(Uir 8 pnun Homage N the — day of September, 1918, a peaceful, calm day, the good ship Dearborn High School hoisted her sails and prepared to venture out into the unknown Sea of Wisdom, in quest of the Fountain of Perfect Under- standing. This was a red letter day, in the history of the good ship, for she was to explore untried waters. She was scheduled to leave at nine o’clock but long before that time all the passengers had assembled, and stood, eagerly talking, and waiting for the real voyage to begin. We were to sail four seas, and were now on the smallest and first, being called the Freshman Sea. It was during our third voyage that all were seized by a strange and ap- parently fatal disease. The ship doc- tor was called in to diagnose the case, and in the girls he called it basket ball, in the boys, football. He said it was not fatal, but must be left to run its course. We all recovered finally, but the doctor told us that this disease, once contracted, occurred annually. It was on this same voyage than our boys so distinguished themselves at Plymouth Harbor, helping win for dear old D. H. S. an immortal laurel in the athletic line. Fey literally “ran away” with many an honor. Then began our fourth year, which is by far the best. We have braved the strongest gale that blows. Katherine Cosbey has even managed to get up in time for first hour class nearly every day. This was a re- markable feat, for during our Junior voyage we had come to think of her as “the late Miss Cosbey.” Before we had traveled far on this, our last sea, we launched our small boats and sailed to Jorgensen Island, where we spent a very pleasant evening. . Then, in May, after three weeks’ hard endeavor, we all reached “The End of the Rainbow.” We would fain dwell over the his- tory of our voyage, and tell of the many new passengers and of the departures, but lack of time prevents. Bernice Phipps has adopted for her slogan, “May the patron saints of embrales catch me if I ever lose my mind over a mere man! Mick has proved that he is not false, just fickle. Adams has shown the true value of argument. Kandt has striven valiantly to prove that he could. Miss Fisher has demonstrated the value of “early to bed, early to rise” (?) Pfeiffer will make a fine husband, having shown his ability as a cook and at butlering. We would suggest that he go by the nameof Hawkins. We have no cause to worry about the welfare of Minnie Sprague, for we know she will follow the dictates of her own conscience.” We feel sure that Marian Bland, our aquatic star, will swim her way to fame. All the girls envy Salisbury his beautiful complexion. Mosti of the Senior girls have taken a preliminary course in household arts, under the careful guidance of Mrs. English, the Campfire guardian; but we think this will be of especial benefit to Miss Henry. Scotty this last year has shown a remarkable liking for Birds. Virginia Jorgenson demon- strated at the basket ball games that she is a Modern American Woman, and believes in standing up for her own rights. Loretta. Burdeno—chocolates— magazines—sleep. Helen has proved that she’s not only Fair but the Best and carries off the class honors. The class as a whole suggests that Bob Lapham stay in nights Contrary to everyone’s ideas, Eleanor Hoeflcr has proved herself a real coquette and has vamped her way to “The End of the Rainbow.” On our return trip we arc going to drop Smith off at Springwells, so he can save on car fare. Now our voyage is nearly ended, and we look back half regretfully over the Seas of our High School Life.— but we look forward to the voyage of Real Life with joyous hope, for it is now at its triumphant Commence- ment !
