gg r-i.u..-1-:N gig, from Graduation Heights, where our older sisters and brothers were enjoy- inv' the Freshman Party. Miss Marker said that by traveling fast we could reach 'tGraduation Ileightsu by September. Miss Benster now became our guide and we arrived at Graduation Heights on time but our Freshman Party was long delayed. XVe found that it was necessary for us to travel many miles of rocky roads called Bank Dis- count, Ratio, Civics, etc., before arriving at Auditorium, where parties are always held. VVhen we finally arrived, the party was worth tl1e trouble and we were all glad we had come. One day toward the end of the year, We were called together and told that the Fult.on's voyage ended at Graduation heights. NVe had long been expecting this and some of us were very sorry. A great picnic was planned to celebrate all the good times we had had o11 board the t'Fulton and we cer- tainly did celebrate. On the last day on board the Fulton there was a great scramble for our passports, which were required by the captain of the Scott The Scott is a much larger boat than the Fulton, and, of course, we look forward to traveling on such a beautiful ship, but our fond memories of Fulton will stay with us always. -Kate Moules, Shelby Morrison, Russel Davis.

575' il- L.II-'PSN e-53 floods and every possible obstacle to our progress. The trip was so hazardous that we changed guides many times before we finally reached the interior. VVe secured Miss Ebert, Miss Mleybourne and Miss Bramwell, for our new leaders and determined to rest from our trip in Central Fifth, but alas we found the country in a serious revolution owing to a division of Fractions. The Dividends wanted to keep the old stable government but the Divisors wanted to turn everything upside down. Our guides were in favor with both factions and this was lucky for us because whenever we got into trouble with the authorities they came to our rescue. At the end of the year, we gladly embarked for the Kingdom of Deci- mals. Some of our friends, we were sorry to find, were held as prisoners of war but Miss Marker said that General Summer Session would secu1'e their release and they could join us later at Decimals. The King of Decimals gave each of us a key to the capital called 'tDecimal Point and for the rest of the year it surely kept Miss Neja, Miss Yeslin and Miss Petty busy keeping track of our various keys. In spite of their etforts, some of us lost our keys before the end of our stay and had to use the special master-key Tutor to let us out when we were ready t.o leave. Here we met the most interesting character, 'tMiss Nature Study. lYe wanted to hear all the wonderful things she knew and through our interpreter, Miss Yeslin, we heard her stories of the stars, birds, flowers and trees. lfVe were eager to know more, but Miss Marker said our ship was due at History Hills in September, so we left. XVe were now chaperoned on our eighth journey by Miss Amesse and Miss Perkins. This latter friend lead us to our first athletics. Basketball and baseball were patiently taught us and we had many successful games. VVe did not have much time for athletics, however, for before us loomed the steep, rocky cliffs of History Hills. Beside us, as we climbed these dangerous heights, walked the veterans of the R-evolutionary NVar. Their long stories were ex- ceedingly interesting but numerous dates and laws they told us about weighed upon our minds. VVe were only half way up 'tHisto1'y Hills when our guides lead us over to 'tEnglish Plaines. There we met Mr. and Mrs. Verb and their family of little verbs, coming toward us. The smaller verbs seemed exhausted and Miss Perkins informed us that we should carry them with us on our journey. Some of the baby verbs were very 'tactive and caused much trouble, others were very passive, but we1'e even more confusing at times than the active verbs. After much hard labor with the verbs, Miss Amesse announced that we would have a rest from the verbs and directed us to Percentage Valley. On the way some of our friends took the wrong trail but were soon rescued by Miss Keplinger, our emergency guide. In this valley we found it was customary for certain citizens to car1'y 'Za signs and these signs made them one hund1'ed times as important as those citi- zens who carried no signs. As we were busy figuring out to XVll0lT1 the W signs belonged, we heard a loud cry from the distant hills. Our guides informed us that the noise came Twenty-Four
