Now it is time to give a twenty-one gun salute to officers of the Good Ship East, who have guided us through the difficult waters of education. Skilled pilots all, they have taught us how to chart our own courses both on the high seas and in our home ports. They have taught us that one must be a good sailor and step lively or walk the plank. During the past twenty-five years of smooth sailing at East, We have had our two hundred teachers, thirty-seven of whom have been at the helm for the entire voyage. On Ianuary 16, a tea was held in the chart room Clibrary, to youj for all who have served as ofiicers of our ship. Over their teacups they dis- cussed the ports they have visited since last they sailedj-with us. On the next pagezyou can see Superifiiendent Benjamin Willis talking with our principal, Mr. Kless, on that occasion. Heave to, my lads and lasses, and give a rip- roaring salute to the skippersqfglour teachers. r 'Q 0 CFFICERS 10
