THE DRAXVBRIDGE Nineleen-Twenty ed and purposeful American lVomen. As I passed on and Hnally came to a completed ship ready to brave fierce storms and squalls, I thought of what an infinite part each section had played in the build- ing of it. How much like our Castle this ship seemed. A ship cannot be built without some one to do the planning for it, a person who will direct the building with untiring zeal and care. The completed ships which have gone out from this shipyard of Miss lVlason's bespeak the careful guidance that they have had not only from Nliss lVIason, the General lVIan- ager, but from the faculty which represent the fore- men who had overseen the building of his or her par- ticular part. To begin the construction there must first be the unmodelled material, and here in our shipyard this would be our own dear primary, which after com- pleting the five necessary processes launches forth. The next is the assembling room where the seg- ments are Hformedn and the work begins. :lNfIany parts are dismayed to find that they require a little more polishing before they can actually be called one of the four main sections. Pausing at a dry dock where the keel of a new ship was being laid, I stood for sometime watching the men working on it. Following up my idea, I compared the laying of the keel of the vessel to our class, the Freshmen. VVe are aiming for a perfect foundation because a Haw at this stage means that the entire ship will be unbalanced. VVe are fortu- nate in having as the foreman of our class, lVIiss Giessler. Next comes the frame work corresponding to our rival class the Sophomores, which also has to be sub- stantially strong. Sophomores, you came out higher in the test in hockey between our classes which prov- ed your strength, even though you did lose to the Juniors, your work was well done. After the keel is laid and the frame work finished, the machinery is installed. This must be put in just as accurately as any other part. Your mettle was tested, Juniors, and proved to be of the best and strongest. Following this the ship is ready for inspection and all the finishing touches are added. Everything is made perfect in preparation for the launching, Com- mencement Day, when the ship goes forth to take part in helping and uplifting mankind. This part of the work represents our Senior Class. lVIiss lVIason has done her part toward the call for educated and purposeful American Women when she has launched a ship. There has never been a vessel that has left Miss lVIason's shipyard that has not carried out a great purpose and served people in all lands and in every way. I now close my speech expressing our hope that this famous shipyard may continue its fine work for many years to come under the splendid guidance of Miss lVIason.
