Sadly, they wave farewell to oihcers along the shore. It was their untiring instrucf tion that built the sturdy hulls for this voyage. Former shipmates exchange cries of encourage' ment as each drifts out into a separate channel. What adventures will be recorded in their logs? What new stars will pilot their course?

60 fha Seniors Three years ago you began your voyage through the high school seas at Kensington. You had received one year of training in the art of navigation at one of the other high schools in this or some other city. You had spent a year in learning to plot your course through the troublesome waters of secondary educa- tion and, after faithfully following that course, have now arrived safely in port. Now as you disembark from your sheltered cabins to begin your new jour- ney on the stormy seas of life, your burdens are lessened because of the training you have received. All of the hazards that you must encounter can surely be overcome. Courageous and determined pilots steer their ships cautiously and carefully through storm and fog into the sunlight and color on the other side of the troubled waters. Determination, self-assurance, loyalty, and integrity are the main points on your compass. To set your course on these unchanging points assures your arrival at your destination--success in life. Careful planning, conscientious application of effort, sincere regard for your fellow man, and the adaptation of sound moral principles to your daily activities become the beacons of travel for every Ken- sington graduate. Sincerely yours, g
