aniom cyiatozy After sailing another nautical mile on the educational sea, we pause and view before us the sea of life and success, while looking back we see be- hind us the deep waters of history. Our Senior Crew, which consists of eight mariners, all climbed aboard ship in the fall of '47 and together we've sailed our last mile of high school. Four of usg Ethel, Darlene, Cleo and Ada, began our voyages from other ports and the other four--Junior, Glen, Fred, and Helen, attended I. M. S. three years, and having taken the equi- valent of one year by correspondence, will graduate with us in the first graduating class of I. M. S. When we entered I. M. S. as sophomores, our group of eight, which was entirely different from our present group of eight, immediately took up the responsibilities of being upper classmen and have continued until this day. Being yourig and carefree and not completely willing to give up our childish ways, we were at that time poor examples for the inexperienced freshmen that had entered I. M. S. with us, but after some practice and per- sistent pursuing of more perfect patterns and ideals, we, through the weeks and months, have become the model senior class of I. M. S. history. Our junior year, with our group increased to eleven, proved to be very successful, and it is here that we learned the real thrill of working to- gether as a group. With parties and a class trip we had many opportunities to put our organization to work. It was here also that we lei-ned class loyal- ty. Organizing our class was the first undertaking of our class in this our senior year, Choosing Elizabeth Showalter, as our sponsor, we began our class activities in the Home Ec. kitchen. Heavier matters now weigh on our shoulders -- our biggest projects being the making of the school annual, The Reverie , and plans for commencement. We meet every Tuesday noon in the Home Ec. kitchen for lunch and to discuss any current matters of importance, after which we have a short fellowship meeting. This has be- come very much a part of us and we seem like a big happy family. We look forward to a class trip to Chicago and additional class activities. Whether we take up 1ife's work from here or whether we entercol- lege, we feel dependent on a Higher Power, therefore with Christ as our Pilot and the Bible as our compass we are certain that Though the billows roll -- we will sail on.
