Lewis, who is filling the vacancy made by the resignation of Albert XV. Boston: XValdo R. Flinn, who succeeds Ernest B. Griftin as teacher of sciences and mathematics. and coach of athletics: Elizabeth M. XYhittier, successor of Dorothy Rounds as teacher of French and Geometry. Another new teacher was added to the fac- ultv at the beginning of the second semester- Milton A. Philbrook, who resigned his posi- tion as a teacher in Rockland High School to take up the teaching of mathematics and Eng- lish in our school. PICTURE PRESENTED TO SCHOOL Mrs. Edward Pickard, who is well known and loved in this city, presented to the Assem- bly. at the close of school last year, a picture entit'ed The Horse Fair, from a painting by Rosa Bonheur, in memory of Burleigh Blan- chard, to whom we have fondly dedicated this number of our BLUE AND VVIIITE. At this presentation Mrs. Rickard gave a brief. but never - to - be - forgotten speech in which she quoted Henry Drummond. This speech touched each one in the Assembly and brought more closely to our hearts the realiza- tion that we had truly lost a loyal and faithful schoolmate. The picture, at the present time, hangs in the front of the Assembly Hall just above the piano, where all may see it, and in so doing, remember an ever true friend. CO-VER DESIGN It was the wish of last year's Editorial Board of the BLUE AND VVHITE that we should use the same cover design again this year as a symbol for our school. It was unanimously accepted by this Edi- torial Board and we hope that next year's Board will consider it in this light. Other schools of our size have their own symbol and it has met with general approval. Thus it seems only fitting that Westbrook High have a symbol of its own. THE NEED OF A LARGER ASSEMBLY HALL ' XYestbrook High has long felt the need of a larger Assembly Hall than it has at the pres- ent time. The roof of the present building could be raised and a large Assembly Hall built on the third floor. To be sure, it would cost a great deal at first, but in five years or so it would pay for itself. It would save the High School a large amount of money if this could be done, because in so doing the school plays and school dances could be given in thc same building, so that all the money taken in would be clear profit except for incidental ex- penses. VVe hope that the Alumni will consider this, and we trust that the next issue of the BLUE AND WHITE will announce that the work has been started.

MY VISIT T0 THE NATIONAL PARKS One day last spring, I was very much sur- prised and pleased to receive a letter from my Aunt Nancy. This is what it said: My dear Peggy, XVould you like to spend your summer va- cation making a tour with me through some of the National Parks in the United States? I wish to get local color for a book which I am going to write. Should I care to go with her? No need of asking that question. fairy godmother had wand over my future. I haven't told you I felt that a new-found been waving a magic yet, but Aunt Nancy writes books, some of the best books that I have ever read, and other people must think they are good also, by the way they are bought -but to go on with the letter: XYe shall have to leave within a month after you receive this, as I wish to be at the Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, when the season opens. My, what a hustle and bustle to replenish my wardrobe, but all I needed was sport clothes. as we did not intend to take in much of the social life. How excited I was on that morning when we started from New York. The journey westward was most interesting, but I won't tell you about it, as nothing very eventful hap- pened. XYe arrived at the Rocky Mountain National Park on Tuesday, and made arrangements to stay there for a few days. This park is noted for its beautiful mountain scenery. There is the home of the Rocky Mountain sheep or Bighorn. These sheep are somewhat larger than the domestic sheep, and they are very powerful and agile. One of the greatest mountains there was I.ong's Peak. Its head towered above every- thing elseg its structure was like an enormous column of solid rock buttressed up on four sides with long rock ledges. At the foot of this mountain is Chasm Lake, whose surface is frozen every month in the year except one. The gorges there were carpeted with many bright-hued flowers, which added greatly to the romantic effect of the park. The painted mountains, also, were a great attraction. Their snow covered tops were rosy at sunrise and sunset, and during the day all shades of trans- lucent grays, mauves and blues. From this place of wonders we went to Mesa Verde National Park, which is also in Colo- rado. Mesa Verde contains many ruins of the pre-- historic cliff dwellers. The First place which we visited was the ruin known as Cliff Palace. As we came to the edge of a canyon we saw, under an overhanging cliff, a small village, which at the Hrst sight looked like a city. The place must have been a community house. It contained over two hundred family dwelling rooms and twenty sacred kivas. Another ini- portant ruin which we visited was the Spruce Tree House. This house was two hundred sixteen feet long and eighty-nine feet wide. It had one hundred sacred rooms and eight sacred kivas. It is estimated that three hun- dred fifty people had lived there. Our guid: showed us places where the house had been built three stories high. Mesa Verde is not only noted for its ruins, I I Westbrook High School but for its very beautiful scenery. The large canyons, with cliff dwellings placed at advan- tageous points, formed a most beautiful pic- ture. It is from this beautiful scenery that the canyon derives its name, Green Mesa. The next park which we visited was Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona. Wliile here we stopped at the Fl Trovar I-Iotel, from which the best view of the canyon may be obtained. On the day of our arrival. the most strenu- ous task that we performed was to sit on the porch of the hotel and gaze at the beautiful scenery. This park is said to be one of the most beautiful in the world. The Colorado River Hows through it for a distance of one hun- dred three miles. The coloring here is be- yond description. As the sun rises and goes through its daily routine. the shadows and colorings change continually. Vllltat one sees at one moment will be entirely different an hour from then. There is a very interesting Indian legend about the Canyon. The Indians believed the Grand Canyon to be the road to I-Ieaven. A great chief mourned the death of his wife. To him came the God Ta-vwoats and offered to prove that his wife was in a happier land by taking him there to look upon her in her hap- piness. Ta-vwoats then made a trail through the protecting mountains and led the chief to the happy land. Thus was created the canvon gorge of the Colorado. On their return. lest the unworthy should find this happv land, Ta- vwoats rolled through the trail a wild, surging river. Thus was created the Colorado River. There are two trails that lead into the can- yon. XVe took the Bright Angle Creek Trail. which is excellently built and is kept in fine condition. The descent was made on mules. and such fun as we had. Aunt Nancy's mule stopped short when in the canyon one dav. and nearly threw the dear lady off his back. It was nearly two hours before we could per- suade the animal to move, but the guide as- sured us that the mules did not act like that very often, which I think is a good thing for I9 the guides, and for the visitors, also. But I haven't told you the very worst of all yet. VVe had to wear hob-nailed boots for tramping purposes. These boots were hired at the hotel. My, weren't they heavy! Imagine hob-nailed boots on Aunt Nancy's dainty little feet, of course it didn't matter about me, because I can wear anything, but Aunty was a good sport and made the best of them. Wfe stayed two weeks at this canyon and took in as many of the wonders as was pos- sible in that short time. We visited the Har- vasu Canyon and Indian Reservation. It seemed to me that we could have spent the summer in that beautiful spot and not have stayed any too long. but we were visiting the National Parks in a few months, not in a few years, so we had to journey on. Our next stop was at Yosemite Valley, which is known as the Land of Enchantment. This National Park is merely a crack, in the earth, seven miles long, and it covers eleven thousand square miles. The valley was once a tortuous river canyon. Later the canyon became the bed of a great glacier. This ex- plains the character of the valley. XVhile we were there we saw many beauti- ful mountain peaks. Some of these were Cathedral Rocks, Fl Capitan, Sentinel Dome, Half Dome and Clouds' Rest. falls were the height to nine Among the many beautiful Yosemite, which are equal in Niagara Falls placed one above the other. lVe also saw the Vernal Falls, and the much cele- brated Bridal Veil. Yosemite Valley has the greatest water spectacle in the world. From California we went to Crater Lake. National Park, Oregon. Crater Lake is a body of water six miles in diameter occupying the crater of an extinct volcano, known as Mt. Marzama. The Lake is cauldron-like in shape. This lake is six miles across and two thousand feet deep, perched among the peaks. Perpen- dicular sides of slaggy lava rise over a thou- sand feet of indigo blue water. Perhaps you have heard this lake called The Lake of Mystery, or The Sea of Silence. These names are very well applied, for the 20 lake is silent and mysterious. It has a won- derful color scheme. The mountain peaks are of grays and silvers. VVith the green of the woods, these colors reflect in the vivid blue of the lake. VVe stopped at a stone hotel which was sit- uated on the rim of the lake. The accommo- dations there were very good. It is said, Of all the fire mountains which. like beacons, once blazed along the Pacific Coast. Mt. Ranier is the noblestf' This is the place which we next visited. This mountain is noted for the glaciers The glaciers fill twenty-eight valleys and cover forty-eight square miles. The most interest-- ing and largest glacier which we visited was Nisqually Glacier. It averages sixteen inches in speed a day. The Nisqually River fiows from a cave in the end of Nisqually Glacier's snout. The river is milky white when it first appears, because of the rock sediment in it. From Mt. Ranier we went to another Fairy- land, Glacier National Park. This park, in northwestern Montana. covers many miles of mountain territory. Its name is derived from sixty Glaciers. It was unlike any place to which I had ever been. Imagine yourself ap- proaching two chains of vast tumbled moun- tains which bear living glaciers in every hol- low, and which break thousands of feet to lower masses. Here there are many lakes of great beauty, and roaring rivers of icy water. Scattered through the park there are nine Mountain Chalet-Villages, which are very unique. XVe stopped at the Many Glacier Hotel, which is in the very heart of the park, on l.ake Mcllermott. It is of Swiss architec- ture. and its timbered walls are stained with many wood carvings. A VVe took many trips on the Auto Stages, which go deep into the Rockies. On our first trip we went to the Two Medicine country, where Two Medicine Lake and River are, also Rising XVolf Mountain and Mt. Rockwell. On another trip we went thirty miles, on the stage to St. Mary's Lake, which is the most beautiful lake in North America, then we took the St. 8 ' The Blue and White Mary's steamer and sailed up the lake ten miles to the Going-to-the-Sun region. Here are the park's finest peaks, Going-to-the-Sun Mountain, Goat Mountain, Red Eagle Moun- tain and Little Chief Mountain. Here are also the Sexton Glacier, Grinnell Lake, and Morn- ing Eagle Falls. After spending a few days there, we went to Yellowstone Park. Yellowstone National Park had always been a land of great mystery to me, and it was with great pleasure that I looked forward to my visit there. I was not disappointed, for its great geysers, hot springs. Waterfalls and fos- sil forests were of great interest. There are five active gevser basins here: the Norris. the Lower, the Upper, the Heart I ake and the Shoshone. Some of the geysers. like Old Faithful, spout at quite regular in- tervals, and burst upward with immense pow- er: others shoot streams at angles, or bubble or foam when in action. The hot-spring terraces are rather awe-in- spiring when seen for the first time. In cer- tain lights, the steaming pools appear vividly colored: the deeper hot pools are often intense- ly green. The incrustations are beautifully crystallized: clumps of grass and flowers which have been submerged in the charged waters become exquisitely plated as if frosted silver. The fossil forests are also of great interest. The largest fossils are found on the banks of the Lamar River. There is also a small for- est near Tower Falls, and just outside the park is another petrified forest which covers more than 35,000 acres. XVe visited these forests on horseback. From this place of wonders we took the train to Kansas City. St. Louis, and home. The nearer East we drew, the more I felt that my vsiit to the National Parks of the Unite-il States had been like a child's visit to Fairy- land, and was only a dream. And when I left my aunt at her home in Massachusetts, I felt more than ever that my travels were an unreality. GER.XLl'llNlE H. VVEIHHER, '23. Westbrook High School Efveryflziag ffm!

I.eft when a boy to face the world alone, by his shrewdness and business ability he had bettered his fortunes until he was now the owner of a large ranch and great tracts of forest land in Oregon. His outstanding characteristic was his old- fashioned aversion to the modern electrical and automatic devices. Because large, time- saving machines were necessary on the ranch, he bought them without a murmur. And he suffered in silence the Victrola which his wife had persuaded him to buy, but when it came to telephones and automobiles, he put his foot down. No! I will not be bothered by an in- fernal telephonef' he said, and as for auto- mobiles, well, hosses carried my father and grandfather before me, and they'll carry me or I'll walk! But, Dad, argued his daughter Marjorie, who had just returned from an Eastern col- lege, you're dreadfully behind the times, You really ought to have an automobile. You do so much business in Northford, and that's twenty miles from here. Horses are sc slow and poky. Well, let me have one. she con- tinued, as her father shook his head, just a little one for my own use. I learned how to run one at school. But Daring refused, and for the time Mar- jorie was forced to give it up. She had in- herited his stubborn disposition, and her de- sire for a car was increased a hundred-fold by his opposition. During the next few weeks, the Auto NVar, as Marjorie called it, was waged every time she and her father were together-in the morn- ing and in the evening, at meals and while they were galloping over the countryside on their horses, for, despite their love for arguing and debating, they were great comrades, and spent much time together. Mrs. Daring, a merry, vigorous woman, good-naturedly sided with her daughter on the auto question, and together they pleaded, ar- The Blue and White gued and scolded, all to no avail-Mr. Daring was adamant. Finally, in despair, Marjorie took matters into her own hands. Calling her mother into her room one day, she laid before her a plan which she had thought of. Her mother agreed, and Marjorie wrote a letter, which she at once mailed. Then followed several weeks of impatient waiting. At last a return letter came which sent Marjorie with a whoop to find her mother. Then, donning her riding clothes, she set out at once for Northford with john, one of her father's men. It was late in the day when they returned, Marjorie proudly driving a shining black road- ster, and john following with the two horses. far behind. Mrs. Daring rushed out, and together they admired and exclaimed over the little car. Mr. Daring, fortunately, was away, but, as Mar- jorie expressed it, wait till he gets home! lVhen he did arrive, he stopped short anfl gazed in amazement. An automobile before his house! An automobile! He knew at once that it was no chance visitor. He strode into the house and confronted his smiling daugh- ter, his face dark with anger. Marjorie, he said, sternly, I did not think you would deliberately disobey me. Now, you hold your horses, Dan Daring. intervened his wife, if that child wants an automobile, she shall have it, and there's no logical reason why she can't. Even if you do intend to have ideas as old as Napoleon, the rest of your family don't. I told Marjorie she'd never get a car if she waited for your consent. Mr. Daring looked at them helplessly, his anger fading before his wife's unprecedented attack. VVell, he surrendered, if you women folks set your minds on having a thing, I guess there's nothing to do but to give it to you. But, he continued, turning to Mar- jorie, don't expect me to have anything to do with the contraption, because I won't. If you go ranting over these hills and kill your- self, don't blame me! Westbrook High School And so for a time theiquestion was settled and peace reigned in the Daring household. For Marjorie, the days were full of happi- ness. She spent most of her time in her car, driving over the narrow, winding roads and thru the green, sunlit valleys. Sometimes she was accompanied by her mother, but her father, true to his word, could not be persuaded to set his foot into that car. August was ushered in by a severe drought, and anxious days followed. The grazing lands became dry and brown and the crops were withered and burned by the glaring sun. Rivers and springs were low and water for the cattle became scarce. Mr. Daring was silent an-l preoccupied, a perpetual frown between his eyes. ' One afternoon of one of the hottest days. while her mother was resting, Marjorie took out her car to go for a cooling spin. Driving nearly a mile along the Northford road, she finally turned off on a little-used wood road, leading to a favorite haunt, where a merry brooklet rippled, and the air was cool and re- freshing. Altho bordered on either side by large trees, the road was hot, suffocatingly so. The air was thick and heavy, and-did she---' was that smoke which she smelled? She sniffed the air again in quick alarm, then, speeding up, she hurried ahead until she came to a small clearing. Stopping her car, she looked around her. ln the VVest she could see the lofty, snow- capped peaks of the distant cascade mountains. But in the East a bluish haze of smoke rose into the air. Marjorie's heart leaped and then fell down, down in fright and despair. The Timber was on fire and her father was in Northford and all the ranchmen were far on the other side of the ranch, erecting fences! The Timber was a large tract of forest land belonging to her father and was his great- est pride. In her mfnd's eye Marjorie saw the giant Douglas firs, acres and acres, of them. of untold value, and recalled his plans to turn them into dollars in the spring. She knew that she must summon help quickly. 'But how? To go to Northford was out of the question, it would take far too long. The nearest tele- phone was at the Bartlett ranch across the 23 Range, a long, steep, densely wooded moun- tain. To go around the Range by the wagon road would take nearly as long as to go to Northford. She thought quickly-there was no other way, she must go over the Range Road. Leaping into her car, she turned quick- ly, and at top speed rushed back the way she had come, straight past her own home and on until she reached the base of the Range. Turn- ing her car into the Range Road, a road made years ago across the mountain before the bet- ter road had been built around the Range, she started to climb. The road, a hard climb for a person on foot, was now almost impossible for a horse and for an automobile-but Mar- jorie grimly shut her lips and looked straight ahead. Over small trees and shrubs she went. sending terror to the hearts of timid rabbits and squirrels by the crashing and snapping. Her engine began to churn and labor, and she shifted into second and then into low. It was with an exclamation of despair and fear that she saw a large tree had fallen across the road ahead of her. Climbing from the car, she tugged at it, tearing and scratching her hands, but finally succeeding in rolling it to one side. Then she went on, inch by inch, crawling up- ward like a small insect. Would the valiant little car make it? Yes, Marjorie held her breath as the last rise was made and she came upon the Hat top. There she paused, 'faint and trembling, trying to nerve herself for the rest of the journey, for the Range Road was not the worst, ahead was the Pass. Behind her Marjorie could see the smoke pouring upward, black and threatening, so she hastily started again and followed the nearly obliterated road, which grew narrower and narrower and terminated in the Pass, a narrow shelf of rock winding around a great cliff. Marjorie measured its width with her eye and decided that it would just about accommodate her car, but a few inches beyond and-Mar- jorie shuddered as she looked down thru space, far, far below. Her heart beat like a trip- hammer as she started, slowly and cautiously. The first few feet she negotiated safely and found herself half way across. But, turning the steering wheel a bit too quickly, she 24 stopped short in horror, one front wheel partly over the edge of the cliff. A false move, even the shifting of her body, and she would be sent hurling thru space to her death below on the crags and rocks. For a moment she hung there, suspended half way between Heaven and earth, then. her brain nearly paralyzed by fear, she mechanically reversed her engine and slowly, slowly backed back to safety. How she ever completed that perilous trip she never could remember, but at'last she found herself incoherently pouring out her story to Mrs. Bartlett, who telephoned to Northford, her message sending a great number of men to fight forest fire. the greatest enemy of all farm- ers and ranchers. After resting an hour to quiet her shaken nerves. Marjorie started back home, but not by the Range Road. Reaching home, she found the place deserted. Hastily flinging a shovel and pick into the car, she started for the Timber. Night had lowered. and altho several miles away she could see the long tongues of flame shooting into the air, and the dull red haze coloring the skv. Driving her car into the forest, she alighted and, guided by the shouts of the men, who were digging a wide trench to stop the devastating Hames, she rushed to the spot to lend her aid. She found her mother already there, hurriedly carrying water from a small spring to the blackened and choking. Marjorie joined her and together they rushed back and forth with water through the roaring flames. The fire was eating its way nearer, despite the most desperate efforts of the men. The smoke became so dense that it was diffi- cult to see, and Marjorie, returning from the spring, a pail of water in each hand, became confused and wandered deeper into the flames, instead of away from them. She soon real- ized her mistake, but was unable to find her way back. Dipping the light sweater that she wore into the pail of water, she tied it about her head to keep from suffocating, and then struggled on. She stumbled and fell, and attempting to rise, gave a low moan of pain as her right leg doubled under her. Beating the ground in a frenzy with her clenched hands, The Blue and White she tried to crawl, but it was no use, she could not. She must lie there and suffer death by the flames, after escaping from death far gentler than the one which was before her. Glancing up into the sky, she gazed horrified for she was directly in the path of a giant tree which was about to fall, its branches a glow- ing skeleton of red. It cracked and snapped and slowly began to settle as Marjorie closed her eyes in a faint-and a tall straight figure dashed out of the smoke towards her. XN'hen she again opened her eyes she was amazed to find herself in a wheel-chair on the sunny porch of her home. Her head and hands were bound in bandages and pained dully. VVhile she was trying to comprehend all this, her father came from the house, accompanied by a young man. Seeing Marjorie's wide blue eyes, her father rushed to her, his face full of joy. Marjorie, he exclaimed, you are better. Do you know me. dear? Of course I know you, indignantly an- swered his daughter, why shouldn't I know my own father? But, tell me, how long have T been here? Is the fire out? NVho's this young man with you P He'p! laughingly responded her father, overjoyed to see her better, one at a time. This young man, he said, growing grave, is Neal Deane, who pulled you from under that tree nearer dead than alive. He has been ap- pointed forester for this part of the State and had just arrived in Northford when we learned of the fire. He is going to stay with us for awhile. Marjorie looked up into two steady blue eyes set in a brown, tanned face, as Deane came forward and took her hand. I have a lot to thank you for, she said in a low voice, your arrival was very timely. Don't let your gratitude keep you awake nights, Miss Daring, he returned, jokingly. But tell me the rest, demanded Marjorie, turning to her father. VVell, . he answered, the rain came, as it nearly always comes to end a severe drought, heavily, and lots of it.

But undoubtedly the timber would have been destroyed had it not been for your braveness in sending the alarm. We brought you home, he continued, unconscious, and for two weeks you have lain in a stupor. We were afraid your reason had been affected by all that you had been through.

Your car was destroyed in the fire, he answered, but, never mind, as he saw her disappointed look, I've ordered another one for you and one for myself, and, yes, had a telephone installed, too. Mrs. Bartlett told me all about your ride over the Range and had anything happened to you I would have always blamed myself. My idea was foolish and old-fashioned and nearly cost you your life.

THE FORTUNATE MEETING The street was poorly lighted, and the shad- ows made grotesque shapes along the way. The houses were old and dilapidated, and everywhere in the streets was rubbish and uncleanliness. One small house at the ex- treme end of the street was in the worst con- dition, but something about it made an ob- server notice that in spite of its ruined state it was clean: the windows even had curtains and one or two plants. XValking along under the dim lights with a weary step was a young girl of perhaps twenty summers. She was slender and gracefully built. Upon closer observation one would see that her hair was raven black and her eyes- tired eyes--were of a dark color which brought out more clearly the whiteness of the face. VVhen she approached the last house she The Blue and VVhite turned in at the path and, drawing from her pocket a key, unlocked the door. There were three rooms in the interior, small-but tidy. The furniture was cheap and scarce, the Hoors bare, and walls without pic- tures. After entering, she began to prepare supper. Angelina Regini had now lived in America ten years. Seven years ago her father had died, her mother. following a month later. The severe winters had been too much for these people born in Sunny Italy. Angelina had been bewildered after her loss, but, rallying herself, she went to work making the things she had been taught to: baskets, paper flowers and lace work. These she sold in the large stores for a small amount barely sufficient to pay for food and rent. Each evening she re- turned as we have seen her, after delivering the work she had spent the day in making. VVhile at the store to-day she had been spoken to by a kind lady when the manager had refused in his office to accept her work. The lady had smiled and bought all herself, and had given a piece of her mind to the man-- ager, who only laughed and, taking her by the arm, went out with her. Angelina couldn't forget the pretty, doll-like face of the lady, with its wealth of golden hair and the deep blue eyes that had snapped so angrily in her behalf. She was the kind of American she liked, but there were not many. The otherslooked down upon her. A Week went by, and Angelina went through her daily routine. One day while she was busily working to finish a particular piece, a footstep sounded on the walk and a gentle rap was heard. VVondering who it might be, she opened the door and beheld the kind lady. At last I have found the house: you can't imagine how exciting a time I have had-what a beautiful basket you have in your hand! That is worth a great deal. Now, to get to the point. I must have you make some ar- ticles for me for a party I am planning. Angelina was so surprised she couldn't speak at first, but, regaining her self-compos- ure, asked her caller in. Drawing forth a chair, she invited the lady to sit down. Westbrook High School But, Signora, I am afraid I shall not be able to do this work. You will be able to do it. I know you can. I am a fairly good judge of people, and, be- sides, my mind is made up. When I decide on a thing, I usually get it. Then, with one of her sunny smiles the kind lady said, I know you will decide to do this, so in the morning my car will be sent for you. I will not detain you longer nowf' VVith these words she placed in Angelina's hand a card and went out. VVho could resist such a charm- ing personality? On the card was the name Mrs, Clarina Bellville. A Angelina arrived at the Bellville Mansion on the following morning, after living in ec- stacy through the entire ride, for it was her first in an automobile. The mansion's beauty dazzled her eyes, the many servants frightened her, until reassurance returned with the lady of the house. She was given her work to do, which was found to be simple and interesting. That evening a storm prevented her from re- turning home. After supper, while walking through the servants' quarters, turning a sharp corner, she came up against another person. Demurely raising her eyes, they came in contact with those of a fellow countryman. The two looked at each other a second, then, with an apology. Angelina went on her way. But Signor Guido Giacomo watched her out of sight. A serv- ant surely she is not: then who is she ? Fignor Guido walked into the library, Where were congregated other guests. Singling out Mrs. Bellville, he succeeded in entangling her from the group in which she was the central figure, as usual. Everyone came when Signor Guido called. He was a general favorite with all. . Signora Bellville, at your leisure may I ask who is the Signorina in the servants, quarters? Guido Giacomo was tall, with square shoul- ders, his hair was black, and his skin olive. There was something about him that demanded an answer to his inquiries. Signor Guido, do you mean my newly found treasure? Yes, of course you do. Now, 27 I shall have to command you to remain away from the servants' quarters for fear of your stealing this treasure. Signor Guido related the incident in brief and demanded that a meeting should be brought about. NVhich promise he received. The next morning when Angelina was about to enter the waiting automobile, she noticed that it was different, as was also the chauffeur. The chauffeur jumped out and made a very gallant bow and said, Signorina, I have, with your permission been commanded to return you to your home, the other car is in need of repair. The ride home was one long remembered by Angelina. Signor Guido talked of Italy, their mutual interest. VVhen she got home, An- gelina felt as if she had known him all her life. After this the old street saw Guido and his car as no stranger and the Bellville Mansion saw Angelina frequently. She soon became an indispensable help to them. And in less than a year she moved from the old house into the Mansion into a spacious room over- looking a beautiful lake and the tops of trees. And Signor Guido, instead of returning to Italy that year, remained in America, as it was impossible for him to think of the ocean being between Angelina and him. LENORA INIARSHALL, '23. SAVED! At a trading post in the northern part of Canada in a little log cabin which had been his home for many years, an old man lay dying. Bill Hardy, the dying man, spoke to his daughter Irene, who was sitting by his bed, and told her to come closer, and then, in a faint whisper, he said: Irene, my dear girl, I have only a short time in which to tell you a long story. Listen carefully. VVhile you were in Montreal at school, your old father has been trying to End the fortune he has always sought. At last we are richl But it is too late for me to enjoy it, so you must go back to civilization and live as a girl of your edu- cation should. But, first, there is one thinff 6 28 The Blue and White Th Oakhurst Pasteurized Dairy Milk To Westbrook People y Pure Milk and Cream Everything Clean Daily Delivery We invite inspection of our Plant 364 Forest Avenue, Portland that you must do. As soon as possible you must take the dog team and go to the Post and record my claim in your name. I was taken ill just as I got everything ready to start. You must keep a good watch out for Huck Macey and .led Redden, as they have found out the place where my mine is. It is more than rich enough to keep you in comfort the rest of your life. But you must be very care- ful. as these two men are very' dangerous. You will start at dawn tomorrow and go by the river route. and you should get there before dark, then return in another day. I will be with you in spirit on the journey and perhaps help protect you. Make ready to start now, dear. Ry dawn the next day Irene was all ready to start. and with her father's great dogs, was soon spinning over the snow. She traveled fast, as it was bitter cold, and it was a long journey to the Post. She came to a stop on the top of a small hill and looked about her over the vast whiteness. Then she saw some- thing way oh' in the distance, and could just make out two dog teams, with their occupants in each. They were going at a good rate, and as she watched she saw that they would cross her trail about noon. She suspected that they were her fatherls old enemies. After think- ing a minute. she decided to try the trail in the woods. This she did, and after traveling about three miles, came to a clearing, where she could see a cabin. This was the home of Silent Joe, the Indian guide, who was a friend of her father. He was pleased to see her after her two years' absence at school. Quickly she told him her trouble, and his old face was very stern as he told her to wait and he would help her. Soon they were on the trail again, and Silent joe told her of the hardships that had befallen her father these last two winters, and that he had had much trouble with the two men now chasing her. At last they turned back to the river, and Silent joe showed her where the trail crossed the river and would save her two hours of hard traveling. He also said that her enemies knew nothing of this trail. So, leaving her with directions as to where and how to go, he went back to his cabin to attend to her team. She kept on and soon knew that she was getting nearer her destination and would soon know whether or not the fortune was hers. As she reached the recorderis office, she could hardly see, as it was growing dark. She had everything fixed in her name and the claims safely in her hands when the door flew open and the two men came striding in, and when they saw Irene they both exclaimed.

DEBATING CLUB Soon after the close of the football season last fall, the Debating Club activities were started. Although a little slow in starting, things soon picked up. Several committees were appointed. and the work of the vear was begun. It was decided to meet every Wlednes- day afternoon at two o'clock for the regular debates. The ofihcers for the year were: President-Philip Bachelder. Vice President-VVilliam Banks. Secretary and Treasurer-Stanley Libby. Business Manager-.losiah Pugh. Program Committee-Libby, Pugh, Plum- mer. Farly in the year XVilliam Banks left school and Clyde Hulit was elected Vice President to fill the vacancy. One of the first events of the year, outside of the regular debates, was a reception to the new members given in the rooms of the domestic science department. There was a very excellent program arranged for that even- ing. including a fine talk on the value of de- bating by Principal Lewis and readings by Miss Foster and Mr. Torrey. Refreshments were served and the rest of the evening was spent in games. The most joyous event of the year, however, was the mock trial, given in place of a regular debate. The charge was made against Ima Nutt lClyde Hulitj for illegal possession of refreshments in class. The defending attor- ney was Charles XVoodman and the prosecut- ing attorney. Philip Bachelder. Thejudge was Richard Brooks, the court crier Robert Ban- croft, the court stenographer Doris French, and the court recorder Evelyn Bragdon. The witnesses for the prosecution were Boob Mc- Swiney lMaurice Goodwinl and Sparkplug Google tLinton Raymondl. Those for.- the defense were Mrs. Nutt tlVladece Gilmanl and Dr. Lagerson tHarold Lagersonl. The wit- nesses for the State showed the terrific eating abilities of said Mr. Nutt and proved that on many occasions he had been guilty of illegal Z' 32 possession of candy, etc. The defense ad- mitted all of these terrible charges, but tried to prove that insanity was the cause. Then ensued a hitter battle ,the two attorneys nearly coming to blows. The battle was so terrific, in fact. that the jury, after a fight among them- selves, had much difficulty in agreeing as to the verdict. It was finally decided to send Mr. Nutt to the XVhite House for a n1onth's observation, at the end of which time he was The Blue and White to be examined by a specialist from Augusta. The club has proved very successful this year. VVe have sent for pins, which consist of a gavel, the sign of debating, with the letter 'WV' inscribed on it. It is hoped that the debating work has been most beneficial to those who have spent the time in preparing for same, and that results will show in later life.

The first assembly of importance was in September, when Paul Fraser, the new secre- tary of the lVestbrook Community Club, spoke to us. Mr. Fraser, who is very popular with the student body, was very well received. He spoke on the activities of the club for the coming year. Through his influence, a field hockey team was started, andatoboggan chute was built which was also enjoyed by the stu- dents. NVe had several rousing athletic meetings. The cheer leaders were Miss Gilman, Miss lVheet, Mr. Nadeau and Miss Martin. At these meetings Mr. Fraser spoke very encour- agingly about our athletic teams. The as-- sembly also heard from Principal Lewis, Coach Flynn and Captain Ball. Another assembly of interest was when the new banner was presented to the school by the class of 1922. This was presented by Miss Bancroft. Much to our disappointment this banner was not ready for some of our most im- portant games, but it was taken to the South Portland game. The banner is very worthy of the school, being Blue, with the letters in white. It makes a very fine showing. The assembly of greatest interest and fresh- est in the minds of the pupils, was the address given by Captain Donald B. McMillan in November. The pupils were never more en- thused than when they learned that through the influence of Mr. Luther Dana, Capt. Mc- Millan was to speak to us. He spoke on his recent trip to the Arctic region, and was one of the most interesting speakers we had ever heard. One thing which caused much laughter was his short phrases in Eskimo, which sounded very peculiar to us. Another speaker the VV. H. S. pupils had the pleasure of hearing was Miss Grace I.. Scott, the national secretary of the XV. C. T. U. This ta'k was given in November, and she came here through the invitation of Mrs. lvalter V. Knight, president of the local NN. C. T. U. Miss Scott has spoken in many high schools of our country and she told of her experience over there during the VV'orld lVar. She was one of many women who gave up their profession, being a singer, to serve our country. She spoke of the influence that these XV. C. T. U. women had on the morals of the boys over there, and we owe much thanks to those who invited her here for her heart to heart talk. In February we spent a very enjoyable hour in listening to Mr. Philip Marsh, who repre- sents the Curtis Publishing Company. Mr. Marsh presented a splendid proposition to our school to help us financially by obtaining sub- scriptions for the Ladies' Home Journal. For each subscription the school was to receive 50 cents commission. Booklets were distrib- uted on The Art of Salesmanshipf' and Mr. Marsh illustrated the right and wrong way to make a sale. To the boy securing the most subscriptions a hne Conklin pencil was to be given, and to the girls a pencil of different style. XYe were very successful in this cam- paign and the results were as follows: Seniors 863 juniors 5lg Sophomores 585 Freshmen Gil. Howard Chadsey obtained the greatest num- ber of subscriptions and received a gold-filled pencil. Thomas Cairns, who sold the next gzeatest number, received a similar pencil. A special pencil for the girl obtaining the most subscribers was won by Mabel Grant. All those who sold three or more subscriptions re- ceived a silver pencil. lfVe have been fortunate in having these in- teresting assemblies and hope that we shall have others. lll.XRION TQICLLYI, '24, Sf'6'7'f'flI7'y of Assembly. 34 The Blue and VVhite s I 5 ,l S J U N IO R C LASS President, PHILIP BAM-mI,IncR.

M.xRo.xR12T STANFORD, '24, 36 The Blue and white j. RICHARD O'NEIL GEORGE CASELLA ' EIL 8: CASELL JEWELERS 38 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Of course we were green and fresh. That was taken for granted. Some of,us showed it the first thing by getting to school at eight o'clock, when we weren't supposed to report until ten. This was in the important and eventful year of l92l. The first day we kept busy watching our superiors go to class, or waiting for definite orders from our new teachers. liven though we were green, we soon fitted into our new work. The first important event in our school life was-but do I dare say it-- Freshman Reception. XVe were told not to wear anything valuable to the entertainment and to be at the Armory by six o'clock Sharp! In spite of these commands, some of the more venturesome failed to present themselves until nearly eight o'elock. Nevertheless, they did not miss anything, for they were treated as badly as the others had been. XVe were very politely ushered into a room and then made to represent green with no question mark after it. First our faces were covered with paint and powder and then large green bows were tied to us, so that everyone would know who we were-as if we were not known anyway. As we marched into the large room, where everyone was awaiting our appearance, some of the older boys had clubs ready to wel- come us. . The Blue and White At our first assembly meeting we were told to stand up. VVhen we did this, we listened to the familiar and lofty song, VVake, Fresh- man, Wake. After this was over, we began to feel a little more relieved, for we didn't seem to appear so curious or awkward. During the Christmas vacation several of us were invited to a party at one of the teach- ers' homes. VVe arrived at XVOodfords all right, but from there on we walked, about a distance of a mile or more. The cars went that way, but we had become tired of waiting and had started on foot. After a very pleas- ant time with our hostess, we departed in time to get the last car for VVestbrook. NVe were obliged to wait fifteen or twenty minutes in a cold blizzard which had arisen, but, think- ing that we must have missed the trolley, we started to walk. On the way back it seemefl three or four miles, instead of one, and we came about as near freezing as we could com-- fortably stand. After all our trouble, we man- aged to get the last car from XVoodfords. VVhen we left school, June 16th, we put Freshman days behind us forever. On the first day of the fall term, 1922, we missed the fun which We had expected, for when the Freshmen came in, we went home. The next day we saw our new friends for the first time. Oh! how fresh and awkward they looked! Could we have looked as bad as that?

That was taken for granted. Some of us showed it the first thing by getting to school at eight o'clock, when we weren't supposed to report until ten. This was in the important and eventful year of 1921. The first day we kept busy watching our superiors go to class, or waiting for definite orders from our new teachers. Even though we were green, we soon fitted into our new work. The first important event in our school life was-but do I dare say it-- Freshman Reception. YVe were told not to wear anything valuable to the entertainment and to be at the Armory by six o'clock Sharp! In spite of these commands, some of the more venturesome failed to present themselves until nearly eight o'clock. Nevertheless, they did not miss anything, for they were treated as badly as the others had been. XVe were very politely ushered into a room and then made to represent green with no question mark after it. First our faces were covered with paint and powder and then large green bows were tied to us, so that everyone would know who we were-as if we were not known anyway. As we marched into the large room, where everyone was awaiting our appearance, some of the older boys had clubs ready to wel- come us. Having been told not to remove any of our pretty decorations, and fearing the electric chair if we dared to disobey, we obediently kept our tell-tale adornments with us. A little before midnight we were permitted to go home. The Blue and White At our first assembly meeting we were told to stand up. NVhen we did this, we listened to the familiar and lofty song, XVake, Fresh- man, VVake. After this was over, We began to feel a little more relieved, for we didn't seem to appear so curious or awkward. During the Christmas vacation several of us were invited to a party at one of the teach- ers' homes. Vile arrived at XVoodfords all right, but from there on we walked, about a distance of a mile or more. The cars went that way, but we had become tired of waiting and had started on foot. After a very pleas- ant time with our hostess, we departed in time to get the last car for W'estbrook. NVe were obliged to wait fifteen or twenty minutes in a cold blizzard which had arisen, but, think- ing that we must have missed the trolley, we started to walk. On the way back it seemed three or four miles, instead of one, and we came about as near freezing as we could com-- fortably stand. After all our trouble, we man- aged to get the last car from Vtloodfords. XVhen we left school, June 16th, we Freshman days behind us forever. put On the hrst day of the fall term, 1922, we missed the fun which we had expected, for when the Freshmen came in, we went home. The next day we saw our new friends for the first time. Oh! how fresh and awkward they looked! Could we have looked as bad as that? I hope not, most assuredly. As Sophomores, nothing important has hap- pened, except the pleasant task of studying in order to keep the D's from appearing on our cards at the end of the quarter. Gmnvs Tmorfia, '25. THE W. H. S.

A FRESI-IMAN CLASS HISTORY September 18. 1922. School began for us Freshmen at 10 o'clock to-day. We were all assembled on the sidewalk in front of the High School when the upper classmen came out. We went in then and sat in the study hall about an hour, when Principal Lewis came in. He talked to us a while and told us to go to rooms H and 16 the next morning, where we would be given our schedule cards and as- signed to our home rooms. We then went home. ' The next day we came with the other classes and started in our lessons. Work went as smoothly as could be ex- pected, and we all like Mr. Lewis very much. One day soon after an assembly was called, when, to our dismay, we were made to stand up while the other classes sang CPD the old and never to be forgotten song, Wake, Freshman, XVake. On October 5, 1922, We were given a recep- tion at the Armory. VVe were told to be there at 6 o'clock. XVe obeyed, and' had to stand on the sidewalk for an hour or so. The Seniors took us upstairs. As we did not stay , 1 the boys, we do not know what happened 't em, but we can make a pretty good guess, 41 for when we next saw them their coats and caps were turned wrong side out and their shoes unlaced. The Seniors dressed us up with a large amount of paint and powder, also green strings and bibs. To add to our misery, there was a thunder shower. The girls screamed, and the boys laughed at them. Wfe nearly exhausted the patience of the Seniors before we were given our partners and marched up to the Reception Hall, where we had to shake hands with the faculty. We then fat the Seniors' requestj gave them an exhibition QPJ dance. Qnly a few of us knew how to dance, but it evidently pleased the people, as the applause was long and loud. After this we were allowed to Hx up and either stay to the dance or go home. A few days after this we had a class meet- ing to elect the officers. They are as follows: President, Charles Canning, Vice-President, Robert Bancroftg Secretary and Treasurer, Al- bert Foster. W'e have had several meetings since then, and at one we decided upon our School Pin. This ends the important facts in our Fresh- man Class History except that we all like High School better than we though we were going to Freshman Reception night.

I.ate one midsummer afternoon, Alice jack- son, the private secretary of A. Words- worth, President of the Automobile Supply Co., New York City, was walking down the main street of her home town, where she was spending her vacation. She had not gone far when she met Hazel Atherton, a friend, who was entering her senior year at high school that fall. XYhy, hello, Alice. what a stranger you are! I certainly am glad to see you. They say that you work for one of the largest supply com- panies in New York. Is it true? asked Hazel as she enthusiastically greeted her friend. Hello, Hazel, I was just thinking of you and wondering what you were doing. I would hardly say that it is the largest concern. but it is large enough. as I have the most of the thinking and part of the planning to do. That is just what I like, to feel that I am needed, answered Alice, showing that her work isn't distasteful to her. VVhat are you doing? Have you finished high school yet? No, I haven't finished yet. I graduate next june, if nothing happens. If I don't hurry up. I shall be too old to work before Ifinish school. just think, after I graduate I must go to Busi- ness College two or three years. Then I shall hunt for a position where I can work up, and perhaps some day I shall be a private secre- tary, too. But, Hazel, why waste two or three years in Business College? inquired Alice. VVaste two or three years? Why, what do you mean? Business College gives the finishing touches to a high school education. Everyone goes to Business College before she goes to work. You don't learn enough in high school to do actual office work, replied Hazel, surprised at her friend's statement. You are wrong there. A person does not need a Business College course to fit her for office , work. What made you think that? I-Iaven't you been to high school long enough to realize that it is unnecessary ? Alice asked, indignant at her friend's slur at the complete- n'ess of a high school education. But look at the girls who have graduated from high school and then gone to Business College. There's Mary Brown, I.ouise Good- win- Yes, and where are they now? XVhat kind of work are they doing? They are simply do- ing bookkeeping under a head bookkeeper. They are machines doing their work mechan- ically. .They have no chance to use their in- dividuality. Now, if they had gone to work directly after graduating from high school, the time spent in college would have secured higher positions and larger salaries for them, interrupted Alice, speaking in a forceful tone. Still, you cannot convince me that a Busi- ness College course is a waste of time. 'There would be no such colleges if they weren't some good, objected Hazel. Listen, Hazel, of course years ago high schools were not so completely equipped for teaching office work as they are now. Then it was necessary to go to a Business College to acquire sufficient knowledge to run an office. but now the high schools have the same, and in some cases, better equipment than the colleges. If you want to go further in Commercial work, go to a college of advanced work. Do not waste time by repeating what you have taken in high school. NVhile the girls were arguing, Professor Downs, an old friend of both girls, was slowly VVestbrook High School or economzkal tramportatzbn- 43 il - I.-.

XYhen he noticed that they were having a heated argument, he quickened his steps. I lello, girls. what are you disputing ahout? Is it politics ? asked the Professor, as he reached the girls. XYhy, hello, I'rofessor, returned Alice. I was just trying to convince llazel that it is a waste of tfme for her to go to Business College next year. XYhat are your views on the suh- ject P XYell, girls, I'm glad you weren't arguing over politics. hecause I should have given you a lecture on XYoman Suffrage. So you want my opinion on whether a Business College is necessary after graduating from high school, or not? XYelI, my private opinion is that it is not necessary. But, first, why do you favor Business College, Hazel? asked the Professor. NYhy, so that I can he a stenographer, an- swered llazel. Anil why do you say it is unnecessary. Alice P inquired the I'rofessor. I say it is unnecessary hecause I honestly think it is. In high school all the funda- mentals of hookkeepingaud stenographic work are learned. After four years' study, one should he ahle to apply one's knowledge in actual work. Instead of going to Business College, one should he doing real office work, 'lixperience is the hest teacherf as the old say- ing is, and it certainly is true. Rather than he spending time and money in Business Col- lege. I say, go to work and he gaining ex- perience, answered Alice. She was glad to use her influence in a plan which she knew would henefit Hazel. Now, why did you ask my views when you could express them so completely P asked the Professor, surprised to hear his own opinions on the suhject expressed so emphatically. Hazel, I guess she has you heat. I7on't you think now that it is unnecessary to go to Business College, spend money, and still not he acquiring experience F Yes, I helieve Alice is right, after all. She didn't go to Business College, and see what Il good position she has. I don't helieve I shall 44 try to go. I will get all I can out of school this year, then I will try my luck in the busi- ness world, replied Hazel. That's the right view, Hazel, said the Pro- fessor. Have confidence in yourself. Do your work to the best of your ability. You will never get a raise until you show that you are worth more than your present salary Remember the little things. It is the little things that count. Don't work mechanically. Be original. Show your personality in your work. 'Be sure you are right, then go ahead,' and I am sure your work will be successful. ESTHER L. SWAIN, '23. A VISIT T0 THE COMMERCIAL DEPART- MENT The School Committee, of a small city in the western part of Maine, desired to add a Commercial Course to the high school curricu- lum. So it decided to send one of its mem- bers, a Mrs. Brown, to our high school to in- spect the Commercial Department. I was appointed to meet her and show her our classrooms. The first thing I did was to explain the course to her, as follows: English and Penmanship, the most impor- tant subjects, are required all four years. In addition, the following are required during successive years: Freshman year, Commer- cial Arithmetic: Sophomore, Bookkeeping and Commerce and Industry, junior, Typewriting and either Shorthand or Advanced Bookkeep- ing, the Senior year there are no required sub- jects aside from the English and Penmanship, but all commercial students are strongly ad- vised to take Office Practice. In this course the student learns to operate various machines, such as the Dictaphone, Adding and Calculating Machines, Billing Ma- chine and Slide Rule. He also has actual prac- tice in systems of filing. Mrs. Brown was very anxious to see our department and equipment. NVe went down The Blue and White to the Bookkeeping room. She was more than delighted with the large, airy, well-lighted quarters. Oh! she exclaimed, a real oFFice. And it truly is, for everything is carried on in a very businesslike way. These are the filing cabinets and ma- chines, I explained. A pupil learns to op- erate them before he Finishes his course. This is a great help to one who will later work in an office, for he will surely meet one or more of these machines. ' VVhat is this? asked Mrs. Brown when she saw the large rule hung on the wall. That is the Slide Rule used for multiplying and dividing, I explained. Vile next visited the Commerce and Industry Class, which was in the midst of an interest- ing discussion on the process of manufacturing rubber. She noticed our hne setgf wall maps and cabinet of specimens, as well as our book- case filled with reference books and maga- zines. Then came the Typewriting Room. Here I could hardly make myself heard, as everyone was taking a speed test. four different makes of type- VVe have writers: the Royal, Underwood, I.. C. Smith and Remington, I told her when the machines had stopped. Bach student learns to operate all four, and different awards are offered for accuracy and speed, such as diplomas, medals, gold and silver pencils. The warning bell told us that it was three minutes before the close of the sixth period. As We had seen everything of importance and Mrs. Brown had an opportunity to meet the teachers of this department, who are always very cordial to visitors, she thanked me and said we had a very excellent commercial course and that she hoped that they would soon be able to introduce as fine a one in their own school.

H. S. had an Industrial Building? VVhy, where have you been? You didn't know that our Indus- trial Building was erected as long ago as 1913? You have never heard that it is one of the finest and best equipped school buildings of its kind in the State and that it has an un- usually fine corps of teachers? VVell! Here- we are. VVon't you step in and see for yourself the opportunities offered to the fellows? Now, this room was the Forge Shop, but you see it is quite empty just at present be- cause it is being changed to a Sheet Metal IVorking Shop. It was here that the boys learned how to use the various tools common in a blacksmith shop, how to forge a rough metal into a finished product such as chain links, brackets, bolts, etc., and how to weld and temper different metals. When the Sheet Metal working shop is com- pletely installed, the boys will be taught the use of the various Tinner's tools and how to perform all of the different problems in Metal VVorking. The room adjoining this is the Machine Shop. This contains nineteen machines, namely: one Norton Universal Grinder, one Whitcomb planer, one Brown and Sharpe Milling ma-- chine, two emery wheels, one draw cut saw. one shaper, two drill presses, one grindstone, one Henry lathe, four South Bend lathes, two American lathes, one Reed lathe, and one lathe manufactured by the boys of VV. H. S. machine shop. The boys are carefully instructed as to each machine's mechanism, their respective uses and method of caring for each. After com- pleting a four-year Industrial Course, which in- cludes either two or three years of machine shop practice, we can go into any machine shop and take up the work without difficulty. VVe will now go up to the second Floor, which contains the Manual Training and Pattern- making shops. On entering, you will first see the Manual Training room itself. The Man- ual Training course is taken by Freshmen only. You will notice that this shop is fully equipped with the best of cabinet tools. The benches were made by the students of the Manual Training and Machine Shops. The boys are taught how to use each tool, providing they have never previously learned in the grammar grades, and also how to make furniture, such as tables, chairs, cedar chests, etc. The adjoining room is the Pattern Shop. This shop is equipped with seven wood work- ing machines, namely: three Wood turning lathes, two of which were made by the boys of the Machine Shop, a band saw, a table saw. a jointer planer, and a surface planer. It is also fully equipped with cabinet tools. Here the boys are taught to make patterns in wood which give the form to similar objects to be cast of metal. This is but a brief outline of the Industrial Shop, but it can be readily seen that whoever takes the Industrial Course, which includes practice in all the shops above mentioned, be- comes a very proficient Workman in whatever vocation he may take up. Oh, here comes Mr. jones. He doesn't seem to have anything to do, and he can probably tell you of other things of interest about the Industrial Course. .

COWS TUBERCULIN TESTED Tel. 24-W R. D. 1, Westbrook, Me. ll C. H. BECKWITH INDUSTRIAL DEPARTMENT The screw-cutting engine lathe is one of the oldest and one of the most important of all machines. It is therefore natural that some knowledge of this machine should he given in the Industrial Courses in the high school, and this is begun in the Sophomore year. VVe are first taught the different parts of the machine and its usesg after this we are given a piece of stock six inches in length. This is centered hy scratching lines at angles to each other with the centering square, and where the lines intersect, a small hole is punched. The stock is then placed on the centers of the lathe, and revolved hy hand. If the center does not run true, hold a piece of chalk to the stock while revolving and it will mark the high spots: then take the stock and drive the center in the direction of the high spot. The center is drilled and countersunk and is now ready for machining. ' The first work given is the screw threads blank. This is six inches long and 27'f32 inches in diameter. The next is the screw threads. These are six inches long and thirteen-six- teenths inches in diameter. On one end a right hand thread, fourteen threads to an inch, is cut, and on the other a left hand thread, ten threads to an inch. In the center the work is knurled. I After the screw threads come the cones. These are six inches long and have five differ- ent diameters from seven-eighth inches to three- eighths inches. After these follow the paperweights. This gives the use of the chuck. The stock is centered in the chuck, squared and cut down to the required length and then machined to the desired length. The last work of the year is the jack screw. This is made with the use of the chuck and also gives practice in drilling and internal threading. The stock of the hase of the jack screw is cast iron as all the other articles, while the screw is steel. All work must be filed and polished. :FRANK L.

Drar Sir: In reply to yours of the sixteenth, request- ing that I submit to you a contribution for the BLUE AND WIIITE, I shall in a few words en- deavor to comply with your request. As I have only 'been out of high school one year, I cannot give you a summary of my achievements, although I hope some day to be able to do things which will reflect credit upon my Alma Mater. Therefore I will only make a few short remarks regarding my work since my graduation from IVestbrook High School. in the Class of 1922. During my Senior year at high school, I began to wonder what college would best suit my needs for a higher education, and after some consideration I chose Colby College. I have since made up my mind that my judg- ment was wisely put to use in selecting this college. But, after all, any school is what the individual makes it. In other words, one gets out of his school just what he puts in- to it. My intentions now are to take a four-year course at Colby College, and later to specialize in some foreign language, either French or Spanish. After my education has been com- pleted, I plan to enter upon a business careei. In closing, allow me to add that any honors or success that may come to me, either in col- lege or in later life, I shall always consider as due in a large sense to my training received at NVestbrook High School, and I shall always hold, deep in Iny heart, a love for the old school. The friendships, both with faculty and fellow students are lasting, and I shall always cherish them. My hope is that in the years to come VVestbrook High School may grow to be the leading school in Maine, and that great success may come to her graduates, under- graduates and faculty. Trusting that this answers, in a manner, your request, I remain sufficient Sincerely yours, K. VV. BR.xonoN, Class of 1922. ALUMNI Five years ago a child was I When first I entered Westbrook High. Our class was not so much in size But had the spirit that never dies. In everything that came along We ent d ' 'th ' ou 0 ere ll1Wl Joy ss ng, And thus our freshman year did close, While we to sturdy sophomores rose. The years went fast as those years do And soon our course at school was through. Now comes to us a parting dear, Of all our friends both far and near, And thus we left dear Westbrook High Our love for her shall never die. Perhaps no heroes you will find, Nor footsteps on the sand of time, Still in our hearts there seems to lie Undying love for Westbrook High. CH.-ts. W.

Flinn Qliiowdoin '22j as athletic di- rector, in place of Ernest H. Griffin CBates 'l3j. Although it is Mr. F1inn's first year at coaching, he has made a great success of VV. H. S. teams considering the material he has had. Not only has he been merely coach to the teams, but also a friend. In the short time Mr. Flinn has been with us, he has become very popular with the student body, the alum- ni and backers of the school. The school, as a whole, stood behind the teams. At every game a large percentage of the student body was on hand, and the well organized cheering section showed the public that the school had vocal as well as athletic power on the field. Madece Gilman as cheer leader and her assistants, Cora Martin, Har- riet Wheet and Theodore Nadeau, produced some fine cheering from the students. One of our biggest aids in athletics this year was the appearance of second or scrub teams. In every sport we hada fully equipped second team. The fellows who made up these second teams were given little credit, as is usually the case. not only in our own high school, but in other high schols and in col- leges. Through this department the assembly wishes to express its appreciation to those boys who made up the second teams, as well as those on the first. Every boy on these second teams stuck it out the entire season without complaining This only goes to show that there is a spirit in them and in the school which is worth while. In Football we were able to have as assist- ant Coach Paul Fraser CColby, 'l5j, former Coburn Classical Coach, who worked hard with the team. Many afternoons were spent in building up the machine-like team, and his work is not only remembered by the team, but also by the XV. H. S. Assembly. Another asset to our team this year was the work of Drs. Hall, Shibles and Ferren, who made it possible for XV. H. S. to appear on the field physically fit. The assembly deeply ap- preciates their work. FOOTBALL VVith Earl Ball. '23, as Captain, and a nu- cleus of veterans, namely: Kenneth Beede. '23, Royce Keefe, '23, Fred Higgins, '23, Vtfalter Pratt, '22, Floyd Burton, '24, lVilfred Roche- leau, '24, Ellis Lebeau, '25, and Brinton Mc- Clellan, '25, the team went through a fairly successful season. There were many candi- dates this year, and the enthusiasm kept up until the close of the season. The new uni- forms made a very good appearance on the field. For the first time in many years we had pleasant weather, going through the season without a cancellation of any game. This year Coach Flinn and Assistant Coach Fraser used the unbalanced line, wherein we had an advantage over the opponents, for they could never seem to solve it. The school is as proud 50 The Blue and VVhite . ..n i FOOTBA LL TEAM of its football team as of its other teams, and are fully satisfied with it and its coaches. South Portland won the annual games this year, being so much heavier than we, by 26 to 0 and 36 to Og yet next year we are looking forward to Captain-elect lfllis Lebeau, '25, with his vets to reverse both decisions. The Senior Class presented their classmates who were members of the football team with sweat- ers. Those receiving same are Capt. Earl Rall. Royce Keefe and Kenneth Reede. SOUTII PORTLAND GAME ,Before a large crowd at XVarren League Grounds South Portland High defeated XVest- brook High 26 to 0. South Portland had a much heavier team. In the first quarter XV. ll. S. held and played them to a standstill. But the second quarter XV. H. S. seemed to weaken by their heavy attack, and so it con- tinued through the rest of the game. But XX'estbrook High never fought any harder than they did against South Portland. Not a man gave up until the whistle blew. Another fea- ture was the cheering of XYestbrook High. This kept up until the end of the game, and never before did it seem so well organized and so loud. XVaterman Trefethen, McDonald and XValter Trefethen starred for South Portland. and while l.ebeau, Ball. Knigh tand Keefe put up a great defensive, and it was Burton's con- sistent punting, which was almost up to col- lege calibre, that kept the score lower in the last of the game. W. H. S. So.

XYestbrook High, get- ting the first touchdown, played on the offense most of the first half, while Deering played the defense. Deering could not penetrate our def fense in the first half, but walked through in the second half. The teams seemed exactly turned around. There were not more than two or three penalties in the whole game. It was, as most of the eleven said, the best game of the season. Manager lfrooks should be given much credit for the way he handled the financial and business matters of the team. 5. ll W. H, S.

There were a great many candidates this year, anfl most of them stayed out until the close of the season. The student body was enthusiastic, and much spirit was shown for the season's team. Indications point to a fast team next season, also. XYalter Heesley, '23, was Cap- tain-elect, but was forced to resign on account of sickness. Floyd lfurton, 2l.' was then elected, and has proven himself an able cap- 52 tain. The veterans who formed the nucleus for the team were Floyd Burton, ,21, Burton McClellan, '25, lidward Kinmond, '25, and lfugene Hehert, '21 The team has worked hard, and it deserves much praise. Manager Royce Keefe arranged an attractive schedule with three trips and many home games. lle deserves much credit for the carrying out of the schedule and the handling of the tinancial matters.

This year class teams will take the place of the varsity. on account of baseball. There is good avail- able track material among the undergraduates. and this will soon be brought out in the class games. Next year we hope to start track in full swing and to be represented by an out- door and an indoor team. KENNETH BEEDE, '23, Atlzlrtic Editor. BIARY SKILLINS, '23, Assistant Athletic Editor.

Ilmcnxs, '23l. A LEGEND OF SLEEPY HOLLOW The scholars living here in the city often wonder if we have any fun riding to school from Sleepy Hollow, as Pride's Corner is nick- named. Let me tell you we do have lots of fun. IVe have everything from hghts to story telling to VVestbrook High 'School break the monotony of seeing the same seen- ery every day. The latest event was on the morning of March Sth. The roads were drifted full of snow, and of course it was hard traveling. lYe were progressing finely when suddenly one side of the sled was elevated slightly above the other, due to a snow drift. The force of gravity was so strong on the lower side that we just naturally tipped over. XVe haven't quite decided whether it was gravity or Miss XYehher's weight which tipped us over. gknyway. she was sitting on the lower side at the time. 63 XYe fell out of the sled into the snow, blank- ets and all. Mr. Tetrault seemed to he col- lecting articles belonging to the rest of us as he fell out. As he left us he took Miss XVeb- her's hat, Mr. XVoodhury's cap, and a hlanket wrapped around his feet. l.ater, when l couldn't find my shorthand hook, which had heen in my lap, I found that he was sitting on it. No one was hurt, and as soon as the hoys helped our most efficient chauffeur right the sled, we continued on our merry way to school, arriving in time for the second period. ESTIIICR I..

The Proof of the Pudding ERHAPS one of the best reasons we can give of our ability to satisfy is the fact that many of our cus- tomers have been with us since we started in business.

Cobb, More than a Printer I I I A The Blue and White N completing this 1923 edition of THE BLUE AND WHITE it has not been our aim to present to you a faultless magazine, for wherever the human element enters in there are always bound to be mistakes, but to offer you our best efforts through this magazine.
