Sophomore Class A Trip to Hades Our interest in the myths grew and grew as we grew' oilier. When we were Sophomores we became so incensed witn the lives of our heroes and heroines that we decided in a very important class meeting to begin our vacation early and take a trip to Greece. On Easter Morning. 1918, wre arose bright and early and started on our trip of adventure. Our seventeen airplanes, each carrying two. left Florence about seven in the morning. We reached Mt. Olympus in the early twilight of the fourth day. Zeus wras standing at the gate of his palace to welcome us. In the fading evening he showed us thru his beautiful home. At a late hour wre were served with a delightful dinner. At dinner Zeus told us that he would have his brother Pluto show us his Under-world home the next day. We started early the next morning. When we came to the rived Styx we gave our coins, that Juno had given us. to Chaton, w'ho rowed us across the river. The only trouble we had getting into the Under-world wras getting past the three-headed dog Cerberus. But we found a remedy. The girls massaged their faces with the beauty ointment that Venus had given them, and the boys sucked the wisdom sticks that Minerva had given them; and as a result we facinated Cerberus so that we were allowed to pass. After we had proceeded a short distance we came to a large room brilliantly lighted with electric lights. There we found Proserpina, the w ife of Pluto. After we assured her we had not come to stay, she greeted us cordially. From the beautiful room we came to a small dark, musty room lighted by a single candle. In one corner around a small table sat three old women knitting. They didn’t pay any attention at all to us. “Those are the three Fates, who knit the lives of men.” Pluto told us. Then we came to a beautiful garden where we heard the most beautiful music that w'e had ever heard. Soon from the shelter of the trees came a handsome youth and a lovely maiden. The youth played upon a lyre. Pluto told us that it wras Orpheus and Eurydice. Farther down the stream we saw the winged Cupid and the most beautiful Psyche. We came to a small hill and as we ascended we rested a few minutes under the laurel tree into w'hich Daphne had changed herself to escape Apollo. We saw Hero and Leander sitting lovingly on a large rock on the side of the hill. In a dark cave we saw the revengeful Media pacing up and down and tearing her hair. On top of the hill wfe saw Bellerophone and his beautiful winged horse. Pegasus. We descended the other side of the hill, seeing here and there some one we had read about. Toward the close of the day we returned through the dark cave to Zeus’ home. Next morning after we had thanked Zeus and Pluto in every way we could we started on our return trip. We arrived in dear old Florence in time to enjoy the picnic and to see the Seniors graduate.
