H. S. With fear and trembling and also a certain amount of rejoicing, they entered upon this long four-years voyage on the Seas of Learning. When they first boarded this great steamer, they were extremely excited and bewildered. Everything was in a state of confusion. This condition, however, was quickly righted by the officers and crew. The new passengers were directed to their respective cabins. They were scattered about, some on the first, some on the sec- ond, and some, even, on the third deck. All seemed to become acquainted easily and in a very short time good old S.H.S. was again back in her stately order and accustomed routine. These new passengers, being unknown to the crew, were always in readiness to show their passports at a moment's notice to prove th.ir rightful presence. Being unaccustomed to their strange surround- ings, they often became quite confused and lost their way about, much to the enjoyment of other passengers who had already made part of this wonderful trip. Many times these landlubbers would seem unable to find the correct cabin in which they belonged and the stumbling over cabin doorstops was greater than ever heard of before. The principal officer, a stern, forceful looking person, was known as Captain E. W. Tiffany. This august person, al- though patient and considerate, would have no foolishness nor misbehavior on his ship. He had a crew of fifty to assist him in this work. After becoming accustomed to the round of work and pleasure aboard ship and suc- cessfully recovering from Latin and Alge- bra sea sickness, some having one, and some the other, all things went smoothly and it was not long before one year of the voyage had passed swiftly and safely for almost all. About this time the great ship entered the port known as South Morrs. Here the passports of all were signed when they disembarked for a few days vacation. After this all too short sojourn, they again set sail. A little more sure of themselves and a little better liked, they were allowed to mingle with the more experienced voy- gers. They accompanied them to the great mass meetings called by Captain Tiffany in the salon, and also met with them at the lunch hour in the ship's dining room. At these meetings held in the salon, they were made to listen to speeches and lectures given both by their Captain and other important personages who came aboard at some of the small ports. Doctor Evans, one of these, was the favorite. So well liked was he that the passengers made him a present that he might remember them always. Through these mass meetings it became evident to everyone that the Captain's one motto for all aboard was, Work. It was well that they got used to this maxim at P ' ,xii
