, Frankie Slattery, Frankie Small and uLuncH' Doughty are subs. If everything turns out all right,West Paris should give the other schools quite a rub. Up to date we have won eight straight ball games. Gordon Doughty '49 F ff W L .4 q ' ' G hi L sf BA 1i,.K.f1 IBAL L Our season of basketball was fairly successful this year, although we were handicapped by having only a few substitutes. The members of the first team were: iForwardsD Pauline Abbott, Joyce Morey, Rosalie Buck QGuardsj Jane Day, Elaine Lamb, Virginia Buck, Doris Wermenchuk, and June Heikkinen as substitute Later, Flossie Buck and Beverly Smith did their share in .helping our team to be successful in winning six of the twelve games play- ed. We were handicapped during the first two games because oneof our forwards, Rosalie Buck, was unable to play. Our manager at the beginning of the season was Patrkna Baken Lilja Mustonen and Flossie resumed that position when Patricia left. Our success was due to the able coaching of Miss Webber and Mr. Black. bJ-F.f1f ...J Softball season aroused the interest of a great number of the girls last fall. We were only able to play two games because cold weather interrupted our schedule, This spring we joined a league with South Paris, Dixfield, Rumford, Mexico, and Bryant Pond. We are very unlucky in having only nine girls on our squad. The girls are: Evelyn Rogers, Joyce Morey, Doris Wermenchuk, Jane Day, Mary Tamminen, Pauline Abbott, Rosalie Buck, Virginia Buck, and Elaine Lamb. Joan Tamminen has been very helpful by substi- tuting for us. Mr. Black is very efficient as a coach. We hope to be more successful in the remaining games. swing Doris Wermenchuk '50 C. . f 3 f' ,P ....,. 1,-,.5.f, X., 3-lf C , ' -- W'fNKQEbJw-4 ff!! - Q4 x. .
