Our one desire in compiling this edition of the Green and White is that it may serve as a book of remembrance, bringing to its readers a smile and tender thoughts of the pleasant days spent in Gorham Normal School. Mayhap it will help these memories to grow ever stronger and the friend­ ships dearer, as the years roll by. Through its pages we pledge our loyalty to our Alma Mater. There are teachers who arouse in the souls of their pupils high ideals and an honest desire to work for their attainment. When in after years, the pupils who were thus inspired analyze the influences which have shaped their lives, they say, "It. was a teacher who made me what I am. All rever­ ence to her." To such a teacher is this book dedicated. A generous natural endowment, vigorous youth, high courage, and the stir of aspiration in the soul are a group of gifts from heaven which make their possessor rich indeed. Only as these gifts are invested in the service of others will they bring their possessor the ever abiding assurance: "Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things." WALTER EARLE RUSSELL

PERMANENT MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE. Alumni- Dorothy Lemond, Mary Robie Faculty- Gertrude Stone, Mary Hastings The Young Women's Christian Association aims to create among the students of the school an atmosphere that will foster the spirit of the gospel. In the weekly prayer meetings, the aim is not only to become more intimately acquainted with the life and teachings of Christ, but to provide a normal, healthy outlet for expression of the religious side of the individual. Who has not been benefited in some way by the Y. W. C. A.? Who has not felt its influence in the cultivation of friendship based upon loyalty to high ideals for indi­ viduals and for the school ? The Association has been interested in the suffering children of Europe and has contributed to the Hoover Fund for their relief. The problem of Americanization, too, has been a source of interest. Although there is no opportunity to work directly, the Association has aided the Italian Mission in Portland and Foreign Missions from time to time. Through the Heart and Hand Society it has contributed to the welfare of some of our needy children. The social side has not been neglected. Very enjoyable entertainments have been given during the year by the organization. "Everyone welcome and a good time for all" has been the keynote of the social activities. The midyear Y. W. C. A. sale and enter· tainment was a success both socially and financially. It placed in the treasury over a hundred dollars. The program for the entertainment was as follows:

Gorham Normal School vs. Sanford High at Sanford, January 7, 1921. In one of the most exciting games of the season the G. N. S. boys trimmed Sanford High on the Sanford floor, by the close score of 20 to 15. Sanford started the scoring and succeeded in netting fine goals and one foul the first half. The Normal boys were slow in getting started, one goal by Carstensen, two by Bush and one by Packard being their total for the first half. The score at the end of the first half was 11 lo 8, favor Sanford. In the second half Gorham came back strong. Score was soon tied and by the best of passing and _shooting, the Normal boys were soon in the lead. Sanford scored one bsaket as the final whistle blew, leaving Gorham ahead by five points. The excellent defensive work of Carstensen and Davenport destroyed the success of Sanford's passing, while the good work of Bush and F ossetl on the offensive was due largely to the help of Brown and Packard in keeping them supplied with the ball.
