JUNE? 935 Four years ago, one antnmn day, Timid and shy and green, We chartered a ship from the E. H. S. And christened her J'nne, 'I5.'H With plentiful ballast of sage advice We trimmed our eager sails, And loosed onr cables, and sped away In the teeth of the fresh'ning gales. Onr jolly crew were stannch and trne And gnided by their hopes, They worked the sails right merrily When once they knew the ropes. We fonnd ns soon in griefzfons storms, A rain of questions ponred, And front the wet and slippery decks A few fell overboard. And when the rocks and reefs nprose, Some shnddered with remorse And trembling to the pilot ran, And begged to change their conrse. Yet, loss or gain, snnshinfe or rain, We've been good comrades, all. And hand in hand, a loyal band, We'7Je weathered many a sqnall. We know in all our fonr years crnise, Long days and toilsorne nights. We 11e scarcely reached the deeper blne Beyond the harbor lights, When- we shall sail mid-ocean deep. Where storms beat fierce and keen, We hope to show, how e'er it blow The worth of Inner, 'I5.
