Indeed this looked to be a long and rough voyage, but we were determined to make it a success. We were not alone on this voyage as there were three upper classes, who had started out before us, they looked back at us with much contempt, 'because we were new on this Great Ocean. Th-e Captain or leader of this group was the faithful Miss Marion Ash. With her wonderful leadership she started us out on this Great Voyage. On and on we sailed. Once in a while we would meet with a stormy some took it carlmly while others begged to turn back, and some who became discouraged did turn back on passing ships. But with the encouragement of our loyal leaders a large number of the The first stop for a period of four The following Ocean of Learning. found with tus again There was one Nichols.

All again we anchored, this time at the Island of Hope. Here all enjoyed themselves. THIRD LEAGUE For the third time we returned to the Voyage and found that we still retained our splendid Captain, Mrs. Pontius. This part of the voyage was indeed very eventful. The crew decided to put on a play, Billy's Tombstonesf' which was given with great success. We also gave a large banquet to the Seniors before making the next stop at The Island of Determination. FOURTH LEAGUE All aboard! Back again! By this time we were beginning to notice the -dis- tance we had traveled. . We had to choose a new captain. Mrs. Dillow was unanimously elected by the class. Mrs. Dillow gladly took the great responsibility, and with her untiring efforts guided us once more out on our voyage. But alas! We received a message one evening which brought sadness to the entire ship. Death had taken that 'Fair Lady, Mrs. Marion Ash Pontius, to the Land of Rest. Never can we forget her. .She had crept into the hearts of all who knew her. Her smiling face and cheerful words shall always remain with us. The crew gave another play The Goose Hangs High. The success of which was equal to the preceding attempt. Before anchoring for the last time, we were given a banquet by the Juniors which was enjoyed by all.
