DCZIC DD CZI THE SPOTLIGHT VA LKDICTO RIAN’S A I) I) 11 E S S l.aiiirs, Hi iilh im ii, it ml V Ihnrsrhnolninh'S: In tin year of onr Lord iniHmi hundred «mil tvventy-sevcn, a ship sailed 1 o vii flu river. The ship was mniincii by a nvw, young, hopeful, ami eager; a nrw that looked forward to four years of sailing, strife and jov, with an i ii t h i is ia s hi that knew no hounds. Fnrli memhci of tint crew had an innate desire for Mieerss in the voyage, for success in the voyage meant success later. Over the ship floated its colors, red and white, I lie colors that symbolized not only the spirit of the little ship, hut also in a larger sense, the nation and the town from w hence it came. On sunny days and on cloudy days, those colors, red and white, floated over the gallant little vessel, helping it on to final victory. Friends of the ship, parents and teachers of the crew, trod along on the river hanks, helping to push the little ship along, steering it on a course always straight and true. Still, those parents, friends and teachers could not forever guide that ship, for sometimes the river widened, and it was expedient that the ship help itself. Sometimes sail I liars arose in the river, and the ship had to seek deeper water. I hiring the voyage the ship put in at many ports: at Point Sorrow, at Fort Joy, at t'ape tJrief. at Happiness Harbor. The ship eon Id never stop long at any one port lint kept faithfully on until it's voyage was completed, for, as their banner said, that little crew was -On Lite's Highway, and tin ship could not stop at joy or sorrow, hut must pass r.ieli harbor as it came by. This little ship tried always to go on a straight cniir o—a true course for other crews and ships were behind. Now that the ship, which started out in 1 wenty'-seven, is about to complete its voyage, a milestone has been passed b.v each of the other ships. If this first ship made mistakes, then may these other ships profit by the mistakes. If the first ship did right, then surely it will lie easy for the others to follow in the ronrse. Now the voyage of tin little ship is almost ended. Tomorrow’ each mein her of the crew will be ready to sail his own boat'. Not on a river serene and calm, but on rin ocean with high waves and storms. Parents, friends and teachers call no longer, hv their efforts, guide the little ship. At first each mem her of the crew nuiy flounder and cry for help, lint gradmillv he w ill rise above tlu waves. Knowledge and wisdom will come, and with that knowledge and w isdom, an understanding of life. Now tlu ship has finished its first real voyage. It is ready to begin another —fi longer voyage, not down a river with sheltered banks, but a voyage that will take the ship through storms, through stress, through jov ami happiness into tlu ocean of life. The ship is ready; let it sail! Bkttv Blakk, TIL dc=o DC PaKe 7
