Club (2) ; Basketball (2); Pen and Ink Club (3) ; Monogram Club (2); Marshal (3); Beta Club (4); Sec. of Class (4); Dra¬ matics Club (4). Mix one part of beauty with two parts of intelligence, add a dash of artistic ability, a big pinch of mischievousness, and combine all with some essence of common sense and we have Janie. We guarantee our recipe to be one of the best. A ship comes sailing into port, Bells ringing and sailors carefree; Their voyage is done, with the set of the sun; They have fought and they’ve conquered the sea. The ship is the good class of ’35; The sailors none other than we; The voyage-—the course of our high school years; We have won and the port we now see. Many times we’ve encountered hardships That have taxed our brain and brawn, But with the last of the gale we tightened our sail As our cry was ever “Sail On”. Sometimes the day was all sunshine; Our spirits and hopes rose high As we basked in sweet contentment, Our eyes on the blue of the sky. Now we embark on the voyage of life, A part of the journey past; Some will sail on with the courage they have While others will shrink from the blast. The weakest will aimlessly drift here and there, Torn and tossed bv the moving tide, While the strong will steer a course that’s clear With the Pilot o’er all as their guide. —Fred Peacock 20 19 3 5
