Class History Sailing, sailing, over the bounding main. Yes, and it vvas a perfect day for sailing on that day in the first of September of 1923 when a crew ol' thirty-nine strong: twenty girls and nineteen boys, boarded th:- ship Education . Of course, you old salt, it was the class of HSS . On our first voyage, Miss Anita George served as u very efficient captain and things went as well as could be expected for our first trip on the sea of Life . On our second voyage we were under the cnptainship of Miss Winaman, but sailing was a little different as the novelty had worn off. Our third voyage was guided by Miss Sara Wilson and our fourth by Mrs. Crawford Baily, who vvon thc- hearts ol' the Class. The fifth was piloted by Miss Hoyt, who amused us and won our admiration through her talent in dramaties and declamationg and tho sixth by Miss Calloway. Then on the seventh voyage, the rules and regulations vvere changed and OUP l'OlIi.iHG NVDS not SO l'l'lOl'lOI,Ol'lO1lS DS bSfOI C. Our old ship had becorne dilapidated with the wean- and tear ol' the sea and with the storms el' Lifc . It was too small for the crew which had grovvn so in numbersg so on our eighth voyage we boarded a nevv and larger ship with modern equipment. Other ships consolidated and their crews boarded our ship. Six more sailors ,joined us at this stop. They had caught up with us by miss- ing one of the ports. They were listed on the ship's record thus: Dorothy Jones, Bettie Baer, Joscphync- Waples, .lack Townsend, Al- bert Montague, and Julius Cooper. Our crew had grown frorn thirty-nine to seventy-three strong. At this point of the voyage, there were only sixteen fleft of the c-riginal crew. Three gave up the shipg one died, nine were left behind and len had boarded other ships but were striving for the same port, Graduation . Thus we leave the river of Grammar School and the sea of Junior High School and are now upon the treacherous ocean of Senior High School. Bon Voyage to the class of SS , On our ninth voyage, looking 1-head, it seemed an endless trip to Graduation , but the years have passed unbelieveably fast. Now, vvilh our port in sight, we are reluctantly preparing to leave the old ship of Education after twelve long years on that turbulent Sea ol' life . From this port we vvill now board the ship of Experience . Here's luck to all of my shipmates and may they have a good wind and soon dock in the port of Suceess . WE ARE ALL SAILORS ON THE SEA OF' I.IFE g SO LET US ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT- A SAILOR'S HEART IS EVER TO THE SEA AND EVER ONVVARD. Charles Purnell pagr fnrlg
