POLARIS ’89
KENTS HILL SCHOOL
KENTS HILL, MAINE 04349

207-685-4914

�r

Mr. Stephen
Gilpatrick
We, the 1989 graduating class of Kents Hill
School, dedicate this year’s Polaris, the school
yearbook, to Mr. Stephen Gilpatrick.
Mr. Gilpatrlck’s challenges to his students in the
classroom and to his football athletes on the field
instill a desire for success, the incentive to test
ourselves, and Irascible encouragement when we
slip. He shows us that following the road of con­
formity leads nowhere and that the path of sincere
individuality is treacherous. Mr. Gilpatrick has
taught us the importance of evaluating and judging
on our own. Our school community would not be
the same without him. For this and so much more,
we thank you.

DEDICATION

\\

\\

�n

Mrs. Audrey Luce
After twenty-five years of service to Kents Hill students and staff in her
role as school nurse Mrs. Audrey Luce is retiring. She will be missed. Her
wise and alternating heavy hand of reproof and tender words of solace or
understanding have helped so many students through the years. Be it the
long winters with their interminable colds, athletic injuries — either imag­
ined or real, or just words of encouragement to the down-in-the-doldrums
teenager. Mrs. Luce was there. Yes, she will be most remembered for her
ceaseless effort — never too tired to help out, whether it be tending to one
more flu-stricken student, another late-night return to campus, or a trip to
the doctor in town she helped us learn that in giving of oneself the individual
discovers the essence of life — our lives become meaningful as we help
others. We thank you and wish you the best.

he 1988 Varsity Men’s Soccer squad was one that
attained much deserved success both on and off the
field. Our fall started with the traditional pre-season
training week. We had some very solid returning players,
most notably our captains, Tim Lynch and Greg Abrams.
Both of these players were voted MAISAD All Stars. Other
returning players Included Erik Bolster, who made a suc­
cessful switch from mid-field to goal, Bob Brogan, Eric Plote,
and Matt Crane.
Our season started with a hlgh-lntenslty game versus
Bridgton, a traditional disappointment. With a great deal of
team building behind us, we went on to tie Bridgton, a first for
Kents Hill. As the season ended, Incidentally, that game came
to be Bridgton’s only no-wlnl Riding high and and over­
confident because of this tie, the squaawas handed two
straight losses. Both of these losses would be avenged, how­
ever, Other highlights of the season Included a win over St.
Doms, a team that ended up on top of their division. We were
able to slaughter CMVTI twice and managed three wins over
Hebron as well. Our problems this season were spelled G-O- Coach Horton. Coach McKinney. Greg Abrama (MVP), Erik Bolster (W
U-L-D. We spilt during the season and ultimately met them In Eric Plote (MIP)
the finals of the MAISAD tourney. The tournament was held
i
at Berwick and contained two great games. The first was our
second win over Hebron, in a tight 1-0 game filled with some
of the best soccer of the season. Our win advanced us to the
finals where we met Gould. The game did not go well, with
Gould quickly scoring two goals. We fought back In the sec­
ond half, but were able to produce only one goal. And so our
season ended, second place MAISAD and a respectable 9-5-1
record.
Compared to the season before, this team had Improved
1000%. We were a unit, with a super diamond-back setup
and some rocket feet up front. We saw magnificent goals from
Greg Abrams, Hasan Durham, and the Lee brothers. We had
solid mid-field passing from DJ. Pete, Eric and the rest of the
middies. We had Intense defense from Tim, Stef, Brian, and
Chris Meehan. If anyone asks who had the best fall, it had to
be Coaches McKinney and Horton. They got to take in every
beautiful pass, play, and goal. Congratulations guysl

1") reseason found us here at Kents Hill School
four days before the start of school for early
morning runs, two practices a day and a lot
of fun. Our theme of “Don’t Worry, Be Happy”
eased some of the sore muscles and added to our
craziness.
What a list of characters we had this year! Our
captains, Angela and Abby, provided excellent
leadership and were Impeccable role models.
Their play on the field Inspired all of us, coaches
and players. Angela earned the nickname "The
Wall” because of her awesome defensive abil­
ities. Abby livened up the field with her array of
tie-dyed shirts, bandanas and lightning speed.
This duo of "Prep” and "Dead-Head” — what a
combination!
We ended the season with a 3-5-3 record.
Coach Cheeseman and 1 were thrilled with your
effort, desire and willingness to play hard.
Thanks for a great season!

�J.V.A. Soccer
he Junior Varsity "A" soccer team had an outstanding
soccer season during the fall of 1988. The team tallied
a 6-2-2 record which broke down in the following
manner: Hebron Academy (1-1). Gould Academy (1-0-1), The
Hyde School (2-0). Berwick Academy (1-0-1), Carabassett
Valley Academy (1-1). The highlight of the season occurred
Parents’ Weekend with a definitive victory over Berwick.
The key to the team's success was the stalwart defense.
Dylan Daniels was the goal keeper. Steve Pease, Steve El­
liott, Rob Boisvert, Dominic Ingram, Chris Gresham, and
Brian Wilson shared the fullback positions. In front of them
in the midfield, Doug Owen, Tom Garvey, Derek Holmes,
Mike and Geoff Howe provided defensive support for the
fullbacks while adding to the offensive punch in the op­
ponents’ zone. The offense was spearheaded by Mark
Lundin, Aaron Smith, Jay lovino, and Lance Marble.

T“X ue to some good snowmaking weather, skiing on the hill
1 J commenced after students returned from Thanksgiving
break. The alpine team was committed to helping our fledg­
ling cross country team field a complete team this year so
practice in early season centered on the basics of cross coun­
try skating technique. By December, the team was also prac­
ticing regularly their alpine skiing skills.
The team early on concentrated on working on the sound
fundamentals of skiing. A lot of time went into practicing the
basics. This solid preparation paid off for the team with good
performances throughout the year which culminated at the
State Championships. The State Slalom Championship was
won by Kents Hill in Class B, and we finished a close third in
the Giant Slalom, making our team the best overall alpine
team in our class.
Individual honors were won by team co-captaln Erik Bol­
ster by finishing second overall in the season-long MAISAD
racing done this year. Abby Brown was seventh for the year
in MAISAD competition. Stefan Taroll did a great job as team
manager. The team coaches Mrs. Howe and Mr. Mitchell
worked hard for the team all year and both feel that next year
Kents Hill should have another championship team.

played to win in every contest. It was a season

game. This was very frustrating for every­

learned, perhaps more than a winning sea­

did create the environment in which the
best and worst of each personality surfaces.
Hopefully the season will not be viewed as a
negative experience but one from which
personal growth will occur for each player.

�he Kents Hill JV Basketball team had a highly ■■■■
successful 1988-89 season, finishing with an 8-4 ____
record. However, the numbers do not tell the
'
i
whole story of this hard working bunch. Half the team
that began the season was not around for the finish.
There were additions along the way that proved in- Bf-’ j
valuable. Mike Henschen’s steals. Brad Schloss'
clutch shooting, Ono Brandi’s shot blocking, and Hec­
tor Quiles' hustle and determination. They complemented several
individuals who played the entire season. Doug Owen and Aaron
Wah, two guards who played tenacious defense and provided an
offensive spark; Bill Reiss, the best penetrating guard we had.
was given the awesome task of running our highly technical
offense; Barney Palmer and Dominic Ingram, two players who
always gave their best and worked their butts off.
Ken Silk emerged as the MVP of this team, contributing points
on the court and helping me on the bench. Shizel Rose was also
invaluable as both an assistant and occasionally interim coach.
Some Highlights From the Season
The heartbreaking loss to Gould to open the season . . . Aveng­
ing a home loss to Hebron with an overtime win at their building
. . . Beating Berwick and Oak Grove-Coburn twice each ... Coach
Clemmey's inspirational halftime and timeout speeches .. . Box

first as a basketball coach.

against rival Waynflete. Other season high­
lights included on OT victory over Hyde at
season’s end with a dramatic game winning
goal by Pete Nelson as the clock ran out. Late
season victories over Waynflete and Gould re­
venged early season losses, while hot weather
wilted the team’s hopes at the J.V. tourna­

cooperative and the team played only seven
games against three opponents but man­
aged to win four of them. Bernie “Who’s he
talking to?" Meader led the pitching staff
with three wins Including the dramatic 1-0
shutout of Bridgton during Parents’ Week­
end. Pete “Scooter” McKernan picked up
the other win against Hebron Academy. Our
lineup had many bright spots starting with
the leadoff hitter Chris "The Roadrunner”
Ciampa and being followed by Dave “Fatty"
Ryan and Brad “Biff” Garner. The bottom of
our order was solidified by our power num­
ber nine hitter Geoff “Just a long out” Whit­
tier. Erik “Pigpen" Richman and Matt “The
Natural” Crane who Joined us halfway
through the Spring. The efforts of our catch­
er Todd "Pudge” Slade can’t go unnoticed
due to the fact he created some drama by
throwing numerous balls Into the outfield
but ended the year by throwing a runner out
at second base. It was a successful season
and we hope to see some of our team mem­
bers go on to play In college.

TIT 1th no returning lettermen from last
W Year- the Varsity Tennis team began
the season uncertain of its potential. Coach
DeHaven, despite normal Maine weather in
April, managed to get the team ready for an
opening victory against Hyde. After that, the
Huskies lost six close matches, before con­
cluding with a victory over Waynflete. This
year’s team was decidedly international.
Aaron Wah, of Los Angeles, via Hong Kong,
played number one singles; number two
was German exchange student Oliver En­
dlicher, while the number three slot was
filled by Ernesto Bredee of Mexico. Alex Car­
reno of Venezuela played on the number one
doubles team. The only player not returning
next year will be Oliver Endlicher; therefore
the prospects for the future look good.

TTZ e had a large team this
VV year and consistently
placed in all events in our meets.
We set six new school records.
Captains Johnny Byrd and Daryl
Thompson led the squad to a suc­
cessful season.
Aaron, Hasan, Dominic and
Challis headed up the jumping
team. Aaron ended up the
MAISAD champion in the triple
jump with Hasan placing second.
Encouraging enough, our team
was stocked with freshmen. Car­
oline was the only female member
of the team and did a fine job run­
ning the mile. Jamie Talbot, who
placed fifth in the shot at
MAISADS, Mike and Geoff Howe
and Graham Paine made up the
bulk of our throwing team. Other
throwers included Lance Marble
who broke his old discus record.
Rob Boisvert and Scott Christie
conquered the javelin. Rob placed
third in the MAISADS and
squashed the previous school rec­
ord by twenty feet. Thanks to all
of you for a fun season.

Dear Class of 1989:

As you engaged in the final walk from Commencement to a new adventure, I was
reminded of how very many people share in the glory that was yours on June 4, 1989.
Your list may Include others, but for the moment let us limit the group to parents,
faculty, friends and former graduates. Those with direct contact were Intimately en­
twined In our lives. They offered praise. They provided counsel. They were available In
moments of stress. Your success was their thanks for the partnership.
Too often, however, we overlook the generations that pass before our time. It was they
who built traditions, established standards, and provided the legacy for future gen­
erations. Although not physically present, I am sure they do share in your glory. And it Is
to them that I believe you now have an irrevocable allegiance.
As graduates, you must continue to reach for new goals. You must use the tools you
have been given to create a better place for others. You must not excuse away the
opportunity to serve. I wish you well on your Journey. I expect to hear good things from
each of you.
Sincerely,

Donald M.(Jacobs
Headmaster

ROBERT V. BROGAN, JR.

I certainly will never forget these past two years at Kents
Hill; especially my friends and teachers who have made it
such a memorable experience. I'd like to mention a few of
those people who deserve more than Just a simple
"goodbye.”

To be anything but yourself in a world
which is trying its hardest night and day to
make that which you are not, is to fight the
hardest fight of all.
e. e. cummings

Rob B. — "Heat Miser," Schnark, Tom Brokaw is GOD,
Our little adventure in Augusta. REM in Portland. Late
night TV parties!! Keep in touch.

Greg — More input, news with Tom, everlasting sneakers,
the taxi driver, marshmallow &amp; guppy, U3. you’ve been a
good friend — someday we’ll go pro.
Nigel — Skinny’s class, my war. werewolf cuts. Howdy
Doody Dance, Ah. she’s so hot, uppercut, Nigel — hope to
see you in the future. Keep in touch.
Jeff W. — Schnark. F-19 missions, late night war stories.
Bob’s caravan. I know you have a Nutter Bar, your Mom
told me so. — Good luck at B.U.
Chandler — You’ve worn out your welcome, never ending
signs, but we go back. Punch for punch in the bathroom,
someday I'll send you a new brush, maybe then you’ll stop
using mine.
Birdmaster — The Lover. Good luck in college.
Elliott — The McDonaldland muncher, you wanna get
bad. It was a fun weekend, although I lost my shoe. Good
luck at Keene.
Carp — I know it’s your house and all, I need a min. to
defrost first. Keep Jammin’.
Blake — It seems like a long year. I know you’ll find your
right atmosphere and right people. You have been a good
friend. Good luck to you.
Alyssa — One more year, you can do it.
Dominic — Someday you’ll stop leaving things in my
room!
Later to all the Bermudians on the 4th floor — Save Don.
Darkside — What happened to your roommate? Girls are
like polar bears.
Pete — It’s been long: I'm glad it’s over. Have fun and hope
to see you again.
Bucket and Manning — You guys are swell. My time is up.
I would like to thank all the teachers and everyone at
Kents Hill for their support. Thank you Mom and Dad and
my brothers for helping me get through. To all my friends,
good luck and be happy.

Nigel — ’Mold," Oodles of Noodles parties, what will we do
in Skinny’s class today? Even though your musical tastes
may be somewhat strange, you're still a great guy; may
you never feel the need to conform. Give me a call some­
time.
Elliott — the FACTS and only the FACTS, epileptic fits on
the floor, third period — time for a nap. may the fruit of
life never wither in your hands ... British lives!!!

To my family — Mom. Dad, Bob. Lynn. Scott, Chris, Ben,
Laura and Michelle. 1 cannot thank you enough.
Thanks also to — Mrs. Hansen, Mrs. DeHaven, Mrs. Mc­
Cauley, Mr. Crane and anybody else whom I forgot to
mention.

What a waste to lose one’s mind — or not to have a mind.
How true that is.
Vice President of the United States. Dan Quayle

Gettin’ locked in the closet. "Don’t ... stop" — the

— Sedrec — sneakin’ out at night, "whoa Nelly!!", "Alla"

ney." I never could have made it without you Esko.

Sue — Thanx for being there when 1 needed you — "stay
positive."
Chris — Thanx for all the memories — Best wishes for
you in the future — Keep your head up — I love you.
Kents Hill — See ya in the funny pages.
Loneliness eats the soul,
Nothing lasts, sometimes hearts get lost.
Beaten down by boredom, or helplessness.
So sometimes you have to say "what the .,."
— and sometimes in towns such as this
Hearts Just go hard and cold and the
Only way not to lose it is use it —
Never look back, never look down — dream on.
Great White

— Be yourself, no one can ever tell you you’re doing It wrong.
— You only understand how important and special something or someone
can be when It's gone.

Now you’d think that I’d be happy with the life 1 got .. .
Nobody knows ... nobody sees
Ain’t nobody really knows the Inner side of me ...
1 may seem secure ... I could have it made ...
You might think you see a lucky man who made the grade .. .
Nobody knows what dreams I see ...
Ain’t nobody really sure Just who they wanna be .. .
But everybody has a place and time ...
A chance to live ... A need to find ...
We all have something that we care about... I propose you find it out

It’s not a book ... or a magazine .. .
Or the stars who guide our fortunes on the silver screen ...
Nobody knows .. . It’s up to me . . .
Ain’t nobody who can say it like It ought to be ...
1 see my future at the rainbow’s end ...
happy hours ... timeless friends ...
and If 1 ever change to find my way ...
rest assured ... I will stay ...
You may see your life as a compromise ...
You may live to find the paradise dancin’ in your eyes ...
Nobody knows . .. It’s meant to be ...
Let the magic of the moment say it all to me.
Mom &amp; Dad. I owe you the world. When everything seemed to be going
downhill for me you came in and gave me a second chance. I hope I proved to
you both that I will be successful in the future. I LOVE YOU BOTH.

Farewell Kents Hill School, on to Europe.

In four years at Kents Hill 1 have grown from an invalid
(both physical and mental) into somebody who I feel is
ready to move out and face the world.
Kents Hill: This is all your fault, but I don’t blame
you. It had to happen sometime.
Before I write any further I would like to
Jim:
thank you for the time we’ve spent
together. In fact... "Thank You!" Your
presence and guidance has given me the
courage and ability to face the world in
my own style, regardless of what others’
opinions may be.
Without your encouragement I don’t think
Art:
I would have run so far and so well. I
can't sum up the confidence that feat has
given me. And so. simply, thank you.
What can I say? Throughout the years
Maud:
you have given me the Benefit of your
wisdom and experience, they have helped
an Immeasurable amount. My most vivid
memories of your help are about Kyle and
Jim. Without that and other assistance.
I'm not sure these last few years would
have been as enjoyable.
Mr. Dunn: Thank you for the drama program (that
goes for Maud also!) and for the A.P.
English. Not only has it Improved my
writing, but I’ve finally learned some
humanities and history.
I’ve no Idea what to say. You’ve been
Lance:
everything from a gotlod friend to a
behavioral consultant and inhibitor:
"Cassidy," Bermuda, the car (buy a
standard!), the golden arches (McD’s). you
are In love ... (as defined 4/7/89). Have
fun in Europe — you deserve it. Why do
you have all the luck?
Those of you I’ve neglected and those I’ve forgotten, be
assured that I’ll remember you. I may not think of you
often or. I may possibly write and call, but either way you
have affected my life and. good or bad. I forgive you and
implore you to contribute. Adam. Mike, JefL Kelly, Mrs.
Howe, Mr. Crane. Chipmunk (yes Holly that is you). Mrs.
Crane. Lorena, (and the rest — Lance knows how they’ve
helped and hindered). Lora. Wclub, ("God damn it
V’club!") Robbie. Mr. Waller, Warren. Patrick. The Wood­
sums (Thanks Steve). ... etc. But 1 ramble. You’ll all
bubble to the surface of mv thoughts occasionally. See ya.
G.R.
and so; And now on with life
Forever More

Tammy: Oh well, it's almost over. 1 think that you were
definitely the key factor in my survival at the Hill my senior
year. Halloween weekend . . . "You want to check out my
room??" What a surprise! Six months later I’m writing to you.
about to say good bye. We had some awesome times together:
Portland, what a "blast." late night Jacobs, both walking and
once I believe you were crawling. Spring Break! How was the
bus ride? I hope it was worthwhile. Too bad that our time
together has to end soon, but we'll make it. You don't believe
that I'll see you again. That's cool! I'll Just prove you wrong.
When I do see you again, remember “to love the one you're
with." I hope you make it at UMO. I know you will. Say hl to
your Mom for me. she's a cool lady! I love you Tam. Don’t
forget it. Later. "Trip Face.”
Nat: Nitty Gritty, what would I have done without you for 3
years? The only thing I really want to remember out of my first
2 years that has much importance is the "Lodge.” Whew! . . .
What a bash.
Senior year: "2-16”, "you got the 'T.P.,' for the
ferns?" "1C round stlc". "you got the point" and
"U.S.A."
Hey Nat. you can't beat winter term schedule. Yeah . . . OK
Lane!! Later Nat. have a good time in college. Oh yeah, you
have a friend on your chin.
Tom and. Judd: Hey. hey. hey . . . Next door neighbors. OH NO

Hey Tom. don't think about hairy gorilla??? Judd, have a good
time in Calif. Tom. I'll see ya next year when we take a
weekend.
Ono, Mtke and Ted: 3 years, get me out of here. Too bad we
stayed in Jacobs and you went to Sampson, it would have
been incredible. Don't forget the hut our 3rd year. It was the
one! You guys helped me through, thanks. Keep in touch.
Alt and Atmee: We had good times and bad times. All. the four
of us our Junior year in the spring were great. Aimee. you'll
probably marry Hench. Watch those worms on rainy nights
from Den to the smoker!! Don't forget that weekend with me
and Judd.
Shana: You are the best. Your suspension was only a tem­
porary set back. We'll hang in college. I love you. (Bubble)
Mike Gleason: You have one more year, deal with it the best
you can. Don't get frustrated and kill anyone. Just hang one
and kick back!! Later.
Mr. Kilgore: 1 could never thank you enough for everything
you've done for me. 1 hope you enjoy yourself when you leave
K.H. Thanks again.
Andy: "Burnt’^You better make It for four years. 1 think you
can deal if you use the woods as an escape. Don't forget about
the "AM mode" UGH! 1 love to get up for assembly. You want
to "VUNNY?" Next year youTI have a roommate you'll get
along with. Have a good time. Bumtl!

JAMES M. LEBLANC
4 years on the Hill:
First year — Lived in Wesleyan, had a great time with
my first roommate, John Segal, also known as Bubbles.
Met up with Derek H., Shawn R., Jeff K., and Jeff Pearlstein; what a fool! I can’t forget Steve E. That was the best
year on the Hill.
Second Year — Lived in Jacobs. Had Chris Phelan as a
roommate. Got into a lot of trouble with Mr. Rost. He loved
to kick in our door. Had a rabbit until Mr. Kilgore found it.
Big Hole in the wall, but it was a good year.
Third year — the worst; had a lot of pleasure and hated
life. Started to go out with girls. Tried my hand at skiing;
loved it. Got my heart broken, but loved that too!
Fourth year and last — What a great year. I turned into
a Jock. Soccer, ski patrol, and Lax. I broke new records in
dating the same girl 12 times! Tried to get good grades.
Now to say goodbye:
Derek Holmes: Take care pal. Thanks for being a good
friend and good luck. We had the best 4 years together.
Thanks for making the years fly!
Jay I. — Later Bud! Good luck! Take care! Remember the
ski weekend. How did we make it to N.H. with two Dyslexics in the front seat? Keep in touch.
Steve E. — Take care, good luck in the future. Thanks for
everything.
Jull S.: Next year it’s your turn. Thanks for all the talks
we had and for being there. I will miss you.
Kelli Sue Corrtgan: Well. I guess this is goodbye. Twelve
times, what a record! Hey, take care, I love you more than
you will know! Remember 1 will see you in 4 years. Guess
what; don’t be afraid to grow up, OK. and I hope that you
find someone who will treat you the way I did! Take care
and good luck. You will be deeply missed. I knew that we
would be together ever since 1 first saw you. I hope to win
the bet.
To everyone else, good luck; see you all somewhere in
time!
Mrs. Dunn: Thanks for everything; I will miss you pushing
me. Thanks.
Ms. Shuster: Mom. I will miss the talks and back rubs.
Thanks for everything.
and last...
Thank you Mom and Dad for putting up with all my stuff
for 4 years and for giving me a chance to live away and for
believing in me. I love you both.

Kents Hill.
It is hard to think that these two years have gone by
already. 87-88 was a hell of a year at the hill, but somehow
I made it without buggin’ out. Year 2 on the hill was a
blast, crazy times and crazy people made my year great,
my wacko room-code name: The game room. World games
12-3? Spookism is how you won Dill, want a cookie? White
boy’s disease? Only Chuck would know that, when Chuck
lifts weights don't walk up the stairs — remember? Desert
Pond is hell part II during the spring. Brad — you are one
crazy person to talk to. want a gun? Hey Nick E.. what are
you doing?, kill the mouse yet? Hummm! Ed B.. you're
such a man. want to get bad? Nick Josem — Good picking
next year. Burso — nice laugh, chill out and don't talk so
loud, you talk too much. Talbot, lose some weight and get a
real life. Don P., did someone really shoot you with a
shotgun? Nice 5.00 model there Don. I still want my lures
Don!! Aaron (Rambo) — Soda. OJ and what else? I think
it's Ralph not Rambo! Keep up the lifting little man and
you will be one mean person someday, don’t ever go back
to Desert Pond with your bike, Aaron it’s 1:15. back at
5:15, you're one wild guy.
To all my teachers that I had during the two years I was
here, thank you. Mr. Kilgore — You should be a me­
teorologist for Channel 8. a day of bad fishing is better
than a day of no fishing at all. Phil M. — Nice pink shirt.
Take care and the food was not that bad my two years
here. Lloyd, thanks for bugging me these two years, 1
needed it!!
Finally, thanks Mom and Dad. This place helped me out
a lot.

ERIC NESLER PLOTE

Summing up my two years at K.H. —
Persistence
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will
not: nothing Is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not: unrewarded genius Is almost a proverb. Education
will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and
determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan, "press on" has
solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
Calvin Coolidge
Bolster — "Study Sklller" 2 great years. Don't forget all the good
times, especially: graveyard golf. Grateful Dead roof dancing. Baja
Jetta. Golf naked, outdoor bathroom "the bucket" balcony diving.

hit me. do It." "Get away I can make the pizza." Sugarloaf —
“Don't worry about me 1 have to use the bathroom, you can use the
shower." Greyline bus. Let's hitchhike. The first day. not too good,
but good: I don't know about you. but we're going to Augusta. "Flag
them down."
Slade — the No. 1 stud I'll ever meet. Gotta Chev?. come on Slade
you know you want to smoke. How's Melanie. I mean Claudine. I

TODD SLADE
Brad G. — It’s on top of the punching bag: that smell Is
wax: my batting average was better, that’s why I hit third.
I had a great time In Atlanta. But Deston Is going to be
great. You’ll never run out of mouse. The first year was
easier after talking to you. You were right about Melanie.
Watch out ODU. You don't have your bus license. Cat
back.
Chris G. — Are you going down again tonight? Let's have
a chew. Having you as a roommate was interesting. You
better come down to Florida. You better call me this sum­
mer and let me come out to Nantucket. You’ll give me free
gas. Let’s go to the fort. I knew you’d have a good time in
Russia.
Mike D. — Scratch, Rub, Scratch, can’t wait to have
crawfish this summer. We should have spent more time at
the fort. Sure, sure, sure BKJV2. Let's go lift. How many
classes did you miss today. Hope you don’t have too many
Ithaca itches next year.
Ruth S. — It was fun until you left. You lost the bet.
Brad S. — Watch *58 on the game films and you'll know
all. How are the stars? It’s your turn to buy chew. Keep
lifting.
Plote — Have a dip: nice flat top. Add more Hawaiian
Punch. We better go to Nantucket. Keep in touch.
Beth G. — You were a great girl when you didn’t have the
attitude.
Dave R. — We better take some more train trips. How’s
Kim? Don’t worry, you take my bed. I’ll hit the floor. The
goal is to stay In the bed, not fall, it hurts falling.
Daryl T. — You were a great roommate until the alarm
went off. How’s the computer and Roby the Robot?
Sarah — 1’11 never forget you. Sorry for the beginning of
our senior year, bus trip, back yard. I hope I see you this
summer. Love you always.
Ang — It could have worked. Pick the skin from under
your nails. What size helmet do you wear? Green always
looks good on you. I wish we were as close as the first year,
but friends get In the way (just Joking). Yes, you did make a
good choice.
Shana — It’ll never last over the summer. You’ll get a
copy of the tape this summer.
Clampa — Nice trip. I want that water well. Tell Jackie
that I want to meet her.
Tara — Don’t worry, you're better than Shana.
Bernie — Get the Bible, it tells all. Where’s my $20?
Afrs. B. — Gulp.

STEPHEN ELLIOTT
4 long years on top of the hill. Kents Hill School: has some good
points AND some bad points. But not that bad over all. I have met a
lot of people over the years: strange, crazy, Just plain different. The
worst, rooming with Marc Wien my first year in Wesleyan.
To some of the people this year — Derek. Jim. Jay, Nick, the
weekend at Attltash, definitely crazy.
J.I. — Nice freaky body, thanks for all the help over the years. I
couldn’t have made it without you. Have a great time at college.
J.L. — I can’t believe you're going out with Kelly again; you’re
crazy, finally graduating from the hill, 4 long years together,
remember Pee wee, and Bubbles, the old crew, we Wesleyanites
reunited.
D. H. — You’re lucky Shawn never came back. I’m sure you’re
glad. Your life. 1 bet. would have been different. We have been
through a lot together, a lot of good times. Have a great life.
N.E. — Hope you do well at U.R. — you’ve got a sick mind. A lot of
good times.
E. B.. B.W.. O.E.. — Thanks for the great weekend at Sugarloaf,
especially the hotel room. “Yea. let's to C.V.A." Are those guys
really from Germany? “Hey guys, I had a little up chuck"
Perly — You’re a great basketball player. Is that the fonz?
G.V. — you nerd. Just kidding, sorry about what happened last
year. Sorry about killing British Airways. 1 thought he wanted to go
to class. You're a great friend, I know you will do great in college.
Have a great summer. Maybe I’ll see you in D.C.
B. B. — You got the best walk. Most original. We had some good
times. Hope you enjoy your bike, be careful. Enjoy college.
N.S. — You listen to crazy music, but that’s ok.
C. D. — This place Is a little different from the old hill. Good times
in your room, late night.
Liz M. — Who know what happened on the bus. I don't care
anymore. Have a nice life.
D. S. — Pee Wee Herman, "let's play lunch"
Kelsey — You've got a great sense of humor, stop putting banana
peels on the floor. Have a great senior year.
To all my teachers over the years, thanks for all you have done
for me.
Mr. Hansen — Very weird teaching style.
Mr. DeHaven — 1 learned the most from you. Thanks a lot.
Mr. Mitchell — You’re a great guy. with a temper. Ski coach for 2
years, ended up with slalom champs, not bad. A lot of good times.
Have a good life — your friend. Steve Elliott.
Mr. McKinney — Your class for two years. I understand your style
of teaching. Not specifics, but wholes — more or less B.S.
Mr. Horton — I didn't learn too much In computer class, but you're
a great guy though.
Finally. Mr. Kilgore — Never got a deer but heard bears and deer. 1
heard them while 1 was still In the car. Great times I'll never forget
with you. Sorry I couldn't spend more time with you my senior
year. Maybe I'll see you some time.
Thanks Mom for everything. 1 would have never done it
without you. AU those trips following someone else's idea of
the correct way? Love you. your Son.
My philosophy to life Is: things are good or bad. What’s in
between you should stay away from. But. most Importantly
you should always have fun while you’re doing it.
A real Patriot Is the fellow who gets a parking ticket and
rejoices that the system works.

Once in awhile you can get your delight,
In the strangest of places If you look at it right.
Farethewell now. let your life proceed by Its own desire.
Let the words be yours, I am done with mine.
Gone are the days we stopped to decide
Where we should go, we Just ride
Gone are the broken eyes we saw through in dreams
Gone, both dream and lie.
Recall the days that still are to come
Some sing blue.

CHRISTOPHER N. ANNAND
Southern girls are good.
Southern women are better,
Kents Hill stinks.
Northern women aren’t any better.
Daryl T. — We Southern boys are out of place In Yankee
land, but we made It through untarnished by these
unmannered heathens. Good luck in college and In the
future beyond college.
Todd — I wonder how long you will last down South
without killing Biff. I hope that you make the baseball
team at ODU and have better luck with the girls down
south than the girls at Kents Hill.
Biff — You are without a doubt the neatest person 1 have
ever met. I hope that you and Todd last more than three
weeks as roommates, but I doubt y’all can.
Champ — I hope that you don't get lonely with all those
boys without Shana. Kick butt In football.
Plote — I hope that you will find some nice southern girl to
settle down with and leave all those northern women
alone. They’re bad news.
Dave — Don’t party too much at Elon.

I won’t believe In heaven or hell
No saints, no sinners, no devil as well
No pearly gates, no thorny crown
You’re always letting us humans down
The wars you bring, the babies you drown
Those lost at sea and never found
It’s all the same the whole world round
The hurt 1 see helps to compound
That Father. Son &amp; Holy Ghost
Is Just somebody’s unholy hoax
And If you're up there you’d perceive
That my heart’s here upon my sleeve
If there’s one thing I don't believe In
It’s you
Dear God

Heaven can wait. We’re only watching the skies.

We don’t have tne power.

I often ask myself, "Why am I putting myself through this
educational B.S.?” When 1 start to think like that I remind
myself of the words that a wise toll booth worker on the
Mass. Pike once said to me. “As you may have noticed, 1
have no chin. One day 1 decided to grow a beard to give me
the illusion of having a chin, but. it didn't work. It Just
looked like a I had a hairy lip.” That's not what keeps me
going, but It Is a good story. The thing that really keeps me
going are the people who love me and are close to me
(Mom. Grandparents, my family and Keith &amp; his family).
Thank you and I love you.
Hey look, I'm finally here.

Yes there are two paths you can go by but in the long run
There’s still time to change the road you're on.

— Led Zeppelin
I'm grateful to Kents Hill for helping me change The Road 1 was on. Il
was a long year, but without It who knows where I'd be? I finally
proved to myself that a little hard work could get me places. This guy
Is ready for college. Dartmouth? Stay tuned It could be Interesting.
The Athletic Memories:
Soccer '88 — butt traps, cycle’, so pro. slcko saves, so Euro, mud
slides. Bridgton game. Gould game. Hebron blizzard and OT. So
close but yet . ..
Skiing — Yea JV! Mitch must not want any "Petes" on Varsity, right
Davis and Nelson? Either the most gratifying or the most frus­
trating sport I've come across.
Baseball ’89 — Whoever wants to know the heart and mind ol
America had better learn baseball.
— Jaques
The first team I’ve been on that practices in snow storms. We could
have used you. Matty. Posts 205 forever! A great team, glad 1 was
a part of It.
I enjoy being the pitcher. A lot of eyes are on you at that time, and
you’ve got to perform. It’s not like any other game. This Is the only
team where tney can single out a guy that could have cost you the
game, and It’s usually the guy with the ball In his hand.
— Roger "Rocket Man" Clemens
Thanks to the kids I’ve met and have made me laugh:
Daryl — Horton dodging. James Bond Style. You cross country ski
guru. Good luck In college, we ll meet again.
Jason — Keep up on The NAPA Brake Clinics. Hang in there, psycho.
DJ — The day student duo. "Have a nice weekend, boarders.’
Plote and Ciampa — Sure. I’ll go to the store. See you guys In Mass,
sometime.
Richman — Fellow Maine resident, not "Mainer."
Steph — "You know I’ve changed this year." Have fun out West,
"dude."
Lynch — "The car? No. not the car." Good luck with soccer and your
senior year.

Alicia — The Calculus goddess. Keep hitting those tennis balls and
keep In touch. I'm interested in how you like college.
Ruth, of course — You’ve helped me learn a lot about life and myself
Thank you for the times we spent together. Keep in touch. "Two
worlds collided ..
My baseball buddles — Dave Ryan. Slade. Ciampa. Brad. Eric, whit­
tier. Bernie, and Matty.
Also: Bryan McConnaughcy. Bolster. Dowling, Gresham. Jeff Thomp­
son. Elliott. lovlno. Brogan. Vanessa. Shana. The KH Connection
"Staff.”
And the Juniors who have to endure one more year on "The Hill
Matty. Meehan. Brian Wilson. Tim Lynch. Bret Chernik. Schloss.
Dabney and Perlsteln.
Chamonix ’89 — Cruzln.’ Boozln.’ and Snoozin’ on Chamonix! (some skiing,
too.) Audabon. Mississippi Mud. Warren Miller Cliff Jumping with Meehan.
I would also like to thank the unique faculty and my teachers:
Mr. DeHaven — for sparking new interest and showing me what
responsibility is all about. Good luck with next year’s class and
newspaper.
Mr. McKinney — The teacher and coach. I’ve learned a lol. Thanks.
Ms. Howe — This type "A" personality must get 105.
Mr. Gilpatrick — A love-hate relationship with your class, but after
five years of High School I finally feel some confidence In my
writing skills.
Mrs. Crane — Calculus Is a little easier the second time through. You
taught it well.
Mr. Jewett. Mr. Mitchell. Mr. Crane. Mr. Jacobs.

�CHRISTOPHER M.
GEMINSKI
Kents Hill was certainly a different experience as far as life Is concerned:
there were many differences from public school. New rules, new people, a new
home ... it all took some time to get used to. In that time though. 1 made some
friends whom I will always remember. Some I may see again and I hope our
friendships will continue. Others, because of barriers of land or sea I might
not. But how lucky I am to have known so many to whom saying goodbye to is
so hard.
Shlzel Rose, ours has been a special friendship. I will never forget the
memories we had here at Kents Hill both on and off the basketball court. On
the court, you are an all-star. The moves you made and that vertical leap ...
sometimes I would Just stand back and watch the show. You left me in awe. as
well as our opponents, many times: next year should be even better for you.
I’m Just sad that I won’t be playing with you. 1'11 be up for a game or two
though, that's a definite. You've got to do some serious work this summer at
Five-Star; those college coaches will be all over, watching every move you
make. And, when you're playing In the big games, making the big lays. I'm
going to be proud as can be to say I played on the same team as you. Always
remember our basketball season at KH. we won some and we lost some, but
more Importantly we had fun. Off the court, you were my best friend. You
were someone whom I could talk to about anything. We had some fun times
Just rapping out In the Union during lunch or dinner, and while In the library
keeping up on the Knicks. (Go Mark Jacksonl) One day we'U have to go see a
game together. Shlzel. you've been a great friend and helped me out In many
ways. If you ever need a hand you know the number and address, don't
hesitate to keep In touch anywhere, any time.
Steve Pease, you Mainer. You are Invited down to my house anytime you can
make It. 1 want to see you play some "street ball" with my friends and me. We
had some great memories and fun times around campus and on the court.
Always keep those memories and keep up the basketball. Don't forget to stay
In touch.
Brad Gamer and Bernie Meader, hey 1 enjoyed playing ball with you guys.
We wouldn't have been much of a team without the both of you.
Brad, we had some fun In Mitch's class huh? By the way what Is the density
of ten bushels of apples If ...
Daryl and Jeff Thompson, let's get together to do some hunting sometime In
the future.
Hey. you guys from Bermuda. 1'11 make It down there one day. Thanks for
being great friends, we had some fun times together. Good luck In college next
year and keep In touch.
John Kilpatrick, we've got to do some hunting together someday too. Maybe
we'U go after quail or grouse. Hanging out with the Bermudians during lunch
was fun, we had some great laughs, most of the time at Michelle and Challis'
expense. Keep watching the Hornets. In a few years they will be right up there
with the best teams in the NBA.
Erik Richman. I wish you all the best of luck In your aspirations to fly In the
Air Force. It has always been a dream of mine as well. Only the best make It,
so push yourself to the limit. When you do make It. I want to ride, ten bucks
says you won't get me slckl
Mike Hirst, someday you'll get a ride on my iceboat, then you'll see the most
awesome style of sailing In the world. You've got to teach me how to windsurf
if I ever make It to Tortolla.
Caroline Gray, thanks for being a special friend during cross-country sea­
son. keep on running and you will only Improve.
Mr. Joy. hey guy you're stokedl Thanks for being a great coach. 1 learned
more about myself while 1 was striding through the woods than I have while
participating in any other sport.
Nick Eskesen and Chuck Preble, thanks for teaching me how to ski. That
first day I was so sore!
Geoff and Mike Howe. I look forward to doing some fishing with you
sometime in the future. You'll have to show me your secret spots where the
big lunkers hang out

KENNETH J. SILK
Kelsey — Every time we were together we never had a boring
time. The first time we met. making P&amp;B sandwiches, walking
back to Davis. You and I are like the same, we are never afraid
of having fun even if we are In bad moods.
Derek — You are a true friend. Thanks for letting me hang
In your room when I was not getting along with my loser
roommate. We had great times, LA Law, Wonder Years. Night­
ingales. Madonna, Samantha Fox and the VCR. Thanks for
keeping my stomach full. You and I really did get a lot of work
done during study hall.
Tammy — Thanks for helping me out In the first week of
school. Remember the trip to Orono? What about the ride back
to school with the two bums? How about the time we were
coming home from Boston? Me stumbling around on the bus.
Thanks for being there when I needed you! I need silver
dollars!
Maud — You are the greatest teacher I ever had. If all the
teachers I had were like you, school would be worth going to.
Maud, you are a special friend, a friend I could trust and relate
to. I wish there were more people like you.
Jay — You were always quiet, but fun to hang out with. You
got to stop being shy and start to come out of your shell. Jay,
you will always smell. To me you are my closest friend. You
would listen to me and not say anything because I would beat
the crap out of you if you Interrupted me.
Heather — I wish you were here at the beginning of the school
year. Every day I learned something new about you and we
had so much fun together. The first time I met you Is when you
had that fight with Kelsey. I thought you were a shy girl, but I
had the wrong Idea. Thanks for calling me and I had a fun bus
ride home with you.
Don — Damn! Those Friday and Saturday nights were boring.
Did you receive a package yet? Slim ana his light show. See
you In the Cape. Keep out of trouble LOSER1
Tim — We were close until I moved. We had some happening
times. We also had some great memories in that room; biting
my fingernails, smelling those fresh socks of yours, playing
gin ana helping me with my Pre-Cal.
Steve — You are a spaz and a psycho. There Is something
about us two. We never agreed on anything. Ifvou were right I
would try to prove you wrong. 1 always enjoyed ragging on you
and having fights with you. It was always a pleasure to watch
you play basketball ana lacrosse.
Angela — We had some awesome times together. I’m glad I
met you in Mrs. Hamovlt’s class. Hiding each other’s books,
hot, warm, cold. Playing paper scissors. W-h-y d-o y-o-u t-a-l-k
1-1-k-e t-h-l-s? Scratching my back. After class we had as
much fun together. Down In Davis, breaking the window.
Hiding In your closet while Tanya was In your room. Then
getting busted by Ms. Homer. What about studying for finals?
Me and my Big Bird and reading the books A Is for Apple and
taping all of us on your tape recorder. Keep in touch. I love ya.
1 will be thinking about alt of you even the people I didn’t write
about. Please don’t be offended if I forgot your name in my
memories, but I will still be thinking about everyone I met this
past year.

Well! Mud lax. not quite clean fun. Maine, “Has only two
seasons — winter and the Fourth of July,” $Prtng comes
and the rain follows. Eat, class, sport, study, sleep. Old 1
shot straight for once. P.J.’s Rule to Life, “If you re in
control you’re not going fast enough.” Chow to all.

NIGEL C. SERBE
Wei!. I guess it’s time for a long goodbye. I’d say that my stay tn cell block
315 was alright. Sometimes things went from one extreme to the other, but. In
retrospect. It was worth It. In fact. I like It so much that 1 think I'll rob a liquor
store and have the experience of prison to build a strong and austere char­
acter. I guess that that’s one of my goals In life. That, and becoming inspector
number thirteen for Hanes underwear. However. 1 have a feeling that working
on the Inspection line for Hanes Isn't as prestigious as the advertisements on
television make It appear to be. Television, more often than not. is Just trash.
Anyways. I guess It’s time for a change In surroundings now.
Oh. and by the way. 1 didn’t include any specific memories because It would
be futile to try to recall all of ’em. Well. I hope that you all will remember, as I
will, all of the things that have happened to us during our time spent on the
rock and be glad that It all happened. I don’t know, but 1 do know that the past
few sentences have been excessively boring and corny, so 1 am going to end
this before I wear out my welcome. “I’m sorry to say. but I’m on my way. I
won’t be back for many a day. so goodbye everybody.” I’m not sure who
originally said that, but anyway ...
Nigel
P.S. There’s this one song by the Jam called "Thick As Thieves" that makes
me think of a couple of mischievous kids who w ere once best friends, but have
now grown up and gone their separate ways. It goes something like this:
Times were so tough, but not as tough as they are now
We were so close and nothing came between us and the world
No persona] situations.
Thick as thieves us. we'd stick together for all time
And we meant It. but It turned out Just for awhile
We stole the friendship that bound us together.
We stole from the schools and their libraries
We stole from the drugs that sent us to sleep
We stole from the drink that made us sick
We stole anything that we couldn't keep.
And It was enough, we didn't have to do anything
We’d always be as thick as thieves.
Like a perfect stranger you came Into my life
Then like the perfect Lone Ranger you rode away
We stole the love from girls In Ivory towers
We stole Autumn leaves and summer showers
We stole the sun and the wind that says you are free
We stole everything that we could see.
But It wasn’t enough and now we’ve gone and spoiled
everything
Now we’re no longer as thick as thieves
You came Into my life. then, like a perfect stranger you
oVVl
walked away.
Thick as thieves us. we’d stick together for all thm^
And we meant It. but turned out Just for awhI!
We stole the friendship that bound us together
We stole the burning sun In the open sky
(
We stole the twinkling stars in the black nightV
We stole the green belt fields that made us bell A
We stoic every thing that we could see.
y
But something came along and It changed our irl
Though 1 don’t know what and I don’t knowu^M
But we seemed to grow up In a flash of
While wc watched our Ideals helplessif^tf^f
And no we’re no longer as thick as thlevc^^^S
We’re not as thick as we used to be.
No it wasn’t enough
And now we’ve gone and spoiled everything
— Now we’re no longer as thick as thieves.

would have been happier somewhere else where I was
treated at least half my age, not a quarter of it. Although, I
did have fun sometimes.

here again. Go to New Hampton if you still cant
Schloss — Ha, ha, another year.
Bernie — Car crashes at 6:00 pm, Sunday nite won't help
us get to school on time. Also, thanks for the movie on that
same nite.
Mrs. Bradley — Thanks for making the second half of this
year possible. Thank you.
To the Bermudians — Safe Dunn.
To all the Seniors and P.G.’s going to school or starting in
the work force — "Welcome to The Jungle."
The people were great; the school was lacking. Good bye.

am are not good for the reputation.

To list on one half a page all the memories of my year at
Kents Hill would be impossible. Most of those memories
will fade with these yellow pages, but I shall list them here
in an effort to keep them alive. Even after the names and
faces are Just a blur, I will always have the memories of
how I felt this year and those few special people who were
part of my life for a short time and made me smile.
Elizabeth Merwin — Well "B.” don't forget to find those
"Wild Things." Snow geese, lying under chairlifts and
getting promotional videos at Sugarloaf. Going uptown
and downtown. Mud dancing in the field, leather skirts
and fun d.p. Keep smiling and learn to ski more than 10
feet at a time. Keep your skis clean and your men sweet.
Blake Klauber — We have to talk. Men have only two
faults, everything they say and everything they do. They
are the leftovers of the world, hot and cold, hot and cold.
Learn to use the ropetow and stay away from my Koala
bear. Listen to the radio. I’ll be there.
Kendra — Chuckle rules. The Smiths, Erasure, Yaz,
House Martins, New Order, Gene Love Jezabel and S.
O’Conner. Never let anyone glue their hands to your closet. Reading backwards, lipstick in a blue container and
April 26th. Watch out for snowplows that drive on ice
sidewalks and lights that stay on all night. You know me
better than anyone else I’ve ever met, even though we ve
Just met. Don’t let them get you down. Remember Ein­
stein, John Lennon and Andy V.
Max — You know me better than I know myself. Pier
Anthony, Robert Helnllen and computers to do the spell­
ing. Samona, "studying’’ and the weekly English paper.
Paolo and Francesa, bickering. "You Can’t Take it With
You," “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Fo­
rum." The only chocolate chip cookie in my Jar. Try not to
contract AIDs in California and keep writing. I love you as
much as I hate you, and that’s a lot. Forever yours. Chip­
munk
There were others too. So many others. Rob J. and Amy
S., you make flying fun. All the girls in Wesleyan and,
staying up late. Mr. Dunn, who accepted my flaws with my
strengths, was a friend as well as a teacher. Ms. Howe,
thank you for always telling us, "Accept each other for
what we are." Dylan, I hope you find a girl who deserves
you.

DANIKA A. POWELL
To Bermuda
Mom and Dad — I don’t know what to say other than thank you and that I
love you. I know It wasn't easy. In no way, sending me to school here. If I would
have done what I should have, I wouldn’t be here in the first place. I’m sorry.
Thank you for believing in me and allowing me a second chance. I’ll never be
able to repay you for that, but I’ll find a way. I promise. One day we’ll have It

all.

through this past year and the years before that. You’re the best anyone could

have.

Dina —

The Maine LDesleyan Seminary
and

Womans College.
Founded.

The Maine Wesleyan Seminary, now entering upon its
eighty-fourth year, was opened to students in February, 1824.

Character of the School.
The Maine Wesleyan Seminary is a school for both sexes.
It aims to cultivate high scholarship and to develop high moral
character. The close association and fellowship of teachers and
students make the school a large family in which a kindly
spirit directs a firm, loving discipline to further a manly self­
control and a true self-development. It is a religious school,
but is not sectarian.
Location.

The school is located on Kent’s Hill, four miles from Read­
field Depot, its railroad station, fourteen miles from Augusta
and sixty miles north of Portland. It is reached over the Lew­
iston and Skowhegan line of the Maine Central Railroad.
Faculty.

Its corps of fourteen teachers are specialists in their several
departments and instructors of acknowledged skill and ability.
Home.

This school is a home. Its separate dormitories have light,
airy, well-furnished, steam-heated rooms, modern bath and
toilet rooms supplied with hot and cold water, and a large
dining room where teachers and students eat together.

■

An abundant supply of pure water, pure food much of
which is produced on the large farm of the school, pure, bracing
air, good drainage and regular hours for meals, work and sleep,
all contribute to the remarkable healthfulness of the student
body. Added to this the constant and wise supervision of the
students by the teachers makes this school an ideal home.

Furnishings.
The students’ rooms are provided with necessary and com­
fortable furniture. Students will, however, provide their own
sheets, pillow cases, towels, toilet soap, napkins and napkin
rings, also a lamp. Carpets, pictures and other ornaments if
desired are provided by the students.

The Seminary.
College Preparatory.

Students are here prepared for any college, also for profes­
sional, scientific and technical schools.

.

Certificate.

This is an approved school of the New England Entrance
Certificate Board, and its certificates admit students to any col­
lege accepting students on certificates.

Seminary.
■

’

"

Two high grade Seminary Courses are offered to those who
desire to extend their studies beyond the high school, but do
not intend to take a full college course. These courses offer
studies which broaden the outlook on life and specially fit for
intelligent citizenship.

■

Elementary.

An Elementary Course is offered for students not prepared
to commence a College Preparatory or Seminary Course, and
yet would feel out of place in a grammar school.

�_

_____

.Art.

A three years’ course in Art under a competent teacher is
provided, which fits for teaching or lays the foundation of Art
as a profession. Freehand Drawing is a part of each literary
course.

Business College.
The well-equipped Business College occupies four large
rooms in Bearce Hall. It offers a one and a two years’ Busi­
ness Course and a Shorthand and Typewriting Course.
As good instruction and facilities for a practical business
education are here provided as can be found elsewhere, at much
less expense both for tuition and board.
The quiet of the
school’s location and its freedom from temptations and allure­
ments insure a much closer application to study than can be
expected in a crowded center with its many inviting amusement
attractions and temptations and consequent waste of money
and time.
Students in the Business College have all the privileges of
the school, access to the library, the reading rooms, the literary
societies; they can take studies in Art, Music or such literary
branches as they may desire, and live in the school with its
many advantages under the constant care of the teachers.
Music.

The school offers excellent musical advantages. The
building housing the music department is the finest and best
appointed to be found east of Boston. It was planned and built
for this department. It is supplied with eleven new high grade
pianos and one large concert grand.
The musical directors have had many years’ experience as
teachers, and are this summer studying at the Summer School
of the Institute of Musical Art, New York City. The piano­
forte teacher is a recent graduate of the New England Conser­
vatory, and is a fine performer and an up-to-date instructor.
Instruction is given in voice, harmony, pianoforte, violin,
organ, cornet and other orchestral instruments.

The Woman’s College.
The Woman’s College was chartered in i860, and confers
the degrees of A. B. and A. M. in course upon its graduates.
The College Courses are as broad as those of any college in
Maine admitting women, and opportunity is furnished not pro­
vided in other Maine colleges to take Art and Music as studies
in the course.
The past effectiveness of the Woman’s College is attested
by the successful work of the several hundred graduates now
at work.
Last year a College Literary Society was organized, and
Campaspe, a play written by John Lyly, was successfully given
commencement week.
The colleges in Maine now admitting women limit the
number they will accept. It is now fully determined to develop
rapidly the Woman’s College, and so give the many young
women in Maine who desire and need a college course the
needed opportunity. Seventy-five young women can be accom­
modated in the Freshman class this fall, and efforts are being
made to secure that number. The college is well equipped
with teachers, laboratories, library, gymnasium, has a physical
director, a graduate of Posse Gymnasium, and needed appli­
ances for college work. Its thorough College Course is fur­
nished at small cost and under the most healthful surroundings.
The expense a year for tuition, board, room rent, steam
heat, lights and incidentals is about $200.

Physical Training.

s

fee

A healthy mind needs a healthy body. A healthy body
necessitates systematic exercise that should be taken as far as
possible in the open air. Ample opportunity for such exercise
is here provided. The campus is large and beautiful. There
are five tennis courts and an athletic field.

The Gymnasium.

i

A good gymnasium, well supplied with suitable apparatus,
provides opportunity for indoor exercise. A competent physical
director is provided for the boys in the winter, and a graduate
of Posse Gymnasium will direct the physical exercises of the
girls throughout the year.

I

Laboratories.

Large and well-equipped Biological, Chemical and Physical
Laboratories make possible most efficient experimental and
testing work in these branches and add greatly to the value of
these studies.
Buildings.
The buildings are among the finest school buildings in
New England.
The grounds are extensive and beautiful.
Sampson Hall, the dormitory and boarding house, is a substan­
tial brick building, with large, well-ventilated, steam-heated
rooms, and contains the well-appointed dining room, modern
bath and toilet rooms, and the ladies’ literary society halls.
Bearce Hall is a fine brick structure which contains the recita­
tion rooms, chapel, museum, chemical and physical laborato­
ries, the reading room and the literary halls of the gentlemen.
Ricker Hall is a modern building containing the gymnasium,
art rooms, library and superb accommodations for the music
department.

Library and Reading Rooms.
The large and growing library now has ten thousand
volumes. The books were selected with a special view to the
needs of students and are readily accessible for reading and
reference.
The reading rooms are well supplied with daily and weekly
papers and the best of the magazines.

Literary Societies.

There are four literary societies, the Calliopean and Lit­
erati, for gentlemen, and the Adelphian and Eromathean, for
ladies. Each society holds a private meeting on Friday even­
ing and one public meeting a term. Each society occupies an
elegantly furnished hall of which it has exclusive possession.

�No feature of student life has more important relation to
the responsibility of after years than the drill in these society
gatherings, whereby are acquired parliamentary skill, inde­
pendence of thought and readiness in expression.
Superior .Advantages.

i

]

The superior advantages of such a school are seen in the
above enumeration. The students are under the care of Chris­
tian teachers twenty-four hours a day for seven days in each
week. Not only are they given brain training in the recitation
room, but they are also taught good manners in the dining hall,
a proper respect for each other’s rights and a proper regard
for property. In the social life of the school they become
acquainted with the usages of good society. In the literary
societies, practice in debate, in recitation, in presiding over
assemblies, in public work, all unite to bring out the possibili­
ties in youth that otherwise might not be discovered. Wise
examiners of these phases of this school’s life have affirmed that
these alone are worth more than the cost of the school to a
student.

Expenses.
Table board is $3.00 a week.
All students except self-boarders, those living with rela­
tives and those working their board will board in the Seminary
boarding hall.

Tune: “Materna”

The fathers came and viewed this land,
These hills and valleys fair;
Its lakes, like precious gems, adorn
The landscape rich and rare:
Kents Hill, Kents Hill, the beautiful,
Long may this vision stay,
Of hills and dales and fertile fields
To cheer us on our way.

Here saints and seers and hopeful youth
Commingle in the quest
For life abundant and the power
To be and do our best:
Kents Hill, Kents Hill, the wonderful,
What charm thy name recalls
In vanished personalities
Amid these stately halls.
Here scholars breathed ambrosial air
And tasted hallowed sweets
While learning in these halls of light
And mingling on these streets:
Kents Hill, Kents Hill, though beautiful,
A hidden power is thine
By God’s good grace above all else,
A spirit all divine.

The fathers saw beyond The Hill,
And we that vision share:
To Heights Beyond they led the way
With faith and courage rare:
Kents Hill, Kents Hill, we will pursue
That star in Yonder Sky
That leads to service here below
And honors God on High.

Kents Hill, Kents Hill, the Masterful
To all who come and go,
Implant thy spirit in our hearts
For conquests here below:
To thee, Kents Hill, we will be true,
Enchanted by thy lure,
Make good thy confidence in us
While Fellowships endure.
—William Wood, ’92

�GREETINGS FROM THE HEADMASTER
To the new students at Kents Hill:
This handbook is designed to introduce you
to campus life. Read it carefully for it pro­
vides the framework for all school activity.
All that a school is and what is expected of
its students can certainly not be placed in a
directory.
Ours is a democratic society that demands a
great deal of the individual. Your school, much
like your society, is what you make it. We
encourage individual thought and initiative, but
feel you must learn to play an active and re­
sponsible role in the community. You will work,
think and play together — this is simply an
outline of campus life which requires your par­
ticipation to make it purposeful and meaning­
ful. Bring to it your spirit, your thoughts and
your heart and its continued success is assured.
Robert A. Chumbook, Headmaster
Kents Hill School

LIFE AT KENTS HILL
Welcome to Kents Hill! May both you and
the school be better for your having been here.
As a student at Kents Hill, you become a
member of a large group of people who have
shared the experience of life at the school.
They have made and lived by its traditions, and
those traditions have been a molding in­
fluence in their lives.
Chartered in 1824, Kents Hill has made her
way known through the lives of many genera­
tions of her sons and daughters. As one of the
6

�first coeducational schools in the country,
Kents Hill admitted girls in 1824, and in 1860
established the first college course in the coun­
try to grant degrees to women. Experience has
justified the school’s belief in coeducation as
the most natural preparation for normal, hap­
py adult living.
Every possible effort has been made to pro­
vide an excellent physical plant, a challenging
class program, and encouraging guidance for
the student at Kents Hill. It is the student’s
privilege to take advantage of all the school
offers.

Many an alumnus looks back at his days at
Kents Hill as the happiest of his life. Whether
your time spent here will be as happy and pro­
ductive as possible will depend greatly on the
associations you form with other students,
with the faculty, with all the people with whom
you live and work and play at Kents Hill. In
order that those associations may be estab­
lished as quickly and lastingly as possible, this
handbook is created. A careful study of it will
indicate what the school offers the student and
what the student’s obligations are in return.
A thorough familiarity with the traditions and
regulations is expected of every student, and
he is held responsible for carrying them out in
good faith.

�SOME KENTS HILL TRADITIONS

The keynote at
Kents Hill is one
of courtesy and
consideration for
each other at all
times.
Students are en­
couraged to attend
all athletic con­
tests, plays, enter­
tainments, and so­
cial occasions unless regular school appoint­
ments prevent.

Happy Birthday! On each student’s birthday
he is serenaded by the entire dining hall and
is entertained with his corridor members at a
birthday party at the Headmaster’s home.
Each athletic season ends with a sports ban­
quet when awards are made by the coaches.

Rousing rallies before games get teams and
student body in a winning mood. The tower
bell is rung with enthusiasm by members of a
winning team.

Homecoming Day is an annual fall event
when the welcome mat is out for the alumni,
parents and friends. Sporting events, a buffet
luncheon at the dorm and an evening enter­
tainment round out a full day for our guests.
8

�During each school season the Headmaster
may declare a surprise school holiday at chapel
time. A cook-out is usually enjoyed at the
Outing Club cabin on Lovejoy Pond.

In fine spring and fall weather, Saturday
noon lunch and Sunday supper are enjoyed
about the fireplace at the picnic ground on the
back of the campus.
A program of Christmas music by the school
choir features the Christmas Vesper Service
which is held at the village church.

During the Christmas season and on Sunday
music from the Bearce Hall tower music sys­
tem is enjoyed by the school and community.

Formal dances held during the year are the
Christmas Ball, the Snow Ball at which the
Winter* Carnival King and Queen reign, and
the Commencement Ball.

Each spring certain senior privileges are
granted to the outgoing class.
A tradition of hospitality is fostered at
Kents Hill. Each person on campus considers
himself a host, friendly and helpful to visitors.

Hill are greeted at the close of their introduc­
tion by the applause of the student body stand­
ing.
Various formal and informal dances, teas,

pected to remain until the close of graduation
exercises and be checked out of the dormitory
after graduation. Each student who is not a
senior is given a definite assignment over the
week end.
HOW TO STUDY
Take an interest in your work because it
is your work. Consider that all instruc­
tion that goes on in class is your business
and should receive your full attention.
2. Pay attention to your instructor’s re­
marks. They are to explain or supple­
ment material in the course. Take notes
and keep them, both on what the teacher
says, and on approved remarks of the
students.
3. Take part in the discussion, not only
orally, but silently. That is, formulate an
answer to every question asked, whether
26

�you are called on or
not, and note how
near you came to a
correct and complete
answer in terms of
the discussion.
___
If there is some­
thing to add, take
the trouble to volun­
teer your informa­
tion or idea. If you
Ol
disagree or misunderstand, ask courteously for explanation or proof.
4. Take down all assignments exactly, keep­
ing all those for a given course together
in a notebook so they will be available for
review. Keep all written material.
5. Prepare homework as assigned. Pass it
in on time. Be thorough, be businesslike,
study with method, make your effort the
best. Outlining, summarizing, marking
important passages in your text all help
you to master material thoroughly and
review it readily.

7. Do extra work besides your assignment,
either to help you understand the funda­
mentals of the subject or to broaden your
acquaintance with it. Make use of the
library.

Ask extra help of your instructor, or dis­
cuss points of interest about which you
have a question to ask or a contribution
to make.
Review the previous work before going
on with the advanced assignment.
Find time to put first things first. There
are frequently occasions when other in­
terests should be sacrificed for extra
study.

Late students should obtain a class admission
slip from the office. Grades should be obtained
from the office only during study periods by
permission of the study hall teacher.

PERMISSION TO ENTER CLASS AFTER

tendance officer to be signed. On re-entering

gram varies. Prompt attendance and quiet,
dignified behavior are requested at chapel
exercises.

The library is open on school days
gtu_
to 12:36 P.M.; and from 1:45 to 2:45 P. •
dents should go to the library at t e s ai
the period and remain until the end. A peimi
sion slip for use of the library during c ass
hours should be obtained from subject teacheis
and taken to the study hall teacher who signs
it. The slip is then taken to the library by the
student and given to the librarian. Students
an the Effort Honor Roll, or on the Scholastic
Honor Roll may go to the library during free
periods without permission.
Day students
with honor roll privileges should use the study
hall or library during the free periods.

1:45-2:45 Use of the library for the full hour
is permitted to all students. They
should check out of the dormitory,
go to the library at the beginning
of the period, and remain until the
end.
The library is also open evenings through the
week from 7:00-9:30; on Saturday morning
during the 8:30-9:30 study hour; and on Sunday
afternoon between 2:00 and 4:00 without special
permission required.
BOOKSTORE REGULATIONS

classes start. Books, writing implements, school
paper, athletic equipment, toilet articles and
miscellaneous objects are for sale at the store.
Snacks are sold at chapel break. Bills on the

29

I-

i
II’

�bookstore accounts are sent home the first of
October, January, April and May. No charges
are accepted after May 1st.

SCHOOL BANK

For the convenience of students the school
offers banking facilities. It is highly recom­
mended that the
school bank be
used as it is not
advisable to carry
much
money
around or to leave
it in the rooms.
Checkbooks are is­
sued (75c each)
and the students
draw money as
they need it, unless
they are on a definite
allowance.
Students may cash
checks drawn on
either the school
bank or outside banks through the student
bank on Tuesdays and Fridays ONLY after
classes at 12:36 P.M.
■
It is suggested that students budget their
money. Having an amount which is to last un­
til a certain date, with the understanding that
no more will be available until that time comes,
is helpful in learning the value of money.
30

�I
!

In order to avoid the necessity of paying
cash for school trips, movies and other suc*
occasions, an entertainment ticket costing $7.5
may be obtained at the bookstore. A refund
for the unused portion of the ticket is made
at the end of the year.

The Maroon and Gray Key Society is an
honorary group elected by the students to

KENTS HILL ATHLETIC PROGRAM
In the belief that a healthy mind in a healthy
body is important to a good life, Kents Hill has
established an athletic program designed to
meet the needs of every individual.
All boarding students are required to par­
ticipate in some form of athletics each season.
Regardless of size, strength, or experience,
each student has a place in the athletic pro­
gram. Athletics are elective for day students
by arrangement with the school office.
The athletic plant is adequate for the use of
all, consisting of the gymnasium, two field

37

�houses, excellent baseball and softball dia­
monds, hockey rink, football gridiron, soccer
field, cinder track, eight tennis courts, and ski
facilities which consist of two 800-foot elec­
trically operated ski tows sei-vicing a 30-meter
jump, racing trail and slalom slope. Should
an injury occur to a player, a school doctor
on call, a well-supplied training room in the
gymnasium, and a resident school nurse are
available to answer his needs. Each sports
season is closed with a school banquet at
which awards are made.
Although academic credit for sports is not
given, each student receives a rating each term
on the effort grading sheet according to his
spirit, attitude, and contribution. Emphasis is
not placed upon ability, but rather on the man­
ner in which the student participates in his
chosen activity.

'arsity level, under competent, friendly, and

EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

activities is on a voluntary basis. Students

rants the expenditure of time necessary for
other activities, and should plan to participate
in them faithfully until completion for the
benefit of themselves and the school. Meetings
and rehearsals are held generally during the
activity period according to schedule.

�ij

paper, published periodically by an all-student
staff under the direction of faculty advisers,

costs. The Breeze is printed, containing edi­
torials by students and faculty members plus
student - written articles on feature news,
campus doings, dorm activities, numerous
anecdotes, and sports reviews, as well as
a number of cartoons and other artistic
“fillers.” Membership on the newspaper staff
is elective as an extracurricular activity by
students with journalistic interests.
Polaris is the senior yearbook. Application
for a staff position may be made to the faculty
committee by any senior. Appointments are
made with respect to individual qualifications.
Besides being a permanent record of the activi­
ties of the seniors, the Polaris also contains
a summary of the sports and other* extracur­
ricular activities of the whole school.
The Newsletter is a bulletin issued period­
ically by the office, distributed to the stu­
dent body, and sent to parents, friends, and
prospective students. The school takes this
means of acquainting others with its activities
and customs, of announcing honors in effort
and scholarship, of reporting sports results, and
generally presenting a clear picture of life at
Kents Hill. Schedules for each following month
are presented, including announcements of the
time of departure and arrival for vacations.

hearsals are held twice a week. The Christ­
mas Vesper Service and participation in the
Commencement Exercises are high points of
interest in the year’s program. The choir
takes part in joint concerts with other inde­
pendent schools and in the Maine Independent
School Music Festival. Popular music is fea­
tured in a variety of entertainments and
shows. Programs are provided occasionally
for several nearby service clubs.

rooms, lighting and scenic effects.
Any student with satisfactory scholastic
standing is eligible to volunteer to take part
in individual productions. There is no club
organization. The program is varied according
to current interest. It may include full-length
or one-act plays, excerpts from great dramas,
or original shows which give students a chance
to use their talents as actors, singers, musi­
cians, or dancers.
Faculty members are in charge of dramatics
activities. Rehearsals are held daily on school
days, and on Saturdays as needed during pro­
duction.
DER DEUTSCHE VEREIN

students during class hours for scholastic
credit.

artistic skills, to stimulate the student’s pride
in his work, and to encourage the constructive
use of leisure time. A contest in ceramics is

The location of the school among lakes and
hills, its nearness to mountains and coast make
it an ideal situation for outing club activities
at all seasons. A school-owned cabin on Love­

45

and overnight camping. Spring provides an
opportunity for white water canoeing and over­
night trips. In fall and spring, members enjoy
hiking trips to nearby mountains and State
parks.

slopes in this area.

nings. The fee for new members is $2.00 and
for old members, $1.00.

KENTS HILL HYMN
(Tune: MATERNA)
The fathers came and viewed this land,
These hills and valleys fair:
Its lakes, like precious gems, adorn
The landscape rich and rare:
Kents Hill, Kents Hill, the beautiful
Long may this vision stay
Of hills and dales and fertile fields
To cheer us on our way.

i i
! I

Kents Hill, Kents Hill, the masterful
To all who come and go
Implant thy spirit in our hearts
For conquests here below:
To thee, Kents Hill, we will be true,
Enchanted by thy lure,
Make good thy confidence in us
While fellowships endure.
—WILLIAM WOOD, ’92

�OUR ALMA MATER
(Tune: PALISADES)

Come gather ’round the halls of Kents Hill
So filled with mem’ry’s golden store;
You’ve nurtured loyal sons and daughters
E’en for a hundred years and more.
There ’mid the lakes and hills and pine trees,
We pledged devotion staunch and true;
That bond so firm will hold for ever,
We bare our heads to you.

’Twas there we made our closest friendships,
On that old campus up in Maine;
Though years have passed and we are severed,
Our hearts will always be the same.
With Gray and Crimson proudly waving,
In twilight’s shades or morning dew,
We’ll always love our Alma Mater,
Kents Hill, we sing to you.
And over all our mighty nation,
Proud sons and daughters praise thy name,
With loyal hearts and fond affection,
As some have soared to heights of fame.
Now with the future still before us,
What though the days be bright or blue,
From “Oldest Grad” to “Youngest Freshman,”
Kents Hill, we’re all for you.
—Adapted by Hannah Kimball, ’06

THE KENTS HILL SCHOOL SEAL
Kents Hill School was founded in 1824 under
the corporate name of Maine Wesleyan Semi­
nary. A few years before that time the foun­
der, Luther Sampson, travelled by horseback
from Massachusetts into the wilderness of
Maine to claim his due in a land grant as a
veteran of the Revolution. He had planned to
journey to the western part of the state, but
became inexplicably drawn to turn east.
Finally he dismounted and dropped to his
knees in prayer. Asking God to guide his path,
he remounted and continued his journey
toward the rising sun and eventually settled
at Kents Hill. Here he and his family lived for
many prosperous years. In gratitude to God
he opened a school in what is now the 1821
House to give opportunities in education to
the young people of the community. It was
called the Readfield Religious and Charitable
Society and in 1824 became Kents Hill School.
The seal depicts Luther Sampson travelling
east toward the rising sun. The translation of
the Latin motto is “God has shown the Way."

Read it carefully for it pro&amp;shy; vides the framework for all school activity. All that a school is and what is expected of its students can certainly not be placed in a directory. Ours is a democratic society that demands a great deal of the individual. Your school, much like your society, is what you make it. We encourage individual thought and initiative, but feel you must learn to play an active and re&amp;shy; sponsible role in the community. You will work, think and play together — this is simply an outline of campus life which requires your par&amp;shy; ticipation to make it purposeful and meaning&amp;shy; ful. Bring to it your spirit, your thoughts and your heart and its continued success is assured. Robert A. Chumbook, Headmaster Kents Hill School LIFE AT KENTS HILL Welcome to Kents Hill! May both you and the school be better for your having been here. As a student at Kents Hill, you become a member of a large group of people who have shared the experience of life at the school. They have made and lived by its traditions, and those traditions have been a molding in&amp;shy; fluence in their lives. Chartered in 1824, Kents Hill has made her way known through the lives of many genera&amp;shy; tions of her sons and daughters. As one of the 6 �first coeducational schools in the country, Kents Hill admitted girls in 1824, and in 1860 established the first college course in the coun&amp;shy; try to grant degrees to women. Experience has justified the school’s belief in coeducation as the most natural preparation for normal, hap&amp;shy; py adult living. Every possible effort has been made to pro&amp;shy; vide an excellent physical plant, a challenging class program, and encouraging guidance for the student at Kents Hill. It is the student’s privilege to take advantage of all the school offers. I * Many an alumnus looks back at his days at Kents Hill as the happiest of his life. Whether your time spent here will be as happy and pro&amp;shy; ductive as possible will depend greatly on the associations you form with other students, with the faculty, with all the people with whom you live and work and play at Kents Hill. In order that those associations may be estab&amp;shy; lished as quickly and lastingly as possible, this handbook is created. A careful study of it will indicate what the school offers the student and what the student’s obligations are in return. A thorough familiarity with the traditions and regulations is expected of every student, and he is held responsible for carrying them out in good faith. 7 �SOME KENTS HILL TRADITIONS The keynote at Kents Hill is one of courtesy and consideration for each other at all times. Students are en&amp;shy; couraged to attend all athletic con&amp;shy; tests, plays, enter&amp;shy; tainments, and so&amp;shy; cial occasions unless regular school appoint&amp;shy; ments prevent. Birthday parties are held in the Headmaster’s home once a month. This is a long standing Kents Hill tradition. Each athletic season ends with a sports ban&amp;shy; quet when awards are made by the coaches. Rousing rallies before games get teams and student body in a winning mood. The tower bell is rung with enthusiasm by members of a winning team. Homecoming Day is an annual fall event when the welcome mat is out for the alumni, parents and friends. Sporting events, a buffet luncheon at the dorm and an evening enter&amp;shy; tainment round out a full day for our guests. 8 �During each school season the Headmaster may declare a surprise school holiday at chapel time. A cook-out is usually enjoyed at the Outing Club cabin on Lovejoy Pond. In fine spring and fall weather, Saturday noon lunch and Sunday supper are enjoyed about the fireplace at the picnic ground on the back of the campus. A program of Christmas music by the school choir features the Christmas Vesper Service which is held at the village church. During the Christmas season music from the Bearce Hall tower music system is enjoyed by the school and community. Formal dances held during the year are the Christmas Ball, the Snow Ball at which the Winter Carnival King and Queen reign, and the Commencement Ball. &amp;lt; Each spring certain senior privileges are granted to the outgoing class. &amp;lt; A tradition of hospitality is fostered at Kents Hill. Each person on campus considers himself a host, friendly and helpful to visitors. 9 �THE PHYSICAL PLANT The campus buildings include Bearce F “ Hall, which houses classrooms and laboratories, the school offices, bookstore; Sampson Hall, which includes the girls’ and boys’ dormitories and dining room; Wesleyan Hall, the younger boys’ dormitory, erected in 1960; new girls’ dormitory, erected in 1964; Ricker Hall, which houses the library, theater, study hall, music studio, class rooms, the historical room and the alumni office; the Newton Gymnasium, used for boys’ and girls’ athletics and as an audi&amp;shy; torium; Jollity Manse is used for infirmary, faculty and staff apartments; Chase Hall, which includes faculty apartments; Farwell Field House, completed in 1959, which provides a ski room and facilities for ice hockey, soccer, track and tennis; Blethen Hall, the residence of the headmaster; 1821 House, old original school building, now a faculty residence; girls’ field house, completed in 1963, which provides a ski room and facilities for all girls’ ath&amp;shy; letics. The 50-acre campus provides ample space for an eight-lap cinder track, football field, baseball field, softball and field hockey field, ice hockey rink, eight all-weather tennis courts, soccer and lacrosse fields and a picnic area with fireplace. The school property also includes the Outing Club Cabin on Lovejoy Pond and the ski area on Torsey Pond with ski jumps, downhill and slalom slopes, and two ski tows. 10 �to □ gB jar ::s.i Ina III n 0 9 L_ CAMPUS BOUNDS Life at Kents Hill is centered in our own campus activities, and students do not leave the campus without special permission except to go to the Post Office or Torsey View House at specified times. Boys and girls may walk together on the front campus as far as the Post Office. When leaving the campus or attending some function on campus at which universal attendance is not required, students should sign out or check out according to the dormitory regulations (see page 13). The time for girls to be in the dormitory changes seasonally and is posted. Students should not be in Bearce or Ricker Halls except for class, extracurricular or other regularly approved appointments. Students should not visit other dormitories than their own without permission from those in charge of both. 11 �POST OFFICE AND BOOKSTORE Students may go to the Post Office during morning break or after classes and at any time during the day when they have free time. See special privileges of Effort and Scholastic Honor Roll students on pp. 31-32. Snacks may be purchased and eaten at the bookstore in Bearce Hall basement. Students who have earned the privilege may visit campus bookstore during free periods. HOURS FOR TORSEY VIEW HOUSE The Torsey View House- in the village, run by Mrs. Mary Schultze, serves refreshment^ Students may go there at the following times: zSunday from 9:30 to 10:45 A.AL and from 2:00 to 4:30 P.M. when no school appointments prevent... / / / / / Only senior students with permission to smbkc at school will be allowed to smoke at Torsey Vi^v House. &amp;lt; 12 5 �DORMITORY CHECK-OUT SYSTEM Students are required to sign out in the book placed on the desk in the first floor corridor when leaving the campus. In signing out, the student should give exact destination, time of leaving the dormitory, and time of return. Stu&amp;shy; dents should sign out for themselves only, using their last name and first initial if necessary for identification. When leaving the dormitory during activity period or at other times to attend a function on campus, students will sign out in their cor&amp;shy; ridor book. It is not necessary to sign out for any func&amp;shy; tion at which attendance by all students is required. PERMISSION TO LEAVE BOUNDS AND WEEKEND PERMISSIONS One automatic weekend is allowed each stu&amp;shy; dent each trimester. No weekend is permitted for students on teams when games are scheduled, but two short weekends may be taken after games to substitute for a long weekend.

That is, formulate an answer to every question asked, whethei 3. 26 4 1 �you are called on or not, and note how near you came to a correct and complete answer in terms of the discussion. If there is some&amp;shy; thing to add, take the trouble to volun&amp;shy; teer your informa&amp;shy; tion or idea. If you disagree or misun&amp;shy; derstand, ask courteously for explana&amp;shy; tion or proof. 4. Take down all assignments exactly, keep&amp;shy; ing all those for a given course together in a notebook so they will be available for review. Keep all written material. 5. Prepare homework as assigned. Pass it in on time. Be thorough, be businesslike, study with method, make your effort the best. Outlining, summarizing, marking important passages in your text all help you to master material thoroughly and review it readily. G. If you have missed an assignment be&amp;shy; cause of absence, on the day of your re&amp;shy; turn inquire of your teacher the earliest time when it may be made up. 7. Do extra work besides your assignment, either to help you understand the funda&amp;shy; mentals of the subject or to broaden your acquaintance with it. Make use of the library. 27 3® I 7 �8. 9. 10.

Kents Hill, Kents Hill, the masterful To all who come and go Implant thy spirit in our hearts For conquests here below: To thee, Kents Hill, we will be true, Enchanted by thy lure, Make good thy confidence in us While fellowships endure. —WILLIAM WOOD, ’92 62 �OUR ALMA MATER (Tune: PALISADES) Come gather ’round the halls of Kents Hill So filled with mem’ry’s golden store; You’ve nurtured loyal sons and daughters E’en for a hundred years and more. There ’mid the lakes and hills and pine trees, We pledged devotion staunch and true; That bond so firm will hold for ever, We bare our heads to you. ’Twas there we made our closest friendships, On that old campus up in Maine; Though years have passed and we are severed, Our hearts will always be the same. With Gray and Crimson proudly waving, In twilight’s shades or morning dew, We’ll always love our Alma Mater, Kents Hill, we sing to you. And over all our mighty nation, Proud sons and daughters praise thy name, With loyal hearts and fond affection, As some have soared to heights of fame. Now with the future still before us, What though the days be bright or blue, From “Oldest Grad” to “Youngest Freshman,” Kents Hill, we’re all for you. —Adapted by Hannah Kimball, ’06 63 �THE KENTS HILL SCHOOL SEAL Kents Hill School was founded in 1824 under the corporate name of Maine Wesleyan Semi&amp;shy; nary. A few years before that time the foun&amp;shy; der, Luther Sampson, travelled by horseback from Massachusetts into the wilderness of Maine to claim his due in a land grant as a veteran of the Revolution. He had planned to journey to the western part of the state, but became inexplicably drawn to turn east. Finally he dismounted and dropped to his knees in prayer. Asking God to guide his path, he remounted and continued his journey toward the rising sun and eventually settled at Kents Hill. Here he and his family lived for many prosperous years. In gratitude to God he opened a school in what is now the 1821 House to give opportunities in education to the young people of the community. It was called the Readfield Religious and Charitable Society and in 1824 became Kents Hill School. The seal depicts Luther Sampson travelling east toward the rising sun. The translation of the Latin motto is “God has shown the Way. �KOTS HILL SCHOOL r. 5 rr rr acont Handbook 18664967</text>

��FOREWORD

■

I

Edwin Ruthven French was born at South Chesterville,
Maine, December 13, 1828. He attended Kent’s Hill as a
student from 1847 to 1850, and from the time of his gradua­
tion to the time of his death on December 5, 1912, he devoted
the major part of his life to the interests of the School. As
a teacher in 1850 and 1851, as a member of the Board of
Trustees from 1873 to the time of his death, as Steward from
1882 to 1890, as a member of the Prudential Committee from
1891 to 1904, and as Secretary of the Board of Trustees from
1891 to the end, he was always thinking, planning and work­
ing for Kent’s Hill.
Moreover, in this work for the School he did not lose
sight of his duty to the community. He was lay preacher,
doctor, lawyer, justice of the peace, student, farmer, trusted
adviser and sincere friend. Called upon to preach or to
attend the sick, as was often the case, he invariably responded
gladly, although in many instances the response required him
to travel miles in rain or snow. He sought no high honors,
but thought most of doing the work at hand. A rare blessing
to the community, he still lives in the hearts of his friends as
a fine example of what an unselfish heart and an enlightened
mind can do toward making life brighter and more livable.
The following history represents a labor of love. It was
written by him from a store of knowledge and lore of Kent's
Hill gained by his sixty-five years of intimate acquaintance
with the School. Probably no one living possessed similar
qualifications for writing such a history.

�PREFACE
Progress is not an accident. The Creator does not work
alone. In every age, in the secret chambers of thought, deep,
far-seeing plans are laid that become the foundations of future
events.
God chooses from among the militant forces at His
command those who are to carry forward His work. Across
the broad seal of their commission is written the single word,
“sent.” They are so like their fellows of the common lot
that they emerge from the walks of life unknown and
unheralded, till the consummation of the event of their life
reveals their identity. The gaping crowd wonders whence
came their power, who planned their work, and when they
cannot answer, disbelieves; but the coming time, with its
backward look and broader sweep, applauds.
Humanity is coming to its own. Sometime its wants
will be met. It may be a long time, but the God of the whole
earth is in His heavens, and the longings of the hungry, the
toiling of the millions, will avail; the day of the Lord will be
at hand.

�CHAPTER I

Luther Sampson

i

(if

ii
n

March 25, 1760, there was born in the town of Duxbury,
Massachusetts, a boy destined to a varied career and the
founding of an institution that was to have much to do with
molding the character of the rising generations that came
within the pale of its influence; and, through them, the bene­
fiting of many lands and the remotest time. Before he was
sixteen he joined the Revolutionary forces of his country and
continued in the service at different times for three years.
He was a carpenter by trade. In 1783, he married and
settled in Marshfield, Massachusetts. To them were born
five children, a son and four daughters.
He received from the Government an assignment of land
for his services in the army, which, together with his earnings
at his trade, gave him a fair start in life. He was of that old
pioneer stock that had had so much to do with shaping New
England character, and the severe puritanical ideas of the
times were deep rooted in congenial soil.
In 1798 Mr. Sampson left his home in Marshfield on a
trip of exploration, intending to locate on the Hudson River.
He had not proceeded far when he felt a strange inclination to
go in the other direction; so much so that coming to a wood,
he dismounted, hitched his horse, and turning aside into the
grove he sought divine direction in prayer, and there deter­
mined that when he reached the next forks of the road, if his
mind was still drawn eastward, he would let his horse choose
the way. He remounted, gave his horse the reins, and soon
found himself journeying toward the rising, instead of the
setting sun. He continued his eastward travel till he reached
the locality now known as Kent’s Hill, in the town of Read­
field, in the then Province of Maine. Here he located a tract
of two hundred and fifty acres of land and returned to his
Marshfield home.

�6

It would be most interesting if we knew of the incidents
of that journey, and what led him across Massachusetts and
New Hampshire, on into the wilds of Maine, and induced him
to locate in this particular spot. He was not a first settler;
the Kents—Warren, at least—were there before him. Starling
Plantation to the West began to be settled more than ten
years before, and Isaac Ford, of Marshfield, likewise, had
taken up the mill privilege at Fayette Mills. This latter fact
may have been a determining feature in Mr. Sampson’s
choice. The first house built on Kent’s Hill is said to have
stood back from the main road on the west side of Will
Thompson’s west field, later a part of the Waugh farm.
The next year, 1799, Mr. Sampson moved his family onto
his farm and with the assistance of his son, then sixteen years
old, erected suitable buildings for their protection.
Soon after his coming to Kent’s Hill, by the death of a
relative, he fell heir to two thousand dollars, which sum,
together with his other accumulations and holdings, made
him a “fore-handed” man for his times. He was shrewd in
his dealings, and was accounted a man of rare good judgment
in business affairs. His opportunities for education had been
limited, but he had improved what he had and his natural
abilities enabled him to detect the want of it in others, as well
as in himself. It is said the inability of the young preachers
who came among the people to read with proper emphasis
their Scripture lessons and hymns distressed him greatly.
He set himself to devise ways and means to lessen these
deficiencies and improve social conditions around him. His
first efforts were directed to the supply of regular preaching
of the Gospel on Kent’s Hill; the lengthening of the terms of
the district school; the giving of aid to struggling Methodist
Societies; providing for support of worn-out preachers, and
helping the needy generally.
It is not to be presumed that conditions around him were
inferior to those of pioneer communities generally,—rather
the contrary, if we are to judge from what develops later. A
meeting house was in process of construction; the district
school and a circulating library well under way.

CHAPTER II
Readfield Religious and Charitable Society
In 1820, Mr. Sampson interested some of his fellow­
townsmen to associate themselves with him for the before­
named purposes, and at the first session of the Maine Legis­
lature, in 1821, Luther Sampson, Charles Kent, John Hub­
bard, Abraham Morrill, Zechariah Gibson and John Morrison
were incorporated Trustees of the Readfield Religious and
Charitable Society.

“In the House of Representatives this Bill passed to be
enacted, February 26, 1821.
Benjamin Ames, Speaker.

In the Senate, finally passed, February 27, 1821.
Wm. D. Williamson, President.
Approved by the Governor, February 28, 1821.
Wm. King.

Secretary of State’s Office, Portland, March 5, 1821.
A true copy. Attest, Ashur Ware,
Secretary of State.”
The Province of Maine was set off from Massachusetts
in 1820. This act of incorporation, therefore, must have been
one of the first legislative acts passed upon by the Legislature.
Mr. Sampson’s knowledge of conditions in his native State
probably had much to do with it.
The act of incorporation provided that the Trustees
should be members of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the
town of Readfield, but if there were no members of said Church
in or near said town suitable for trustees, then some pious
person not a member of the church should be chosen Trustee
that the number remain at six.
The Trustees were authorized to hold property, real and
personal, the income of which should not exceed three thou­
sand dollars annually.
A gift of five thousand dollars by any one person entitled
the donor to appoint an additional Trustee, without regard

�8

to church membership. The liberality of these provisions
placed the objects of the endowment above sectarian con­
siderations.
The Board was organized the first Monday of June, 1821,
by choosing
President.
John Hubbard,
Secretary.
Zechariah Gibson,
Treasurer.
Luther Sampson,
A set of By-laws governing the Board were presented and
accepted at this meeting.
There is no record of any operations of the Society the
first year of its existence. No funds had been provided.
At a special meeting of the Board, April 29, 1822, Luther
Sampson delivered to the Trustees a deed, elaborately drawn,
conveying to them three parcels of land, real estate to the
amount of two hundred acres of land and buildings, valued at
four thousand five hundred dollars.
Accompanying this deed and attached thereto was an
instrument equally specific as to the purposes of the gift and
how it should be applied; an inventory of personal property
to the amount of five thousand five hundred dollars, making
the benefaction a gross sum of ten thousand dollars.
These two papers reveal a familiarity with legal forms
and a minuteness of detail truly wonderful in one not trained
in the intricacies of the law. It is doubtful if a superior exists
for the disposition of property in the archives of County or
State. It was expressly provided that there should be no
“strip” or “waste” of land values, and that personal property
that disappeared should be faithfully restored and handed
down to each succession intact.
For an intelligent understanding of the nature and
availability of Mr. Sampson’s gift, we give a resume of the
properties constituting it.
Real Estate: The farm of one hundred and forty acres
of land on Kent’s Hill, with the new house and two barns
thereon, and other buildings; the pasture in Wayne of fortyfive acres; the house and lot adjoining the Meeting House lot,
of one and one-eighth acres; the whole of the value of four
thousand five hundred dollars (§4,500.00).

�9

This was divided into three tenements:
The 1st Tenement consisted of about seven acres in the
southeast corner of the main road and the North Wayne road,
to which was assigned the personal of the first schedule,
amounting to $33.38.

The 2nd Tenement, about five acres adjoining the Meeting
House, and the sum of $176.00.
The 3rd Tenement, the farm proper, with the Wayne
pasture; except that the occupants of the first and second
tenements were to have their fire-wood from it, and four
acres to be reserved for a Camp Ground. To this tenement
was assigned the personal of the third schedule, equal to
$905.85.
The personal property was itemized in seven schedules,
of amounts as follows:

1st Schedule, eight sheep and lambs, S10; cow and calf,
$20; sundries, $3.38: $33.38.
2nd Schedule, eight sheep and lambs, $10; cow and calf,
$20; house furnishings, $26.38; beds and bed linen, $39.62;
Bl. Shop, $80: $176.00.
3rd Schedule, two hundred sheep and lambs, $450; one
yoke of oxen, $73; three cows with calves, $60; two hogs, $12;
eighteen bushels corn, twelve of wheat, $27.50; seed corn and
wheat and rye, $13.38; peas and oats, $15.12; potatoes, $7.50;
grass seed, $5.37; provisions, etc., $19.38; cart wheels and
carts, $43; plows, harrows, chains and iron, harnesses, etc.,
$64.05; shovels, hoes, scythes and sleds, $36.33; cord wood
and hay, $39; other farm implements, $43.22; making the
whole outfit for farm $905.85.

4th Schedule, furniture and furnishings in west part of
new house for his daughters, $97.38.
5th Schedule, Bible, hymn books and communion set,
$18.50; blank book, $4; stove and other furniture for Meeting
House, $34.61: $57.11.
6th Schedule, Clarke’s Commentaries, $47; other books
for library, $78.31: $125.31.

�10

7th Schedule, notes and securities, with interest due,
secured, $3,136.60; cash to balance sum donated, $968.37:
$4,104.97.
Making a total of personal, $5,500.00.
On the acceptance of this deed of trust by the Trustees,
Mr. Sampson appointed his son, David Ford Sampson, addi­
tional Trustee, and it was stipulated therein that his. family
should be thus represented on the Board forever by some
nearest of kin, or someone chosen to represent them.
After repeated adjournments, the annual meeting of
1823 was held March 11 th, at which time the first move was
made to use the funds in the hands of the Trustees for chari­
table and religious purposes by a tentative agreement with
Eliakim Scamman to supply preaching at Kent’s Hill. Mr.
Sampson, as Treasurer, presented a bill for $340, which was
allowed, presumably for aid to the Meeting House, provision
for which was made in his instrument to the amount of $345.
In considering Mr. Sampson’s gift as a whole, from what
sources its incomes were to be derived, the amount of the
benefactions yearly required, it is difficult to see how all its
terms could be met by a Board of Trustees thus constituted
and governed by iron bound restrictions. Fortunately for
the Board, Mr. Sampson was their Treasurer for the first
three years and managed the property with the same shrewd­
ness that he had ever been used to do in the management of
his affairs. One thing is evident, no one who succeeded him
in the office of Treasurer was able to keep pace with him in
financial acuteness.
Important changes are impending this year. Mr. Samp­
son is thinking. There has come to him a conception of
greater possibilities, and he is intent on seizing them.

CHAPTER III
Elihu Robinson

In 1820, Elihu Robinson, of Augusta, a carpenter by
trade, moved by the lack of opportunities for an education
that came to the young men around him, especially those who
were looking to the Gospel ministry, opened a school in his

�11

own house, having teachers to give instruction. His wife
attended to the household affairs, and was a mother in Israel
to her house.
Mr. Sampson heard of this school, and forthwith visited
it. Here was a man without means, doing what he, in a
lesser way, had thought to do with means. His vision
broadened. Was it not possible to combine these two
instrumentalities, he pondered?
During the season of 1823, Mr. Sampson had repeated
interviews with Mr. Robinson, and induced him to move his
school to Kent’s Hill. Meanwhile, he set himself about
adjusting the affairs of his Board to meet the changed condi­
tions. An outlay of six hundred dollars, or more, was required
by the original instrument, which absorbed all the income
under the most favorable circumstances.
The annual meeting of 1824 was called for January 6th,
at which time only routine business was attended to and an
adjournment taken to the 27th inst. The Trustees met, and,
without transacting any business, adjourned to the next
morning. At this time Mr. Sampson presented a new instru­
ment, modifying former conditions as to the bestowal of his
charities, eliminating some and reducing the amount of
others. This paper was duly executed, and accepted by the
Trustees. A committee was raised to attend immediately to
providing for the intended school and to report at the next
meeting, and adjournment was taken to February 17th.
CHAPTER IV

The New School

Mr. Sampson’s new deed, or instrument, provides that
when certain conditions therein named are met, “the remain­
der of said property shall be appropriated to the establish­
ment, and for the benefit and support of, a school, to be
located on the premises in Readfield for the purpose of afford­
ing instruction to youth in the principles of Experimental
Christian Religion, Theology’, Literature," in a practical
knowledge of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts.”

�12

Here is a University for the common people! I doubt if
you can find an older one in the country.
On the acceptance of this new paper, Luther Sampson
retired from the Board of Trustees, and Elihu Robinson was
elected in his place and was also made chairman of the Super­
intending Committee. At the adjournment, February 17th,
the plan and report of the committee was accepted, and on
the 27th of February, 1824, Mr. Robinson formally opened
his school in the new house,—now known as the Little
Mansion. We have no account of whom his teachers were,
but presume he conducted it along the same lines as heretofore.
At a special meeting, March 22nd, a committee was
chosen to provide a school house. This was done by buying
of Mr. Sampson the old house he had reserved in his deed
and fitting it up for a school room.
In 1869, when repairing the Mansion, Albert Wheelock,
standing in the back door of the house, pointed to what had
been for years the woodhouse of the “New House,” saying:
“That was the first school building and it stood down there,”
pointing as he spoke to a spot a little to the southwest of the
Mansion. “I was one of the scholars.” There were two
rooms in the upper part of it fitted up for scholars who
boarded themselves, known to students of a later day as
“Oregon.”
Mr. Robinson held a close and important relation to the
school for the first year, not only as its Supervisor, but being
in charge of what was known as the “first tenement,” which
had been cleared of all incumbrances that its income might
be devoted to the school.
The financial situation was cleared up by effecting settle­
ments with those indebted to the corporation and reducing
the charities to less than one-fourth.
This meeting was adjourned to May 10th, at which time
a committee was chosen, consisting of Elihu Robinson, Moses
Springer, Jr., and Moses Stone, to mature a plan for a new
school house. It reported the next day “that it is expedient
to build a School House of brick; that such a building would
cost two thousand dollars;” and recommended measures
whereby funds might be raised to erect it.

�y

13

This report was accepted. Likewise a vote was passed
to petition the Legislature for a change of name and to increase
the number of Trustees to twenty. The name proposed was
The Maine Methodist Educational Society. A committee
was also appointed to address the Maine Conference at its
next annual session in favor of the interests of the Institution.
It is evident from these movements that the school was
exceeding its limits, and that its possibilities began to loom
up before the public and those who were more intimately con­
nected with its administration.
An incident occurred at this meeting worthy of more
than a passing notice. Mr. Sampson had practically retired
from an active part in the affairs of this new enterprise, but
kept a watchful eye on every movement. He had sent a
letter to the Trustees which they saw fit to raise a committee
to reply to, but which committee, after an interview with him,
asked to be discharged without the formality of a report.
The letter was pigeon-holed. It was understood privately
that Mr. Sampson was not pleased with some of the measures
and methods of the Trustees, and took this means to call
their attention to the importance of their trust and their
obligations to him.
At a subsequent meeting, August 16th, the Superintend­
ing Committee were authorized to proceed with the erection
of the school building according to the plan recommended by
them. This they did forthwith. Circumstances demanded
it; the school had outgrown itself, and the demand for its
privileges and opportunites was growing.
Again a special meeting is called for December 29th,
when the progress of the Building Committee is approved and
their accounts audited.
The votes of a previous meeting with regard to a change
of name and increase of the number of the Trustees were
reconsidered, and a vote passed for a new act of incorporation
changing the name to “Maine Wesleyan Seminary” and the
number of Trustees to twenty-five.
Up to this time the school had evidently been conducted
according to Mr. Robinson’s method, but at this meeting a
committee was appointed to secure an instructor. There is

�14

no report of the doings of this committee, but it is known that
Asa H. Thompson, of Industry, was chosen Principal, but
died before taking charge, and Rev. Henry Cushman was
engaged for the Spring term.
At the next meeting of the Legislature, January, 1825,
an act additional to the act of incorporation was passed, and
approved by the Governor, Albion K. Parris, February 23,
1825. This act makes the number of Trustees twenty-five
and changes the name to “Maine Wesleyan Seminary.”

CHAPTER V
Maine Wesleyan Seminary

The foregoing legislative act was received at a meeting
of the Trustees, February 23, 1825, and accepted by them.
The first school year is closed and plans are maturing for
the future. Construction of the Seminary Building is
progressing favorably, but we are not advised how the plan
for raising the money for it, viz.: that a three-years loan of
five hundred dollars at six per cent be raised; that the fifteen
hundred additional be divided into shares of one hundred
each, to be subscribed for by friends, who are to be reimbursed
when the institution is in funds—this latter practically a
donation, has succeeded. The loan was raised.
This meeting was continued to March 16th, when the
business of the annual meeting was completed and an execu­
tive committee added, who were to have the general super­
intendency of all the affairs of the institution,—now known
as the Prudential Committee. A further continuance was
had to the 22nd, when a conference was sought with Mr.
Sampson as to present conditions. As a result of this con­
ference a committee was chosen to make a new draft of the
instrument limiting the objects and sums to which Mr. Samp­
son’s donation should be applied, which should be the basis
of future action forever.
In this pact the Trustees covenant with Luther Sampson
that the amount of his endowment shall be and remain ten
thousand dollars; and if, by reason of depreciation of value,

�15

it shall at any time fall below that sum, the incomes arising
from it shall be applied till the original amount is made good.
And in order to make more plain the intent and purposes
of said Trustees and said Sampson, it is agreed that the
government of this Institution shall be established on the
same principles as that of Bowdoin College, and the same
rules and restrictions apply to its permanent fund as to that;
and when these requirements are complied with by the
Trustees, Mr. Sampson on his part exonerates the Trustees
from all errors and deficiences on their part and relieves them
from maintenance of preaching at Kent’s Hill, except supply.
The report of this committee was not accepted till a
subsequent meeting, October 12th, nor finally concurred in
till December 28th. This meeting, however, was of much
importance as mapping out the future course of the school,
and included two days’ work.
The enlargement of the Board of Trustees was begun;
the Superintending Committee were authorized to set up a
“Female School;” the price of board and tuition was fixed;
an address to the public accepted, to be published in Zion’s
Herald.
What do we of the present day think of the charges of
that day, who pay for a single meal as much or more than was
expected for a week’s board?
25 cts. per week.

“The children of the Traveling Preachers to be received

Is it any wonder that the poor boys and girls starving for
an education such as this school was to afford, flocked to its
doors? Would that there were the same inducements now!

�16

CHAPTER VI
Zenas Caldwell’s Administration

Zenas Caldwell was made Principal and took charge of
the school September, 1825. He was a graduate of Bowdoin
College, and he together with his brother Merritt were said to
be the first Methodist boys to graduate from college in the
State. Thank God, they were not the last! We shall hear
of them more. They were sons of a great mother. Why can
there not be more of them in the earth, that a nobler race of
men may people it? They are coming, sometime.
Mr. Caldwell’s management of the school was com­
mended from the beginning. At the meeting of Trustees
October 12th, he was made a Trustee and Chairman of the
Superintending Committee.
The report of the committee on new instrument was
made and accepted, and an additional instructor authorized
whenever thought necessary. This is an evidence of the
increasing popularity of the school; or, it may have been seen
thus early wise to conserve the physical powers of the Princi­
pal. We incline to the former opinion, as the records bear
evidence that the Trustees were not slow to promote him to
responsible places.
The agreement between the Trustees and Mr. Sampson
for a change in the conditions of the deed was completed at
the annual meeting December 28, 1825, by the formal execu­
tion of the pact entered into. Mr. Sampson absolutely
declines to be considered a Trustee any longer, and the
Trustees feel constrained to grant his request.
Arrangements for the coming term were made by con­
tinuing Zenas Caldwell, Principal, and providing for issuing
what was probably the first circular, or prospectus, giving
information as to its courses of study, length of terms and
vacations, that the Seminary ever sent out.
The proper management of the farm was one of the most
difficult things that Trustees had to contend with in those
early days, and as to that matter, has always been so. When,
therefore, at an adjournment of this meeting, February 12,

�17

1826, Elihu Robinson presented the name of Wager Besse and
his wife to have charge of “all concerns,” there was evident
relief and speedy acceptance.
At a further continuance of the meeting to May 2nd, a
committee, of which Zenas Caldwell was chairman, was raised
to carry into effect the late agreement with Luther Sampson,
by framing a code of “rules and regulations” for the govern­
ment of the school, after the manner of Bowdoin College.
Thus early the Institution was seeking to place itself on a
high plane of educational efficiency. That much of this was
due to the leadership of Zenas Caldwell cannot be doubted.
A movement was made at this time also for providing for
a Manual Labor Department, want of funds alone checking it.
The one great lack is the lack of funds. Again the Conference
is to be appealed to. The affairs of the farm, at one time so
hopeful, are again at a stand-still, and the offer is made to
Mr. Sampson to pay his expenses if he will find a suitable man
to carry it on. It must be remembered that the farm was
practically new land; stumps and stones not all removed; not
an inviting field of operations.
During the summer vacation, 1826, the Trustees met
August 29th and were in session three days. The financial
situation was the burden of their desire. The Treasurer had
succeeded in selling the Dr. Hubbard property for $2,300, but
the pay was in promissory notes and time loans. The dormi­
tory was in want of beds and bedding; the expediency of
begging for it was considered. A committee was chosen to
raise $2,500 by one hundred subscriptions of twenty-five
dollars each.
Elihu Robinson, who had had charge of the farming
operations, was relieved from that duty and later put in
charge of the Mechanical Department. Zenas Caldwell was
continued Principal, and an assistant instructor authorized.
The Superintending Committee were directed “to finish the
Preceptor's room in a decent manner.”
Rev. Asa Heath was appointed "to solicit donations and
form societies through the State as he may think proper,”—
what societies the record docs not reveal. He was to have
ten per cent of the donations as pay for his services.

�18

Zenas Caldwell assumed the charge of the fall term, 1826,
but a shadow was creeping over the prospects of the Seminary.
The great white plague was claiming a victim, and the Princi­
pal’s failing health obliged him to relinquish his duties and
retire to his home in Hebron, Maine, where he died, December
21, aged 26. He died too soon. Charge not to God Almighty
the loss of undeveloped years, the crushed hopes of early man­
hood and the vanishing of spheres of usefulness. He planned
it not, but one ignorant of His immutable, unchanging laws
interfered with their execution.
There is no reference in the records as to who was Mr.
Caldwell’s assistant, or who was in charge on his retirement,
or even a reference to his death, a strange omission, it seems
to me. I have an impression, or an intimation derived from
some source, that Merritt Caldwell, brother to Zenas, at that
time a student at Bowdoin College, came to the rescue on the
retirement of his brother, for the remainder of the term.
December 27th, 1826, the annual meeting was held and
the Secretary directed to inform Joshua Randall, of Dixfield,
that the Trustees will employ him for one term on the condi­
tion he proposed,—perhaps longer. The language of this
vote implies that they had been in conference with him, and
it may be that he had been assistant to Zenas Caldwell, or had
had to do with the finishing out of the term.
At the adjournment of this meeting to February, 1827, it
was voted that Asa Heath continue his agency, and that the
Bishop presiding at the next annual conference be requested
to appoint one of the Traveling Preachers to collect funds for
Maine Wesleyan Seminary.
The Superintending Committee were authorized to
employ as many students at labor as was practicable.
It is evident from what the records disclose that the
popularity of the school was abroad, and that there were more
applications for its advantages than it could accommodate.
It was an open door to the common people; its advantages for
instruction unexcelled.
This meeting is further continued to March 7th, when a
formal vote of thanks is tendered to Mr. Sampson by the
following resolve. “Resolved: That the Board of Trustees

�19

tender their thanks to our brother, Luther Sampson, for his
laborious services, and that he be requested to continue them
to this institution.”
The reports of committees entrusted with the funds of
the institution are more satisfactory. A half township of
land had been granted by the Legislature, which was yet to
be disposed of.
The committee having charge was directed to procure
the frame for the shop and set as many boys at work on it as
could be employed. Dudley Moody becomes general agent,
or steward, and Elihu Robinson has charge of the mechanical
department. These departments of manual labor were
extremely popular with the public, but exceedingly unprofit­
able to the institution, because of the poor quality of the
work, whether on farm or in shop. Students could not be
induced to remain long enough at a trade to master it.
CHAPTER VI
Course of Study Established

A meeting of the Trustees largely devoted to internal
affairs was held August 9th. A large committee was raised
to canvass for a Library, and another to draw up a course of
study to go into operation in the spring term.
This meeting was continued to November 28th, when the
committee reported. It seems that this plan was subse­
quently lost, but tuition in languages and higher studies was
fixed at 37Xc. Merritt Caldwell and William C. Larrabee,
students in Bowdoin College, were in charge during this fall
term.
At this point in the records it is disclosed that at the
meeting of the Legislature of 1827 the committee who had in
charge the plan of government for the Seminary after the form
of Bowdoin College obtained an act constituting Abraham
Morrill, Obed Wilson, James B. Cahoon, Allen H. Cobb,
Thomas Dodge, Joshua Taylor and David Kilburn, together
with the President and Secretary of the Board, a Board of
Overseers of the Maine Wesleyan Seminary. These met and

�20

organized their Board, but after a few years failed to main­
tain it and lapsed into innocuous desuetude.
One of the first acts of the annual meeting, December 26,
1827, was to appoint a committee, consisting of Eliphalet
Clark, Merritt Caldwell and William C. Larrabee, who pre­
pared a new draft and reported as follows, which report was
accepted:

Eliphalet Clark,
Chairman of said Committee.”
The same committee fixed tuition at 25c per week.
The distress of the Trustees for want of funds to carry on
the school is almost pathetic. They have not disposed of
their half-township of land, have twice tried to float a loan,
using that as collateral, and even to secure notes by mortgage
of real estate. They could not retreat; they must go forward.
A committee was empowered to engage a principal for the
ensuing term. Dr. Samuel Stevens, a graduate of Water­
ville College, acted as Principal the spring term of 1828.
A largely attended session of the Trustees was held in
Vienna in August, when for two days the affairs of the Semi­
nary'- were thoroughly considered.
Merritt Caldwell, having graduated from Bowdoin Col­
lege, was secured as Principal for the fall term of 1828, and
continued in that position until 1834.
The annual meeting this year was held December 31,
1828, and the time of future annual meetings fixed for the day
after the closing of the spring term. Merritt Caldwell was
formally elected Principal, and also a Trustee.
The first mention of the Calliopean Society occurs in an
order to the Mechanical Agent to make a book-case for it.
That that, or similar societies, existed is inferred from votes
of the Trustees denying to students the privilege of forming
such societies within the school without the knowledge or
consent of the Board of Trustees. At this meeting all the
books belonging to the Trustees were given to the Calliopean
Society.
Moses Springer, Jr., is made a committee to again peti­
tion the Legislature for aid, though they have hardly disposed

�22

of the last donation of a half-township. This man seems
from the record to be one of the most business-like men on
the Board.
The first annual meeting after the change of time con­
vened July 16, 1829. The Seminary seems to be firmly
established, courses of instruction well defined, and admin­
istered by competent instructor who has been in charge for
a year, and, were it not for financial troubles and the difficulty
of finding proper managers of the Agricultural and Mechanical
Departments, would be on the road to success. Elihu Robin­
son has administered these departments to the extent of his
ability, but has not had a free hand in doing so, and besides,
has been the one man relied on for the discharge of difficult
trusts. One can but be impressed with his usefulness as the
proceedings of the Board of Trustees are followed year after
year, and with what the Maine Wesleyan Seminary owes to
him in the formative days of its life.
The majority of the Trustees were Methodist Preachers,
without much business tact. An exception should be made
to this in the persons of Moses Springer, Jr., James Williams,
Moses Stone and Philip Munger, and later, Dr. Eliphalet
Clark, who were evidently men of affairs.
Reference is had occasionally in the doings of the
Trustees to finances connected with the Maine Conference.
This comes to a settlement at this meeting by the Trustees
authorizing their Treasurer to pay over to the Conference
one hundred dollars in full of all demands. The Conference
seems to have considered itself a beneficiary of Mr. Sampson’s
charities in some way, and the Trustees buy off their claim in
this manner.
A move is made for a College Preparatory Course, and
Merritt Caldwell continued Principal, and adjournment taken
to January 5th.
The Board of Trustees is now increased to the full number,
a majority of whom are members of the Maine Conference.

Another move is made to raise a permanent fund, whose
income shall be S600, or more. This sum is deemed neces­
sary to meet the yearly expenses. The Female School is not

�23

yet in operation, but someone is pressing for it. Mr. Samp­
son is considering further concessions, and a continuance is
taken to February 10th.
CHAPTER VIII
A Gloomy Time
February 10th, 1830, Mr. Sampson the fourth time alters
the requirements of his deed, which is accepted by the
Trustees, and in consideration thereof makes over to the
Trustees of the Methodist Society on Kent’s Hill the house
and land adjoining the Meeting House lot for a parsonage,
and donates one hundred dollars for finishing it.
This meeting has been continued seven months. There
is internal evidence that while the school as such is prospering
and that students are not wanting, the Trustees are at a loss
to meet the situation. A special meeting is called for July
20th, which deliberates on the situation for three days. That
the question of closing the school was under consideration
cannot be doubted, for on the third day a direct vote to
continue the school was reached, after three members of the
Board had guaranteed a sum sufficient,—six hundred dollars—
to carry it on another year. These men are understood to be
Merritt Caldwell, Dr. Eliphalet Clark and Dudley Moody.
Previous to this, the sureties for a note of SI,500 had been
secured by real estate.
The opening of a Young Ladies’ School was again brought
up at the annual meeting, January' 5, 1831, by a Resolve
declaring it expedient and directing that the west room in the
Seminary be fitted up. Messrs. Moody, Clark and Caldwell
were made a committee to engage an Instructress. This was
to be used in a petition to the Legislature as an inducement
to grant aid.
There are indications that this move succeeded in open­
ing the school to young ladies as soon as all the arrangements
for it could be effected. Miss Urania Merritt was the first
female teacher employed. Later, during Merritt Caldwell’s
principalship, Miss Phoebe Payne was engaged as Preceptress.

�24

Merritt Caldwell is again elected Principal. That the
plan of the school retains its popularity with the people is
evident from the fact that the Trustees are obliged to enlarge
their shops and increase the accommodations for board. It
seems to have been a short-sighted policy to allow their
finances to fall behind by mismanagement.
CHAPTER IX

A Dramatic Occasion
We now come to one of the most dramatic occasions that
ever occurred in the history of Maine Wesleyan Seminary.
Whether considered as an act of desperation, or a stroke of
finesse, it was a masterpiece of corporate action. The author­
ship of the scheme or the resolutions, or who presented them
to the Board, is nowhere revealed. The Maine Annual Con­
ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church was in session at
Hallowell, Bishop Soule presiding, June, 1831.
On the morning of the 10th the Trustees of the Seminary
met at the same place, and, without preliminary, voted that
the President, Moses Springer, Jr., invite such persons, other
than members of the Board, to a seat with it, as he sees fit.
Then, without the formality of a committee, the following
resolutions were presented:
“I. Resolved: That, in the opinion of this Board, the
Maine Wesleyan Seminary is established on such principles
as give it a claim superior to that of any other literary institu­
tion in this State on all the friends of science, morality and
religion; and that its claims for support on the Maine Confer­
ence and the members of the Methodist Episcopal Church
are more sacred than on any other class of community.
“II. Resolved: That the present depressed state of the
funds of this institution is, in the opinion of this Board, a
loud call for renewed, strenuous and well-directed efforts on
the part of its friends.
“III. Resolved: Inasmuch as the interests of this insti­
tution are, in our opinion, associated with the dearest interests
of the rising generation and of our growing church in this

I

�25

State; and as the time has now come when but one alternative
is left us, which is to place it on a firm basis, or to let it sink
to rise no more; that our best efforts as a Board and as individ­
uals shall be directed to sustain this institution.
“IV. Resolved: That the cause of this institution be
presented to the Maine Annual Conference now in session,
and that their co-operation be solicited in the appointment
of an agent whose experience and influence shall be propor­
tioned to the character of the institution and to the great
responsibility of making a last appeal in its behalf to the
generosity of our church and the public.
“V. Resolved: That it be recommended to the Con­
ference to adopt some measures by which the operations of
said agent shall be facilitated, and by which subscriptions
shall be opened in every station and on every circuit in the
Conference.”
Messrs. Caldwell, Springer and Cox were appointed a
committee to present these resolutions to the Conference, also
to petition that Rev. Charles Baker should be appointed
Agent. When the committee had presented their resolu­
tions, the Conference rose in a body to accept, and a sub­
scription was started then and there, led by the Bishop, by
which the sum of $1,360 was raised on the spot, mostly by
preachers who hardly knew from day to day whence their
own support was coming. The scene is described as most
inspiring. The Rev. Charles Baker was appointed Agent.
A resolution highly commendatory of the services of
Principal Caldwell was passed, wherein was expressed the
hope that “no motive” would induce him to leave his post.
His salary was increased one hundred dollars, and a present
of fifty dollars was made him. The next term was fixed for
the opening of the Young Ladies’ Department.
The effect of this move and the success of Rev. Baker’s
agency for a time cleared the financial sky and restored
confidence.
It may seem strange to us, looking back over four score
years, that there was so great apathy on the part of the
denomination in coming to the support of the Seminary; but
it must be remembered that the Methodists of Maine were

�26

of the common lot, with more zeal than means, and that one
hundred dollars meant very much to them individually, and
that the poor success of former agencies had had a depressing
effect. Asa Heath’s service the year before had realized but
about $160 over and above his salary and expenses. When
your staging costs as much as your house, you sometimes let
the house go.
This session of the Board was continued into the next
week, evidently under the inspiration of the Conference, con­
sidering matters deemed essential to the success of the school.
Among these was the establishment of a Teachers’ School;
securing a Preceptress for the next term, and providing a
permanent Professor of Languages. The scope of the educa­
tional work undertaken broadened on their hands continually,
and it was difficult to keep abreast of it.

The ambition of students to increase the number of
literary societies was a source of heated discussion in the
Board.
In their appeals for aid to the State, the Trustees had
represented the school as unsectarian, yet were supporting
Methodist preaching. To free themselves from any charge
of inconsistency, they suggested to Mr. Sampson that he
withdraw a sufficient amount of funds to enable him to meet
that requirement personally, and so remove any cause of
complaint. Thus early was laid the foundation for the
cosmopolitan character the school has maintained, despite its
name.
There was no lack of theories, discussions and resolutions
in this and succeeding sessions of the Trustees relative to the
questions before them for consideration. The one most in
evidence was the raising of funds for the ever-increasing needs
of the institution. More shops are wanted; a larger boarding
house must be built. There are social conditions ever
recurring that tax the wisdom of Principal and Visiting Com­
mittees. At the annual meeting, January, 1832, these things
are provided for, so far as Trustee action is required, and
Merritt Caldwell is re-elected as Principal. Despite his
spirited encounters with the Trustees in opposition to their

f

�27

policies, they cannot dispense with his services at the head of
the Seminary.

Notwithstanding that there were already academies in
different parts of the State that were doing the work of the
high school of to-day, a different class of students was drift­
ing to Kent’s Hill. Their careers in after life point out to us
the type of manhood and womanhood they represented.
The subscription at Conference, 1831, with other sub­
scriptions that followed, together with the one thousand
dollars of State aid, relieved the financial stress for the time
being. At the close of the school year, 1833, it became
evident, as once before, that a permanent income of six
hundred dollars must be provided for the yearly operations
of the school and the Conference was again appealed to to
raise a fund of ten thousand dollars.
Rev. Gersham F. Cox was appointed Agent; a plan for
four-hundred and two-hundred scholarships was worked up,
and Mr. Cox took the field. At the next Conference he
reported ten thousand dollars collected in cash and reliable
notes. At first this seemed to be a great success, but later
proved to be a mortgage on the funds of the Institution.
Mr. James Dinsmore, of the Trustees, raised about six thou­
sand dollars in addition. This movement gave a more hopeful
aspect to affairs, and served as a stimulus to increase the
number of students at the Seminary.

This same year Mr. Caldwell severed his connection with
the Seminary, having been elected Professor of Metaphysics
in Dickenson College, Carlisle, Pa. It has been an oftrepeated experience with the Seminary that when it had
developed a teacher of admirable parts, some higher institu­
tion of larger means would make requisition on it. The
school continued through the year under the charge of Charles
Collins, James Bell, A. B., and A. F. Wheelock, A. B.

�28

CHAPTER X
Larrabee’s Administration
In 1835, William C. Larrabee, Principal of Cazenovia
Seminary, was elected Principal and entered on his duties at
once. A man of unusual tact and ability as teacher was now
at the head of the institution. He associated with him
Benjamin F. Teft, a recent graduate of Wesleyan University,
a brilliant scholar, and other able teachers.
The improved financial condition of the Seminary, the
reputation of the Faculty, the opportunities for meeting some
portion of the expenses in the manual labor departments,
drew large numbers of students.
Principal Larrabee was extremely popular with all classes
of society, and not averse to the humorous side of affairs
when opportunity offered. It is related that when stopping
at a hotel in the city of Bangor one day he strolled out to the
stable, where his curiosity was excited by hearing the hostler
swearing at the horses in classic language. He entered into
conversation with him and found himself in the presence of a
man of unusual scholarly attainments, a graduate of the
University of Dublin, but who, because of his love for strong
drink, was reduced to this lowly occupation. Mr. Larrabee’s
interest in him, however, was very much aroused, and before
leaving he induced him to come to Kent’s Hill. In due time
the candidate arrived, and the Principal deemed it the proper
thing to have his fitness attested by his teacher in languages,
and he was sent to Professor Teft for examination. The
Professor, in rather a spectacular way, brought out his Greek
text books and opening them handed one to the new teacher,
reserving one for himself, and, indicating a lesson, requested
him to proceed. With lightning-like rapidity—he was very
quick spoken—he began to read the text before him. The
Professor lost his place and stopped the reader to know where
he was. This was pointed out and away again he went, and
was again halted to know where he was. The third time he
sets the Professor right and is off like a race-horse, when Teft,
in desperation, calls out, “Where are you reading?” His
candidate answers, “Right there,” putting his finger on the

�29

line, “can’t you keep the place?” That candidate was
Andrew Walsh, a veritable son of Ould Ireland, one of the
greatest linguists of his day and an equally expert mathema­
tician.
Father Walsh, as he was known to the students, was
simple as a child; indeed, he was more of a child than a man,
save for his intellectual attainments, for he was equally a
philosopher and a linguist. He was deeply religious, and those
who may have heard his exhortations in the social meeting
did not soon forget the matter or the manner. Alas! he went
back to his cups, and his light went out in obscurity.
The popularity of Larrabee’s administration continued
unabated. There was not a neighborhood around but was
represented by some of its youth. The attendance at the
school increased to such an extent that it was absolutely
necessary to erect a new boarding house. Notwithstanding
the necessity for enlarging the accommodations, every move
plunged the corporation deeper and deeper in debt.
There was one agency not yet mentioned that came
generously to the relief, viz: The Maine Wesleyan Associa­
tion, which pledged the net profits arising from the printing
of the Maine Wesleyan Journal to the funds of the school.
How much was derived from this source we are unable to
state, but the Journal itself was a help as the mouthpiece of
the Seminary. The membership of the Maine Conference,
except for the one spasmodic effort in 1830, never seemed to
realize how great an obligation it was under to the school in
their midst. Eventually, a feeling of distrust and indifference
engendered towards it.
Nevertheless, outwardly everything seemed prosperous;
the shops were full of workers, the Seminary of students. No
one seemed to know where the leak was financially. Their
embarrassments increased. The fact was, they were employ­
ing unskilled labor. The manufactured products were not
worth as much as the stock from which they had been pro­
duced. They could not be sold in the market, save at a loss,
and accumulated in the shops. The same was true of the
farm, and their property depreciated. These were the causes
that were leading to bankruptcy, and yet the school was

�30

sustained because of its popularity. Principal Larrabee
maintained his supremacy, but he at length became involved
in the impending ruin, and in 1840 accepted a professorship
in the Asbury University, Greencastle, Ind.
The funds were all gone; there was next to nothing to
show for all the money that had been collected; public con­
fidence in the management was at a standstill.
An agent was appointed to dispose of all the available
assets,—the real estate could not be alienated—and settle
claims against the Institution; but these were not sufficient;
it was still in debt.
In 1841, Dr. Stephen Allen, at that time Professor of
Mathematics in the Troy Conference Seminary, Poultney,
Vermont, was elected Principal and took charge that winter
term. The situation was forlorn, indeed. The buildings
were out of repair; the Seminary hardly habitable because of
faulty construction, and liable to collapse at any time. These
defects were overcome as well as they could be at the time, a
goodly number of students gathered, and the school went on.
Dr. Allen brought to his assistance an able corps of teachers,
young men and women of ability, who thought more of the
service rendered than of the pay received. Among them
were George W. Jewett, Miss Mary Ann Moody, afterwards
Mrs. G. W. Jewett, Miss C. Sturdivant, Charles F. Allen and
Henry P. Torsey.
The success of the school had always been due to the
ability and self-sacrificing devotion of its instructors, and for
three years it continued without other material support. The
annuities could no longer be met; the scholarships were an
incumbrance that could no longer be carried.
In 1844, Dr. Allen resigned to join the Maine Conference,
and Henry P. Torsey, who had been his assistant the year
previous, was elected Principal upon the condition that he
should furnish all the instruction, pay for all repairs, and
receive all the income. The Trustees had absolutely nothing
to offer save the location of the Seminary. The financial
straits to which the Institution was reduced may be inferred
from the statement of Mr. Torsey that after paying all bills
one term he had twenty dollars left for his services. Men of

i

�31

affairs hardly understand the devotion and consecration of
great souls to the life-work they have in hand, but out of this
spirit the things that never die are born.

CHAPTER XI
Dr. Torsey’s Administration

The ensuing Methodist Annual Conference met at
Bangor (1844) and the Trustees of the Seminary arranged for
a meeting at the same time and place. Its fiscal affairs were
at a standstill, and they voted unanimously to surrender their
interests in the Seminary to the Conference, according to the
conditions of the Trust Deed, which offer was as unanimously
spurned by the Conference; mitigating the refusal, however,
with the proposal to still aid the Board with their influence in
maintaining the school.
This action of the Conference created a coldness between
the Trustees and that body that was felt for years afterward.
The Trustees met at Kent’s Hill soon after that and
resolved to make one more effort for the relief of the school.
Luther Sampson annulled all annuities and contributed
fifteen hundred dollars toward needed improvements. The
old Seminary building had become untenantable and a new
one must be built. To this end, one fourth of an acre was
secured in the northwest corner of David Wheelock’s field,
the present site of Bearce Hall, and preparations made to build
thereon. 'Squire Underwood, of Fayette Mills, had a kiln of
pressed brick at the foot of the hill, intended for a new store,
but which, instead, he sold to the Trustees, and these, together
with the old brick procured from the Seminary that was being
razed to prevent its tumbling down, sufficed to construct a
plain, but neat and convenient school building, 40x60 feet,
two stories high, at a cost of about three thousand dollars,
half of which, as already noted, Mr. Sampson gave.
Meantime, the school was in operation. The bell had
been taken down and set up on four posts in front of the
Mansion, and rooms enough for recitation purposes appropri­
ated from the boarding house.

�32

Rev. D. B. Randall gave up his appointment to act as
agent for the Trustees to procure the surrender of scholar­
ships and compromise or settle claims against the Institution.
In this he was eminently successful, and secured funds neces­
sary for building the new Seminary. Many cancelled their
claims, among them Dr. Allen, relinquishing one thousand
dollars due on salary.
The value of Elder Randall’s services in this year of
reconstruction have never been duly recognized. He was a
most successful pleader, and, though severely criticized by
some, he accomplished a work that freed the Trustees from
their embarrassments by scraping off the barnacles that had
impeded progress. There was nothing left to them but their
realty, and much of this, the farm especially, was much
depreciated; but they knew just what they had in hand and
what to depend upon. Debts were no longer staring them in
the face; the manual labor scheme was dropped, and only the
school was on their hands. This was placed on an independ­
ent basis by the arrangement with Mr. Torsey, and they
began again.
Looking back over the two score years, a visionary haze
seems to envelope them. The convictions of a prosperous
farmer that it was his duty to share his means with the com­
munity around him, the crude conception of how to do it,
and the fear lest the means be misused, are by themselves a
chapter in human life.
Luther Sampson now practically retires from the stage
of action. He has occupied the middle of the stage to the
present time, but now has cancelled all obligations of the
Institution he has founded to himself, and in addition has
contributed nearly half of the new venture. He was of the
Puritan type, brought up to the hard and fast facts of colonial
times, and he looked at the world as it moved about him. He
schemed for his pound of flesh, but when he had gained it he
was willing to divide with the Lord. All men do not do this
’Tn SeyemiBht- Fafcher Robinson relates how at one time
..non Mr. Sampson was arranging with him for the bestowal
' three thousand dollars, he suggested that his son might not

�33

be agreeable to this, Father Sampson drew back, and straight­
ening up addressed him: “Ezekiel, that money is not
David’s; it is the Lord’s,” and to the Lord it went. Such
men may seem hard to the world, but be it remembered that
the mold they are cast in is not easily changed; it might not
be bettered if attempted.
That Mr. Sampson was disappointed in the business
ability of some of the men he associated with himself is
evident, and that he disagreed with them at times as to the
methods of conducting affairs cannot be doubted; and that
he early retired from the Board to avoid the vexatious dis­
cussions that men of theories without the practice were con­
stantly provoking, is still further evident.

It is also apparent that his own views of what was desir­
able to accomplish changed; that it was an evolution of thought
that worked out the conception of a Seminary such as would
meet the wants of the common people. Mr. Sampson began
by building as he knew, but ere the first plan was developed
a larger structure rose up before him, and he attempted to
adapt the same means to the larger end. To this end he had
no experience as a guide, neither had any of those associated
with him; hence the financial failure that followed. The
conception was equal to anything that has been devised, but
a hundred thousand has not been found equal to what ten
thousand attempted.
Dr. Torsey’s career as the head of Maine Wesleyan
Seminary for thirty-eight years is one of the notable events
of its history,—at present the most notable. With a common
school education and such additions as he was able to make
as a student and assistant where he was now in charge, his
original research and wonderful tact soon placed him in the
lead of educators in New England.
The effect of such leadership was soon apparent.
Students flocked to Kent’s Hill in such numbers that accom­
modations at the Seminary or on the Hill were inadequate,
and the region around within a radius of two miles was taxed
for board and rooms. The Trustees of to-day, in their
monopoly of board, forget their appeal in the day of need and

�34

how it was met. The desire for an education by those who
can ill afford it is just as great as ever, but the world that has
prospered has grown cold. The open door that Kent’s Hill
once offered would fill its halls again.
The growth of the school soon raised a clamor for more
room. The confidence of the public was restored, and at the
session of the Maine Conference in 1853 a convention of the
friends of education in the church met to consider its interests.
Much enthusiasm was manifested. Dr. Torsey advocated
the broadening of the curriculum of studies to include a
college for women. Generous sums were subscribed towards
the erection of a new building, Dr. Eliphalet Clark, of Port­
land, heading the list with one thousand dollars, and others
with smaller amounts.
Rev. Stephen Allen was appointed agent to solicit funds
for the object in view; and, to avoid the mistakes of former
agencies, a separate Board of Trust was organized under an
act of the Legislature, with the title of Maine Wesleyan Board
of Education, for the safe-keeping of funds. The agency was
continued year after year, part of the time in connection with
a pastoral charge, Mr. Torsey and others rendering assistance,
till a sufficient sum was raised to warrant the construction of
a new building.
Plans were obtained, and in June, 1858, ground was
broken and the laying of the corner-stone observed by an
address from William H. Allen, President of Girard College.
Dr. Allen was himself a Readfield boy and an alumnus of
Maine Wesleyan Seminary.
The building now known as Sampson Hall was com­
pleted and dedicated in August, 1860. This time the address
was by Rev. Charles F. Allen, of the Maine Conference.
Dr. Stephen Allen, in addition to his agency, acted as
Chairman and Treasurer of the Building Committee, kept all
accounts, drew up all contracts, signed and endorsed personally
all notes for borrowed money, till the Hall was completed and
furnished at a cost of fifty thousand dollars. This was a
large sum for the times, and a larger sum for a Methodist
minister to be accountable for, but never a note went to
protest, nor payment of a contract delayed beyond the time.

�35

It was truly a monumental work, supported and carried for­
ward by the character of the man who stood for it.

CHAPTER XII
Woman’s College

On the opening of the Fall term, 1860, a new mile-stone
in the history of the Seminary was set; the curriculum was
enlarged to include a college course for young ladies, the com­
pletion of which would entitle them to a degree. The faculty
was increased to meet this demand, and the Principal became
a President. Funds were in waiting to meet these advances,
and the Institution was on a solid financial basis which it was
pledged to maintain. The opening of a college for women
was in itself a notable event. A Female Institute had been
opened in 1856, at Carmel, N. Y. Mary Lyon’s Seminary for
girls at Holyoke was in operation, and a still older one at
Bradford, Massachusetts, but none of these conferred degrees.
Maine Wesleyan at Kent's Hill antedates Vassar four
years; Wellesley and Bryn Mawr, ten years, and Smith,
fourteen years. For a time it met the purpose of its founder,
viz.: to afford the girls who were in the same classes with the
boys preparing for college an open opportunity to keep
abreast of them, and was popular in so doing, but the shadow
of the Seminary has always obscured the College.
Its graduates, however, have always made good whenever
tested, and are entitled to an honorary recognition by reason
of their achievement with those of like educational institu­
tions in the land. J ustice required that a line of demarcation
be drawn between the Seminary and the College, but this has
never been accorded, and to-day it languishes because pro­
fessed friends have turned their backs to it at the last hour
for the sake of a name; perhaps its light has gone out.
Dr. Torsey closed his connection with the school as
President of its Faculty with the Spring term of 1882, after
thirty-eight years of continuous service. The latter years he
had not been as efficient as formerly, by reason of impaired
health, due to a reckless disregard of his physical powers, but
that extreme personality was ever dominant. His aim ever

�36

was to make men and women, rather than scholars, and he
succeeded. Who that ever heard his impassioned address
when a moment of inspiration was on him at the close of a
chapel service was ever able to shake off the impression of the
hour? He had his imperfections, like other great souls, but
despite these he lived and will live in the larger life that his
larger conception of life inspired in the life around him. All
life is for eternity, and such lives lead the way up the ascending
plane the generations of men are climbing, the ultimate of
which is the Greater Man.
CHAPTER XIII
Bearce Hall
One want supplied reveals another, and it was soon
found that although a chapel and college recitation room had
been temporarily supplied in Sampson Hall, the want of more
class room was keenly felt. The teachers said: “We will not
ask for a raise of salary if you will give us more room.”
Planning for ways and means began anew. In 1871, Dr.
Torsey’s Seminary was razed and the foundations of Bearce
Hall laid, which was builded and first occupied the Fall term
of 1874, at a cost of forty thousand dollars. This time a few
men were prominent, and a general subscription avoided.
Prominent among them were Samuel R. Bearce, of Lewiston,
and William Deering, of Portland,—Mr. Bearce with twenty
thousand dollars and Mr. Deering with six thousand for the
chapel.
Over twenty-five thousand dollars of interest-bearing
funds are now in the hands of the Trustees, and twenty
thousand, to which was later added fifty thousand from the
estate of Dr. Eliphalet Clark, of Portland, in the keeping of
the Maine Wesleyan Board of Education, the income of
which was to be applied solely to instruction in the Seminary
and College. Other funds had been contributed from time
to time by generous friends for the benefit of students, library,
etc., till the amount of investments for educational purposes
exceeded one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. A Con­
servatory of Music and Art School were among the attrac­
tions of the school.

�37

This was the condition of affairs when Dr. Torsey retired
at the close of the Spring term, 1882, and was succeeded by
Rev. Edgar M. Smith. Mr. Smith was also a Maine boy, an
alumnus of the Seminary, a graduate of Wesleyan University
and a popular preacher. There was now at the head of the
institution a highly cultured man, who was to make himself
known as a great teacher. He soon demonstrated this in his
classes, and in turn gave a scholarly tone to the facul ty board
that reacted on the school. Especially was this felt in the
Woman’s College, and in this he was greatly aided by Mrs.
Smith—herself a graduate of the College—by reason of her
charming personality, felt by any circle in which she moved.
President Smith was capricious in his methods of disci­
pline, and therefore was not always a success for himself or
with the students. He continued in charge till the close of
the Spring term, 1893,—eleven years. He had become some­
what restive under the restraints of the Trustees by their not
seconding some of his plans, and in June of that year he was
elected to and accepted the presidency of the Montpelier,
Vermont, Seminary.
CHAPTER XIV

Blethen and Ricker Halls
When Dr. Smith came to Kent’s Hill there was no
President’s House, Dr. Torsey living in his own house, but
again generous friends came to the rescue and Blethen Hall
was erected, Alden J. Blethen, an old-time student, contri­
buting half the cost.
A business college was instituted by President Smith,
which was very successful under its first Principal, William A.
Barton.
The increasing wants of the Music and Art Departments
necessitated the building of Ricker Hall in 1893. This enter­
prise developed another generous giver in the person of
J. S. Ricker, of Deering, for whom the hall was named.
Later, steam heat was introduced into all the school buildings
by installing a plant in the rear of Sampson Hall. Many
improvements were projected and carried out during this

�38

administration, but in providing for them the Trustees
departed from the rule that had prevailed up to the close of
Dr. Torsey’s administration, that no expenditures be incurred
before there were means to pay for them; and a debt of con­
siderable dimensions was piling up.
When Dr. Smith left the State he was beginning to be
appreciated as a public speaker and gaining quite a popu­
larity thereby. Let it be known that he was to preach at a
given place, and there would be a congregation to hear him.
He was not particularly brilliant, but attractive in his dis­
course; of the kind people liked to hear.
The quest for a successor to Dr. Smith was a prolonged
one. No alumnus or eastern man was available, and the
choice fell ultimately on the President of a western college in
the person of Rev. Charles W. Gallagher, a graduate of
Wesleyan.
Mr. Gallagher came to Maine Wesleyan highly recom­
mended. A fine scholar, an entertaining speaker, he entered
upon his work with a large degree of promise. The broadness
of the Seminary’s work surprised him. Whereas he thought
he was coming to a merely preparatory school, he found
courses of study equal to, as he expressed it, two years in
college. His wife was a woman of culture, and the interest
she took in the young ladies of the Seminary and College was
not only helpful to them, but an aid to him. He was in a
measure successful in the school room, but for some reason
had not the tact and control necessary to be exercised in a
school of such mixed character, and in the Conference
embroglio over the Frank Jones affair at the annual session
in Portland, 1897, he took advantage of the situation to
resign.
This incident in the history of the Board of Trustees
deserves, perhaps, a passing notice. At a meeting of the
Trustees in Portland, in 1896, there were four vacancies to be
filled in the Board. Nominations and election to three of
them were made without comment, but when the fourth was
reached there was a halt. At length J. S. Ricker, sitting in
the middle of the room with his hands on his knees in a
thoughtful mood, raised his head and said: “I have a man,

F

t

�39

but don’t know what you will think of him,—it is Frank
Jones. I have known Mr. Jones a good many years and have
always found him a man; his word is as good as his bond, I
asked him not long since what he was going to do with his
money when he was done with it. ‘Oh,’ he replied, ‘there
will be uses enough to put it to.’ I said, ‘Why don’t you
put it where it will be doing good after you are gone?’ He
asked where. I replied, ‘There is the Maine Wesleyan
Seminary and Woman’s College.’ He retorted, ‘I will if
you will,’ and I answered back, ‘I have been doing it for
three years; come on.’ ” Mr. Ricker said no more. The
propriety of such a move was up to the Trustees. The
vote on the election of Mr. Jones was nearly unanimous.
President Gallagher and Dr. Allen refrained from voting.
The Maine Conference was at the time in session at Auburn,
but failed to notice the act of the Trustees. At the session
in Portland, however, the following year, the matter was
violently ventilated in a heated discussion. The result of the
onslaught on Mr. Jones was, whereas he had purposed to
equal the bequest of Mr. Ricker,—twenty-five thousand
dollars—he ultimately cut it to ten thousand.

CHAPTER XV

Chase and Trefethen Administrations
At the annual meeting of the Trustees in June, 1897, the
President of the Board was authorized to engage A. Fitzroy
Chase, then Principal of Bucksport Seminary, which he did
before the meeting closed.
President Chase was not unknown to Kent’s Hill. He
had been a successful teacher of the department of Mathe­
matics during part of Dr. Torsey’s administration and was
noted for his energy and forcefulness in whatever he under­
took; so much so that he often overstepped bounds; never­
theless, he was a great teacher.
He was one of those men of quick comprehension, who
take in the situation at a glance and proceed to act, regardless

�■

40

of others’ opinions, and hence their collisions. They are
leaders; they cannot be trusted in the rear; they will run
onto you.
President Chase gave to the institution two forceful
years of service. During the Fall term of 1899, he was
attacked by a malignant abscess on his neck, whose virus soon
entered the circulation, and he died October 22nd. Too
early gone!
On the decease of President Chase, Professor Henry
Emerson Trefethen, Dean of the Woman’s College, was
appointed by the Prudential Committee, Acting President,
and continued to exercise that office during the school year
and until he was elected President.
Professor Trefethen did not take kindly to the office; its
duties were irksome to him; he much preferred the quietude
of his chair in Ancient Languages at a less salary, to the
responsibilities of the presidential office, and was glad to
resign it at the annual meeting in 1903. His administration
was characterized by judicial firmness. He could not be
aggressive, but was positive. He stoutly maintained that
the student had rights that were to be carefully conserved,
but woe to that student that forfeited his rights,—he appealed
in vain.
Professor Trefethen has been a long time in the service
of the Seminary and College. He came to Kent’s Hill a
young man at the beginning of his professional career. He
has grown grey in the service. He has always retained the
respect of the student body,—the one teacher of whom they
have said, “If we ask Prof. Trefethen a question we do not
have to wait till to-morrow to get an answer.” He has
equally the confidence of the community around him. Public
men who come in contact with him are surprised at the
breadth of his knowledge in civic affairs, and accord him a
high place as a man of sound judgment. We wish sometimes
that he was more aggressive, more ambitious of position and
distinction, that the things he has learned might benefit
others more. May what he has been and still is to Maine
Wesleyan Seminary long be recognized.

�41

CHAPTER XVI
W. F. Berry’s Administration

On the retirement of President Trefethen from the
presidency, in 1903, the Trustees elected one of their own
number to the position,—Rev. Wilbur F. Berry, of the Maine
Conference.
Dr. Berry came to the presidency without the previous
preparation of his predecessors. The little experience he had
had as a teacher was afar off; his life-work had been in the
ranks of the Christian ministry, where he had gained a
deserved reputation. It was no surprise, therefore, that he
found himself somewhat out of place at the head of a literary
institution. He was not a failure, however, for, self-con­
tained, he turned his attention to the outside interests of the
Seminary and College and succeeded in building them up by
personal effort, as none of his immediate predecessors had.
Such work is necessary to be done by somebody, and President
Berry did it well.
When he came to the presidency he was Secretary of the
Maine Civic League, and that body had continually clamored
for his return, to which call he yielded and resigned at the
close of the Spring term, 1909. He is now reinstated in his
former work, where he serves without a peer.

CHAPTER XVII
The Newton Administration Begins
At the meeting of the Trustees, June, 1909, it was a
debatable question how the vacant place of President should
be filled and who should fill it.
The Woman’s College had practically ceased to be; no
need of a President for that. At length it was suggested that
the Vice-President of the faculty be elected Principal of the
Seminary, leaving the presidency to be cared for hereafter.
The suggestion prevailed.
John Orville Newton, Professor of Natural Science, had
for two or three years filled that place, and, in the absence of

�42

the President, had been the head of the discipline of the
school. He was elected Principal without a dissenting vote.
Professor Newton was well equipped for the work. He
had had experience in the best of schools for discipline,—the
common school. He knew the boys, and, perhaps, the girls,
and has the tact to manage them successfully. He promises
to make good.
Beginning with Dr. Chase, the late Presidents have been
of the alumni of the Seminary and graduates of Wesleyan
University.
A move of far-reaching intent was begun by some of the
friends of the school during the summer vacation of 1910,
having in view the providing of culture with entertainment.
It is sought to accomplish this in the first instance by a highly
finished and well furnished recreation room on the first floor
of Sampson Hall, on the boys’ side, where healthful games and
pleasant sports can be enjoyed; and an equally attractive
drawing room on the girls’ side, where they can turn aside for
an hour from the tiresome drill of the text-book to the joy
and freedom of social intercourse. This is an initial step
Towards admitting the claim of most cultured men and women
that something besides the letter makes for education.
If this develops, as is hoped it will, then may it be demon­
strated with the opening of this twentieth century that the
true object of an education, as a few choice spirits have
always claimed, is the making of men and women—the
development of manhood and womanhood that will always
and everywhere adorn society.

We rejoice at the active interest manifested
in the “President’s Mansion.” and hope and
expect to see. at an early day. a spacious and
substantial residence for our President added to
the already beautiful college row. But why will
not some generous friend, with an eye to the san­
itary needs, set on foot a scheme for the erec­
tion and furnishing of a gymnasium ?
This
want has long been felt, and is showing itself in
the early disability of some of our graduates.
With the increase of mental labor required of
us, some provision for exercise becomes a hy­
gienic necessity.
The Faculty cheerfully grant
every consistent opportunity for recreation, and
are constantly advising us to take regular exer­
cise.
But in the winter months, especially,
there is an utter absence of facilities.
Often,
for several days, it is not suitable for the ladies
to leave the college grounds. A “chapel march.”
and a “game of bean-bags.” now and then, are
not sufficient. While some of a roving ( ?) turn
of mind doubtless take sufficient exercise, many

of our best students have their future efficiency
materially lessened by the want of regular and,
if necessary, of compulsory participation in gym­
nastic drill. Hand in hand with the high moral
and intellectual cultivation of our institution,
should go that careful attention to physical train­
ing, which can only be realized when rooms are
fitted for this especial purpose, and the students
are required to avail themselves of their privi­
leges.
The winter term, although it is especially
adapted to study, is an eventful season, The
term so nearly passed is no exception, One
of the leading events is a change in the ranking
system—a change we consider a reform. The
present method is based upon the scale of Kill.
This has an advantage over the previous system,
with 5 as a basis, as it makes finer distinctions.
Monthly reports are now made out and handed
to those whose rank is below the minimum, or
indicates a doubtful standing, and are sent to the
parents of minors. In some way. too. the ab­
sences are considered and reported. It was sol­
emnly remarked that nearly all excused absences
are supposed to occur on account of sickness,
and that in some instances (?) it is highly im­
portant that parents should know how sick their
children are 1 No efforts are made tending to
create a rivalry among the more advanced stu­
dents ; but these on inquiry can learn their
standing at the close of the term. We hope the
next change will be a ranking of compositions.
To incite to greater effort and accuracy in that
line would be a means of profit to us all.

In our present number we wish to say a word
about our preceptress. Miss Waterman. Besides
being a graduate of the Maine We-leyan Semi­
nary and Female College, Kent’s Hill, Me.,
with the degree of A. B.. and a recent student
at the Berlitz School of Languages, at Boston,
she came to us well recommended from former

UP THE HILL.
BY WILL JONES.

The heart of school-life always lives
In its own world. God never gives
A paradise more fair
To earth, than earth’s own school-days bright,
With all of love, and all of light,
And all of life, but care.
Wide, wide old world, whose hopes arc hills!—
Our life must climb o’er granite ills
Up to the snows of age.
We, while the storm has raged without
Heavy with clouds of fate and doubt,
Have hidden from its rage.
While climbing up the steep hill-side,
O’er fallen hopes and icy pride,
We saw a shelter here,
Here, where from all the strife we turn
And how to live and struggle learn,
To conquer fate and fear.
As, ’mid the cloud-crowned Alpine peaks,
Some sheltered bower concealment seeks
From avalanche and storm;
So here, our school-days, ’mid the rocks,
Hide from the great world’s battle shocks,
And keep their young hearts warm.

Fight on, O world! ’tis God’s decree!
Fight on, O world, till wrong shall tlee
Before the might of right!
Fight ou till slavery shall die;
Fight on till tyranny’s great lie
Shall feel the sword of light!

(

5

Strike, nation of the Plymouth sires;
Strike, nation of the lightning wires;
Strike home on your own crime!
Strike with the blows of Vicksburg, till
The ringing of your sword shall till
The history of time!
Then Gilmore, kindle your Greek fire
Beneath rebellion’s funeral pyre;
Its glare shall light the world
To burn the yoke from off the slave!
And over treason’s war-trod grave
The old star-spangled ting shall wave
With every star unfurled.
But, O my Country, in your strife.
Forget not whence your earnest life
Its first great lessons learned:
Forget not whence the spirit came
That lights the centuries with tlame,
And guides us to a better fame
Than men have ever earned.

Forget not that our schools to-day
Shed round our hopes the brightest ray
That through the darkness beams;
Forget not that, with truth and right,
Our schools strike for us in this fight,
And. through our struggles shadowed night,
Their brilliant armor gleams.

Our schools are there where science throws
Its magic thunder on our foes
O’er breathless sea and land;
Where knowledge bids its lightnings flash,
Its lines to charge, its columns dash,
Its shells explode, its .love-bolts crash
Where rebel towers stand.
Our schools are where the engineer,
Boring through midnight death and fear
With his unerring mines,
Beneath the very earth to gain
The victory force might seek in vain,—
Volcanoes sleeping in their train.
Pushes his steady lines.
Our schools are where New England’s sons
By ruined railways stack their guns,
And, with their hands of skill,
Rebuild the breathing king of steam
Upon his iron throne supreme,
Once more, with dreaded Yankee scream,
Rebellion’s soul to ehill.
Our schools are where bine rank and file
March over many a weary mile ;
And each, of thousands there,
Is fit as well to take command
As he who leads the brave young band ;
Musket or sword alike, each hand
Would well know how to bear.

Then land of schools, so blest by God
Even now, while ruin rides abroad
Over our bleeding life,
Though we are stricken by his will,
Thank Him, our schools with blessings, still,
The best of reinforcements, fill
Our armies in this strife.
Thank Him that every mournful call
For men to march and light and fall
Our struggling country sounds,
Our schools of their young lives outpour
Still their “ three hundred thousand more”
To triumphs, graves, or wounds.

But oh, for more than earthly good,
For more than patriot-given blood,
Thank Him who over-rules
Our life, for that by which is wreathed
Our life around with blessings breathed
By Heaven upon our schools,
Which, through a Christian school of prayer,
Thrills while it builds its altar there,
And faith rears its strong tower;
Thank Him for that unseen, unheard,
Ungrasped by mortal thought or word.
That only God-known power,

The power that scatters doubt to-day;
The power that makes the doubter pray
To Him he had detied ;
The power that, with God’s blessing, rolls
The Christ-tido over sinning souls
Made sinless by that tide.

THE KENT'S HILL BREEZE.
Thank God, His hand has reached us here,
Down through the storms of tins wild year,
Down through the cannon’s hreath,
Down through the universal moan
That earth sends upward to His throne
From war and woe and death.

Down the bright light path from .above,
Through all the clouds, our Father's love,
From Heaven’s great heart sublime,
Has come to bid our soul-strife cease ;
Through earthly war has come God’s peace
Down the wild hills of time.

It found our school-life hidden here
Away from the wide world of fear
As in a hermit's cave;
It turned aside to our retreat,
It came to us a mercy-seat,
It came, it came to save.
It filled our sheltered life with light,
And made our school-days here more bright
Than all our other life;
It made the future’s sea of care
Seem less the rough wave of despair,
Less billowy with strife.
Green hill of hope, green hill of hope,
At thy dim base we used to grope
Our weary, lightless way;
But Faith climbs with us up the height,
Up from the doubting, from the night,
Upward into the day.

But now we leave this scene so blest,
We leave this happy term of rest
From life’s great seething toils;
We leave the teacher and the taught,
Each, for himself, to trace his lot
Through fate's mysterious coils.

We go to climb life’s hill again,
To crowd and push with other men,
To slip, to fall, to rise,
To hurl ambition's daring form
Against the cliffs, against the storm,
Against the angry skies.
But oh 1 with strength we here have earned,
With faith and prayer we here have learned,
To climb our hill we go ;
Though winter, down the icy steep
With wildest blast, shall blinding sweep
His avalanche of snow.
No blow, no fall, no tempest’s wrath
Shall drive us from our upward path
While wo remember all
Our school-days’ counsels ; and our life
Shall be the nobler for each strife,
The stronger for each fall.

Then, when behind us, many a year
Looks backward to our terinslay- here,
Their eyes with tears shall fill, ’
And their great, beating hearts shall swell
ith thanks as they remember well
Our rest upon The Hill.

THE KENTS HILL BREEZE.

AN OLD-TIME REPORT.
Board of Trustees of the Maine

Wesleyan

Seminary :
Gentlemen,—As the year is rapidly receding,
its last sands falling from the glass of time, I

am reminded of my duty to-day before you, the
intellectual and moral improvement of the Fe­
male Department of your Institution during the
past year, and its present situation.
It is with feelings of deep interest that I now
address you, knowing it is the last time ‘I shall
be thus privileged, as I now resign the situation

with which you have so long honored me. Pain­
ful as it may be to some of the best feelings of

my nature, I rejoice that I can approach you at
this time, and in this manner, with a heart truly
grateful for the confidence you have reposed in
me; and as it regards the performance of the
duties that have devolved upon me, with a con­
science void of offense toward my beloved pu­
pils, yourselves, and my God.
I am pleased that I can speak of the contini nance and increasing prosperity of this depart­
ment. One hundred and two young ladies have
entered the past year; all of whom have attend­
ed to the higher branches of education with the
exception of two. Twenty to Natural Philoso­
phy,—thirty *to Chemistry,—twenty-two to Bot­

i

any,—twenty-one to Natural Theology,—ten to
Mental Philosophy,—twenty-one to Moral Phi­

five to Latin,—forty to French,—sfour to Span­
ish,—one to Italian,—twenty-four to the Orna­
mental Branches,—three to Music.
History,
with the more common branches of Arithmetic,
English Grammar, and Geography, have by no

means been neglected.
Their progress in these various pursuits has
been highly gratifying to their teachers. The
habits of close application, patient thought, and
thorough investigation of subjects presented to

tific scholar of any age. In no study was their

a number will be found almost every variety of
character. But as it has ever been the object to
give a high intellectual tone to this department.
and this tone is perceptible to all: every one
that entered was desirous to raise themselves to
it, in order to breathe freely its atmosphere ; and
I was daily gratified at beholding efforts to burst
asunder the chains of indolence, and overcome
incorrect mental habits.
If it has been an object to raise the intellect­
ual character of this department, there has, I
trust, been a still greater to give stability,
strength, and power to its moral and religious
being. In this, I feel we have succeeded, for
we have been aided by the unerring Spirit of
God. I have seen its renovating influence,
changing the fretful disposition to the mild and
patient; the proud to the humble. A large part
of the young ladies are professors of religion,
and in my daily intercourse with them, although
I saw much to lament, yet I discovered in the
most of them, to use the language of Scripture,
that growth in grace which is necessary to the
happiness of the Christian. * One of our num­
ber left us to commence the arduous duties of a
missionary, for which her deep piety and respect­
able talents eminently fit her.
The changes of the past year have brought
the two departments more in contact than formerly. and the result has been more favourable
than I anticipated, for I confess I had many
fears. Such an intercourse, if properly man­
aged, is productive of mutual benefit. It re­
quires wholesome restrictions and they should be
laid equally upon both parties. It increases the
responsibility of teachers, but if they are judi­
cious, (and such may yours ever be.) and dis­
tinguish accurately between truths and mere idle
gossip, to which they should never willingly list­
en. there will be no difficulty.
This, gentlemen, is the state of the Female
Department of this Seminary, I believe my
partiality has not given to it false coloring, but
I have presented it before you as it is. It
opens a field of labour to the diligent, faithful
teacher which promises an abundant harvest.
If I mistake not. a proposition was made at
your semi-annual meeting to discontinue it alto­
gether. Such a proposition could not be the re­
sult of mature reflexion. Do you not wish to
educate your daughters, your wives, your teach• Can any cue furnish the name of this missionary ?

ers, your missionaries?

Where can this, and
where has this been better accomplished than at
the Maine Wesleyan Seminary ’ Have we not
sent all these forth from our institution, and are
they not usefully and religiously performing the
duties ■which devolve upon them? Perhaps it is
urged that this department does not support it­
self. It ought to. In 183,5 it paid all its expen­
ses, and there was a balance left in the treasury.
Since then there has been an accession of salary
of thirty-live dollars, but the increase of pupils
and their permanency should overbalance this.
If it does not, could not an increase of tuition
remedy the evil?
You will perhaps think me presumptuous in
thus writing, but as it is the last time that I shall
address you, I trust you will pardon me, and at­
tribute it to its true cause, the deep interest I
feel for your Institution. Although on the eve
of departure to a distant State to engage in the
arduous duties of teaching, my feelings towards
it remain unchanged, and I shall ever rejoice in
its prosperity.
Respectfully yours,
Piiebe Paine.

In his writings, how near he* comes to us.
He is a visible spirit, “immortal company in
book-shape.” Often at the confessional, his .
essays are a sort of embodied personality.
True, he deals in common-places and with the i
trifles of humanity, but he stirs them with such i
a freakish zeal, and lightens them with so rare a
humor.
It is commonplace material, but most
uncommon handling. One would say he was
not a poet, but his prose was as alive with poetic
fire as the wake of a ship with phosphorescent
gleams on a midsummer’s night. Of his own
frailties he makes a jest, and, with a peculiar
mental twist, so briskly covers his troubles that
his sad experiences are well nigh hidden by his
genius and his heart-aches provoke a smile. We ;
accept as truth what he says of himself, that he
thinks he is happy when he knows he is sad.
Yet the salt of his sayings has often in it the ■
dampness of tears.
He keenly criticises, He slashes with his i
sarcasm. At times he heaps up. as if to the
limit of language, his withering comparisons: j
and, after all, he never fails to assure his victim
that he would deeply grieve should he chance to :

BEYOND THE SUNSET.
EMMA F. S'EWTOX.

When long shadows fall behind us
As we watch the sun’s last ray
Passing slowly from our vision
At the close of some fair day,
And the fading tints of sunlight
Linger there so lovingly
Lighting all the west with splendor
Picture beautiful to see,
While the long bright day dies slowly
O’er this world of joy and woe,
And the gloom begins to gather
As the shadows come and go—

Then the question oft arises,
As we wait the coining night
What is there beyond the sunset.
Far beyond our mortal sight'.’

27

And of all earth’s lovely pictures
Not the fairest can compare
With the loveliness ami beauty
We feel sure are over there.

Whether mansions of such splendor
As no earthly eyes behold,
Towering high with lofty turrets
Made of silver and of gold.
And the streets of that fair country
Bright as jasper, crystal clear,
And the gates of pearls and sapphires—
Fairer than we dream of here,
Or in green and flowering meadows.
Peaceful streams tlow softly by.
Where without a fear or sorrow
Earth worn forms may gently lie.
O’er those scenes of perfect beauty
Winter no rude blasts can bring,
But there reigns eternal Summer
And bright flowers perpetual Spring.

We shall some day reach the sunset
Pass beyond the glowing west
See the fair land that we long for,—
May we find there perfect rest.

Another red-letter day for the editorial corps.
Saturday evening, Feb. 10th, we had the pleas­
ure of taking tea with Mrs. 0. F. Parker, at the
Mansion. We had a delightful time, and send
through the Breeze, to our hostess, our best
wishes and sincere thanks.
How can any one resist subscribing for the
Breeze? Every old student knows that an edi­
tion is published every day in the year, besides
two extras each term, which are of special inter­
est, and all for fifty cents. Leap years, we give
still another extra. and our premiums are—but
there—you’ll find the business manager’s address
on first page.
The authorities are disposed to strictly en­
force the ten o’clock rule. Although this may
not be agreeable to us all, we can but admit
that it is a wise rule. Many of the students are
■ overworking themselves, and will see and feel
the effects of it in after years, unless cheeked
soon. But, would it be unwise to allow the stu­
dents one evening a week for their own. as far
as lights are concerned?

Just a word about that feather bed, for the
benefit of non-residents. On Jan. 23. 1883, a
feather bed was stolen—or rather abducted—by
some of the ladies; concealed in the room of two
innocent youths, by two gents, urged on by the
ladies; taken charge of by the innocent youths,
and sto—abducted again by the ladies, and
finally returned to its owners. The result ? Oh,
the joke is still on the ladies.
Cut lingers,”

The lectures of the term have been interest­
ing and instructive, but poorly attended—to the
discredit of those who think that they must stay
at home and study. Rev. R. L. Green, of Great
Falls, N. IL. lectured in Deering Chapel. Jan.
18th. on “ Mind Your Own Business,” under the
auspices of the Literati. The second lecture of
the terra was delivered Jan. 25th. at the same
place, and under the auspices of the Calliopean,
by Rev. J. M. Williams of Portland. His sub­
ject was “Queen Victoria’s Reign.”
Next
Tuesday evening. Rev. Thomas Tyne, of Au­
burn. will lecture for the Adelphians. on
“Causes of Failure.” He has the reputation of
being a good lecturer, and. undoubtedly, will in­
struct and entertain us.

Mix cream cheese, crabmeat, milk, horseradish and onion. Put in small
pie plate, cover with sliced almonds. Heat in oven until hot throuohout
(Or microwave about 3 minutes.) Serve with crackers.

1 C. Bisquick
Yz tsp. salt
Yz tsp. pepper
Skim milk to thin
Reduced fat sour cream to
garnish

*3 C. zucchini, grated
2 T. fresh chopped parsley
1 Ig. clove garlic, chopped
V2 C. Monterey jack or mild
Cheddar cheese, grated
1 egg or equivalent Egg Beater

*The trick to this recipe is to salt the grated zucchini, let it stand for
about Yz hour, drain it and then squeeze as much moisture out as
possible before combining with the remaining ingredients. This will
prevent the pancakes from being sodden. Combine all ingredients and
let stand for at least 15 minutes before cooking. Thin with milk if needed.
Batter should be fairly stiff. Coat skillet with Pam or shortening of your
choice. Drop batter by heaping teaspoonfuls onto hot skillet. Turn when
bubbles appear and cook on other side. Serve piping hot with a tiny
dollop of sour cream atop each dollar-size pancake. Bon Appetit!

heavy, it took 2 of us to haul it out of the baker’s car trunk. We also

Cream shortening, sugar and vanilla, add dry ingredients until well mixed
and you have a soft dough. Chill at least 1 hour, can mix night before,
just store in a plastic bag to preserve moisture. Roll Vs” thick. Use
cookie cutters for shapes. (Solid plastic cutters that leave imprints work
very well as they give kids a better guide for painting.) Paint cookies
before cooking with scenes or just follow the lines in the imprinted
cookies (recipe below). Your imagination is your only limit. Spray cookie
sheets with Pam. Bake at 400° for 6 to 8 minutes. When cooled, paint
will be glossy and maintain original color, will not come off unless eaten.

With a sharp knife make an incision in each chestnut. Bring a large
saucepan of water to a boil and drop in the chestnuts, cooking them for
5 minutes. Drain and peel off both the outer skin and the furry inner
skin. Put the milk, vanilla pod, sugar, salt in a saucepan, together with
the chestnuts. Bring to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes. Break the
chocolate into small pieces and soften in a double boiler. Drain chestnuts
and transfer to a food processor, together with the butter and melted
chocolate. Blend into a smooth paste, adding, if necessary, a little of
the cooking milk. On a glass or marble slab, shape the paste to resemble
a log. Dust with the cocoa and refrigerate for several hours before
serving. Decorate with whipped cream and walnut halves or crystallized
violets.

TARTE TATIN
(UPSIDE-DOWN APPLE TART)
10 golden Delicious apples,
peeled, cored and quartered
1 C. sugar
3 tsp. water

Preheat the oven to 400° F. Place the apples in a well buttered non
stick cake pan or deep-sided tart pan, arranging them as snugly as
possible. Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the apples. Drizzle the water
over the sugar. Distribute the butter evenly over the top. Cook on top of
the stove over low heat until the sugar and butter mixture boils and
begins to caramelize. This will take 15 minutes. Place in the preheated
oven and cook for 10 minutes until the caramel bubbles and lightens.
Meanwhile, roll out the pastry into a disk large enough to cover the top
of the cake pan. Place over the apples and return to the oven to cook
for a further 20 minutes, or until the pastry is cooked. Remove the tart
from the oven and let cool a few minutes before inverting it onto a
serving platter. Serve warm or at room temperature. Serves 6.

hotel at Lamotte - Beuvron early this century.

RHUBARB STRAWBERRY JAM
6 C. rhubarb
2 C. sugar

Judy Thompson
Ian Garrison '97
1 pkg. frozen strawberries
1 Ig. pkg. sugar free jello

Boil rhubarb and sugar for 15 minutes. Add strawberries and boil for 1
minute. Add jello and put into jars. Keep in refrigerator.
ONIONS EVERY WHICH-WAY

Ruth Jones
Kyle ’98

1 C. unsalted butter
10 C. Spanish onions, halved
lengthwise &amp; thinly sliced
•% C. red wine vinegar

1 tsp. black pepper
1 C. full-bodied dry red wine
V2 C.sugar
Vi tsp. salt

Melt butter in large heavy saucepan. Add all ingredients and stir. Cover
and cook slowly over low heat, stirring frequently, for 1 hour. Uncover
and continue cooking for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Onions will turn
mahogany in color.
A very versatile recipe - can be served warm or cold, on crackers as a
canape, great spread on meat or chicken sandwiches, served warm as
an accompaniment to meat and fowl. I also put 1 teaspoon on a piece
of puff pastry and make a pouch to bake in the oven. This may be
frozen and keeps very well in the refrigerator.
Not to be prepared on a day you have had your hair done, but only on
a lovely day when you can open windows or doors!
This, if I had to choose, is my favorite recipe. We were served this on
toast points in a small restaurant in Proverece. A few weeks later, it
was served to us in Paris as an accompaniment to pork. Always
delicious! At times, I snitch a teaspoon of it directly out of the refrigerator.

BOB’S GRANOLA

Robert Eisele
Liz ’95

12 C. coarse oats (3 lbs.)
1 C. wheat germ
1 C. wheat bran

1 C. sunflower or safflower oil
Vi C. honey
Vi C. molasses

In large mixing bowl combine first 3 ingredients. In quart jar, combine
and mix well oil, honey and molasses. Combine dry and liquid mixtures,
stirring well. Rinse quart jar with 1 cup hot water and add to mixture.
Spread onto cookie sheets approximately 1" thick and place in
preheated 450° oven. Immediately turn off oven and allow cereal to dry
out. Repeat this step with all. Remove from oven, place in mixing bowl
and add other ingredients to taste.
Be creative - use 1 cup maple syrup instead of honey and molasses, or
add cinnamon, walnuts, pecans, cashews, dates or dried fruit. Store in
tight container in cool, dry place or in refrigerator. Eating 1 cup per day,
will last about 1 month, and costs $12 to $14 to make.

Additional ingredients (examples):
3 C. raisins
2 C. shredded coconut
1 Vi C. crumbled dried banana
chips
1 lA C. sesame seeds

Mix the first 6 ingredients. Squeeze orange sections into marinade,
then add “peels and all”. Pour over meat and refrigerate up to 12 hours.
Place meat in colander to drain marinade. Place meat on hot grill and
cook to taste.

Put all ingredients (not topping) in bowl, mix until smooth. Pour batter
in greased muffin tins % full. Bake in a 350° oven for 10 to 15 minutes.

�GRANOLA

4 C. oats

1 T. vanilla

Prepare fire so that you have a good bed of hot embers. (It’s a good
idea to keep a “feeding fire" nearby so fresh embers can be raked up
during cooking.) Meanwhile, smear entire surface of meat with mustard.
Pat salt into the mustard until it will hold no more. Lay the salt covered
meat in the coals and rake embers around it. After about 45 minutes,
turn the roast and continue cooking about 45 minutes longer for a rare
roast, 1 hour or more for medium to well done. If you use a meat
thermometer (and this is a good idea) the meat will be rare at 140°,
medium at 160° and well done at 170°. Remove from coals and knock
off the black crust which will have formed. To serve, slice against the
grain. Makes 8 to 10 servings. (And believe it or not, it doesn’t taste like
mustard or too salty - it’s delicious - great for camping or on the grill in
the winter.)

1 C. oil (or Vi &amp; Vi lowfat margarine
and Vi lowfat oil)
Be creative! Add nuts, fruit or whatever to create your own homemade,

cake pan. Turn off oven and leave inside for 1 to 2 hours if you like drier
cereal.

COMMON CAUSES OF FAILURE IN BAKING
BISCUITS
1. Rough biscuits caused from insufficient mixing.
2. Dry biscuits caused from baking in too slow an oven and handling
too much.
3. Uneven browning caused from cooking in dark surface pan (use a
cookie sheet or shallow bright finish pan), too high a temperature and
rolling the dough too thin.

MUFFINS
1. Coarse texture caused from insufficient stirring and cooking at too low
a temperature.
2. Tunnels in muffins, peaks in center and soggy texture are caused
from overmixing.
3. For a nice muffin, mix well but light and bake at correct temperature.
CAKES
1. Cracks and uneven surface may be caused by too much flour, too
hot an oven and sometimes from cold oven start.
2. Cake is dry may be caused by too much flour, too little shortening,
too much baking powder or cooking at too low a temperature.
3. A heavy cake means too much sugar has been used or baked too
short a period.
4. A sticky crust is caused by too much sugar.
5. Coarse grained cake may be caused by too little mixing, too much
fat, too much baking powder, using fat too soft, and baking at too
low a temperature.
6. Cakes fall may be caused by using insufficient flour, under baking,
too much sugar, too much fat or not enough baking powder.
7. Uneven browning may be caused from cooking cakes at too high a
temperature, crowding the shelf (allow at least 2" around pans) or
using dark pans (use bright finish, smooth bottomed pans).
8. Cake has uneven color is caused from not mixing well. Mix thoroughly,
but do not over mix.
PIES
1. Pastry crumbles caused by overmixing flour and fat.
2. Pastry is tough caused by using too much water and over mixing
dough.
3. Pies do not bum - for fruit or custard pies use a Pyrex pie pan or an
enamel pan and bake at 400° to 425° constant temperature.

BREADS (YEAST)
1. Yeast bread is porous - this is caused by over-rising or cooking at too
low a temperature.
2. Crust is dark and blisters - this is caused by under-rising, the bread
will blister just under the crust.
3. Bread does not rise - this is caused from over-kneading or from using
old yeast.
4. Bread is streaked - this is caused from underkneading and not
kneading evenly.
5. Bread baked uneven - caused by using old dark pans, too much
dough in pan. crowding the oven shelf or cooking at too high a
temperature.

�I. THE KITCHEN
GENERAL
Salt
1. If stew is too salty, add raw cut
potatoes and discard once they
have cooked and absorbed the
salt. Another remedy is to add a
teaspoon each of cider vinegar
and sugar. Or. simply odd sugar.
2. If soup or stew is too sweet, add
salt. For a main dish or vegetable,
add a teaspoon of cider vinegar.

Gravy
3. For pale gravy, color with a few
drops of Kitchen Bouquet. Or to
avoid the problem in the first place,
brown the flour well before adding
the liquid. This also helps prevent
lumpy gravy.
4. To make gravy smooth, keep a
jar with a mixture of equal parts of
flour and cornstarch. Put 3 or4 table­
spoons of this mixture in anotherjar
and add some water. Shake, and
in a few minutes you will have a
smooth paste for gravy.
5. To remedy greasy gravy, add a
small amount of baking soda.
6. For quick thickener for gravies,
add some instant potatoes to your
gravy and it will thicken beautifully.

Vegetables
7. If fresh vegetables are wilted or
blemished, pick off the brown
edges. Sprinkle with cool water,
wrap in towel and refrigerate for an
hour or so.
8. Perk up soggy lettuce by add­
ing lemon juice to a bowl of cold
water and soak for an hour in the
refrigerator.
9. Lettuce and celery will crisp up
fast if you place it in a pan of cold
water and add a few sliced pota­
toes.
10. If vegetables are overdone, put
the pot in a pan of cold water. Let
it stand from 15 minutes to l/i hour
without scraping pan.
11. By lining the crisper section of
your refrigerator with newspaper
and wrapping vegetables with it.

moisture will be absorbed and your
vegetables will stay fresher longer.
12. Store leftover corn, peas, green
beans, carrots, celery, potatoes
and onions in a container in the
freezer. Add to other ingredients
when making stew.
13. To keep the flavor in the veg­
etables. add a small amount of
sugar to the water after cooking
carrots, peas, beets, and corn.
14. Onions, broccoli and Brussels
sprouts will cook faster if you make
an X-shaped cut at the base of the
vegetable.

Eggs
15. If you shake the egg and you
hear a rattle, you can be sure it's
stale. A really fresh egg will sink and
a stale one will float.
16. If you are making deviled eggs
and want to slice it perfectly, dip
the knife in water first. The slice will
be smooth with no yolk sticking to
the knife.
17. The white of an egg is easiest to
beat when it's at room tempera­
ture. So leave it out of the refrigera­
tor about a half an hour before
using it.
18. To make light and fluffy
scrambled eggs, add a little water
while beating the eggs.
19. Add vinegar to the water while
boiling eggs. Vinegar helps to seal
the egg, since it acts on the cal­
cium in the shell.
20. STORING EGGS: 1. Place your
eggs in those tight-sealing egg con­
tainers and they will last longer in
the refrigerator. You really shouldn 't
keep eggs longer than 11 days. 2.
Cover them with oil on the top in a
sealed container in the refrigera­
tor. 3. For long term storage: If there's
a special on eggs at your local
supermarket, you can take advan­
tage of it. Just crack all the eggs
open and put them in the freezer
unit. To use one egg at a time, put
single eggs in the Ice tray. When
frozen, put the egg cubes in a
sealed plastic bag. You can take
out the cubes one at a time for

LA'
i &lt;

daily use. If you use eggs in twos or
threes, freeze them that way in a
plastic sack.
21. To make quick-diced eggs, take
your potato masher and go to work
on a boiled egg.
22. If you wrap each egg in alumi­
num foil before boiling it. the shell
won't crack when it's boiling.
23. To make those eggs go further
when making scrambled eggs for
a crowd, add a pinch of baking
powder and 2 teaspoons of water
per egg.
24. A great trick for peeling eggs
the easy way. When they are fin­
ished boiling, turn off the heat and
just let them sit in the pan with the lid
on for about 5 minutes. Steam will
build up under the shell and they
will just fall away.
25. Or, quickly rinse hot hard-boiled
eggs in cold water, and the shells
will be easier to remove.
26. When you have saved a lot of
egg yolks from previous recipes,
use them in place of whole eggs for
baking or thickening. Just add 2
yolks for every whole egg.
27. Fresh or hard-boiled? Spin the
egg. If it wobbles, it is raw- if it spins
easily, it's hard boiled.
28. Add a few drops of vinegar to
the water when poaching an egg
to keep it from running all over the
pan.
29. Add 1 tablespoon of water per
egg white to increase the quantity
of beaten egg white when making
meringue.
30. Try adding eggshells to coffee
after it has perked, for a better fla­
vor.
31. Fresh eggs are rough and chalky
in appearance. Old eggs are
smooth and shiny.
32. Pierce the end of an egg with a
pin, and it will not break when
placed in boiling water.
33. Beaten egg whites will be more
stable if you add 1 teaspoon cream
of tartar to each cup of egg whites
(7 or 8 eggs).
34. A small funnel is handy for sepa­
rating egg whites from yolks. Open

the egg over the funnel and the
white will run through and the yolk
will remain.
35. For baking, it's best to use me­
dium to large eggs. Extra large may
cause cakes to fall when cooled.
36. Brown and white shells are the
same quality.
37. Egg whites can be kept up to 1
year. Add them to a plastic con­
tainer as you "collect them' for use
in meringues, angel food cake... 1
cup equals 7 or 8 egg whites. You
can also refreeze defrosted egg
whites.
38. For fluffier omelets, add a pinch
of cornstarch before beating.

Potatoes
39. Overcooked potatoes can be­
come soggy when the milk is
added. Sprinkle with dry powdered
milk for the fluffiest mashed pota­
toes ever.
40. To hurry up baked potatoes, boil
in salted water for 10 minutes, then
place in a very hot oven. Or. cut
potatoes in half and place them
face down on a baking sheet in the
oven to make the baking time
shorter.
41. When making potato pan­
cakes. add a little sour cream to
keep potatoes from discoloring.
42. Save some of the water in which
the potatoes were boiled - add to
some powdered milk and use when
mashing. This restores some of the
nutrients that were lost in the cook­
ing process.
43. Use a couple of tablespoons of
cream cheese in place of butter for
your potatoes; try using sour cream
instead of milk when mashing.
Onions
44. To avoid tears when peeling
onions, peel them under cold wa­
ter or refrigerate before chopping.
45. For sandwiches to go in
lunchboxes, sprinkle with dried on­
ion. They will have turned into crisp
pieces by lunchtime.
46. Peel and quarter onions. Place
1 layer deep in a pan and freeze.
Quickly pack in bags or containers

�I
while frozen. Use as needed, chop­
ping onions while frozen, with a
sharp knife.

Tomatoes
47. Keep tomatoes in storage with
stems pointed downward and they
will retain their freshness longer.
48. Sunlightdoesn 'tripen tomatoes.
It's the warmth that makes them
ripen. So find a warm spot near the
stove or dishwasher where they can
get a little heat.
49. Save the juice from canned to­
matoes in ice cube trays. When
frozen, store in plastic bags in freezer
for cooking use or for tomato drinks.
50. To improve the flavor of inex­
pensive tomato juice, pour a 46ounce can of it into a refrigerator
jar and add 1 chopped green on­
ion and a cut-up stalk of celery.
A quick way to whip cream
51. A pinch of salt added to the
cream before whipping strength­
ens the fat cells and makes them
more elastic. This helps the cream
stiffen much more quickly.

Cream that will not whip
52. Chill cream, bowl and beater
well. Set bowl of cream into a bowl
of ice water while you're whipping.
Add the white of an egg. Chill and
then whip. If the cream still does not
stiffen, gradually whip in 3 or4 drops
of lemon juice. Cream whipped
ahead of time will not separate if
you add a touch of unflovored
gelatin (‘Xr teaspoon per cup of
cream). To eliminate a lot of mess
when whipping cream with an elec­
tricbeater. try this: Cut 2 holes in the
middle of a piece of waxed paper,
then slip the stems of the beaters
through the holes and attach the
beaters to the machine. Simply
place paper and beaters over the
bowl and whip away.

Rock-hard brown sugar
53. Add a slice of soft bread to the
package of brown sugar, close the
bag tightly, and in a few hours the

sugar will be soft again. If you need
it in a hurry, simply grate the amount
called for with a hand grater. Or.
put brown sugar and a cup of wa­
ter (do not add to the sugar, set it
alongside of it) in a covered pan.
Place in the oven (low heat) for a
while. Or. buy liquid brown sugar.

con fat for a delightful new flavor.

No spattering or sticking
60. To keep frying food from spat­
tering, invert a metal colander over
the pan, allowing steam to escape.
61. Always heat the frying pan be­
fore adding oil or butter. This will
keep things from sticking to the pan.
62. Boil vinegar in a brand new fry­
ing pan to keep things from sticking
to it.

Thawing frozen meat
54. Seal the meat in a plastic bag
and place in a bowl of very warm
water. Or, put in a bag and let cold
water run over it for an hour or so.

Hurry-up hamburgers
63. Poke a hole in the middle of the
patties while shaping them. The
burgers will cook faster and the
holes will disappear when done.

Caked or clogged salt
55. Tightly wrap a piece of alumi­
num foil around the saltshaker. This
will keep the dampness out of the
salt. To prevent clogging, keep 5 to
lOgrains of rice inside your shaker.

Shrinkless links
64. Boil sausage links for about 8
minutes before frying and they will
shrink less and not break at all. Or.
you can roll them lightly in flour
before frying.

Soggy potato chips, cereal and
crackers
56. If potato chips lose their fresh­
ness. place under the broiler for a
few moments. Care must be taken
not to brown them. You can crisp
soggy cereal and crackers by put­
ting them on a cookie sheet and
heating for a few minutes in the
oven.

Frozen bread
65. Put frozen bread loaves in a
clean brown paper bag and place
for 5 minutes in a 325° oven to thaw
completely.

Removing the corn silk
66. Dampen a paper towel or terry
cloth and brush downward on the
cob of corn. Every strand should
come off.

Pancake syrup
57. To make an inexpensive syrup
for pancakes, save small amounts
of leftover jams and jellies in a jar.

�cA foreword
^^DWARD L. THORNKIDE has said, “Education should be
considered not as a molding of perfectly plastic substances,
not as a filling of empty minds, nor as a creation of powers;
but rather as the provision of opportunity for healthy, bodily and
mental life, of stimuli to call forth desirable activities in thought,
feeling and movement, and of means for their wise direction, for
the elimination of their failures and futilities, and for the selection
of their useful forms.”
It is admitted that boys and girls of today face a life far more
complex than their forefathers. The complicated life of the city
or suburb makes constant demands on their time. A school re­
moved from these distractions where the student is not at a con­
stant disadvantage is a recognized need in our educational system.
Kents Hill School presents opportunity for the healthy, bodily
and mental life of which Mr. Thorndike speaks and also sets up
means for its wise direction.

!

*

Education at Kents Hill School is carried on under most fortu­
nate circumstances. This section of the country in the heart of
Maine has an invigorating climate which is as good in winter as
in summer and permits of outdoor sports the year round. The
school’s own farm helps to provide an excellent table. Young
men and women here lead a normal daily life in a wholesome,
democratic atmosphere where teachers and students are friendly
companions.
All these sterling advantages are within reach of people of
moderate means. A generous endowment accumulated through
the years enables the school to keep its rates low, and there is no
opportunity for extravagance in personal expenditure.

�Founding and History
Kents Hill School was founded over a century ago at Kents
Hill, Maine. The strength of the Maine hills pervades the history
of its progress and achievement. Behind its founding lies one of
the most interesting stories of pioneer life. In 1798, Luther
Sampson left his home in Marshfield, Massachusetts, on a trip of
exploration. He intended to locate on the Hudson River, but had
not proceeded far when he felt a strange inclination to go in an­
other direction. On coming to a wood, he dismounted, and as the
story says, “sought Divine direction.” As a result, came the de­
termination that when he reached the next fork in the road his
horse should choose the way. Soon he found himself journeying
toward the rising sun instead of the setting sun.
Upon reaching Kents Hill in the town of Readfield, he decided
that there would be his home. Out of the need for education in
this locality, he founded “Maine Wesleyan Seminary” or Kents
Hill School as it is now called.

University Traditions
In 1860, a new milestone was set in the history of the school;
the curriculum was enlarged to include a college course for young
women which would entitle them to a degree. Although there
were other girls’ schools at that time few conferred degrees.
The college department at Kents Hill antedates Vassar four years;
Wellesley and Bryn Mawr ten years; and Smith fourteen years.
In recent years there has been a tendency towards the intro­
duction of a Junior College department. Since 1935 a graduate
course in Secretarial Science has been offered.

A Century of Service
K

u

The educational ideals of Kents Hill have always been broad
and liberal. The school has kept pace with the times, carefully
avoiding educational fads. Students are taught only by those
methods which have been thoroughly tried and proved of value.
Through more than a century of service, the doors of Kents Hill
have never been closed, and the school stands today among the
foremost preparatory schools in New England.

Grounds and Buildings
The school group comprises nine buildings five of which are well
equipped with electric lights, steam heat, modern sanitation, and
fine drinking water. The other four are frame buildings which
are adaptable to the needs of the moment.

Sampson Hall
Sampson Hall, a four story structure in brick, is our largest build­
ing. It houses two entirely separate dormitories — one for girls
and one for boys — which are capable of accommodating one
hundred and fifty people. The dormitory rooms are well lighted
and comfortably furnished.
In this building is located the school dining room where the
faculty and students meet on common ground. There are also
social parlors for the girls and a Clubroom for the boys where the
students mingle to listen to the latest radio offering or to talk over
the events of the day.
In addition to fire escapes and the usual means of fire protec­
tion, Sampson Hall is equipped with pipe lines which bring water
under pressure to any part of the building in a few seconds.

Bearce Hall
Bearce Hall is an attractive four story brick building set well back
from the road and surrounded by lawns and stately trees. Welllighted classrooms, science laboratories, and administrative offices
are located in this building. The boys’ Greek letter societies also
have their quarters here.

Deering Chapel
Deering Chapel adjoins Bearce Hall and is virtually a part of it.
About this room, with its dignity and charm, linger many of the
richer traditions of the school. It accommodates two hundred
people and is used for morning chapel exercises, lectures, and
entertainments.

Blethen Hall
I

Blethen Hall is the home of the principal and his family. It is a
comfortable building located on the campus, where teachers,
students, and visitors find a traditional and unfailing welcome.

In school, friendships are formed which stand the test of a lifetime.
Here is a group of friends in a comfortable corner
of the boys' dormitory

■Ml

�Ricker Hall
Ricker Hall, built as the home of the Music Department, contains
a small auditorium, studios, and practice rooms on its upper
floors. The first floor houses the school library and the historical
room.

Other Dormitories
Torsey, Chase, and Ludden Halls are substantial frame buildings
and are used as dormitories. These dormitories each accommo­
date from eight to fifteen students.

The Qymnasium
In July 1931 the dream of many friends and alumni was realized;
work was started on the gymnasium. By Thanksgiving time it
was finished and ready for use.
The building contains a large gym floor with sizeable stage and
dressing rooms at one end so that the room can be used as an
auditorium and theatre. The main floor is large enough to permit
a division into two smaller gymnasiums.
There are also segregated locker room units, shower bath facili­
ties, and offices for both the boys’ and girls’ departments.
This building forms the center of the recreational life of the
school.

Library
The school possesses a fine library of about 7,000 volumes. Spe­
cial funds are available with which to purchase new books, the
best magazines, and newspapers.

The Farm
The school owns farm lands of some five hundred acres in woods
and tillable fields. In addition to the opportunity it offers for
outdoor recreation on our own property, it produces most of the
vegetables for the dining room, making it possible to offer an ex­
cellent table at low cost, not to mention fresh food the year
round.

The school is easily accessible by motor, being only eight miles
off the trunk line running from Portland through Lewiston, Au­
gusta, and Waterville to Bangor and beyond. Cars coming from
the West leave the trunk line at Winthrop; from the East, at
Manchester. By train, the town of Readfield is sixty-one miles
from Portland on the Maine Central Railroad. Connections may
be made from the West via Portland or Lewiston; from the North
via Waterville or Oakland; and from the East either via Water­
ville or via Brunswick and Lewiston. Winthrop is the nearest
point by Bus.

�Constructive Education
Students at Kents Hill receive constructive education. The cor­
relation of studies, sports, and recreation, together with the most
careful attention to individual needs build a solid foundation for
the future. Students are encouraged to seek guidance and assis­
tance in their studies if there are any problems which they cannot
surmount themselves.
Another important feature is our regulated study plan. Stu­
dents are in attendance over a concentrated period of five weeks,
at the end of which there is a short examination and a weekend
away from school. This period is followed by another of the
same sort, all leading to a final examination. Thus the student
is encouraged to call upon his powers of concentration over a
period of sufficient length to insure constructive results, yet not
long enough to prove fatiguing.

Religious Training
Religion is a vital part of every normal life. The religious train­
ing at Kents Hill endeavors to develop in each student sincerity
and reverence.
Although the school has enjoyed the patronage of the Metho­
dist Episcopal Church for more than a century, the religious train­
ing is non-sectarian. From eight to twelve denominations are
represented in the student body each year, and the headmaster
urges all students to strengthen their connections with their home
churches. A regular course in Biblical Literature is required of all
students and comes regularly once a week as part of the English
course. All students attend morning chapel and the Sunday ser­
vice at the village church. Permission is granted to those of the
Roman Catholic faith to attend services in a neighboring town.

Student Quidance
Educational guidance is recognized as a necessary part of the
modern school. Selection of studies which would be most bene­
ficial to the individual student is of the utmost importance.
Therefore, all courses are planned in consultation either with
the headmaster or with a member of the faculty.

Requirements for Admission
Students of good character who have successfully completed the
usual eight elementary grades are eligible for admission to the
secondary department. An honorable dismissal and a statement
of work from the preceding school are required.
Students who have had one or more years of work in an ac­
credited high school or academy may be admitted to the corre­
sponding year’s work in the school and may continue in that
class if they are able to do the work. Students from two-year
high schools and graduates from four-year high schools will find
courses of study well adapted to their needs.
The school reserves the right to decline the application of any
one who would not profit by the work of the school.

Requirements for Graduation

I

A successful completion of sixteen units of study plus the pre­
scribed study of the Biblical Literature and the required athletic
and gymnasium work are necessary for graduation. In the Col­
lege Preparatory Courses, the student must also be prepared to
enter the college of his choice.
For students entering from other approved secondary schools,
credit towards graduation will be given, unit for unit. Graduates
from such schools may graduate from Kents Hill on the comple­
tion of one or more full years’ work, consisting of at least four
units chosen with the approval of the headmaster. Ordinarily
this work must be of advanced grade and must include senior
English.
A “unit” of study is a subject requiring five (in some classes
four) prepared recitations a week for a school year, or ten class
room periods of work calling for no outside preparation.
To receive the school diploma, three-fourths of the work taken
must be of “C” grade or better. The grade of “D” is considered
a low passing mark and to those who receive the greater part of
their grades in this classification a certificate will be issued.

Admission to College
The College Preparatory Course is set up to meet the College
Board Examination requirements. The school is on the list of
■

{10}

�accredited schools of the New England College Entrance Certifi­
cate Board whose certificates are accepted by most colleges in the
United States which admit students by the certificate method.
A higher grade of work than mere passing is required for certification to most of these colleges.

Courses of Instruction
The courses of instruction are sufficiently flexible to prepare stu­
dents for college, scientific school, or business. A general course
gives to those who do not wish to enter college a broad, cultural
foundation.

I

Certain studies are fundamental to a well-rounded education.
Therefore, the full four year’s work in English, at least one unit
of mathematics, two of science, and two of history are required of
every student.

&lt;1

Thorough Training in English

I
&gt;

The school gives particular care and attention to English. Oral
and written themes are required throughout the course. In the
junior year, a four weeks’ course in expression which stresses
public speaking is given in the English Department. Students
become accustomed to correct English, learn to appreciate it and
to use it in everyday conversation.

In addition, a thesis or a long essay on some subject in which
the student is particularly interested is required of every senior.
It has been found by colleges and secondary schools alike that the
power to digest and reproduce the material which is found on the
printed page is sadly lacking in our boys and girls today. This
training, therefore, develops and broadens the student’s power to
express intelligently his own or another’s thought.

MusiC'Theory'Harmony
Piano instruction, courses in Harmony and Musical Theory may
be taken under a competent Conservatory graduate. They are
elective and count along with the other academic subjects for
diploma credits.

�Junior College Course

i

Kents Hill offers to high school graduates one and two year junior
college courses in secretarial science. The courses are designed
to give practical training in shorthand, typewriting, accounting,
etc., and to prepare the student for general office positions. The
one-year course is intensive in character and is set up to meet the
needs of those who wish to spend only one year in preparation.
The two-year course follows a more leisurely procedure, is broader
in scope, and offers a wider opportunity in the selection of elective
subjects.
The courses are open to all high school graduates without ex­
amination. A transcript of record and a certificate of graduation
from the high school principal are the only prerequisites.
As in the secondary school department, the administration re­
serves the right to reject any candidate who palpably would not,
by reason of nature, preparation or character be benefited by
membership in the institution.
The charge for board, room, light, heat, and instruction is
$525 for the year. For convenience, the tuition may be paid in
four instalments. The charge for instruction to day students is
$100 for the year. There are a few places for self-boarding stu­
dents at a charge of $30 a year for room rent.
A limited number of scholarships and student working assign­
ments are available which may assist in reducing expenses. Ap­
plication for such assistance should be made as early as possible
because there are not enough of these aids to meet the demand.
There are also limited funds for student loans. Scholarships and
student loans are described on pages 20 and 21.
The school offers a wide range of student activities including
sports, Outing Club, dramatics, literary societies, and social
affairs. These activities are considered by educators to contain
worth while educational values in addition to their primary
recreational purposes.

Special Courses
I

Those not wishing to take the complete work as outlined may
have special courses arranged to meet their individual needs.
Such arrangements must be made through consultation with the
faculty.

�Student Activities
Athletics for Boys
Every boy if able is required to take part in some form of athlet­
ics. The call of football, tennis, hiking, and Outing Club activi­
ties enables each one to enjoy some form of sport as soon as
school opens. Golf can be added if there is sufficient demand.
Membership in the Outing Club is open to all boys. Overnight
camping trips, woodcraft, mountain climbing, and canoe trips are
among the features of this Club.

Winter is particularly delightful. Snow shoeing, hockey, skiing,
and tobogganing are among the popular outdoor sports. For the
more experienced boys, a Winter Sports Team is organized under
whose auspices, in cooperation with the Outing Club, the Winter
Carnival is held. At the same time, the gymnasium is kept busy
with Varsity Basketball, Indoor Tennis, and Intramural Basketball
Leagues.

With the coming of spring, there is baseball and other season­
able sports. Kents Hill teams meet those from the foremost pre­
paratory schools and competition is indeed keen. At this season
the Outing Club fosters some of the longer mountain and canoe
trips. All in all, there is sufficient diversification to meet the in­
terests of everyone.

Athletics for Qirls
The principal sports for girls are field hockey, soccer, soft-ball,
volley ball, tennis, basketball, and outing trips. Teams are organ­
ized among the classes and compete with each other intramurally.
Either the championship team or a group of the best players are
selected for several games of interschool competition. All of the
facilities and equipment which the boys use is available for the
girls.
Each girl is required to choose some athletic activity in which
to obtain her physical recreation.

Gym in the background

�Water Sports - Canoe Trips
Kents Hill students have more than average opportunity for
swimming and other water sports. The school is actually sur­
rounded by lakes, several of which are visible to the casual eye.
Our own three-mile Lovejoy Pond which the school property
borders, is one of a series of nine connecting lakes, all accessible
by canoe. In these home waters under competent supervision,
the greater part of our canoe trips are taken.
For the more ambitious, there are longer trips close at hand.
The school is two miles from the Lake Maranacook chain and
only six miles from the nearest entry into the well-known Belgrades.

Outing Club
Closely connected to the preceding paragraphs on water sports
should come a word about the Outing Club. The Outing Club
headquarters is an attractive cabin on the shores of Lovejoy
Pond only a short distance from the school. This structure con­
tains a huge fireplace in the main Council Room, a kitchen built
on the rear where many appetizing meals are prepared, and a
roomy loft for sleeping quarters.
Heading up the work of the Outing Club is an honorary body ■
called “Trail and Stream,” membership in which must be earned
through definite work accomplished in carrying out the plans of
the Club. Through these activities the students have at their dis­
posal throughout the entire year the recreational and educational
advantages of the summer camp.

Dramatics
Dramatics have always played an important part in the life of
the school. With the completion of the new gymnasium and its
splendid facilities for play production, dramatics have taken on
new impetus and bid fair to become a feature of the school. The
educational values attending participation in amateur productions
have long been recognized. Rather than produce a few experts,
it will be our policy to extend the possibility of this form of ex­
pression to a large number of students.
Through the Dramatic Club, students receive instruction in
acting, scene construction, costume designing, and stage lighting,
after the manner of the Little Theatre. Each production is staged
entirely by the students under faculty supervision.
&lt;17}

�Literary Societies
The students maintain four literary societies — the Calliopean
and the Literati Societies for boys, and the Adelphian and Eromathean Societies for the girls. These organizations correspond
in importance to the fraternities and sororities of the colleges.
Each society has its own rooms furnished and equipped by the
members, and each has its weekly hour of meeting. Carefully
planned programs of literary and musical numbers, discussions,
and debates are among the many interesting events throughout
the school year. These societies give boys and girls invaluable
training in public speaking, parliamentary procedure, and dra­
matic or musical entertainment.

Other Societies
The Girl Reserves is an organization through which the girls
carry on their religious activities. Lectures, discussions, and as­
sistance in the support of some worthy cause are among the
principal activities.
The “K. H. Club” is an organization of boys who have won
their school letters in athletics. Through a high example of sports­
manship, the Club adds incentives for accomplishment and
leadership.
The school boasts of a Chapter of the Cum Laude Society,
membership in which is achieved through excellence in scholar­
ship. No emblem connected with the school is more highly prized
than the little gold key worn by the Society members.

l

i

�Expenses
The charge for board, room, light, heat, books, and instruction
for the school year 1939-1940 is $525.00. There are no other
school charges except those of the student organizations which
are largely a personal matter.
The charges are payable as follows:
$262.50
262.50

September 11
January 30

If preferred, the school expense may be paid as follows: At
least $131.25 will be required from all students on the opening
day of school, September 11, the balance for the first semester to
be paid November 1. Second semester payments may be made
as follows: $131.25 on January 30 and the balance on April 1.
Inasmuch as the school is not run for profit it has to insist
upon prompt payment of accounts. Therefore no students will
be allowed to take examinations unless their semester bills are
paid and no student will be allowed to begin a subsequent semes­
ter if the tuition of the previous semester remains unsettled.
Students whose bills are in arrears are subject to special attention
for collection.
In case parents wish the student to carry a charge account at
the bookstore, ten dollars should be added to each of these instal­
ments as a deposit on account.
No reduction in room rent or tuition will be made for absence,
except on account of serious and long continued illness. Stu­
dents who leave school for any other reason are liable for the
charge of the entire year.
A charge of two dollars is made for each semester examination
given at other than the usual time, and of one dollar for each
monthly or occasional test.
Breakage and repairs in excess of ordinary usage will be charged
against the occupant of each room.
Students having visitors for meals or lodging will have the
charges added to their term bill unless the guests pay. Parents
staying less than a full day, however, are asked to consider them­
selves as guests of the school.

•{19}

�j

Day Students and Self-Boarders
The charge for regular tuition for day students and for self-board­
ing students is one hundred dollars per year.
Convenient rooms are available for self-boarding students.
These rooms are furnished, supplied with electric light, and equip­
ped with a small stove, but have no steam heat. The cost is fif­
teen dollars per semester in Torsey, Ludden, and Chase Houses.

Student Employment
A considerable amount of janitor service, waiting on tables, and
other work is done by students who need assistance in meeting
their expenses. Such opportunities are, like the scholarships, as­
signed on the basis of financial need, personal character, and
accomplishment in studies.

Scholarships

J

I

I

I

V !

The following scholarships are available for covering part of the
tuition expenses of a limited number of students:
Sarah A. Edgecombe Scholarship Fund founded by Sarah A.
Edgecombe of Bath to aid students who may be deemed worthy
of aid, especially those who may be prepared to enter the Christian
Ministry.
Greely Scholarships, founded by the late Cyrus Greely of
Lewiston.
Eva Adams Scholarships established by Dr. Eva Adams of
Brunswick, Maine, to help deserving and needy students.
The Call Fund established by Elizabeth A. Call, the income to
be used annually to help deserving students.
The Alumni Fund established by alumni of Kents Hill for use
of needy and deserving students.
Jennie Philbrick Page Scholarship, founded by her sister,
Geneva Philbrick Browne. This scholarship is for girls, with
preference to residents of Maine.

{20&gt;
■

�The Lindsay Fund established by the late Agnes M. Lindsay of
Bridgewater, New Hampshire. The income from $15,000 is to be
used to aid deserving students from the towns of Howland, En­
field, and Lincoln, Maine. If there are no such students from
these towns at any time then the income from the fund shall be
applied for the aid of deserving students from the State of Maine.
A limited number of scholarships are offered to freshmen and
are assigned to geographical location.
A scholarship is available to the School Unions in the State of
Maine for assignment to Freshmen entering the Boarding Depart­
ment.
The scholarships are assigned for the semester. The applicants
must need help, must demonstrate good character by references
acceptable to the school and by conduct in the school, and must
expect to render some service to the school. Satisfactory work
must be maintained in studies, and preference will be given to
applicants maintaining honor grades.

Student Loans
The school has at present a small endowment which provides
limited funds for student loans. These funds may be borrowed
without interest under conditions similar to those governing the
assignment of scholarships.
Eliza A. Barnard Memorial Fund. The income from a fund
of $5,000 given by Charles A. Barnard in memory of his mother
Eliza A. Barnard is used in accordance with the conditions laid
down by the donor
“the income thereof to be loaned to
worthy students needing financial aid in pursuing their studies.
I desire that this shall not be regarded as a charity, and that those
so receiving such aid give their promissory notes therefor, pay­
able without interest at such times as the principal of said institu­
tion shall determine.”
H. C. Gleason Helping Fund. Mr. H. C. Gleason bequeathed
to the school $20,000 to be held until the accumulated interest
and principal amounts to $30,000. The interest from the fund is
then to be loaned to “deserving and worthy students of either sex
who have no other way of raising funds for an education .... pref­
erably to boy students from the farming communities of Maine

{21}

J

�to defray their school and college expenses at Maine Wesleyan
Seminary and College the same to be repaid to the school as
soon as students are able to do so.” The income from this fund
will be available at the present rates of interest in about five years.

Honors and Awards

I

The Honor List is composed of all students who have maintained
honor grades (A or B) in studies aggregating twenty or more
prepared recitations a week, or their equivalent. This list is made
up each month, but the permanent honor list consists only of
those who maintain an honor average throughout the year.
The Knowles Prize, given in memory of Mark T. Knowles of
Augusta by members of his family, is awarded to a Senior for
excellency in scholarship and other outstanding merit.
The 1913 Prize, given by the Class of 1913, is awarded at the
discretion of the headmaster; for the past few years he has
awarded it to that senior who in the estimation of the faculty
has exercised the greatest influence for good during the year.
The Kreger Prize established in 1937 by Jennie Flood Kreger of
Fairfield is awarded to that Junior who is outstanding in character
and scholarship and who plans to return to the school for the
senior year.
The Paul Prizes, given in memory of Dr. Willard A. Paul, of
Weston, Mass., are awarded to the two boys who have kept the
most orderly room during the year.

cA &lt;Word to Barents
Students should be provided with a complete outfit of bedding,
pillows, towels, napkins and napkin rings. Draperies, pictures
and rugs are desirable.
Clothing should be simple and comfortable. Heavy shoes,
overshoes, a warm overcoat, and suitable outdoor sport togs for
summer and winter are necessary. Students are definitely re­
quested to have their bedding and personal articles of clothing
marked with indelible ink. Slippers with soft heels should be
part of every girl’s equipment.
Girls are requested to purchase the regulation gymnasium suit
which can be obtained through the school at cost. High white
tennis shoes are required for indoor gymnasium work.

■{22}

I

�Laundry may be cared for through a local agency or be done by
competent women near the school. Many of the students send
their laundry home by mail, using convenient boxes designed for
that purpose.
Spending money should be limited to not more than one dollar
a week. Parents may make deposits of money at the school office
so that students may draw against these accounts for spending
money, Valuables and large amounts of money should not be
left in the students’ rooms; the school is not responsible for
losses. Arrangements may be made at the office for their safe
keeping.
Correspondence in connection with school business or with
special permissions for students should be sent directly to the
office and not to the students.
Possession of fire arms or fire works on the part of the students
is strictly prohibited.
Money cannot be advanced to students by the school except in
an emergency, and then only on instruction from the parents.
The school is prepared to care for simple ailments and to take
preliminary care in case of more serious illness, at least until the
parents can be informed. It reserves the right, however, to em­
ploy at once a physician or nurse at the parent’s expense, if the
case seems urgent. From our own experience with the ailments
which beset boarding school pupils, we have found that the con­
sumption between meals of rich food, candy, and the like, is for
the most part responsible. Parents are therefore requested not to
send boxes of food or candy. The school reserves the right to en­
force this suggestion whenever it may be deemed necessary.
A health certificate signed by the family physician is required of
all students.
In order to keep down irregularities there will be a charge of
five dollars for late return from vacations or weekends. For cuts
immediately preceding a vacation or weekend a charge of two
dollars will be levied for each class.
To prevent a misuse of electricity a charge of four dollars and
fifty cents a semester will be made for each light in addition to
those provided by the school.
Lessons in piano, organ, and violin are made by special arrangement with the Headmaster.

Friends of Kents Hill:

The good health of an independent secondary school is dependent on
many factors—a well trained and dedicated faculty, an attractive
physical facility, modem laboratory and library resources, scholarship
assistance for deserving students. It is our firm intention to bring these
elements together at Kents Hill.

1979-80 Needs:
Concert/Lecture Series .... 1,500
1,000
Infirmary Equipment ....
Video Tape and Cassette
3,000
Equipment
New Tractor for
8,000
Grounds Work
Scholarships for Deserving
15,000
Students

The essential prerequisite in obtaining each of these components is the
judicious use of sufficient funds to ensure excellence. As the cost of
providing a high quality educational experience continues to skyrocket,
the significance of Annual Fund gifts from alumni, parents, and friends
takes on added urgency. The support realized from your gifts provides
us the opportunity to achieve a higher level of quality. The funds
contributed last year enabled us to obtain computer and library resources
we could not otherwise afford, to carry out maintenance that would
have been deferred, and to offer scholarships that would not otherwise
have been available.

Total Annual Fund Goal for
1979-80: $47,000.
We believe that the purposes of the
1979-80 Annual Fund reflect a wide
variety of the needs and aspirations
of a preparatory school. You may
be assured that your gift will be
applied to an important range of
activities and will be administered
by conscientious stewards.

As we approach the 1979-80 Annual Fund drive, we are encouraged by
the sure knowledge that the skills, values, and discipline of a Kents Hill
education are more essential and appropriate than ever. We look to our
alumni, parent body, and friends to join us in a committed effort to
establish new levels of educational excellence on "The Hill".
Sincerely,

Donald M. Jacobs
Headmaster

�DEDICATION
To
the Memory of
FRANCES ANN DAVIS, A.M.,
Whose loving, loyal, untiring efforts
as teacher, advisor, and friend, won
for her the love, admiration and re­
spect of every one who knew her
this joint issue of the
Breeze and Alumnus
m respectfully dedicated.

�Wanres Ann Sants
It was many centuries ago that the old Greek philosopher
made the statement, “ Those whom the gods love die young.”
His real meaning remained an enigma until comparatively
recent years, when Robert Louis Stevenson discovered it to
be this: that those whom God really loves are never allowed
to grow old, but always remain young in spirit, regardless of
the number of years they are given to live.
Miss Davis seemed to possess this gift in a wonderful
degree. The writer did not have the privilege of knowing
her until time had begun to take its toll from her body and
her mind, but it was powerless to mar the indomitable youth
of her spirit. Her joy in her contacts with the pupils never
grew less, and she was always as happy as they at their return
to school. No girl of eighteen had a brighter or more hopeful
view of the future; in her mind each new year of the school
was the best that the school had ever had, and each new stu­
dent body was a better one than any of its predecessors. In
discussing school affairs she would not dwell upon the past, as
people of her age are wont to do, but she would refer to the
past only as it furnished a background for her faith in a
greater future for the institution she loved so well. And
greatest of all, her devotion to her Heavenly Father showed
at all times, in both word and deed, the fervor of a new
convert.
It is because of this wonderful trait that Miss Davis her­
self was typical of all that makes Kent’s Hill what it is; her
devotion to her religion, her faith in young people, her belief
that the future will always be an improvement on the past,
and her joy in giving her life to bringing that to pass, are the
foundation stones upon which the Seminary stands today;
they are the key-notes of its life and its service and its future.

T. W. W.

During the last three years of Miss
Davis’ life, she had a secretary, a
former student and teacher with her,
to whom she dictated many letters for
her beloved “ children ” and to whom
she told many incidents of the school
life of those children, as well as
stories of her own experiences. She
realized that she had but a little time
longer here and in speaking of the Life
Beyond, she said that her highest idea
of Heaven for herself would be that
there might be some there who knew a
little less than she did and she might
go on teaching.
This love for teaching was such a
part of herself that after she gave up
class-room work she was happy in
helping on a few backward students,
and, still later, in teaching her suc­
cessor in alumni work that the alumni
of Kent’s Hill are wonderful people —
almost without exception loyal to the
core, all bound together by Kent’s Hill
spirit, all proud of their connection
with the old school; that students of
only one year here may cherish its
memories as dearly as those who spent
four or five; that the comedies and
tragedies of their lives are more inter­
esting than written books, and, most
important of all, they must be loved,
individually and collectively with rare
Kent’s Hill love.
The facts of her life and the stories
are as she herself gave them, some of
them being taken word for word from
her lips.
Miss Frances Ann Davis was born
in Indiana, Sept. 8, 1848, daughter of
Charles and Esther Freeman Davis.

Her parents moved to Hallowell when
she was four years old. Her father
was in failing health at that time and
after his death she and her mother
lived with relatives in Chelsea, Hallo­
well and Gardiner while she was get­
ting her education.
In 186G, she came to Kent’s Hill to
school, and the room she occupied the
first night on the Hill was the one she
chose for hers when she resigned as
Preceptress and which she retained un­
til given the two rooms on the first
floor, a few years ago. She graduated
from the College course in 1868, one
of a class of thirteen, of whom only
two are now living.
Mrs. Mary Chapman Quick, one of
these two, writes: “ Fannie was very
dear to me. Being several years older
— more dignified and serious than I
was as a careless, happy schoolgirl,
she saved me from many a scolding
from dear Dr. Torsey, whom we all
loved so devotedly. Her influence was
felt by the whole class. She had a
kind word, and glad smile for all of
us. Gifted beyond the ordinary, she
has left behind a wonderful record.
We cannot wish her back. Her life
was filled with usefulness and she has
gone to her great reward.”
As long as she lived, she tried to
keep in touch with these classmates
and often spoke of them and the good
times they had in school together.
She spoke of a secret motto they
adopted, which was known by the
initials “ G. V. E.” As years went by
this motto was forgotten, but the in­
terpretation of it given by those not in

Miss Davis never went away from her
after that to teach.
“ Before I came to Kent’s Hill, my
mother and I lived with my uncle,
whose picture is in the old chest up on
the fifth floor. You remember I told
you about her accident. It was pretty
hard work getting along. I found it
was impossible to pay expenses for
Mother and myself teaching a little
country school with terms of eight or
nine weeks, at $5 a week, so I asked
Mother’s opinion of my branching out
and trying to earn more money. She
said she thought it was our duty to
stay with Uncle. I let it go at that for
a while, then one day I said:
“‘Mother, if Father had lived
would you have felt that it was his
duty and yours to stay here with
Uncle ? ’ 1 Why, no,’ said Mother.
‘Why not?’ I asked. ‘Why, he was
the wage-earner of the family,’ said
she, ‘ and of course he would go where
he could earn the most money, and I
should go with him.’ ‘ Then, Mother,’
I said, ‘ now that I am the wage­
earner, why aren’t you willing to go
with me? Now, look, let me try, just
try, to get a better situation and if I
can get one, you come with me and
look it over, and I promise you. that if
you don’t like it, I will come back to
Uncle’s and go on teaching the little
school and never mention it again.’
“ The opportunity came for me here
on Kent’s Hill and Mother saw at
once how much better it was than the
one I had, and she was perfectly will­
ing to come. And in her later days
she often said how glad she was she
wasn’t in a private home. She en­
joyed having the young life around
her. And the young folks seemed to

5

like her and were always lovely to her.
Of course she was in her wheelchair
a good deal of the time. I have an
apron my mother made here when she
was eighty years old.”
It was in the winter of 1882-3 that
Miss Davis began her long work as a
teacher. An old school-mate, Ellen
Hatch, (Mrs. Charles Parker, whose
death within a few weeks of Miss
Davis’ own we regretfully note in this
paper) was Preceptress. Miss Davis
loved to recall those days and the
romance that developed at that time.
“ One of the teachers, Charles
Parker, also a former student, was in­
clined to be very friendly.
Miss
Hatch was embarrassed by his atten­
tions and evaded them when possible,
making sure of the companionship of
one of her girl friends when there was
danger of his offering his escort. But
this friend soon surmised that the
young lady really cared for the gentle­
man, though not aware of the fact.
She therefore took him one side and
counselled him to leave her absolutely
alone and watch the effect. The effect
was as he desired. When he next
offered his attentions he was not re­
pulsed and when he offered himself,
he was accepted.”
The fall of 1883 was the time of the
historic high wind that blew the roof
from Sampson Hall, taking three
chimneys with it. Miss Davis said of
that time: “ My mother and I were
sleeping down on the first floor — the
third room as you come in. Suddenly
this awful crash came — with nothing
first. I said, ‘ Mother, there goes the
chimney I ’ Mother was never a nerv­
ous woman at all and I said, ‘ Now,
you lie right here and I will dress,' and

�6

THE KENT’S HILL BREEZE AND ALUMNUS

I got into my togs as fast as I could
and went out. Some of the girls were
there and there were several boys in
the girls’ hall. We had a very good
steward, Edwin R. French. He was
up there in no time at all, and so were
the boys, and I will say this — that
for every kind of emergency we have
had thus far, we have had some of
the best boys that anybody could ask
for, whether it was the fire, or what­
ever. And I could back it with proof.
Prof. McIntire and the other teachers
went right up and inside of two hours
the chimneys were under control and
the students quieted down.
“ One of the teachers, Prof. Strong,
lived outside and did not know any­
thing about it until next morning. He
was one of the most generous men you
ever saw. Fie was very quick and any
little thing would make him nervous.
This was characteristic of him: We
had a faculty meeting next day, of
course, and he said to Dr. Smith,
‘Well! Well! What shall we do?
What shall we do ? Put the roof
back ? ’ ‘ Oh,’ Dr. Smith said, ‘ I
think we had better allow the trustees
to take care of that.’ Prof. Strong
was ready to put his hand in his pocket
and put it back.”
Those were the days when all the
buildings were heated with stoves.
“ We had another scrape about six
o’clock one morning. It had been the
coldest night for the winter and I
heard Mr. French step out in the hall
and call to Frank Dow (who was cook
at that time) : ‘Frank! Bearce Hall
is on fire! ’ In two minutes’ time I
heard Mr. Dow say, ‘Boys! Bearce
Hall is on fire,’ and it wasn’t five min­
utes, and without one voice — I did

not hear one voice — those boys were
pattering along as fast as they could
go to Bearce Hall.
“ And the Principal of the school,
Dr. Smith, said he thought to himself,
‘ Now what in the world are those
boys doing! What are they up to at
this time of the morning! Guess I had
better get up and see.’ And before he
got dressed and out — those boys had .
the fire under control. I tell you now
— that old building — I didn’t know
till then how I loved it. When the ap­
praisers came, they said that no fire
force could have done what those boys
did. They acted as if used to it.
They went right at it. I suppose the
gentlemen teachers went with them;
they always do. When we have any­
thing the matter here, Our Boys have
measured right up to it. I KNOW
they have.
“ I think we want to be extremely
careful. Oh, I tell you we want to get
the best; I do not want them to make
so expensive a school that we cannot ’
keep our same kind of students, I
would a great deal rather keep our
country boys and our country girls
than to get a great lot of boys from
the city.”
Miss Davis was a member of the
Adelphian society and was alwavs
afraid of being thought partial to that
society. That she had the interests of
the Eromatheans also at heart is evi­
denced by her efforts in their behalf.
When Ricker Hall was built the
Eromatheans were promised a room in
it for their society hall but the exten­

reading desk. On the wall back of
this was a big brass clock.” And Miss
Davis’ remembrance of Dr. Torsey
was very vivid: “Dr. Torsey was a
very broad-shouldered man, with the
handsomest head I ever saw. He was
the most magnetic man I ever met, yet
he was simple and unaffected. I re­
member at prayer-meeting (we used to
have prayer-meetings in those days)
towards the close of the meeting he
would lay aside the cape which he was
in the habit of wearing and talk for
perhaps ten minutes or so in a very
kind, spiritual way, but in such a sim­
ple fashion that it was never beyond
the minds of any of the students. And
almost always I used to think, ‘Why
couldn’t I have thought to say that my­
self.’ ”
Another article which Miss Davis
was instrumental in having placed in
this room is the quaint and cumber­
some old signboard that used to swing
before the Moody tavern, perhaps the
only public house of Kent’s Hill his­
tory. The tavern belonged to Dudley
Moody, one of the men who put Kent’s
Hill on its feet financially in its early
days, and the old signboard came to
light when the Alhambra was demol­
ished. This ancient symbol of hos­
pitality meant much to Miss Davis as
she marked the changes since it
creaked and swung at the comer of the
Mt. Vernon road.
At the same time that this collection
of historical articles was accumulating,
newspaper men were seeking inter­
views and cameras were being used,
much to the disgust of Aunt Fan. She
said in this connection, “ I dislike more
than anything else having my picture

in the papers; it looks so absolutely
idiotic. I want to keep in the back­
ground just as much as I can. I told
‘ J. O.’ that if he didn’t see to it that I
wasn’t put into prominence in things,
I would make things warm for him
and I presume he has been shaking
ever since.” This distaste at being in
the lime light did not, however, apply
to her “ children,” else this article
would never have been written. The
beautiful tribute that William Wood,
of the class of ’92, wrote and which
was -published in both Breeze and
Alumnus, was printed with her full
consent but was forbidden to go " out
of the family.”
During the last few years, she had
what were formerly the steward’s
rooms on the first floor ‘ of Sampson
Hall and frequently said she was
afraid she was wicked to be so con­
tent: being in the place she preferred
to any other in the world, in comfort­
able rooms with her books; her
friends coming in to chat; letters con­
tinually reminding her of other
friends, and young folks surrounding
her all the time.
And the keen mind and strong will
that knew when her work as Pre­
ceptress should be ended and enabled
her to take a teacher’s position without
rancor or ever making things unpleas­
ant for anyone continued to mark the
times and the seasons until she knew
her life work was ended and she de­
sired, under her Heavenly Father’s
will, to be taken Home.
She passed away July 7, 1926 and
is laid to rest in the little cemetery at
Kent’s Hill.

Like a bird my soul has passed.

Straightway every weeping eye!

Out of which the pearl is gone.
The shell is broken, it lies there,
The pearl, the all, the soul is here.
Now the long, long wonder ends;
Yet ye weep, my foolish friends,
While the one whom you call dead
In unbroken bliss instead
Lives and loves you — lost ’tis true
In the light that shines for you;
But in the light you cannot see,
In undisturbed felicity —
In a perfect paradise,
And a life that never dies.
Farewell, friends, yet not farewell,
Where I go, you too shall dwell,

Be ye certain all seems love,
Viewed from Allah’s throne above
Be ye stout of heart and come
Bravely onward to your home!

THE KENT’S hill breeze and alumnus

Miss Davis
Miss Davis came to Kent’s Hill to
teach in the winter term of ’82-’83.
It has been my privilege to know her
as a student, as an associate teacher
and to have had her on the faculty
during the years I served as principal.
If I have been of some help and com­
fort to her in the last years of her life,
this too, has been my privilege, for I
owed her much.
As a student I was a member of her
class in Bible study, and what a teacher
she was! We all felt that she lived
daily the principles she taught us. It
is what a teacher is, rather than what
she teaches, that influences lives. We
may forget the French’, but we cannot
forget Miss Davis and her influence
on the character of her students.
She believed thoroughly in the princi­
ples of the founders and the builders
of the school, and maintained that
when the school forgets to emphasize
those principles, it has small reason to
exist. Yet her religion was liberal,
sane, practical. She looked for the
good in other folks and found it.
Her love for students never flagged;
her interest in them and their lives
ever followed them. This genuine in­
terest in students and alumni won for
her a unique place in their thought.
She was Kent’s Hill’s premier teacher;
first in the hearts of the school’s thou­
sands. She knew more alumni than
any person living and loved them all.
Great, kindly heart! it had room for
us all. Love begets love, and Miss
Davis was best loved of all Kent’s
Hill teachers.
Miss Davis lived to celebrate the
centenary of the school. How she
thought and labored to make the cele­
bration a success. Perhaps the effort

THE KENT’S HILL BREEZE AND ALUMNUS

was too much for her strength; she
was not so strong afterward.
I am glad that her last years were
so happy. Many times she said she
was living where she hoped to end
her years. The school was her life to
the end.
Miss Davis excelled in purity of
character; in genuine interest in her
students; in loyalty to the school and
to her associate teachers. For twenty
years she was preceptress, but no one
ever heard her utter a word of criti­
cism of her successors.
This noble woman of Kent’s Hill is
dead; but being dead she yet speaketh.
Death can not kill that which can
never die, a noble character.

J. 0. N.
Miss Davis
We are gathered for the funeral
service of Miss Davis, a long time and
honored teacher in this school. Our
presence here is an expression of our
respect and high regard for her.
This is not a time for sorrow or
lamentation. After years of intelli­
gent, sympathetic and highly efficient
service in developing brain power and
character, in life’s late eventide, after
failing physical powers had made her
pathetic, Miss Davis has graduated
from this life and entered the larger
life beyond. Let us lay away the out­
worn body, rejoicing with her that
her crowning time has come.
Miss Davis was the preceptress of
this school when I became its president
in 1902. She devoted herself without
stint to all school duties, and heartily
cooperated with me in efforts to
achieve the purpose of the school.
She was a wise and skillful teacher,
steadily and in a kindly spirit holding

her students to their best work. One
day she came to me and asked what
she should do with a student in whom
I was very personally interested. I
said, “ Show him no favoritism. Hold
him steadily to his best work.”
Later this student said to me complainingly, “ Miss Davis has it in for
me.” “ That is not so,” I replied.
“ She is doing just what I told her to
do, just what you need to have done.”
Still later he spoke to me in the highest
terms of Miss Davis and expressed to
me his sincere gratitude for what she
had done for him.
She ever sought the highest good of
the students of the school, and watched
over them with almost a mother’s love.
There were always some thoughtless
girls in the school to whom she gave
special attention and care. One of
these, I recall, thought her finical and
unreasonably exacting. In later years
I met this young woman, then married
and the mother of a little girl. Speak­
ing of Miss Davis this mother said, “ I
have a daughter growing up, and I
should like to place her under the care
of just such a teacher as Miss Davis.”
The time came when Miss Davis
thought she ought to lay down the
duties of preceptress. No one, so far
as I knew, had even hinted such a
thing to her. She came and told me
her purpose to resign. My attempt to
change this purpose availed nothing.
She expressed a desire to have a room
on the fourth floor of the dormitory
so that she might be out of the way,
and added, “I do not wish to be a
hindrance in any way to my suc­
cessor.”
I urged her not to take a room on
the fourth floor as climbing so many
stairs would be too burdensome.
“ Take any room in the building that

11

you want.” But she insisted that she
wanted a room on the fourth floor and
took it. Her successor always found
a true and loyal helper in Miss Davis.
She was a godly woman.
She
loved God and gave herself actively to
the Christian work of the school, and
contributed generously of her sub­
stance to church and reformatory
work.
It is very fitting that this brief
service should be held in these rooms
in this building where so large a part
of her life work was done. We are
not alone here. With us is an unseen
multitude who as students in this
school felt the touch and influence of
Miss Davis’ life. They ever bless her
in memory and today sorrow with us
that we shall see here her face no
more.
Wilbur F. Berry, ’76.

The Burial of Miss Frances A. Davis
The skies above seemed mournful
And shed such tender tears,
While friends and close associates
Of many blessed years
Bore to its peaceful resting place
And laid her form away
Until the final summons
Of The Resurrection Day,
So white her soul, benign her life.
Sweet, modest, and so rare;
A host of friends arise to bless
And praise her everywhere.
She is not dead! One never dies
Who lives so worthily;
With honors crowned she changed this life
For immortality.
May many feel the sacred fire,
And fan it to a flame.
Fulfilment of her high desire.
Her coronet of fame!
Rw. William Wood, Wilton, Maine.
(The Burial was amid the notables whose
glorious lives are enshrined in the hearts
and memories of a vast host of admiring
students, at Kent's Hill, July 9th, 1926.)

THE KENT’S HILL BREEZE AND ALUMNUS

De-de
What can one adequately say of
the life and personality of Miss
Davis? Everyone who attempts to
will say it — and no one will say it.
She was herself. As one of her most
devoted friends said at her funeral,
“ Her face betokens character.” And
that is why language, which is de­
signed to express general qualities,
fails to interpret this truly great
woman. But, fortunately for many,
perhaps most of those who will read
this issue, it is not necessary to deliniate her; they know.
By comparison we may say that,
more than is the lot or the attainment
of most people, her life was dominated
by love. Her love was not that senti­
mental thing that can see no fault in
its object. Lofty in standards, in­
tellectual and moral; keen in discrimi­
nation; and endowed with the saving
grace of humor; she still loved, even
where she could not approve.
Hence it happened that she was
wise. There is a much neglected
verse in one of the epistles of St. Paul
that says, not that knowledge is the
basis of wisdom but love. Her advice
was sought by old and young, and
confidently.
Sympathy and wise
counsel were assured in advance.
What a friend she was!

Carlisle, Pa., Oct. 23, 1926.

Miss Davis as I Knew Her
When Miss Davis first went to
Kent’s Hill as a teacher, in the winter
of 1882-3, I was a student in my
junior year. I think I was the first
girl to whom she spoke, asking some
question about the building. That was
the beginning of our acquaintance.
I was in her French and German
classes, and soon learned that nothing
but thorough work and close attention
was allowed there. Soon I learned
that the careful, conscientious teacher
was a warm and loving friend. Her
room was always open to us, and she
was never too busy to give the needed
word of help or advice.
Miss Davis’ first visit to me in my
own home was thirty-five years ago.
Since then she has come to me many
times. It became her custom to spend
a part of every summer with a few of
us in western Massachusetts, who
were her old boys and girls. As she
came year after year, she entered into
our family lives and shared our joys
and sorrows, and watched our chi dren grow up. She called them her
“ grand children.”
..
When Leon McIntire was a sma
boy, he called her “ De-de ”•
e

she may have thought of various poli­
cies at Kent’s Hill, she always defend­
ed them. The only time I ever saw
her show anything like anger, was
once when someone made a remark
which she mistakenly thought was' a
slur upon Kent’s Hill. Like a flash
she answered with a sharp retort.
All the students were her children,
and she believed in them like a mother.
They might have faults, but she was
sure that the faults would be over­
come. Indeed it was her “ word fitly
spoken ” that set many a boy and girl
in the way of overcoming.
Dede’s last visit to me was in 1923.
During her stay we were favored with
calls from several old Kent’s Hill
friends. Lyon and Lulu Norton came
one day, bringing Professor McIn­
tire, and another day, Ada Femald
Starks and her family brought Doctor
Smith, who was visiting them. As
soon as Doctor Smith and Miss Davis
got together they were oblivious to
the rest of us. They were so happy
and planned so much for the Kent’s
Hill centennial the next year. It was
not to be as they planned.
I am so glad that I was with Miss
Davis a few days Commencement
week this year. She was ven’ feeble
and her memory was failing, but her
love for her children never failed.
She said to me, “ I often dream that I
would like to have all my boys and
girls here on the campus down below
Sampson Hall, all together once.” I
replied, “ You ’ll have them all to­
gether in Heaven, Dede.”
“ Yes,” she answered, and seemed
satisfied. I think there could be no
Heaven for her if she missed one of
her children.

If there are guardian angels, she is
still watching over every one of us,
for her love will never fail.
Winifred Ware Bodfish,
College 1884-

Miss Davis was a friend to me for
more than forty years, and it seems
to me that no one ever had a better
friend. First, she was my teacher,
and a good one, too. Then I went
back to Kent’s Hill to teach, and we
were teachers together. Was there
ever a better person to work with?
When I had a home of my own, for
a part of every summer till these last
years, when she could not come, she
was a cherished guest. How we all
looked forward to the coming of
“ Dede ”, as the children called her.
How we miss her.
The traits that made her such a
loved friend stand out as we think over
the days when we had her. Full of
fun she was. Her sense of humor
carried her over many hard places.
Keen mentally, she saw all sides of a
question, and was fair.
Unselfish
almost to a fault, she thought of
others first. Loyal to the core, she
did not drop unkind words or insinua­
tions. Her whole life and method of
thought was built on honesty and sin­
cerity.
Others will speak of what she
meant to Kent’s Hill, how her per­
sonality has made a continuous influ­
ence, and has held together the best
traditions of the school through all
these years. We, her “ children ”,
know that the influence of her rare
life lives on in our hearts.
Lulu Adams Norton, Col. ’86.

THE KENT’S hill BREEZE and alumnus

I first knew Miss Davis when I
was at the Hill as a student in the fall
term of 1885 and the spring term of
1886. As it happened to me, if not
most of the students, it was only a
short time before naturally and more
or less frequently I called on her, al­
though I was not in any of her classes.
What attracted me to her is, no doubt,
the same that attracted all the other
students. I cannot define it and will
not try to.
For forty years I knew her and during all that time it was the most
natural thing in the world for me,
whenever at the Hill, to spend a little
time with her.
To me, the outstanding thing about
Aunt Fannie was this: As I know, not
only from my own experience, but
from observation and from conversa­
tion with other of her boys and girls,
she never made you feel “mean
m—”
”,
Whatever you did or whatever kind
of a boy or girl you were, she never,
by direct words or by implication,
scolded or upbraided or criticised.
You were always pretty sure that she
knew what kind of a boy or girl you
were, and whether you^ were doing
right: or doing wrong. You were also
sure !she loved you and believed in ;---- &gt;
you,
and it was jjust absolutely impossible
to call on her or be with
her.■ or talk
-----with her without going away withi an
impulse or determination to live and
to act and to be just as near to her
ideals of living and action as possible.
F. E. Eastman, '86.
She was a wonderful friend and I
shall never cease to be thankful for
her sympathy and love. I have neve_
seen anyone who had such an inex­
haustible store of interest and helpful-

ness on which her friends could al­
ways depend.
Helen Guernsey Sprague.

Her memory will live in the minds
of the thousands of boys and girls she
has helped to be better men and
women.
E. A. Strout, ’90.

I know tributes will come from all
over the land, and mine is from an ob­
scure person so far as the world goes,
yet I feel I would like the Kent’s Hill
world to know how Miss Davis impressed one, not always in full sympathy with everything inculcated by
the institution during his short stay on
the Hill.
Learning of the death of an old
friend is always saddening, because of
the vacancy in life’s contacts. One
finds that lasting friendships&gt; are selJ-- made
’ 'late
■ •in life, and• the
•’ impres­
dom
sions of youth are lasting, hence we,
who came under the benign influence
of our old friend, feel this morning as
though a part of life was gone. On
the other hand, when one has reached
the fullness of years, and the physical
body has readied its natural decay,
what a joy the release must be to the
dear soul passing into the new life of
restfulness and continued growth. So
we are happy for her, gone to join her
dear mother and loved ones gone be­
fore.
Miss Davis was one of the quiet
persons whose life was full of the best.
No youth who came under her influ­
ence was forgotten by her, nor she bj
him. Her sweet face with its kindly
eyes, shaded by the glasses which
seemed a part of her, can never be
forgotten. Her many acts of kindli­
ness to the boy or girl, who came un-

THE KENT’S HILL BREEZE AND ALUMNUS

der her care, never lose their influence
in their lives.
Although it was over 43 years since
the writer first came in contact with
Miss Davis at the Hill, that first inter­
view will remain a sweet memory.
She was so kindly, so interested to
help the boy in his latest phase of life.
So sincere in it all, that he could but
feel, in her, he had a real friend, and
so it proved. Although as the years
passed, activities of life took the boy,
and the man, over much of this earth’s
surface, far away from sight or touch
with the Hill, yet I believe one of the
strongest influences from that source
was the influence of Fanny Davis,
striving in her quiet way (never sanc­
timonious) to do some real good to a
strange boy. I think more than 18
years passed between leaving the Hill
and meeting Miss Davis again, and I
think I saw her but twice in all after
1883. She was the same interested
friend who wanted to know the details
of the boy’s struggles with life, his
happinesses, successes and failures.
She had a word of commendation for
what she saw as good, and the same
smiling condemnation for what she
deemed bad, in what he told her. The
real qualities of a true friend, that be­
ing, so rare in life’s contacts. Al­
ways through the years she kept her
interest. Now and then a letter, but
very seldom even that, yet she never
forgot, as shown by the reports of
mutual acquaintances who through the
years came in touch with both of us.
It was but a few weeks ago, as she lay
a helpless invalid, a friend called to
see her. She made enquiry and sent
messages of love and friendship, such
as come from the truly unselfish one
to those to whom she renders service.
Such a life as hers, filled with good

15

works and service for others, especially
youth, seems of the highest type one
can attain. How much greater than
the amassing of fortune, the gaining
of worldly high position, the applause
of the multitude? Her life was a ful­
filling of the Master’s ideals. Cer­
tainly I have known few followers of
Jesus Christ who left a deeper impres­
sion of his life and teachings than
Fanny Davis did on my life. She at­
tained the “ Christian Graces ” be­
cause she was first fully equipped with
the “ Pagan Virtues ” and prepared to
receive the higher qualities.
I like the old Catholic expression,
“ God rest her soul! ”
O. O. Howard, '8-j.

I do not really mourn Miss Davis’
departure except as I had cherished a
grain of hope that I might, by some
dispensation of Providence, see her
again. Supremely blessed was her life
and doubtless her death also. I have
been estimating that possibly 8,000 or
10.000 young meh and women have
come under her influence; probably
5,000 to 6,000 homes or more have
been made better by her life and teach­
ing. She has achieved a wonderful
triumph and now she has “ Arrived ”
as the Africans express it when one of
their number dies. Instead of speak­
ing of the “ Dear Departed ” they say,
“He has arrived.” Good! God is
not the God of the dead but the God
of the living and death is simply get­
ting home.
It will not be long, I am sure, before
someone starts a Memorial to her dear
name for the old School. I want to
be in that, somehow.

Athletic Notes
Football started this year with a
rush, about twenty-five men reporting
for suits. Our new coach, Mr. Davis,
and Captain Tapley immediately got
down to business with the sole idea in
mind of beating Hebron. After but
two short weeks of fundamentals and
ground work, and but one short scrim­
mage, we played our first game. This
game was merely a practise one, how­
ever, to show the Coach what kind of
material he had. The Notre Dame
team had already played a couple of
games and when we held them 0-0 we
were sure that Kent’s Hill had the
makings of a fine team.

The following Saturday the Hill­
toppers journeyed to Bucksport to
play E. M. C. S. in the first scheduled
game of the year. Here we first en­
countered the deadlock jinx that was

destined to pursue us the rest of the
season. Aided by some very poor
officiating, Bucksport held us 0-0 al­
though the ball was continually in
Bucksport territory. Kent’s Hill de­
cidedly out-played the Bucksport boys
by at least two touchdowns. There
were no individual stars.

marred by many penalties, several of
these costing Kent’s Hill a chance to
score. The final score showed M. C.

The following Saturday, Kent’s
Hill went to Waterville to play their
first college freshman game of the sea­
son with Colby. The game resulted in
another scoreless tie. Kent’s Hill’s
chances of winning were lost on ac­
count of the numerous inj’uries from
the M. C. I. game. The game was
featured by Freddie Leighton’s run­

The next week came another fresh­

Frosh.
Kent’s Hill after playing
rings around their opponents, emerged
the victim of a few tough breaks. At
the end of the first half. Kent's Hill
had the ball on Bowdoin’s five yard
line but the whistle blew before they
could put it across. In the last two
minutes to play, the Hilltoppers
worked the ball down to Bowdoin’s
one yard line when the whistle again
blew, ending the game. The whole
team played well. Bowdoin 7; Kent’s

Next came a week of general pep­
ping up in preparation of the coming
battle with our tradtional rivals,
Hebron. More spirit was shown this
year than in many previous years and
so, in order to show appreciation to
the backing of the student body, the
team went to Hebron and played the
“ Big Green ” off their feet, coming
home the victors, 7-0. The whole
team, as is always the case in a
Hebron-Kent's Hill game, played a
wonderful brand of football.
Al­
though both teams played hard, there
were but two penalties, both of these
being for offsides, one on K. H. and
the other on Hebron. Leighton and
Curry pulled off some sensational
runs; Curry dashing sixty yards for

In conclusion, the coach and the
team wish to thank the student body
for their fine spirit and cooperation.
They wish also to extend their thanks
to R. C. McIlroy, ’01, of Lewiston,
for the fine blankets which he present­
ed the Athletic Association just before
the Hebron game and which no doubt
aided them materially in defeating
Hebron. The team could do no less
after such a fine display of Kent’s Hill
spirit by both alumni and students.

Youth saw a beacon on Kent’s Hill,

Y. M. C. A.

The Y. M. C. A. meetings have
made a good start under the presidency
of Andrew Ellis.
We found that the “Y” has been
laboring under difficulties for the first
few weeks because of other activities
which have filled the interest of the
fellows.
Plans are being made for frequent
socials during the winter months.
Work has started on the Y. M. C. A.
fund, and it is hoped that a substantial
increase may be made on it before the
closing of the school year.
With the start that the “ Y ” has
made, and with the efforts of the mem­
bers that are back of it we feel con­
fident that the organization will remain

25

an important factor throughout the
year.
Mr. Hamlin has been with us at
two meetings, and gave us interesting
talks which we all enjoyed — we hope
you may be with us again, Mr. Ham­
lin.
We were fortunate in having Mr.
Newton for our speaker at our second
meeting, and we are looking forward
to the time when he may speak to us
again.
The meeting of November 18 was
short, and Philip Greenleaf was elected
secretary.

Y. W. C. A.
The new officers in the Y. W. C. A.
are: President, Virginia McFadden;
Vice-President, Dorothy Hill; Secre­
tary. Mary Field, and Treasurer,

The first meeting this year was held
in the Y. W. C. A. hall on Oct. 14th
and Mrs. Hamlen spoke on the sub­
ject of future work. Mrs. Hamlen is
the Y. W. C. A. counselor for this

DEATHS
Hon. Waldo Pettingill
Hox Waldo Pettingill, member of
th*e Board of Trustees since 1902, died at
his home in Rumford at the age of eightytwo. He was prominent in the upbuilding
of Rumford, had served as county commis­
sioner six terms, state senator in 1890,
member of the Governor’s Council 1893-4,
representative to the legislature in 1900 and
and served as chairman of the Sturgis
Commission under Gov. Cobb. He was
known as the Father of the Town of Rum­
ford.
Mr. Fred E. Eastman, president of the
Board of Trustees, in writing of Mr. Pet­
tingill, says: “ As I recall him over quite
a span of years, it seems to me that his
judgment was invariably sound. He never
was hasty in his statements or decisions
but when he did speak his advice was fol­
lowed. He was a progressive man and
never hesitated to vote along the line of
any improvement that seemed to the ad­
vantage of the School, even if it took con­
siderable courage to venture. He was also
most generous in his gifts of money, never
failing to respond when called upon. The
fact of his connection with the School,
well-known as it has been, was of great
value to the school. He was devoted in a
wholehearted way to his Church (the
Methodist Episcopal) and I believe he took
great satisfaction in supporting this School
because of its connection with and because
of the support it always has received from
those in our State of that denomination.
It really seems to me that it is impossible
to fill the place of such a man as he was.
His going is a distinct personal loss to me.

Nathan Webb, ’87

Alumni of the ’80s are sorry to learn
of the death of Nate Webb, in Pasadena,
California, Sept. 3, following a year or
two of poor health.
Mr. Webb entered the Seminary in the
spring term of 1887, rooming with our
Trustee, Carter B. Keene, Esq., of Wash­
ington, D. C. Nate was popular in school
and wielded a heavy stick in the baseball
team. He was a member of the Literati
society. After leaving school he taught
successfully in several places and was for
some years the principal of China Acad­
emy.

About fifteen years ago, Mr. Webb
moved to California where he worked as a
carpenter. For some years he was on
Mount Wilson, where he had charge of
the building of the Carnegie Observatory
and associated buildings.
As is well
known, this Observatory houses the largest
telescope in the United States, the hundred
inch reflector, the massive steel units of
the observatory had to be taken to the
summit of Mount Wilson, 6000 ft. in ele­
vation; no small feat in engineering in
itself. Nate’s sound common sense pre­
vailed over all obstacles. On completion
of the observatory, Mr. Webb purchased
the bus line from Pasadena to Mount Wil­
son, later expanding the business to include
two other lines, operating in all some
thirty or forty large busses. In this busi­
ness he associated with himself, his daugh­
ter, Ola Webb Hendricks, ’09, Mr. Frank
Hendricks, his son-in-law, and his brotherin-law, Edward Hamilton, ’87. The fail­
ing health of Mr. Webb led to the sale of
this successful business. A further sad
loss came in the death of his daughter,
Ola, who had been such a staunch support’
While a student at Kent’s Hill Mr. Webb
met Miss Ella Hamilton, ’87, whom he
later married and who survives her hus­
band. Mrs. Webb has the profound sym­
pathy of a wide circle of friends in the

double loss of Ola, whose death occurred
last January, and now her husband.
Ola was in the prime of her life, with
seemingly everything for which to live.
Active, energetic, possessed of the sound
common sense of her father, she was his
righthand supporter. She had a cool head
and when the need arose, could drive an
eighteen passenger bus up Mt. Wilson
with the best of the drivers. She left her
husband, Mr. Frank Hendricks, and two
children, Frank and Mildred.
’65

Within a few weeks of the death of
our beloved Miss Davis, one of her
lifelong friends, Mrs. Ellen Hatch
Parker, of Pasadena, Calif., passed
away. Mrs. Parker was Preceptress
here for several years at the beginning
of Miss Davis’ teaching and kept her
interest in the school as long as she
lived, though she never returned even
■ for a visit. She was born in Maine,
Dec. 9, 1843, and died in Pasadena,
Calif., July 15, 1926. In 1871 she
married Charles H. Parker, who had
also been a student and teacher at
Kent’s Hill and who died several
years ago. She was much interested
in the Woman’s Foreign Missionary
Society of the First M. E. Church of
Pasadena. Her love for our school is
shown in the following lines: —
" To far off lands our feet may stray
But wander where we will
The loveliest, dearest spot on earth
Will ever be — Kent’s Hill.”

Mrs. Henrietta Freeman Sampson,
of Manchester, passed away Sept. 18.
Word has been received of the

May 23, 1925, at the advanced age of
ninety-seven. After the death of MrParker, in 1880, Mrs. Parker brought

Mrs. Ellen (Dunn) Spaulding, of
Belgrade, passed away this fall at the
age of 72 years. Her husband, Frank
P. Spaulding, ’78, and a daughter,
Mrs. Frances Hanna, survive her.

The school has lost a staunch
friend in the death of Wm. C. Robin­
son, of No. Anson. Mr. Robinson
was widely known as the famous rail­
road builder of Alaska; and also well
known for the keen interest he took in
orcharding, which he made his hobby
after his return to Maine. The
Alumnus extends sympathy to his
widow, Mrs. Evie Gray Robinson, ’83,
and family, two of whom are also old
students of the school, Mrs. Carrie
Robinson Wing, T3, and Miss Kate G.
Robinson, all of N. Anson.
As the Alumnus goes to press we
learn of the death of our trustee, Dr.
Willard A. Paul. Further notice will
be given in the next issue.

�ODE
Long before the printed word
Minstrels told of war and strife.
Through the ages men have fought
To keep their sacred way of life.
May we, our country’s youth and hope,
Accept the challenge of our age
And with God’s guidance amply blest
Write for man a better page.
As we undertake the task,
These nothing ever can erase —
Memories of the friendships made —
They in our hearts find welcome space.
Campus scenes of fall and spring,
Winter moonlight on the snow,
Cheers, exams, our favorite tunes,
Hummed to waltzes soft and slow.
Songs we’ve sung and games we’ve won,
And tower bells that proudly tolled,
Classes, sports, and fun we’ve shared —
These memories will not grow old.

today’s activities will always be part of the Kents
Hill scene in our hearts.
And so, we say to all of you, goodbye and

��Sculpt ure
It's not farewell. It's hello
The work is over, the doors swing wide
And a glare so bright shines from
Your Choices, you must squint to decide

Have you ever seen a dolphin
Clide beneath the waves
Free and fast, unassuming
Exploring currents, rifts and caves

As for what you've done
That's the point, you've done it
Successful, complete, finished
You fought the war and wzon it

Remember the dolphin
Who searches to satisfy a whim
Doors are open for you now
But always have been for him

Don't look back
Except for reference
Or instead of growing you’ll shrink
What's your preference?

Hello, new w-ay of life
You hold the strings, everyone
Be sure to keep them yours
Or someone will pull you undone

Hello, hello, oh blossom
Flower with infinite petals
Which shall I pluck and cherish
This one of velvet pink or this, of blue metal

It's not safe, far from it
Security is a rare and treasured thing
But who needs it when
All you do is get tangled in the thing

Plod on oh downward gazer
Every success is of chance
Unless your head is lifted
And you dance, dance, dance

Love, express, create, grow
Your only limits are realizing them
Imagine a wave breaking or a leaf sprouting

Reach up, reach out
Strain to get a grip
Upon the sweetest nectar
Keep try ing, you'll get a sip

Your mind is a whole, your body too
Think out and away
Lea\ e home base, learn to fly
Life is but a ball of clay.

A Special Thanks
Good,
the more
communicated,
more abundant
grows.

— John Milton

It is truly a rich honor to be awarded the 1983 "Polaris" dedication. I have not
known any other recognition greater thus far in my life. The "Polaris" is a symbol
of many good values we cherish in our nation. As graduates of the Kents Hill
School ready to venture into the world, I encourage you to promote these
values in the universe that you inhabit. Humanity is crying for leadership,
courage, fortitude and honor. The Class of '83 represents hope for the future.
Mr. Jeff Beedy said it well in his address to the senior assembly. His message was
that we will become richer individuals when we have given "100%" of ourselves
in a good way. I would once again like to thank Mr. and Mrs. Hansen for their
help in putting together this book of memories. Also, I would like to thank josh
Eichenhorn for what he has done over a four year period. Thanks as well for
Greg Galeota. Finally, I would like to recognize Ion Long for the beautiful poetry
found on the first page and the last page of this book.
Very truly yours,
Peter Roberts

�Unlucky Breaks Result in Losing Football Season
The season looked to another repeat of last year's but something happened along the way which deflated the
once high flying Huskie balloon. The boy's football team began on a strong note posting two shutouts over Proc­
tor and Maranacook. Parents day weekend rolled around but there was no game. Blame not the weather or
disease or the other team's failure to show. The fact of the matter was simple, there wasn't any team to play. For
some unexplained reason there was never any game scheduled for that date. So, momentum broken, and in the
words of head Coach Newton Brooke, "That break in the schedule hurt us without question." A freak play
against Holderness cost the Huskies a win in the following week. A batted pass followed by a defensive tackle
catch subsequently running for 65
yards for a TD turned out to be the
worst kind of luck one could ever
dream of but it happened. Bad
weather hurt the Huskies' play
against Hebron and Tilton. The
team finished with a 3-5 record. Joe
Driscoll was selected All-League
quarterback. John Morey, Tom
MacDonald, Joe Macomber were
also named All-League for their
football laurels. The JV team was
undefeated in the prep league.
They are to be commended for a
fine season.
The best in the business, Joe Driscoll will be trying his arm out next year at U-Mass.

Field Hockey Team and Season Respectable
Coaches Meg Rand and Betsy Bowen were satisfied
with a successful fall for 1982. The Team finished with
a 6-5-1 record. It was deemed particularly good in light
of the fact that our team was one with many new
faces. Led by high scorer Kim Sullivan, Huskie field
hockey traveled the state playing an exciting brand of
hockey. Next year's team will miss the services of
seniors Sarah Worth, Lynda Manheimer, Sandy Starr,
Cindy Curry, and Kim Sullivan.
These people are to be commended for their fine

efforts in Kents Hill field hockey play. Next year's team
can look forward to the likes of Lisa Loughlin, Sue
Gann, Temole Parker and Dina Darling returning.
These players should make a strong core in which to
mold another team around. JV field hockey under
coach Betsy Bowen logged a positive season as the
team continued to master new skills throughout the
fall. Led by players Judi Hansen, Mary Ann Collela the
squad came together to play some inspiring games as
winter approached.

1983 JV Squad

Soccer Season Marked With Victories and
Surprises

30

One would be hard pressed to come up with any complaints about the final outcome of the 1982 varsity soccer
season. It was truly a season any coach would be proud of. It was a season full of surprises which included victories
over the Bates College frosh, two key victories over Gould and a stunning victory over Fryeburg. Goalie Steve
Smith was named first team All-Star as was veteran Ron Gee. Henry Odgen, Wayne Randall, John Cartledge, Corey
Judd were named to the All-Star second team. Jeff Beale was chosen by his teammates as the MVP for his efforts as
a sweeper back. Blessed with tremendous speed, Beale broke up opposing offensive drives time after time. Chris
Galeota plugged the middle on defense while on the wings the team was blessed with the talent of Steve Lebowitz
and Henry Odgen. Veteran player Ron Gee once again did it all. The very talented Gee played both ways. As a for­
ward his speed proved to be too difficult for most if not all the fullbacks around the league. On offense, he scored
a number of important goals. He is to be commended for a fine 4 year career and the team of 1983 is also to be
lauded for one great season.

�Cartledge and "New Breed" Provide
High Flying Excitement on Ice
While most of us were sleeping, the Huskie hockey was practicing their game in the Kennebec Ice Arena. These
odd workout hours did not stop the team from experiencing one of the most successful seasons in recent past. In
past years the team has had to struggle just to post a winning season, but under new head coach Kevin Matson and
assistant Coach Mike Elberty and a "new breed” of Huskie Icemen things turned dramatically. One must give a lot
of credit to the play of goalie Chris Galeota. A fine
athlete, Galeota displayed finesse and experience.
Recognition must also be given to Kevin Gill and Jeff Len­
non for their defensive laurels. John Cartledge led the of­
fensive parade. Strong and crafty Cartledge scored an
amazing 27 goals. Bob Pope's offensive moves dazzled
opponents as well as fans. Bob Callahan, another "offen­
sive weapon” had according to his coach Kevin Matson a
terrific knack for being around the goal at the right time.
The season was highlighted with a tour to Canada in
which the team came back with a two game sweep. In
addition there were some blistering victories over
Bridgton Acad. NYA, (the second best team in the state).
The Huskies lost close games to Bowdoin JVs and the
number one team in Maine, Lewiston.

�Dry Land Training Beneficial
to Skiers in Snowless Season
Despite a lack of snow, hard work paid off for this year's ski
teams. Our Alpine A boys team ended up second as a team in
the Class A regionals with Chris Cavin capturing a first place in
the slalom. Cavin, from Colorado, displayed a positive attitude
throughout the season in spite of the fact that the skiing was far
from what he had been used to. Only a junior, he should be a
top contender next year. Corey Judd and Jock Wright tied for
third in the MAISAD private league in the slalom. Judd in the
words of his coach seemed to realize his potential in his senior
year. The boys Alpine B team won the State slalom. Leading the
way was David Lewis. Our coach, Jeff Beedy was 1 of 45
selected to the U.S. ski school team, where he trained with the
Mahre brothers. Mr. Beedy brought to Kents Hill many of the
dry land training techniques that he learned at the school.
These exercises included a diverse
array of activities like roller
skating. The girls ended their
z
Alpine season at .500. Sarah
Worth and Lynda Manheimer
proved to be steady competition.

�Coach Jeff Beedy Departs, Contributions Remain
The year 1983 marked the end of Mr. Jeff Beedy's coaching career at the Kents Hill School. We are all saddened by his
departure from the community, but the community will always be proud of his accomplishments and contributions he has
made to the ski program. Over the years Mr. Beedy has attempted to instill a sense of pride in the many athletes he has
coached in skiing. He has taught young skiers about skiing as a total sport. Maintaining equipment has been just as important
as ski technique. Mr. Beedy has emphasized the importance of good sportsmanship in skiing and how it relates as a part to
cone's whole lifetime experience. He has sought to build a program where all levels of skiers could enjoy success. The em­
phasis was on skiing as a team sport not an individual one. For Jeff Beedy, team commitment was the most important ingre­
dient for success. Winning, however, was not an end goal. The centerpiece for Mr. Beedy’s ski program was fun and
development. When asked what he will miss about coaching skiing at Kents Hill, Mr. Beedy replied, "The interaction with

�Freshmen Carry Cross Country Team
It may not have been a banner year in terms of
snow and talent but future years should benefit from
the experience gained on the part of a very young
cross-country squad. Most of the scoring in meets was
provided by three freshmen: John Waller, Judi and
John Hansen. These are people to watch in the future.
Coach Peer Kling had high praise for Judi Hansen and
John Waller, both showed themselves very respec­
table in the MAISAD meet. Rounding out the team
were Keith Stewart, Brett Ketchum, Damon Meyer,
Duke Waddell and Chris Rollins.

�Morey Muscles Hoopmen to Victory
It was a season of ups and downs for the boys basketball
tteam. The team in spite of the fact that it finished the season
wvith a 9-7 record lacked consistency and momentum in
corder for head coach Bruce Corrill to call it a completely suc­
cessful season. "We were up for some games and could
Fplay exceptionally well while at other times we were not
rmentally prepared and showed it on the court,” said Corrill.
"The team was also plagued with injuries from time to time.
"The brunt of the scoring came from John Morey, an agjgressive post-grad, known for his triumphs in football. Gorcdon Jones took care of the ball-handling duties. Jones a
’veteran player, moved the ball up and down the court with
Igreat skill. John Lyons proved to be very capable of picking
iup the scoring duties from time to time. A deceptive
: shooter, he scored 26 points against Hebron in a winning
'cause. Joe Macomber provided bulk and hulk under the
I boards. Fred Rozzi, injured most of the season gave the
I Huskies a legitimate center. Tom MacDonald and Joe Driscoll
gave speed and size to the line-up. Dave Roderick, Charles
Gilliat, Jamie Greenlaw added bench strength. The season
was highlighted with an impressive win over Gould. John
Morey scored 30 or more points several times. The JV team
was led by center Jeff Boston and guard Bill Bird. Together,
these players averaged 30 points a game.

�Tearn of Starrs Brings Excitement to Court
Talent, depth and skill were some of the key ingredients as to why the girl's basketball team experienced one of
the finest seasons ever. First year coach Pam Marcil cited hard work and dedication as other factors that resulted in
a tremendous record of 12 wins and 2 losses. The lady hoopsters were devastating off the boards. They were led
by Kim Sullivan who was always in an excellent position to snag a key rebound. Sullivan had plenty of help under
the boards in the likes of Dina Darling and Sharon Donohue. Sandy Starr, MVP, with her nifty passes and uncanny
shooting excited fans in a way that one wonders if we will ever see anything like her again. Picking up the scoring
duties was a smooth, quick and smart point guard named Lisa Loughlin. She proved to be too quick for most if not
all defenders to guard against. Lough
in another prolific scorer, could hit
from anywhere on the floor. Sharon
Higgins and Lee Ailes were also
strong contributors. Rita Crudden
and Traci Cook improved daily. The
season was highlighted with over­
time victories and one point wins. It
was a season that saw the team win
8 out of 9 games in one stretch. It
was a team noted for smooth and
accurate passing on a consistent
basis.

�Talent Evident in Spite of Weather
Rain turned out to be the girl's
i most difficult opponent in 1983.
Just when things looked to be
turning in favor for our softball
team, coach Dick Crane found
himself notifying the team of
another cancellation. The team
never got a chance to put their
abilities to full use because of one
of the worst springs in terms of
weather ever seen. Nevertheless,
when given the chance to play it
became evident that there was
some excellent talent on this team.
When Kim Sullivan pitched it was
a sure win. Sharon Donohue
worked well with the pitchers
behind the plate. The team ended
the season 2-5, a record clearly
not indicative of their ability.

�Baseball Tearn Musters a Winning Season
It turned out to be a pleasing season for coach
Jeff Beedy and his players. Despite the weather, the
team completed the season with a 4-3 record It
was a season short but one with many highlights. A
5-4 win over Hebron and a 7-6 win over NYA
proved that this team was not one to choke. In the
very last game of the season Brett Paul struck out
14 batters. He will be returning. Joe Driscoll was
also an outstanding pitcher. Paul, Mike Pozzy, Frank
Crooker, Chris Drake, Glenn Jamison and Danny
Eichen will
provide a solid
foundation for
next year's team.

�Weather, Not
Talent Defeats
T ennis Tearns
Poor pre-season conditions gave way to a
tough start for boys and girls tennis teams.
The boy's matches were usually close much
of the season, often losing by a 3-2 margin.
Players who were outstanding were Alex
Stevenson (7-1), Henry Odgen and Joel
Turney. Turney number one singles player
made it to the MAISAD semi-finals. Henry
Odgen upset NYA's no. 1 singles player.
Although the girls didn't win a match, it is
significant that some very good talent will be
returning for another year. Temple Parker,
Amy Hillman and Amy Marr should provide a
solid foundation for next year's team. The
weather proved to be a definite factor in that
much like the girl's softball team, cancelled
matches thwarted the talent from surfacing.
A fine athlete. Temple Parker will be back for '84.

�Galeota and Comrades Crush Opponents
Coach John Rand knew before the season started that with 17 returning lettermen the season could prove to be signifi­
cant. Coach Rand at the end of the season found that he had understated his expectations. The 1983 boys' lacrosse season
turned out to be a stellar one. There were many highlights in this near perfect 10-1 season, but perhaps the high point was
Chris Galeota and the new school record he established. A scoring machine, Galeota was the greatest goal threat in the
prep ranks. He pumped in 39 goals and dished out a few assists for a total of 54 points. There were other people who could
score like All-Star game MVP Corey
Judd, he had 20 goals and 28 points
on the season. Paul Jones, an allaround athlete found himself with a
16 goal campaign. Doug Stinson
headed up the defense with 205
saves in goal. The plaque winner
Ward Turco, was the best face-off
man in the business. His percentages
were described by Rand as "unreal."
Mark Bos, Joe Macomber, Chris-Jon
Klopstock, Dave Berger, Greg
Galeota, Ronnie Gee shored up the
"D."

�JVs Mind Their
Store Too!
While the varsity seemed to be capturing
all of the attention, the JV lacrosse was just
minding their own business but in a very big
way. They finished the season 6-3. That was
good news but the best news of the season
was winning the JV tournament at Could
Academy. Again, it was one of those typical
'83 JV teams in that there were many players
that represented a variety of talent. They are
to be commended for a fine season.

�Kents Hill Hot,
Demolishes All-Star
Team on Home Turf
The quality ot play was outstanding and exciting The All-Stars were hot but
our team was hotter in their 14-7 win. It was a game in which everybody got
to play in front of one of the biggest fan turnouts ever seen at the Hill. The
Kents Hill starters were the following. Doug Stinson, goalie, had excellent
quickness and anticipation and strength, only a junior Joe Macomber, at 6'2”
220 pounds, he represents an excellent college prospect Maco has excellent
mobility for a big man Mark Bos directed the defense A spirited player, oc­
cupied the crease, one of the hardest positions on the field to play. Ron Gee,
the quickest man of defense. Paul Jones had all the moves, learned the game
fast according to Rand He knew how to read the attack and was adept at
getting open Ward Turco, an outstanding face-off man Ward was the first
on the field and last off. He proved to be a capable leader and instructor often
helping younger players at the game Wayne Randall, outstanding director on
offense Wayne was one interested in formulating plays with the coaching
staff He demonstrated a true desire in wanting the team to look good Corey
Judd, small, quick and crafty, he was the MVP of the All-Star game In spite of
his size he was one that was never intimidated Chris Galeota, for Chris "los­
ing" the word, was not part of his vocabulary. He was one of the most ex­
plosive goal scorers in the history of the school Dave Berger, perhaps one of
the most improved players of the year He could take hits and give hits well.

�Girls' Lacrosse;
Appreciation First,
Winning Last
On the surface one might assume the girls'
lacrosse team experienced a disastrous season.
True, there were some difficult moments for coach
Bowen and her players. Time, however, has an
amazing way of putting things in perspective. It was
a season that many players improved by the
minute. Some of these players like Rita Crudden,
Kari Rasmussen, Janet Boldt, Sue Bridge, Lisa
Loughlin and Tanya Morgan had never seen the
game, let alone played it, until coming to Kents Hill.
To watch them improve was remarkable. There
were very few veterans on this team but the ones
who were present represented some fine talent.
Kirsten Patey led the team on offense, Sarah Worth
was a workhorse on the field as was Jenn Barron.
Sharon Higgins could put on a show in the goal, Kris
Jensen and Jane Webb shored up both the offense
and defense when called upon.

�Robinsons, Mime, Leather and
ather Bring Delight To Campir
"Something for everybody,” is the phrase that
best describes the Kents Hill Arts Program. This
year s program was highlighted with the play
"Same Time, Next Year” starring one of our own
faculty members Mr. Peter Robinson. A Broadway
success is the story of an adulterous love affair tak­
ing place only once a year — and also a box of
reflections of 25 years of American manners and
morals mirrored in two characters. Mr. Robinson's
wife, Beth played Doris the other main character.
They are featured in the photo adjacent to this
writing. The Robinsons will not be with us next year
and that makes us sad, but perhaps with a little per­
suasion they might return for another production,
maybe just maybe, "the same time next year.”
Students and faculty also took a particular liking
once again to the "Celebration Mime Theater”
featuring Tony Montonaro, one of the world's top
mime artists. The program's final performance
came to us from four members of the Portland
Symphony Orchestra. Their repertoire ranged from
works of the medieval to popular and jazz styles.

It is so hard to sum up four years in a single page; to express what
Kents Hill has done for me, but outstanding memories should be
noted. The play productions getting gone with Bob and the Boston
Red Sox, going to Boston, Port Clyde, and New York, most impor­
tantly getting to know my friends who have changed my life in many
ways, Pam, Linda, Margaret, Bob, Tracy, Ken, Wendel, Ellen, Amy,
and John. I'll miss you.
A very special salute to Heidi Schneider and Mr. Waller, for they
have done much for me.

Thanks to Mr. and Mrs. R. for a year on stage that I will

showing me how to work with a director who
underestimates herself, Thanks to WLG for backing up my
dislike for punk music, and dirty sheets. But most of all,
thanks to Mr. and Mrs.). for keeping me straight throughout
the year. Also thanks Kents Hill for giving me a new life to

"Marry, sir, they tell (my friends) praise me and make an ass
of me; now my foes tell me plainly I am an ass; so that by my
foes, sir, I profit in knowledge of myself; and by friends I am
abused: so that conclusions to be as kisses, if your four
negatives make your two affirmatives, why then, the worse
for my friends, and the better for my foes." — William

Submit to pressure from peers and you move down to their level.
Speak up for your own beliefs and you will invite them up to your
level. If you move with the
crowd, you'll get no further
than the crowd. When forty
million people believe in a
dumb idea, it is still a dumb
idea. Simply swimming with
the tiae leaves you
nowhere, so if you believe
in something that's good,
honest and bright - stand
up for it. Maybe your peers
will get smart and drift your
way.

A/e all must strive to open our hearts, rid ourselves of
prejudice, rid ourselves from frustration and anger, feel good
about ourselves and other people. Hold our heads up high,
hold out a helping hand. Think of all the things that we have
and strive for what we want. Open our friends to understand
and love, a smile and a positive attitude and you can’t go
wrong.
Good Luck

Thank you! Mom and Bob, we've learned so much, thank you again and again,
and to my close happy family for taking me in vacation and summertime, I en­
joyed myself and love you all! Being here at Kents Hill so close to so many people
has helped me to become my own person. Each one of you has made an impres­
sion on me, enabling me to learn more about myself. I love our school and nave
considered it my home for the three years, these times I will never forget. Some­
day I hope we can meet again ... and remember. "But there never seems to be
enough time to do the things you want to do once you find them.” — Jim Croce
Maine!? Wanna get mellow, flying kites, down the hill to the lake, stars I'd never
seen, snow, the wind that never stops, Dancin in the street, intense trips we have
shared, camping with G.W.K. doing my work, the shed, getting mail, box 84,
assemblies tnat made me laugh and cry, stimulating conversations getting to
know you all. Roommates we laughed! good music, soccer, softball, road trips,
the dorm life, watching G.H., Hitching to Camden, Boston, Manis, Mandys,
Portland and w/Kim — room 441, Charlestown, and Curry, the awesome
teachers I knew Robinson and Gorrill — a wish of happiness Nelly, Meade, Mrs.
V. (Nurse Innes), Gordy, "I do respect you," "Pete, learning and laughing, Mr.
Beedy hold on to your sunshine," When you all read my books, don't freak out,
I'm ready to accomplish a sad good-bye. I love you. You my beautiful friends I
love and want to keep forever, Sharon, Snuggles and Rickie Lee Jones my most
intense, three years with you, stay in touch, Micheal Burke our friendship and
trust will remain in my heart. Edward to the woods, Paul Jones — hugs and smiles
of affection, Molly while laughing hope you find your happiness. Smitt you the
best — what happened? Will we ever meet half-way? Cindy and lanie ... Lovely
N.T.S. of a man Lynda, don't forget the time when we really talked. Macombers
lots of laughs, Temple my complex roommate, Ralph, after lunch and Sunday din­
ners were excellent! Sandy Puritans are great! Pruitt, Dina,
Lisa, may the spirit live on in '84. Good luck you seniors!
Jock - we are the closest to perfection, my mind is spin­
ning. Thank you for understanding so often. I will be lone­
ly without your company, sometime soon. We will be
together — long distance is the next best thing. Love
always. "It is better to have loved and lost, than never to
have loved at all.”

Remember what was said, and done, and felt about each
other.

"Yes, it is finally time to leave
Take it calmly and serene
It is the famous final scene
It is been coming on so long
You were just the last to know
It's been a long time since you've smiled
Seems like oh so long ago
Now the stage has been set
And the nights are growling cold
Soon the winter will be here
And there's no one warm to hold
Now the lines have all been read
And you knew them all by heart
Now you move toward the door
Here it comes the hardest point
Try the handle at the road."

Dear Mrs, liaisons
Checking our recorded history
we find that the Kents Hill Female College
was chartered in I860 and the firsi^aegree
was awarded in 1862 to Liszle A. .'Ulen,

In our research, the only college
that we have found that antedated Kents Hill
is Oberlin College in Oberlin, Ohio, started
in 1833 with their first decree being -.warded
in 1841.
Mount Holyoke was ectublishod as a
Seminary in 1337 but was not chartered as a
college until 1393»

Other colleges we have checked were:
Bites, chartered in 1864; Swarthmore, 1864;
Wellesley, 1875; Vassar, 1865; Smith, 1875,
and Bryn Mawr, 1885*

Sincerely,
Edith S. Thanarus
Alurmi Secretary

Mrs. Ralph Nelson

FORGOTTEN MONUMENT ON MOUNT GILE — This 1
monument to the tragic suicide death of a 22-ycar-old girl
lies almost hidden on the west side of Mount Gile overlook­
ing Lake Auburn. After a hundred year's, the fence is rusted 1
with age and the marker with its bitter epitaph has been
toppled by weather or needless visitors, but the granite
still clearly shows a father’s indictment against “the pre­
judice and caprice of man.’ The monument is located about
50 feet to the left of the trail up the mountain from the end
of the Oak Hill Road.
