According to the dictionary, “Success is the favorable result, issue, consequ- ence; a prosperous ending to an attempt or undertaking of something. To one person, success may mean the pleasing of another person. Then there is a public success, such as being elected President of the United States; or a notorious success, as being a leader of a so-called gang. Success may mean to a captain of a steamship or to a pilot of a plane or any other craft, getting safely from port to port and accomplishing his mission. To movie stars, success would mean the way they presented themselves to the public, in their acting ability and in their appearance. In a different direction, what woidd success mean to a teacher? I think perhaps to a teacher success would mean really getting across to the pupil an understanding of the problems that might confront him through the school year, and ideas to help in solving his future problems. Perhaps it would be a success to build up someone with low mentality, so that he could do more things for himself and get them right. On the other hand, let’s take the side of the pupil. Success would mean the ability to study and learn and to get good ranks. Naturally, if a child got a rank of 100 two or three times, he would boast, because that would be his successful attempt to better his grade from the 50 or 60 marks he had pre- viously been getting. To a basketball team, success would mean not only winning a game but the way in which it was won, or perhaps even lost. Success might mean what the players put into the game. If they did better than they had done at other times— really fought all the way and showed good sportsmanship—they woidd have achieved a measure of success. To any individual, success means the favorable result and achieving an end which answers the purpose intended. Christine Berry, ’59 INDUSTRIAL ARTS COURSE Last year the shop was cut down in size to make a new classroom. When it was converted, a storage space was made underneath the front steps entering the school with a direct door between it and the shop. A new overhead garage door was also installed. The shop has a new foundry and a new jig-saw. Next year they are planning to get a new oxy-acetylene torch. There are 23 boys taking Ibis course. The present graduating class started the course when it was put in 4 years ago. The only Seniors who have completed the entire course are Clinton Cushman and Phillip Davis. John Chase, who graduated from Woodstock in 1956, is now at G.S.T.C. training to be an Industrial Arts teacher and Clinton Cushman has been accepted for this fall. Mr. Keniston, the instructor, is a graduate of Gorham. The following is a list of a few of the things which the boys have been mak- ing this year: model house, gun cabinet, a reproduction of an antique, cedar chest, metal-hammers, book-ends, landing nets, end tables, clamps, book-case, cold chisels, stools, chairs, coffee tables, telegraph sending and receiving sets, electric motors, hot dog roaster, turned bowls, metal bench plate stand, tire bead breaker and automobile engine work. This course offers four types of training: Woodworking, Metal Working, Automotive Work and Electricity. Even though it was cut down in size it still is one of the best shops in all the small schools around. 6
