Our school days then, are just one phase of that voyage-a voyage of twelve long years. As we raise the flag of 1952 on our 'tGood Ship Jefferson, we see mirrored the days we spent together on this voyage. We view with new perspective our fellow passengers, and the cap- tain and the crew who gave us of their gift of knowledge-the teachers who helped guide our ship safely into the Port of Graduation.

We charted our course through many waters, Each filled his own little cup, or dipper, or pitcher, or barrel. Our ship took anchor at many ports along the way. Some took part in the port's activities, while others stood by and watched. Some left our ship to join other ships, while new passengers came aboard at every port. We passed other ships during this long voyagesships that were bound for the same anchorage. They tried our mettle in friendly battles and sometimes found us wanting. But just as the fiercely blowing wind purifies the air, so these encounters proved to be but stepping stones to reach our goal. Now our compass points to broader horizons-to God's great open sea. We'll board other ships and 'Sail on, sail on .... PAGE THREE ,Q
