On the surface, it apoeers to be functioning smoothly and efficiently, but if one studies the sit- uation carefully, he will detect many irregularities that should not present themselves in a system of education so vast as thatof the United States. It has advantages, naturally, the mejor one being thatpublic education is the last vestige of States-rights that exists on any large scale. The conservative faction of our country demand that the Federal government play Uhands-offn with the education of our children. They believe, and rightly so, that if the government aids our education financially then it will soon start dictating policies. AD undesirable feature of this system might -be that 'there would be considerable consolidation of schools in order to: ll? reduce areas reouiring insoectors or commissioners: C25 lower the cost of mrintnining hundreds of unneccessary buildingsg fl? eliminate future construction of many small buildings to provide for the raoidly expanding school enrollment. However, let us look over the good side of this measure and attemot to devise a system to smooth out the difficulties, First, the state handling of public education on the surface seems to orovide adequate facilities for the schools. The towns supoort and direct the schools in their own respective ways, meanwhile maintaining certain standards which the states set up in order to receive from the state, financial reimbursement for a oortion of the funds that are exoended. Thus, schools are able to exist, but only on the barest minimum of necessary eouinment and teachers. If, on the other hand, this some situation existed with the states in turn being reimbursed by the federelgovernment for a oortion of their exoenditures in education, the steteswould not be afraid of soending their money in order to build end main- tain well-eouicoed and well-directed schools that any child would be glad to attend. You will hear the conservatives screaming about the national debt, but they may scream in vain. Certainly we have a huge debt, but on whose shoulders does it rest! Natu- rally on the caoitclists, but are they kicking! Cf course they're not, their money is drawing interest and if the government should fail because of its debt or for any reason whatsoever, theirmoney would be no good anyway. Therefore, I still contend that federal aid to educationwill be the ultimate achievement of those who are not afraid ofchange. Francis Slattery '50 3 ..,.,5?li. .

This patriot had been accused of spying for the United States, and was ihout to be hanged by the E1itieh.lWhen asked if he had anything to say for or against his punishment he said, UI only regret that I have but one life to lose for my eountry.H These were the last words of Nathan Hale, for he was that famous American patriots Nathan Hale died for a cause, HAmericanism,N and he sincerebr loved his country. He lived and worked for it and finally sealed his loyalty by giving his life that others might have the priv- ilege of knowing the freedom that an American has rather than suffering under the British tyranny at that time, He could have said that he didnft want to die and pleaded for his life, but perhaps he hoped that a few would remember his speech and profit by it in the years yet to come. Hale kindled a fire in the hearts of all true Americans, and other leading Americans--Lincoln, HTeddyU Roosevelt, and the late president Franklin Roosevelt--have added their part to that 'fire until it has spread over a broader area than any other known doc- trine of faith. Lately however, it has met opposition in the form fast-growing of nCommunismU that is becoming a wide-spreading, terror largely in Russia, Poland, Finland, parts of China, Czecho- slovakia, and has even penetrated the United States. ' Which doctrine should be the leading one, uCommunismn or nAmericanismn? This should be of paramount interest to all'of us For example, under Communistic rule all but a select few are forced to turn over all that they earn to the government, to Sta- lin, and the other dominating figures in Russia and its satel- lites. They have a very meager existence with no privileges or freedoms whatsoever. If the people in the United States continue to act as they have been, and take no interest in world affairs we shall soon be overcome by the communistic doctrine, and that will be a dan- gerous situation in which to bo, We should then lose our capitalh istic form of government in which we are allowed, as individuals, to keep or use as we see fit what we earn. We now have many rights and freedoms that we can enjoy if we abide by the laws un- der which we are governed. Every individual in the United States, regardless of race, position, can show his loyalty to tho color, creed, or social United States by- acting as a real citizen and protecting the rights which we have had preserved for us by our forefathers in the past generations and we should feel it our duty to do so. If each citizen accepted this responsibility he would be prooving his loyalty to the greatest cause of all--UAmericanism.N If Mary Brett '52 X K lp' - 1-'q -- ' e1r' q Xl ,e. r H' -nfs 9 xl - IOUTM his LJ 1 --..sl ,Jr funn.,-xl -Mg'-,-gf-,xxu fo-'fs xrr .IJi.F.LJ lj..fXf.fQJ,?1 xjf IQJWIQJJQJQCJXIX! 3 In these times of moral, sepverational, and national chaos there arises e freouently asked Gh9StlJH based on wanton pessi- mism, Wwhat is the world coming t.PY I am perhaps biased, but nevertheless I say, ULook to your children, who represent a new, growing nation, for your answer. Yes, the youth is the citizen of tadey as well as their fathers and their prandfethers. The age of 21 years is merely an average, chosen by some one of our past law makers, as the ape a person is most ready to undertake the responsibilities of family and state. I claim that e man is either made or broken before he is 21 years of age. For example, look to your sports world and note the apes of greet athletes. The physical strensth, keen senses and natural leadership make the youthful player more proficient then those who are older. Then look to your prisons: It is there you see the harsh capabilities of youth. Some of the most hardened and dangerous criminals are under 21 years of ape! Therefore, citizenship must begin at 0 much earlier date. les, true democratic citizenship goesall.the way back to the cradle whenthe child first breathes the fresh, free slr that will someday be his to protect. No one is born prepared to live in a democracy such as ours, He must first be modeled by the master hand of experience, from wild, thoughtless childhood, to re- sponsible citizenship. Tt is at this point, birth, that you, who are given the title of citizens, must step in and see that this Nsrowlns cltlzenn is brousht up the right way. In the home, which may be the deciding factor in his life, present to the youth a form of home or local government. If the home and family has its own laws, freedoms, and duties, which contribute to the commongood.of its members, the chances are that a ch1ld'will have leerned early the moral and social obligations of e good citizen. From the church he learns to love God end his fellow man. Through the youth's constructive school years he finds many things which tie directly into the blueprint of the true citizen. There he finds a cross section of life as it is. By separating the good from the bad, rnd keeoins an open mind to all problems, he leerns eerly that elonp with the sweet comes the bitter, and for each privilege there must be a responsibility. Athletics build for mental and physical prowess and develop an incentive toward team work and fair play. Speech training and public sperklng teach the youth self-expression and constructive argu- mentlveness along with developinp power end depth of the voice. A good speaker is repfrded by meny es the some of leadership. ,The crossroad of ngrowing upn usuallyis represented by grad- uation from high school. After graduating the youth may further his education by going to college or he may go directly to work. But wherever he goes, whatever he does, he csrrles with him only the degreecM'cit1zensh1p developed preylous to his 21st birthday. After studying the words of such great men as Washington, Franklin, and Lincoln, the intellectual giants of their day, I have come to the conclusion that the answer to the Question pre- viously mentioned lies in preparing the youth for, and treating him as a true citizen of the United States. I am convinced that it is this everyday participation and training for citizenship that will develop the lenders we must hrve tomorrow! For the fate of our Nationas a democracy end the world as a civilization rests on keeping an unceaslng stream of leaders filling every walk of life' Joseph Perham '51 . I 2 A FOUNDf-XTION FOR THE FUTU,R,E. The life of man,as the building of a skyscraper, is laid out day by day and story upon story withthe careful precision used on all complex forms. The determining factor in whether or not the skyscraper will be a durable structureis the building foundation: the formative yearscn-youth of mankind is the foundation for fut- ure existence. Whether he will rise to majestic heights or tumble in ruin to the earth is unforseen, but it may be better predeter- mined if he lays a solid foundation on a basis of education. Several days ago a little child was heard to exclaim, Nwhen I grow up, I'm going to be a fire ch1ef,U and it is entirely possible that he may do so if he plans for the future through the medium of formal education. In a world of specialization, the multitude of professions and businesses are demanding better educated people. There is no place for the youth who cults as soon as he is old enough, or the one who stops at grammar school, and more and more we find the boy with the high school diploma being edged out by the man who is a college graduate. A8 long as our present systemis employed in trade, commerce, agriculture, etc., a large percentage of our population will of necessity remain menial laborers. This connotes a type of person generally lacking in education and is, in a great degree, true. A remedy for this situation is clearly reouired, as the ordinary working man certainly needs the restful diversification more easily obtained by the better educated man. Our invincible youth finds the boundaries of opportunity ln- discernible, with a scope of unlimited professionsg let them keep in mind that all this is attainable only if they choose a better education as a solid foundation to the future. . 1 Joyce Morey '50 .,., .Il I , X X WM XX I uf 'H NNQXUQ x Q N xffiw yf ,f1 :gg4 i 4, I H X ff!

Now there was only darkness, dariness that would linger until she died, darhness that would forever ban her from the fast-moving band of her childhood. If she had been human, she ceuld have spoken, told her com- panions of her fear and utter'bew1ldernentj but'she was nothuman, she could utter no word of protest. She lifted her heed and gave e long, pleading call of utter despair. The wind sighed back to her. There was no other sound. Slim of les, swell of head and body, and oddly colored, she wfs a four-footed creature known as a horse. Ver muvzle, mene end tell were hlech. mhree of her legs had blac? stochlnas which ran to her knees but the left hind lee was all black end so was that side of her rumn. mhe rest of her body was deooled grey. Where were her coroenions? Uer nostrils dilated but shecould not catch their scents on the eentle breeze, Cautiously she too? a step and then another. Fesitatlncly, she wade her way down the last mountain trail that led to a vast, sveeoing treeless plain. mreeless except for a clumo of cottonvoods at the northern end of the valley. She knew that the valley was here for in it she had been born and had spent three of the four years of her life. Fer shaggy, tangled mane curled in the breeze as she dropped her heed to graze. As the weels passed, she srev slightly accustomed to the darkness and besan to trot from place to place, occasionally stretching to a mile-eating lose. A year passed and she now could run as she pleased, her nose and ears warning her when to halt. It had been hard for her and several tires she'had crashed to the ground with jarring force when the earth had droyped benefth her feet. Once she had slammed into one of the cottonvoods, lucflly escaping with only a badly bruised shoulder. From thet day on she liroed whenever she walhed but never again did she mdstafe a tree for open country, for her keen esrs now knew the rustle of the leaves. The black-grey raised her grey head and twitched her black ears. A faint rumble was all she heard. Her black-rimrednostrils sniffed the felling breeze. Horses, s whole herd of them! dhe could catch their scents nov and could heer them frdsklns about. 'H A' ffT?Qf'Jf??f?'l , 55,551 uh Something warned her of danger and she braced herself, A snerting,snapping white stallion crashed against her side, almost rolling her over. Sharp teeth tugged at her mane fans a naturefshod hoof landed on her ribs.. . 'Jhee1ing, she fled,her mane and tail waving in the returning breeze. ' ' Turning, the stallion surveyed his herd. How's this? he thought. A young stallion met.his gaze. Unnoticed, he had slipped in among the herd. Charging furiously, the white stud drove him out. That night it rained. Thunder rolled throughout the sky and the lightning made the white studis colts tremble, The lonely little mare nas huddled close to one of the cotton- woods, little dreaming of the danger that awaited her, The storm had made her nervous but something else was there also, something that shou1dn't be there. A big, tawny, mountain cat had followed the white leader's herd into the valley, and new was perched on a limb of one of the cottonwoods. A brilliant flash of lightning revealed the quivering horse. With a low growl, he leaped nearer to her. New he was directly above her, his body crouched, his legs tensed. She threw back her head nervously, her nostrils caught his scent. With a scream of terror, she leaped ahead. The long, knife--like claws raked her shoulders but she swerved sharply and he lost his hold. 1 Something thnndered past her, a low rumble sounding in its throat. She recognized him as one of the new horses. It was the black stallion which the white stud had driven out of the herd. I Furieusly he charged the bewildered eati seconds ago so sure of his meal, and new facing a charging, snorting plunging deter- mined stallion who, bv instinct, was fighting for his mare. lhe tewnyecolored creature decided that, even thouuh he was hungry, he Jasnft that hunyry, He fled, as fast as his heavily- muscled legs v.'ould'l'2fl'lfe1f1J Lim te. Shaking his massive head, for though he was only five years old, he was a big horse, the black turned towards the mare. She didn't run when he approached her, she didnft lay back her ears when his muzzle touched hers. Slowly they moved off together, her head oven with his shoulder. The morning sun pooped into the valley, A coyote uttered one last howl before slinking homo to his mate. A rabbit scurried to cover and a bird flew overhead. Everything was all right news A new day was here. -' 'ta Never again would fear and uncertainty take the warmness from thc summer sun and thegoodness from the dow-laden grass. She had, for now and as long as she lived, a protector. Virginia Ward '55 -rl El xrv -IJ i. I.: ,xx X 1 1 1' .. .D iii.

Green water was surrounding him on all sides. It was hot and stuffy inside that rubber suit and he could feel his heart beating methodically and hear blood pound against his temples as the ter- rific pressure seemed to suppress him. That horrible push that was ever present on every square inch ofhis body trying Uasqueeze him like an accordlan. He was alone, the only living human in that vast wilderness of water, Deep down inside him he knew he wanted to turn back, he wanted to step back onto the comparative safety of thegdatform that had brought him to this infernal place where the weight of the whole ocean was upon him,but he could not turn back now. His life, his fortune,--yes, his whole future depended on this trip into the depths. His thoughts turned to his immediate dangers. That lifeline didn't look too good--LU'Godl what was that,--a drop of water on his shoulder?--his hair stood on end at the thought, he froze in his tracks. Then he saw it, a small trickle of water coming in through a crack in the helmet. He emitted a scream which turned quickly to a gurgle as the helmet gave way leaving him enveloped by that slimy, green liquid. with the weight of the ocean upon him he bent forward and sank out of sight beneath the mud.

I reckon you ought to have a little somethin' for your troubles but times been kinda hard with me for quite a while and I'm pretty low on legal tender. Say y' ainftgot a cigarette have ya? Thanks you're mighty obligin' to a bum like me. Huh, musta dozcd off a bit, yeah, I got relatives in the 1andin'. The old lady lives there all alone. Shc's had pretty rough goin' for quite a spell. They was only three of us boys. Johnny, the only one of us who amounted to much died when he was just a kid. As far as 'that goes, Jimmy was all right too, but you know the old excuse, no will-power, bad company ------ I'm the only one left up in the landin'. They think I'm hot stuff. They get the idea from the old lady, She tells I7m a big banker out west and that as soon as I find time I'm comin' to take her back with me. Poor old soul, she didn't want to let on that I wan't no good, She likes to hear her friends talk about her rich son. Makes her feel pretty important.

Being a druggist, I know prac- tically all of the local gossip such as: Mrs. Witchalfs 81-year- old youth is a result of the famous Lydia Pinkhamls Compound and Color Back, bachelor John Nolanis recent episode with the school teacher, Miss Pratt, from New Yorkls higher set.

IN THE LAST PEW a Sunday morning. a nice long church -seven values those peaceful Sunday excursions into the house of God. Alfred Blastwinder was early to rise on Who wouldn't be if there was the prospect of service before him?' After all, a man of sixty Being a man of keen hearing, he had always chosen the last pew to enable those less fortunate than himself to be nearer the of God in his soul. Now and as the last bells sliphtly sideways' in an altar, for Alfred already had a measure he settled back on the timeworn bench, beckoned ceurteously, his head tipped attitude of complete absorption. ' the muffled noises, A1- s for just a moment be- it beamed and twinkled, but as its concentrated rays seeped through the magic prisms of stained glass, the sun and all its complementary elements became manifest in the resurrecting of the old man's soul. As the organ prelude contributed to fred felt quite safe in closing his eye cause--well, the sun was in them. Outside Doxology, invocation--the pre5ram flowed quietly onward in the familiar pattern. As the hymns were begun the people rose in a body and Alfred began to sins in a subdued tone, still with his eyes shut, while the resplendent glory of the sun beat down upon God's house. Yet, the light within was, in some places, gloomyg in others, soft beacons appeared to be playing upon the upturned faces, and yet other spots seemed to be hazy mixtures ofvarigated shades. The offertory pealed forth, and Alfred reached automatically to his vest pocket for the neatly folded envelope. This time one eye opened just a moment to insure the careful placing of his usual offering. The sermon this mornind was on the unbroken conscious exist- ence after death, and as the quiet little minister extolled onthe personal second coming of Christ, Alfred nodded in private agree- ment. Fer he believed in salvation and had repented his sins long ago. And as the familiar pattern continued, he began to drift along with the quietly beautiful sun rays. l Every little while one eyelid would lift pereeptibly, but it was not necessaryg when the time came Alfred Blastwinder would rise mechanically, under no volition of his own, and leave the sun to seek comfort playing upon the hard boards in the last pew. Joyce Morey '50 0 P 'f :fN fl' X ul 5, 'x..1k.j VL, A K I have been going for a long time. A day, a week, who knows? In this land of the hidnight Sun itfs day or night with no appre- ciable dividlng line between the hellish gray light of the tortu- ous day and soft, soothing colors of the unbearable night. And Cold! In God's name, may you never know the biting winds and the sub-zero temperature of the artic storm. I'll tell you about it--the arctic that is. The cold kicks you in the guts and scrapes your lungs raw so much that you want to quit. But you keep plodding on, always onward. You can't stop! You don't dare to stop because you realize that if you do the Shadow of Death will slowly pass over your worn-out body and leave you there on a frozen bier, a victim of the raging elements. It all seems ridiculous nov, giving up the comforts and se- curity of the Warm city to taie yourself beyond the frontiers of civilization, to seek out the treasures of this frozen hell. Yet sold 1sn't the only, the crime, reason for your undergolng the dangers and loneliness of the forbidden wilderness. Cut there, beyond the horizon of these primeval wastes, is a peaceful para- dise, a haven from all the demned greed and corruption of civili- zation! Yes, out there, somewhere, is hapoinessg and you hnow it. But nov there is doubt in your mind. You wonder if perhaps you vent a step too far. into the ridiculous to undergo an ordeal whose outcome Hasn't within the scope of reason. The beauty that had so stirred your dormant emotion at first is nov becoming a grim reality. The colors, the infinite blue of e clcudless fir- mament and the oale, white softness of the blanketina snows, ere now running together to become a harsh greyish barrier that so deadens your sight and so rack your brain you think you're going nuts. Now, for some reason, you begin to quiet down, You keep walking, searching out the light that you know must be Justahead. But there is no light! There is only the blackness, known only to those who have snowblindnesel It is slowly overcoming your senses. The fury of the stinging blast is now upon you, but do you care? No! Your senses do not even remember the cold. In its place is warmth spreading over all your body. You slowly relax and let your muscles respond to this new sensation. It is soft, pleasant, sooth1ng--- Then, from nowhere it seems, comes the sound of music. The familiar, beautiful music of your home town band. The melodious strains of your nother's genius at the organ. The light you have been searching for so long gently dawns before your vision. The heavens open to radiate rays of soft, golden sunshine. You slowly raise your eyes that have now been cleared of all fog and blind- ness:---and---and you understand, Joseph Parham '51 If sr 1 I f'f'fi 'R as .-N.,-J It , rig:-4 1N.jfgbV Mary Sampson sat at the window of her small kitchennervously watching first the clock and then peering through the window to catch a glean of light which would he her hushand's lantern. f i Yff?1:f Us A , Peter Sampson, keeper of the lighthouse at Candle Point, had gone to Littleton, about ten miles away, for the week's supply of food. The trip usually took 'about half a dai. It was now five o'clock and darkness was fast closing in on the lonely house perched on a cliff overlooking Salmon Bay. Peter had been gone since ten this morninl. During his absence, a severe storm had risen and new the tiny lighthouse fairly shook as the Qale struck with full force. Mary could not leave because she must he on the look-out for any ship which might get too nemfthe rocks. Every twenty minutes she swung the great light out over the water. The rocks near the shore loomed up as large as a house and Mary, though quite couraf geous, was wont to shiver as she thought of the long, dark night ahead and her husband somewhere between her and Littleton, The storm Qrew more fierceg the waves breaking on the shore seemed to shout ULostl Lost: Lostld She imagined she heard a crash against the rocks when no welcome light apeeared. A Five-twenty--time to send out the liQht again, On her way to the light, she stumbled over something. Her heart was in her mouth! The lantern! Peter did not have his lantern with him! How would he cet home? It was now pitch dark and there was not a house hetween the town and their home. She must find Peter, re5ardless of tending the lighthouse. hastily she donned a coat and an old cap of Peter's, took her lantern and ventured along the road to the town. The wind was so strong, it nearly took her off her feet. The rain heat down until she could hardly see a foot ahead of her. She was thinking of Peter out in this stern with no light of any kind LL J. Q Once she stopped, hut only the roaring of the waves on the shore reached her ears. If Peter should happen to he ten feet away, shouting with all his nisht, she could not hear him. Somehow the road did not lock famiian or was this the road? Was she lost, too? KH of a sudden she slipped and fell and there she lay, face down in the mud. Exhausted and spent with worry, she was unable to rise. She dreamed she saw Peter coming to help her, hut the vision faded away and Mary Sampson's soul departed from this earth. ' The next dey oeople came from the town to see how the kef-oer and his wife had survived the storm.

They yearn to be amongst us as we graduate today, But must be content with talking, and this is what they say: Just look at Donnie Doughty! Heis a Romeo, we knew, . The girls all love to dance with this dashing Senior beau. A Dairy Queen is Frances Cole, with a title she's earned well, Sho stands high in all hor classes and we all think she is swell Richard is our farmer, yet he likes to call our bluff, We'll invite him down to town sometime if farming gots too rough You see the dust a-flying, and it's Flossie at her work, When'ero she has to study, we know sho'll never shirk. A businessman is Robert, and a man of many thoughts, There's good luck in store for him, Ifm sure we wish him lots. Maxine is our shortest, and a plueky girl, no doubt, When she grows a little taller, we will all stand up and shout. The best in athletics, good sportsmanship his creed, Stanley is our best Hall-round,n of that we are agreed. Rebecca works so very hard, and deserves hor share of praise, You'll find her in the office, let's hope she gets a raise. Francis is our smartest, and a Navy man is he, Weill remember him with fondness as he sails upon the sea. A poppy girl is everywhere, and Betty is her name, She likes to go to dances and cheer at baseball games. Carolyn likes to stay at homo, yet gots her work all done, She likes to ge out dancing and is always having fun. I did all this snooping, and I know they'ro going to say, Joyce is the senior who will live to rue this day. But Ifm glad I found it all out, and I tell it without fear, I wish them all the fun we had throughout our senior year, 'Q 's My . a 2f:ixl 3, ffygzfy, f fx Mg v F5513 54 ' egg., 575 X f:q:gg,,, .1 R376 ' nv wfngwy j X- , .1 I N fx 1 'I , ,L L-W - ' Wax .' 1-.14 Z, if 15 5 .5. ,i X I K' P j:, 713, .L- w ill-Q ' Er . ,...,,. - ..

W. '55 FRENCH 'l We have noticed in our work so far, the similarity, in some cases the identity, of many French and English words. In fact we rely a good deal on this relationship for sight reading. Do you know why French so often resembles English? The reason is this: both languages count Latin one of their importantancestors. Nine- ty per cent of all French words are of Latin origin and more than half of our English words are latin in origin also. Latin invaded Gaul fthe old name for France? with Caesar and his legions in 58 B. C. and in time completely superseded the various dialects of that country. Latin came to England a hundred years later with theconquer- ing army of Emperor Claudius, and stayed there with the people on the Island for M00 years. It came next, curiously enough, by the Anglo-Saxon pirates who seized Britain after troops were nolonger sent from Romegfor these pirates too had had long intercoursewith Rome as soldiers, slaves, and merchants. It came again in the 16th century stronger than ever before when Roman Augustine and forty brother monks traveled northward to convert the island to Christianity. Thus in 1606 it came to stay in the form of French when William the Conoueror laysuccess- ful claim to the English throne. I Our French class this year has the total enrollment of six which arezhetsy Dolphin, Joseph Perham, Jane Day, Phyllis Abbott, Joyce Buck, and Margery Dudley. Under Mr. Black's instruction, which has been displayed in such an interesting and educational manner, most of us arelooking forward to next year when again we'll meet in our classroom for the work that lies ahead. Margery Dudley '52 WORLD HISTORY From the time when man first began to reason, he has triedto find the answer to what makes the world go round. He has beenever seeking, never accepting things as they were, but changing, ex- ploring--devislngrumrmethods and better eouipment to aid thewbrld in its daily revolutions. Yetrmumstlll remains the basic ingredientin the wor1d's mel- ting pot. From 5000 B. C. through the present century he has been creating powerful machines destined to change humanity in many ways, yet these developments have never superseded the ever-dom- inant man. How man has been able to make such amazing advances through- out the centuries is the essence of World History. It shows usnot only who is famous, but why: also, what were the causes of past failures, and the elements pertaining to the destruction of past civilizations. ' The all-roundcitizenof today must be familiar withthegmst, to enable him to act for the best possible benefits for the most people. Our World History classes strive to teach us the pest, so thatwe may pain a better understanding of the present and future. Italy, and a out history was being Italian wilds and settlement which achievement as to to be established Joyce Morey '50 LATIN in a fer-off land which we now know as up from the mouth of the Tiber River, A certain two brothers, raised in the by a she-wolf, srew up to form a small later was to rise to a height of grandure and rival and conouer nearly all theluumnmworld and as one of h1story's greatest empires. This, of About 2,250 years ago 20 miles formed. nurtured course, was Rome and the Roman Empire. , These great people had to have a common medium--a language. From them we get spoken--Latin. Now, the fact one of the most basic and helpful tongues ever thatthe Roman Empire existed so long ago brings attentlontcvthe cuestlon--How can Latin whichis a Hdeadu language help us in our lives? The answer is, in short, that nearly lf? of the English lan- guage is derived either directly or indirectly from Latin. Nearly all the prefixes we use come from, and mean the same as they do in, Latin. If a person takes an interest in Latin and studies it, he should have no trouble with English grammar and vocabulary. Therefore, Latin cannot be a ndeadn language as so many peo- ple insist, but a thriving and beneficial source of knowledge which lives in all our lives.

Through the courtesy of several of the businessmen in town they worked in the following offices: L. M. Mann 8 Son, Penley Brothers, United Feldspar, and the Maine Mineral Store. In May, the first and second-year shorthand students visited the Norway National Bank. We watched the operation of several machines including the automatic cashier, proof machine, ledger posting machine, recordak and the calculator. Ne certainlyappre- ciated the courtesy of Kr. Smith and his employees in spending their time with us. An excellent job has been done in the office this year under the direction of Mrs. Ross. The commercial seniors have donemost of the work with the first-year shorthand students assubstitutes. Several under-classmates have helped with this work and their efforts are erratly appreciated. Under the present plan we have eliminated the use of the office as a study hall. It has been completely changed: the desk was remodeledg a new filing cabinet added: and signs put on the doors. Some potted plants have added a great deal to the general appearance of the office. ' We have tried to conduct the office as a businessman would want his taken care of. It is the duty of each elrl to keep the office dusted, the bookshelves in order, answer the phone,rece1ve callers and do any work that one of the teachers may need to have done. FLHFQGT TLQTS Pupil.

G. A. A Clara Hammond PUBLIC SPE A-KING A new form of activity has been introduced into West Paris High School this year and has captured the hearts of many pupils. This is in form of public speaking teams which, as we have found out, have as much team work involved as our hardy athletic teams of baseball and basketball. The newly-formed Oxford County Public Speaking League pro- vides that public speahing contests or Hmeetsn Ceithercompetitive or noncompetitivel may be arranged between any two of the small schools in Oxford County and also provides that teams of six rep- resent their respective schools in these meets. The schools are: 'est Paris, Woodstock, Diyfield, Suckfield, Oxford and Canton. Our own local contest began our public speaking year and was held in much the same way as it has for many years. We held our preliminaries and then our finals which took place on February 16 at the Fest ?ar1s Gym. The winners were: Senior--Junior--Freshman Division lst--Boys--Jo seph Parham lst--Girls--June Heikhinen Sophomore Division lst--Boys--Fr lst--Girls--P honorable Mention Boys--Eugene Girls--Joyce anklin Stone auline Baker Stone Buck NAmerican Sirn nThe Tidow's Mitesn H?eyond The Last Mileu Hhome TownRehearsalU U3rothers In A Battlen UT1pping Off Teachern On Larch 14, at Test Paris Gym, we held a non-competitive meet with feedstock with beth teams doing a wonderful Jobl vest Paris speakers were: Bradley Perham, Frank Perham, Arthur Hatch, Leland Doughty, Constance Dolphin and Frank Small. On March 51, at the Methodist Church in Buckfield, we had another meet which proved very successful. U, P. H. S. had, with one exception, an entirely new tram of speakers: Joseph Perham, Pauline Baker, Franklin Stone, Eugene Stone, Charles Faines and Constance Dolphin. West Paris High held its third inter-school meet on April 4 with Dixfield High School. This was a competitive meet and had still another West Paris team participating. The striking fact about this meet was its judging. It is a new way of judging and we hope that in the future more stress will be put on this type of competition. The contest is split up into as many different divisions as there are types of selections--for example, the Dix- field-Uest Paris Contest came up with these winners and this score ....

At this point I wish 'ou to notice that W, P. H. S, has not - J A l one, nor two, but three covplete puolic sneaking teams. Those members who have honorably participated in any public speaking e- vent in the name of T, F. H. 5, are eligible for his or her let- ter, an English P. The following speakers to receive letters are: Joseph Parham, Joyce Buck, Joyce lorey, Franklin Stone, June Heikkinen, Margery Dudley, Bradley Ferham, Leland Doughty, Frank Parham, Constance Dolphin, Arthur Hatch, Frani Small, Eugene Stone, Charles Haines, Blanche Dolphin, Alta Tlllett, and Pauline Baker.

April 22 was the date that three of our cpeakers, Joseph Perham, Charles Haines, and Margery Dudley represented T. P. H. S. at the State Contest held at the University of Maine. Charles and Margery placed very high in their respective Humorous and Dramatic Divisions and Joseph won first place in the Original Oratory Division with his speech on nTrain1ng for Citizenship in The United Statee.' He was awarded a gold and onyx inscribed medal and was automatically made eligible nn'the,National.Ebrens1c High Contest held at Kencsha, Wisconsin. April 25, Charles Haines and Joyce Buck entered the Spear Contest held at the Edvard Little Auditorium in Auburn. They did a very commendable job but lost out in the final judging. May 15 marked the end ofpublic speaking for the year of 1950. This is the date Joseph Perham traveled to Colby College, Water- ville to enter the Kontgomery Interscholastic Contest. This is a New England Contest in which only Original Orations are eligible. Joefs participation in this contest was well worth while for he squeezed by all competition to take the first prize of Q75 and thereby strengthened West Paris High's standing' in public speak- ing participation'and achievement. The winners, selected from a field of twenty speakers from all parts of New England were as follows: lst Joseph Perham--West Paris, Maine--Q75 2nd John Murphy, Jr.--Lawrence, Massachusetts--S50 3rd Donald Taylor--Rockland, Maine--S55 4th Harold Sullivan--Bangor, Maine--Q25 5th John Zanes--Laconia, New Hampshire--Q15 This contest brought the public speaking year at West Paris School to a fitting climax and we, the students, hope that the coming school year will find as much interest and participa- tion in this vitally important form of extra curricular activity. In closing this write-up we, the public speakers, wish to mention that these contests and meets held this year would mmshave been possible if it were not for the combined work and interestof our Public Speaking Coach and Harold Perham, President of the Pub- lic Speaking League of Oxford County. The coaching was done by our friend,advisor and professional coach Hrs. Esther T. Anderson who has helped build sneakers-inll 3 v .L P. H. S. for the last fifteen years. We want to thank Mrs. Anderson, Hr. Perham, and all those people interested in public speaking for making this trial year of public speaking at W. P. H. S. an enjoyable and overwhelnaing success.

This hard luck was due to the fact that only three vmwrans from the years past remained. This year we are losing our star center forward,Captain Joyce Morey with a score of 261 points to her credit. The members of the team were: Pauline Abbott RF, Miriam Briggs LF, Captain Joyce Morey CF,Flossie Buck CG,Elaine Lamb RG, Jeanne Lamb LG, Connie Dolphin LF, Frances Cole CF, Betsy Dolphin CG, Jane Day RG, and June Heikkinen LG. Our substitutes were good this year and we lacked only one of having a complete second team. This next year should prove fruitful because of the many rugged girls who will come to us from the eighth grade to aid the veterans of this year. PHYSICAL EDUCAT.ION ' Every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from 2:45 to 5:30 a group of girls who do not go out for athletics, take Phys Ed. There are from 14 to 28 high school girls, not counting the eighth graders who come out to match points with us very often. Our coach, Mr. Black, can see many improvements as the months roll by. In addition to the benefits derived from these activities, much enjoyment is found in playing basketball, volleyball, soft- ball, and badminton. Although our equipment for gym class is extremely limited, this period does make it possible for all girls who are not en- gayed in sports to participate in healthful and beneficial group activities.

Nest Paris had to play Limington to decide which team should enter the tournament. We won 58-56. The Bobcats ranking twelfth sprang the big upset of the tournament by outshooting top-ranked Clinton 50-42. The following night Nest Paris continued its deadly shooting attack by dropping Besse 46-56, to win a berth for the finals to be heldthefollowlng afternoon, After the starting whistle of the finals against Uls- casset Academy, Uest Paris showed its superior shooting and pass- ing against a game Wiscasset Club, winning 57-51, therebyclaiming the Western Maine Class S trophy. We were pleased to have our Captain, Don Doughty, receivethe Messina Trophy for his outstanding play and sportmanship. On Friday evening, April 7, 1950, over one hundred people attended a banquet in honor of the basketball team. After enjoy- ing a fine dinner, and speeches by local and nearby schoolmen the team was presented with jackets from the townspeople. Coach Reid was presented a trophy by the toastmaster, Glenn Emery, for his success with the basketball and baseball teams during the lest three years, and Stanley Doughty received a plaque for his good record of sportsmanship and scholarship during his four years at Nest Paris High School. The banquet, the beautiful jackets, and the trophies, were but additional testimonials of the loyal cooperation of our local sports fans, without which no team could so wholeheartedly and successfully maintain its record. It is difficult to express in words our appreciation for all the honors and courtesies our town has bestowed upon us. Those of us who are leaving can but Wthrow the torchu to our underclassmen with the hope that they, too,w1ll continue to make a good record for themselves, their school, and their town. Although our ball diamond was washed out by spring floods, forcing us to clay all our games away, we have a very successful record of eight wins and just one league game loss to date. with Leon Hadley, Jr. and Stan Doughty doing the pitching we have had little trouble from opposing batsmen. Don Doughty han- dles both pitchers very eff1clent1y,and.keeps the team alive with his baseball chatter. Gill Heikkinen at third, Joe Perham at short, Raymond Polvinen at second and either Stan Doughty or Bud Hedley at first represent a fine fielding infield. Eob Young, Charlie Martin, and Jim Young patrol the outfield. Dave Elling- wood, Frank Slattery, Dennis Doughty and Chuck Haines fill in nicely whenever needed. - James Young '53 Name Perham, J.
