The two new passengers who were added on our first flight wereg Marjory Alberts and Lila Te Paskc, making our number thirteen, Miss Richardson still our guide. All Thirteen of us helped our gov't this flight by buying saving stamps each week, Poland Anderson was retained on this flight, thus lowering our passengers to l?. Flight number two was guided by Kiss Den Hartog. Peter John Zylstra, Denny Klien, and Howard Hsdden were added. We began to have to study a little on this flight because we were introduced to the 3r's. ln the fall of 'LB we started our 3rd flight still guided by Miss Den Hartog. Our new passengers included Betty Jean Buus, and Tracy Elgersma. MOst of us had to have vaccinations of some sort or another during this flight. Toward the end of this flight BCtty Jean Buus, Kenny Klien, and Peter John Zylstra left us, making our number 13, Greeted by a new teacher Mrs, Williams, we began our nth flight climbing higher and higher each time. One of our passenger, Marlo Vrnlcn Hull was retained at the end of the third flight, leaving our number of passengers at 12. During this flight we constructed miniture villiages in sand boxes, ln l9hS we began our fifth flight with Miss Nagel as our uide. Four new passengers were added to our list makingishe number fi, the new passengers wereg Evelyn Rozeboom, Richard Craig, Robert and Duane Hanks: Activities for this flight included fancy work for the girls and handicraft for the boys. Near the end of this flight Robert and Duane Hanks, Tracy Elgersma, and Howard Hadden left us for other ships. This left the number of passengers at l2 again. During our sixth flight, guided by Miss Mc Nutt, Evelyn Bottin was taken ill with rhumatic fever and was unable to join us again. This year we stopped long enough to give an operetta, HThe Farmer In The Delln. We also joined a bird club, called the HAudubon Bird Club Society.N No changes were made on our seventh flight in the number of passengers, however one change was made, This change took place during Christmas vacation when our teacher Miss McNutt changed her name to Mrs. Vollink. During this flight we also drew pictures which Mrs. Vollink sent to the state fair, Some of our pictures won prizes, On our eighth flight we were guided by Mrs, Wolfe. By the time of Eighth Grade Graduation we had lost Richard Craig as one of our passengers and gained Ellen Gill who joined us from South Dakota, As we started our Qth and first year of the high school flight our passengers included: Marjory Alberts Jens Sorenson Jean Bonderman Gloria Stofferan Ellen Gill Lila Te Paske Terry Harkins Robert Tiemens Larry Krauss Marvin Vanden Hull Evelyn Rozeboom Karen Ver Hoef with Mr. Kuhns as our sponsor we gave a theater party. Ellen Gill soon moved away. Planning for the Freshman Initiation was the big event on our lOth flight. We also had the thrill of ordering our class rings during this flight. Starting our eleventh flight we realized we were nearing the ond of our trip. Four exciting events took place during this flight. The first event, we recieved our class rings. Naturally we all thought they were prettier than they had been any of the other years. Second we presented our class playg NCrazy But Cuton, under the direction of Mrs. Jensen. Soon after this Terry Harkins moved to South Dakota. On April 8th we attended Career Day at Sheldon. Last of all we sponsored our Junior-Senior Banquet, the theme being Moonlight and Hoses. The banquet was served by the Baker Ladies Aid and Mrs. McCri1l was our viry able sponsor under all this, At last we boarded the ship again for the last time, undertzhe guidence of Mrs. Campbell and Mrs. Brouwer, Our passengers were the same except that Ronald Callienius joined us from the Hospers ship. and Jens Sorenson left us after the second semester. This year was filled with days of enjoyment. The day we had our pictures taken, the Christmas party, Senior play HKay Beats The Bandn, Skip Day at Storm Lake, and now the Junior-Senior Banquet. Last but not least Bacelaureate and Commencement. we have nearly completed l3 years of school and will soon be setting our on flights of our own. We will all try to make our new flights the best we have ever had using the knowledge we have gained on our last l3 flight. Of course we want to thank every one who had a part in giving their timp'for our guidence for us and we hope the Seniors to come can Say they had as much of an enjoyable time as we did through our flights. QUIPS AND QUOTES The most efficient labor-saving device is still money. The trouble with some of today's smart children is that they don't smart in the right places. It isn't what girls know that bothers parents. It's how they found it out. Thrift is a wonderful virtue--especially in ancestors. Walking isn't a lost art--one must, by some means, get to the garage. I always like to hear a man talk about himself because then I never hear anything but good. ---- Will Rogers Women have recently been placed at a disadvantageg man can new travel faster than sound. The most disillusioned girls are those who married because they were tired of working. The palest ink is better than the most retentive memory No matter how much women race to buy Christmas presents for men, the race always ends in a tie. I f f I x FM KAREN VER HOB?

So with suitcases in hand, the boys Ccontinuedj arrive at Uncle Bob's, set for a big week end. Thatfs puttin' it mildly indeed because Hercules Knows his uncle has taken a new job, but what he doesn't know until it's too late is that his uncle is Q 5 mortician. That's right, an undertaker. Needless to say, the boys are terrified.

We have learned many new things this year. In Arithmetic We learned to carry in addition and to borrow in subtraction, also how to multiply and divide by two and by three. Our Social Studies has been interesting. We'visited Rusty Hlake in his home town of Westport and learned a great deal about :ne different activities in the town.

Our music class has been with the second grade. We learned many new songs and marching drills. We sang between acts of the operetta and also in the Christmas program. Our Animal Booklets which we made during our units on animals in science were on display for exhibit. We also covered units on plants, land and water, and simple machines. How to write letters was one things we learned for English. We wrote kmtere to Jack Youngers who moved to Sutherland in December. We were very sorry to have Jack leave. ' We had some interesting contests in Spelling. Each month we made individual spelling charts which we marked with stars or some appropriate seal. We also had some spelldowns. We have worked hard all year and hope to be fourth graders next September. FOURTH NEWS Our year began with 16 enrolled, eight girls and eight boys. The first of March Judy McCarty moved and later Kenneth Schilling came to our room. One of our first projects was an Eskimo village, during which time we studied the Eskimo and his environment.. Later we studied China and wrote personal diaries of the life in China. We entertained our mothers and everyone enjoyed having a part in it.

' The fifth grade had their parts in the operetta "Tom Sawyer" which was presented by the four upper grades. Lorraine Idso played the part of Becky. There were many projects for us to work on. The one we worked on all year was keeping our room decorated and looking as nice as possible. A history pro ect which we really enjoyed was that of ugaking Indian tepees and setting up and Indian village. We also made houses from cornstocks to represent the log cabins pioneers 'nade. Our biggest geography project of the year was making maps of all the countries we studied this year. Recording our voices for English and Reading classes was a lot of fun and we learned a lot from it. Other things we did was to have an arithmetic progress chart, health charts and spelling contests. U Four members of our class took baton lessons and five took band lessons. Playing in Junior Band was really fun. Our room won the PTA banner and one dollar award once this year.

During the course of the year, we held some interesting parties such as skating, game, etc. It is hard to choose the best party because, we had so much fun at all of them. Mr. Good was our class sponsor this year. SEVENTH NEWS The school year of 52 and 55 was begun with l4 members in the seventh grade. This is an unusual grade, because in it we have l5 energetic boys and one lonely girl, who has to seek comnanionship someplace else. Would you like to be the girl? I think she deserves a great hand for endurance. ' ' Warner Bondcrman was elected president. Wendell Fykstra, vice president, Douglas Morfitt, Larry Bruggom, and David DeKok were re-elected respectively as Secretary-Treasurer and class reporter. Another boy which should receive extra recognition is David DeKok. Through the entire year he very ably wrote the class activities every week. Thanks David from the entire class.

We read the novel, HThe Tale of Two Citiesn by Charles Dickens and Shakespeares HJulius Caosar.H Mrs Camp- bell always managed to get a few oral and written compositions in dur assignnents. Worl History was studying nrohlems of the whole world from the earliest record of man up to the end of the second World War. Lverv Friday we would trv to hring in current news rcnorts. The first semester we had Wusiness Train- ing fron which we learned a lot that we will need to know in the husincss world. The second semester we had dusiness Arithnotic, which is more or less a course in working with numhers.- We did this hv finding ares, volume, cost and weirht of articles.

Most of the members of our class participated in most of the aetivities.' The biggest thrill of the vear was when we ordered our class rings, even though we wont get then until next fall. In April we attended HCareer Davu at Paullina where evervbodv went to four classes about different occupations in which they were interested. We are now looking forward to being Juniors next vear. Reportcr--- Glenda Blok. Junior News This year has proven to be a busy one for the Juniors. We re- cieved our class rings soon after school began. HFinders Creepersu was the nano of our class play. We found we had were talent than we thought especially when one of our leading actors decided to take a vacation a couple of nights be- fore the play. Of course we attended most of the parties. Our own turned out to be rather ruff judging from the wav Evelyn looked the next day. Some of us took part in the various music contests. Margene found out that she couldn't wear the left shoe on both feet. The banquet was a western theme with western nusicg guitarsg cowboy boots and even hails of straw fitting into the setting. 0f course all of the above was just fun and our studies oc- cupied most of our time. We hope we learned all that we will need to know. Senior News When school started this fall there werefll new seniors who were rather scared or nervous. hut whv should we be we were the big-shotsnowll We soon get over that feeling when we began to get burried in studies. About the first important thing we did was to have our Senior Class pictures taken. On October sixteenth we left the school house about 7:00 A.H. which was pretty early for some of us. Since Mr. Brower was unable to go with us, Ur. Uatzdorff took his place. We had our pictures taken which took until about 11:00. Next we visited the fire station and the police debt. None of us liked the padded cell very well. We also visited the court room where Hr. Matzdorff was accused of murderi Due to the kindness of Judge Paradise he was found Hnot guilty.N Jean Bonderman was the lucky person that day, she won a tripple banana split, and two tickets to the nTomban By the way Jean did you ever use them? The next big step we took was to order our graduation announce- ments. By doing that we felt we could really see the end coming closer. How disappointing. 55 .. :I ' ers Gcr 2 .Jer talkinc 'csv " es ' , ." i - 1'n n ,T us k 1 decided if M. e U. to college -nd iere ,, o eft some of us undecided. 4 Our Senior Class Play was, HKay Beats The Bandu, which was given April 29th. .Because of Mr, Good's fine job of dirccting every thing went eff with a bangi Next came that day of days, NSkip Dayu which we lucky Ceniors spent in Storm Lake, Iowa. The morning was filled with such unforgettable experiences as touring the packing plant, the National Guard Armory, and the Cobblestone Inn. Soon after this we went to the Buena Vista college where we got a glimpse of the new Girl's Dorm. and had a very interesting time studying animal embryos, and one of the college professors gave us a short talk. The Physics lab. held many wonders for the Physics students, for we get a chance to see static electricity in action, and to view marvels of an electric eye, Ask Karen how it feels to have static electricity running up your arm. At this time we left our guide and went to lunch. We spent the afternoon doing various things of our choice, as shopping, going to a movie, dancing, roller skating, or anything else we wanted to do. That evening several of us went dancing to the Jimmy Palmer orchestra at the Cobblestone Inn, we are now looking forward to the lives, HCommencementH at which time we We can only hope that next yearfs all important date in our receive our diplomas.
