These changes do not include all of the original plans first considered by the board. Sever- al features had to be given up when it proved difficult to get the necessary amount of adver- tising. We are offering, how- ever, several group pictures which represent some of the more important school activi- ties, a new cover design, a bor- der design, and an ivory colored paper which we trust is a fitting change from the conventional white paper. We have en- deavored to make our advertis- ing section more attractive and more effective by the use of a border design with verses on each page. Next year we hope to enlarge several departments Four Shaw, Marjorie Arbuckle and include many more draw- ings. Many improvements have been made in the high school buildings this year. The large doubl-e seats in the main room have been replaced by smaller, movable seats, so that the room may now b-e used for school socials and en- tertainments. The introduction of a Commercial course necessitated using the physics laboratory for both typewriting room and laboratory. Desks were built for the typewriting classes, and new shelves were put up to accommodate the labora- tory apparatus. While We appreciate the changes wlhich have been made with the new courses now being offered and an en- rollment larger than ever before, new classrooms and many new seats are still needed. A visit to our classes when in session will convince you of this fact. At the beginning of this year the stu- dent body was informed that there W-ere several outstanding accounts against the school for athletic equipment and yearbook expenses. Since that time an effort has been made by different or- We Qyersi ec ganizations to make payments on these accounts as fast as possible. To date, however, the school has been unable to balance these accounts after taking care of all current expenses, At our senior play last November a very good sum was realized. This amount thas been partially used to cover senior expenses during the year and the remainder will be used for class ex- penses in connection with graduation. Reports from the athletic fund show that during the winter basketball not only provided revenue enough for bas- ketball expenses but also provided a small fund to cover cross country ex- penses. With the proceeds from our Indoor Circus, Tag Day, and school socials, we have been able to make payments on equipment bought last year, pay our school dues to the county league, pro- vide expenses for representatives sent to other schools, and purchase part of the equipment needed by the baseball and track squads. If all students and fans would con- tribute a small amount toward baseball expenses when attending games, even more could be applied on the accounts of last year. This has not been done thus far, for after having had two home games the manager reports that the fans have contributed in all less than five dollars, in spite of the fact that a large group has been in attendance at each game. On second thought, will that amount buy baseballs, bats, and other equipment, or even pay transportation expenses when the team plays the re- turn games? It seems that we, as students, do not contribute our share. Have we not failed to appreciate the fact that we have been asked to contribute very little during the past year, and also that we have not been assessed regular athletic fees? Should we not think it over and do our small part toward getting the school completely out of debt when a mere col- lection is taken at a baseball game? Our attention has been called to these facts: an average elementary school graduate earns 364,000 during his life- timeg a high school graduate earns 588,- 000g and a college graduate earns more that S160,000. If we divide S24,000, the value of a high school education to the average boy, by the number of days in our four-year high school course, we Hnd that each day spent in high school is worth about S33 to a student. To go a step further, we flnd that a college education means an average of about S100 for every day during a four year college course. Are not these facts enough to keep us in school as long as possible? But there is more to be said. Education will pay us in fame as well as in fortune. It will help us not only to make a better living but also to live a better life. Let us, therefore, dispel any idea of leaving school until lt ,becomes necessary. Let us take advantage of every opportunity in order that we may broaden our vision, and become ac- quainted with all that is best and noblest in life. The school wishes to acknowledge with thanks the attractive new diction- ary presented recently by the Parent- Teachens Association. With over a hundred students using a dictionary more or less regularly each dmv the three old copies hive been inadequate but with this new -edition placed on the library table in the main room our ref- erence work has been made much more convenient.

Mrs. Fred Morris' baby girl of two years was standing at the window and looking with interest at these tiny streams, trying to trace them as they fell and ,ran to the bottom of the pane. It was dark outside and dismal. The little girl soon turn-ed away and faced her mother who sat in a large morris chair beside a table, on which were a. few books and a brightly lighted electric lamp. The baby had caught cold and she cough- ed often. As she turned, Mrs. Morris said, Come away from the window now, Beth dear, so you Won't catch more cold. It's very chilly outside. The child obediently came to her mother's side and, decidedly bewitching with her golden curls, large blue eyes, and chubby face, said, I want some 'pupper ' Cmeaning supperl. All right, darling. You .shall have some. Come to the kitchen with me. They went to the kitchen, where Mrs. Morris prepared a simple supperg They ate she put Beth to bed. No- togetherg then ticing that the child was feverish, she be- came worried. She returned to the kitchen and washed the few dishes have left them said, I might they had used. She could for Emma to do, but she as Well do them. I have nothing else to do. was Mr. and Mrs. Morris' 'Ihe cottage summer home in the country. It was very beautiful yet a simple house. It contained many valuable things, Emma, their one maid was visiting her sister for the even- ing and Mr. Morris was in town on busi- ness, expecting to return early next morn- ing. It was very quiet except for the frequent coughing of the baby and Mrs. Morris, standing at the white sink washing the dishes had time for many disturbing thoughts to go through her mind. Ten She thought how terrible it would be if her husband were hurt or even killed while returning next morning 0She shuddered at the thought and quickly dismissed it from her mindb. Then she thought, What should I do if a robber should come and try to take our valuable things: the paintings or the jewelry. She finished washing the dishes, took off 'her apron, and hung it on the closet. She passed into the sitting-room and, taking up a book prepared to- read. The baby's coughing disturbed her often and she could not become interested in her story. She picked 'up avmagazine, looked at it, and put it back in its place. She again took up her book, ia mystery play, and at last succeeded in becoming interested in the story. The time passed quickly and, looking at the clock, she found it to be nearly midnight. She let her book slip in- to her lap and li.stening, she heard the baby cough very severely. Beth had been asleep, but now, Mrs. Morris could detect a differ- ence in the sound of herf, breathing. Alarmed, she hurried to thegbedroom. Rushing to the bedside, she leaned over the child, who was breathing heavily and at times gasping for breath. The frightened mother recognized the symptoms. She has the croup. What shall I do? There's not a doctor within a mile and the telephone is out of order. I can't take Beth out to-night. If Emma were here-, but she isn't. I shall have to lcave Beth and go for some one. She had become very agitated and now, having decided to go alone, .she rushed to the hall. Snatching a slicker, rain hat, and rubbers from the rack, she put them on hurriedly. She pulled open the heavy door and rushed out into the night. The wind blew in her face and it was very dark. As she stepped to the walk, her path was blocked by a masked man who drew a revolver. Mrs. Morris stopped wlth a gasp. The man said, Quiet.HBut wait, where is the safe? Mrs. Morris screamed, My baby is dying. In 5765 ggfversi Ge , , U I am going for a doctor. The man's attitude changed. He dropped his revolver and said, Where is the child? Frightened she bid him into the house and to the bedside of the baby, who was now nearly exhausted with coughing. Her hair was pushed back from her forehead and small white beads of perspiration were on her forehead. The man said, Croup. Bring water, vinegar, sugar, a cup, and a spoon. She hurried to th-e kitchen and brought the things to him. i He mixed them together and poured the liquid down the infant's'thi'oat.

I GRACE KNOWLES '33 The Two Wishes One bright sunny June day, two boys were resting after they had raced down to the big oak tree and back. Their names were John and William. Say, John, suddenly exclaimed William, do you know what today is? John thought a moment, 'l'hat's right too. Today is Wishing Day. You think of something you want real badly, then you turn around three times and say, 'Oh Fairy Queen, please grant my wish, and it will come true.' Isn't that right? Correct, said William, let's wish and see if it will come true. What are you go- ing to 'wish John? I aim going to wish that I had wings and could fly all over the world in a day and see everything. What are you going to wish? , 'Tm not going to wish anything like that, although I wish I could. I am going to wish that my sick mother would get well, and be strong and healthy like she used to be. Accordingly each boy made his wish, and turned around three times saying, Oh Fairy Queen, make my wish come true. Then they turned around and faced each other. William looked and saw a pair of wings rapidly growing on John's back. It seemed to William as though they would never stop growing. Oh, William look. true. See how large and .strong my wings are, and I'm moving too. I'll tell all about Go home and ,see if Good-bye, and John My wish is coming it when I get back. your wish came true. flew away. - William felt very lonely as he walked toward home that morning. He doubted very much if his wish would come true be'- cause his mother had been in ill health for some time. Doctors had said the only thing that would help her get well would be a vacation in the country. William's father had died when William was very small. Being the oldest of a family of five, but still only a youth, William felt it his duty to support the family to the best of his ability. As he drew nearer home, he noticed a good deal of excitement going on inside the house. I wonder what has happened, thought William, as he drew nearer. One of his younger sisters ran to meet him. A stranger is going to .stay to supper, and there is hardly a thing to eat, she said Eleven Wjegaversi ei excitedly. We will manage somehow, said William with an assurance he did not feel. As he entered the house the stranger rose to greet him. He was a middle-aged man with clear blue eyes, hair tinged with gray, and a grayish moustache. I hope you will not think I am intrud- ing, said the stranger, but I have lost my 'and thought perhaps I might find way, lodging here. My name is Baker. You are welcome to what we have here, although it is not much and very poor, said William graciously. As they sat down to a very humble sup- per of bacon and greasy fried potatoes everything suddenly changed. The pota- toes became delicious mashed ones, the bacon changed to roast goose, the poorly clad children became dressed in silk and satin, and Williiarn's mother rose from the couch where she had been lying and walk- ed over to the table. William turned to speak to the stranger, and found that he had vanished. In his chair, however, was a large piece of paper. William picked it up, and this is what he read: In return for the kindness which you would have shown me, had I remained, I leave you this little reward. Go into the country tomorrow, and after you pass the home of Mr. Lane, you will see a cottage, that sets away from the road, with a hedge around it and covered with roses. The key is in the lock, and the house is yours. Do as you want to with it. At this moment John rushed into the room. I've had the most wonderful time. I'm glad I made that wish instead of any other. Come out into the yard and I will tell you all about it. I think mine will be as interesting as yours, when you hear it, said William as they walked out of the house.

CARL FERNALD '33 In addition to the change from a four to a six year high school this year a new course of study has been offered by the commercial department. Classes in typewriting, bookkeeping, shorthand and comm-ercial arithmetic have been open to students in the two upper classes. This department was organized to meet the needs of .students who wish to enter the field of business upon com- pleting their high school course as well as those who will want to continue their commercial education after leav- ing high sohool. The course offers a working knowledge of business proce- dure such as will be useful in business dealings in everyday life, and at the same time it is specialized enough to be Fourteen of use to those who wish to enter ofiice work. With this in mind, accuracy, neatness, thoroughness and alertness in mental and written work are stressed in all classes. The course has proved to be a popular one and with advanced classes to be offered next year, the fa- cilities of the department are apt to be inadequate. The Indoor Fair held in Union Hall April 9, proved to be a very successful enterprise. Attractive booths, decorated in brightly colored paper, streamers, and balloons transferred the hall into the appearance of a real midway. Gypsy girls told fortunes, a novelty orchestra g?l'V8T'Si ef 51 ,i - P Sophomore and Junior Classes furnished entertainment, and several vaudeville acts were staged. There were opportunities to play golf, pool, bridge, whist and other games. A bowl- ing alley and a hit the nigger stand gave the men a chance to show their skill. A marble tournament was con- ducted for the boys with a baseball glove awarded the winner. The feature which seemed to stand out when the program had ended was the combina- tion wrestling and boxing contests and many attended. Games and con- staged by some of our athletes. Band and orchestra music together with the various refreshment booths had a tend- ency to provide the proper atmosphere. The managers and committee in charge under the general supervision of Mr. Abbott were: General Manager, George Ritchie, Assistants, Forest Wadleigh and Patrick Sweeney: Advertising Man- ager, Delma -Clarkeg Manager of Box- ing, Jclhn Birminghamg Manager of Wrestling, Ardane Whittierg In charge of Booths, Thomas Birmingham and Bertha Nealleyg Manager of Bowling Alley, Malcolm Foley, In charge of Pool Table, Edwin Hopkins, Committee in charge of Bridge and Whist, Catherine Dorr, Elizabeth Shaw and Dorothy Laneg Refreshment Committee, Grace E.

Some of the visi- tors this year have been the Rev. Mr. Barron, Mrs. Ralph Wharff, Mrs. Dr. Smith, Mrs. Edwin Hall, Miss Eleanor Lane, Mrs. Colson, Mrs. Price, Mrs. W. Wadi-eigh, Mr. Carleton Young and Supt. Nickerson. Mr. Nickerson, Mr. Young and Mr. Barron have been speakers at special assemblies. Out- side speakers include Mr. V. B.

Holmes of tfhe Department of English at Northeastern University. The drama, Stwmpy was presented in the Town Hall, Novem-ber 24. It met with great success, largely due to the efforts of Miss Stairs, who coached the cast very thoroughly. A dance followed the drama with music furnished by Harold Lloyd and His. Harmaniacs. The cast was as follows: Peter West, poor but honest, Thomas Birmingham, Sally We.st, Isn't she the Fifteen 1. ?f 0 0 Jbe Qaversr ec sweetest thing , Elizabeth Shaw, John Flint, Owner of the hardest heart and - fattest pocketbook in town, Paul Croc- kett, Fanny Flint, his wife, Velma Woodman, Harry Flint, her son, Robert Crockettg Katherine Flint, John F1int's nifty niece, from the big city, Delma Clarke, Stumpy Smith, Peter's pal and the toughest guy in the Susquehanna Valley, John Birmingham, Fatty McCul- lough, the town constable with lots of law but little order, Malcolmm Foleyg Emmaline, Caroline, Margoline, three Brown sisters who'live in a red house on Green Street, Maxine Edmonds, Gail McDermott, Bertha ' Nealley.

The Baccalaureate Ex- ercises will be held at the Methodist Episcopal Church on Sunday evening, May 31. The Rev. Mr. Barron will be the speaker. Graduation exercises are to be held on Thursday even'ng, June 4, at Union Hall. The exercises will be followed by abrief reception and a dance. A well known 7-piece orchestra has been engaged. The class colors this year are green and gold with the rose as the class Bower. These combinations will be used in decorating for the commencement ex- ercises.

Junior Class Notes Early in October the members of the class of 1932 held a meeting at which time the officers for the year were elected. At this lirst meeting other matters relative to the class program for the y-ear were discussed and at a later meeting acted upon. While it was impossible to hold regu- lar meetings on account of there being no room available when all members of the class were free to attend, special sessions have been called when neces- sary. The members have, during the year, taken activefparts in all school activi- ties. Some of those who have in par- ticular contributed to the success of the Seventeen 'The J Nersi 1 B 1 athletic teams are the following: Cap- tain Dawson Williamson, Adrian Wil- liamson, and Ardane Whitti'er of the championship ,cross country teamg Cap- tain Catherine Dorr of the champion- ship girl's basketball teamg and Cap- tain Whittier and the Williamson brothers, members of the boy's basket- ball team. Two members, Maxine Edmonds and Gail McDermott, took part in the play presented last November. Others help- ed to make our indoor circus a success. At present about half of our class is ac- tively engaged in either baseball or track activities all of which goes to show how versatile our class has been this year. ALUMNI NGTES The Board is this year putting into use a new plan which provides that every other class from 1911 on is accounted for. It is hoped that all even classes from 1910 on may be referred to next year. 1929 Edith Bolan-attends the University of Maine, Orono. Louise Thompson-living in California.

EXCHA GES There have been Very few exchanges made with other schools in recent years and for that reason we 'have actually no comments to mz-.lie in this issue.

Twenty-one E lb jgfversi e fe S ATHLETICS Cross Country The cross country team had a. very successful season last Fall. After win' ning every meet on the regular schedule the team was sent to the University of Maine to compete in the State inter- scholastic Meet. We are very proud of the excellent showing our team made at that meet as three of the boys, Adrian Williamson, Captain Dawson William- son and Ardane Whittier were among the first six to finish. Considering thc fact that there were thirteen sclhools Twenty-two rcp1-:sented by apprcizimately a hund- red runners we feel that we can justly be proud of the performance our team gave. Adrian Williamson won an in- dividual award for having placed sec- ond at the state meet. During the regular sea-son in which three triangle meets and two dual meets were included the team's record was as follows: At Stockton Springs, W. H. S, 27, Stockton 46, Monroe, 475 at Winterport, W. H. S. 25, Stockton 46, Monroe, 643 at Monroe, W. H. S. 30, Stockton 47, Mon- roe 50: at Winterport W. H. S. 6, Frank- fort, 15g at Frankfort, W. H. S. 10, Frankfort 26, CThe last two wins were, incidently, by perfect scoresb A banquet was given on November 7, at the high school auditorium in honor of the team and Coaclh Livingston. Par- ents and friends were invited and many attended the banquet. 'After the see-.son had becn reviewed by Prin. Abbott, thc various members of the team were call- ed on to make a few remarks most of which were of a humorous nature. Due credit was given Coach Livingston who predicted another successful season in 1931. After a social program was car- ried out Captain Dawson Williamson re- ceived the league trophy award and the following members of the team received the-ir letters:-Captain D. W'1liamson, A. VVilliamson, A. Whittier, F. Jarvis, E. Stillman and R. Jarvis. Girls' Basketball The VV. H. S. girls' basketball team has this year completed the most .suc- crlgsful :crscn in recent years, having Wo the chcmpicnshin of the Waldo ed for first practice and the majority continued practice throughout theosea- s n. After our first two games with Crosby High of B-elfast we showed a' de- County League. Eighteen girls report- cided improvement, winning five of the l. , - V - .... -,,,. - ---4 Twventy-three 1. 'nge Qfversi ec fix league games following. The first game with Searcport proved to be one of the most interesting games of the season, VVnterport finally won by a score of 27 to 26, which was characteris- tic of the other games with Searelport which followed. As Winterport and Searsport were tied for the champion- ship of the Southern Division of the League at the conclusion of the regular schedule, it was decided that a two game play-off would decide the winner. The First game resulted in a win for W. H. S. by a score of 29 to 21 and the sec- ond was won by Searsport 17 to 11. The final count being 40 to 38 with Winter- port declared the winner. On account of the heavy schedule of 16 games, of which 11 were won by Win- Twenty-four terport, nine girls were used more or less regularly. As a result nine girls re- ceived letters. this year. They were as follows:-Captain Dorr, Manager Neal- ley, Delma Clarke, Dorothy Lane, Laura Green, Cornelia Shaw, Rita Whitting- ton, Grace Knowles and Marjorie Ar- buckle. Much credit is due Mr. Abbott for his effective coaching throughout the season. With D. Clarke and B. Neal- ley graduating this year their guarding will be greatly missed but with Cfather- ine Dorr again acting as Captain and five other letter girls from the Fresh- man and Sophomore classes again on the squad, Winterport is apt to have one of the strongest of the girls' teams in this part of the State next year. Record of games is as follows: 1. 7 6 be Q: ers: ep X J .V ' . a W. . 0.

We offer as proof of this the win over Monroe late this season by a score of 42 to 29, as compared with the one-sided victories won by Monroe the last two years. Again, the success We -had in holding the powerful Scars- port team, winners of the county league, speaks well for a team which was rather inexperienced when the season was begun. The record of all games is as follows: 'W. 0. Hermon H. S. at Winterport 33 10 Monroe H. S. at Winterport 24 27 Searlsport H.

It' was declared by many at the tournament to 'be the best game of them all. We feel that the success of the team this year is due largely to the effort and interest given by Mr. Abbott and we hope that he will be with the team next year. Letters were awarded to the fol- lowing players at a special assembly be- fore the sohool:-JCaptain Ardane Whit- tier, 'Manager George Ritchie, Ien Shankel, Thomas Birmingham, Ray- mond Wellman, Dawson Williamson, Ar- drian Williamson, Malcolm Foley and John Birmingham. Of this number live letter men will graduate and the school will greatly miss Ritchie, Shankel, Well- man and the Birmingham brothers. However, it is to be hoped that some of and allstars this year will gradually be the underclassmen playing as midgets able to fill their places. 1 Twenty-six if IQ giversi The baseball team has been very suc- cessful to date winning four out of five league games, and at this writing chances are bright for another league championship in this sport, although Stockton Springs has recently tied us for the lead in the league standing and promises to be very dangerous when the teams play off, as they probably will have to do after the regular sea- s:n is over. The standing at the pres- ent trne is as follows: W. L. P. Winterport High 4 1 800 Stockton Springs High 4 1 800 Hampden Academy 2 3 400 Searsport High 0 5 000 ee vi A sb Scores W. 0.

Track A 'Dhe Waldo County Track Association hold its annual track and field meet at Mnnroe, TIIGS-llily, May 19. The schools ccmpeting were Frankfort High, Sears- port Hgh, Stockton Springs High, Mon- roe High and Winterport High.. The meet was won by Winterport with a score ofi 56 1-2, Stockton Springs placed second with 43 1-6, Searsport third with 26 16, Monroe fourth with 9 while Frankfort failed to score. The thigh point scorers and indiv'dual cup winriers were Bertha Nealley of Vtinterport for the girls, and George Frame nf 'Searsport for the boys. Henry Hathaway of 'Winterport made an ex- ceptional record in the 220 yard dash which will probably stand for many years to come. While probably aided somewhat by a strong 'wind the record was officially allowed toxstand. There were four records. .broken by W'nterport, three by Searsport and two by Stockton Springs athletes. The following W. S. tracksters won points for the.gre'en. and white: Girls' Captain Nealley C1313 Boys' Captain A. Williamson C853 Catherine Dorr 1733 H. Hathaway 6595 D. Williamson C533 D.
