After a few days at sea in a gentle morning: breeze they chose their officers. Miss Nelson by popular acclaim was already at the wheel. The members honored were: Clarence Gilbert, captain: Ivar Anderson, first mate; Dona Miller, keeper of the log; Helen Florcn. purser. A few months had passed. In the distance loomed storm clouds that threatened to swoop down upon them and devour them like a great sea monster. Every member worked frantically to insure their safety. The storm finally broke but the crew had done its work well and the ship was saved. As they had not failed they were able to invite the crew from the ship, Class of ’28 to a great feast. This was the only record of any serious danger on this trip. By the time port was sighted the rays of the warm June sun had so saturated their lxxlies with a want for rest that the crew was glad' to cross the gangplank and take their well earned rest. Again after three months had passed the crew gathered for its final voyage. Due to their previous experience the group was now familiar with the ways of the sea. The last journey was looked forward to with happiness and confidence that can only come with years of sailing. After three years of hard work they were at last reaching a high degree of seamanship. It was easy to see that they were the oldest crew on the sea. Jt being the usual custom to elect the officers from the crew, Clarence Gilbert was chosen captain: Ivar Anderson, first mate: Dona Miller, keeper of the log; Justine Xeufeld, purser. On their last and final voyage it was necessary to pick an old and experienced pilot. After searching the records carefully it was found that Mr. J I. C. Wingblade had piloted many vessels and not once had he failed to bring them in safely to port. 1 le consented to take the wheel of the ship. When the old rose and silver banner of the ship was hoisted, the anchor hauled, the ship pulled out of harbor full steam ahead. After cruising several months the crew decided to stage a drama on the high seas. This proved to be very interesting as on the appointed night many ships had dropped anchor to watch this spectacle. As the ships were reaching port on their final voyage it had always been the unique custom for the next oldest and ablest crew to show their respect to the retiring crew. When this event was held all worries and cares were cast over board and they had a great feast. Finally the good ship under the guiding hand of the capable pilot steamed into port and dropped anchor for the last time. The crew gathered on deck arrayed in their latest uniforms. Amid the shouting and acclaim of the assembled multitude, Grand Admirable I lagstrom crossed the gangplank. Addressing the assembled crowd lie told them of the accomplishments and purposes of the faithful crew. With great solemnity and respect he bestowed on each sailor the highest and noblest honor that could be given to a person who had successfully sailed the sea of Bethel.
