1 A Q13 M' Wi: .W V I 'fi ' A l f ' Igfef ' ' A W I I Y Eight Annual Theme Un board, you buccaneers! We are off for the bounding main. This year's quest will lead to the treasure of knowledge, so give ns the best you have, A lot of work will be necessary before we find it. Step lively there, Freshmen. Hoist the anchor and shove off. VVith a will! VVith a will! We will have to work together on this trip. -Such were the words that greeted us as we set out on our long trip into parts unknown. Many days passed by, and we were far out to sea. V'e learned that only the wise men became officers, so to follow their advice was best. As Sophomores and more experienced mem- bers of the crew, we took our place alongside the bold, husky fighters, who made our name re- spected in every port. Bloody battles, jolly songs, stories told by candle-light made our com- radeship one of joy. After days of labor and continuous search, we sighted Treasure Island. Junior officers of our fearsome crew were we, with only a short distance more before we reached the treasure. As Seniors, head officers of the band, with all our past experience behind us, we took up the last step of the search. Again Captain Smollctt shouted, We have landed, so bring out the charts and maps, me hearties. Forty paces from the old elm due west in a bee-line, and we reach the spot. Out with the shovels and axes. VVork with a will, mates ! At last, the chest lay in view, ready to be opened. 'Twas bound round with the wisdom of the past, and the teachings that great men had left the world. With our past experience, the clasp was easily broken, the lid removed, and then there broke upon our view the greatest treasure known to man. Knowledge shone forth in form of pieces-of-eight. Jewels of learning from the far corners of the earth were there before our eyes. History's most precious coins appeared. Crowns, shillings, rubles, a worthy reward for our honest sweat and toil, were then divided amongst us. To those who did their best and honestly, went the largest rewards, but every one received a sha re. Our band is now breaking upg some continue on the seas of College Life in search of further treasureg others embark on that broad ocean from which there is no turning back. While each one sails his vessel over seas both rough and calm, may this log recall lurking memories of that first long trip which ended in a great reward. -1930-
