V L L V i l MR. MOORFPS MESSAGE SHIPS! Out of the stream of trite and matter-of-fact words that constitute the ordinary How of our speech there Flashes from time to time a word of magic power. Such a one is ushipsnl Daring as is the aeronaut of today, he is not characterized by the sheer audacity that marked the early sailor. With no modern science to aid him, no electrical appliances, no compass, no weather forecasts, no accurate knowledge of the hounds of the earth, with only fickle winds as motive power,-the mariner of old fared forth, he knew not where. Ships bore Ulysses, Aeneas, and their companions on journeys fraught with peril and romance. Ships carried the civilization of Greece and Rome to the four corners of the earth. Ships made possible the discovery and settlement of America. Ships brought the argonauts of 1849 around the Horn to golden California. Ships, now become Hoat- ing palaces, convey adventurers and pleasure-seekers to modern Arcadias and Utopias. '4When my ship comes homef'---remains through the ages the fond day-dream of romantic youth. How appropriate as the theme of a book devoted to the doings of youth does the word hecomel -CHARLES B. Mooiuz, Prifzcipal. U31

Many of us are waiting for our ships to come in. Whether we wish ships to come in bringing us riches or whether we wish to embark upon them to see the world, we are all too apt to let it go at wishing. But with Emily Dickinson, I commend to you, Readers of this Almanac, those frigates near at hand, the books of the world. If you choose them wisely and use them properly, you will find that your ship will indeed come in. EDITH M. HoDoK1Ns, Girls' Vice-Principal. MR. MONTGOMERY'S MESSAGE Ships-Piers-Voyages-Ports. Did you ever experience that thrill of slowly pulling away from the dock on a great sea-going liner? What a moment when you suddenly realized that you were no longer a part of your old and familiar surroundings, but instead were afloat! Out from Franklin Pier No. 1931 sail many interesting vessels bound on voyages to ports unknown. For years the mariners in command have been charting their courses. According to the tradition of the sea, the most experienced and tried officers shall man the more powerful and important ships. Future years will assign the commands on this squadron. To the weather beaten, under the safe ballast of heavy burdens, on the high seas will go the honors, while beautiful yachts of pleasure Hit about on calm and peaceful waters with never a new port of entry. As each passenger vessel takes leave from a dock a note of sadness lingers in the hearts of those left behind. Ships from Franklin, as you lift anchor and tug at your engines, throw back to us on land your varied-colored ser- pentine from your well-ordered decks that we may be in a joyful spirit as you leave. In rounding the breakwater look astern for a time that you may see our handkerchiefs waving you bon voyage. Then face your charts, box your compasses and plow ahead. G.
