ENDING OUR RIVER IOURNETSM As we round the last curve in the river, a feeling of apprehen- sion comes upon us. We look forward, and our gaze meets the un- fathomable ocean With its rougher waves, broader views, and its Wide expanse offering divers routes. This inspiring sight fills us with awe, and we turn so that we may once more enjoy that which we have traversed. Once opened, our memory chest Hoods us with thoughts of the experiences of the past four years. We resense the thrill of being freshmen when life was full of glee and irresponsibility. We recall how we were carried from the calm of the freshman year into the rougher waters of our sophomore and junior years. There were plays to practice, paper stories to write, lessons to prepare, declamations to learn, places to go which made it a more difiicult task to stay in the boat. But, with our teachers at the helm and underclassmen at the stern sharing our burden, we were borne into the wide, deep channel of our senior year. And, as each day passed, We came to realize how much grati- tude and appreciation we owe these instructors and fellow students. We are recalled from our dream by the movement of our ship, and We have only time enough to wave a hand of farewell in answer to the group that smiles and waves to us as we fade from their sight toward our unknown destination. .rlkxixi X' t ix QR, xx H.VS. x 5
