They were Dora Schmidt, Lily Schmidt, Alice Shaw. Inez Farabee, Miriam Lutes, Marcia Dil- lingham. Hazel Mai shall. Alice Hanrahan, Iris Babcock, Marjorie Drake, Ruth Johnson, Leslie Sanders, and Edward Esserman. Emerald Isle was the first port entered. For nine months our boat was anchored near this verdant place of spring like beauty. There we met Mr. Welch, who was willing to teach us the plant and animal life of this new land, hut his lessons soon gave us the Biology Blues. He also taught us Algebra which we thought would he interesting, but in a few weeks he began to invite us to noon tea parties where the only refreshments were ’X . • Y ” and “Z” served with chalk and erasers. Miss Calkins taught ns the • lingua Latina.” the speech of Emerald Isle and Miss Cor- lcw gave us lessons in English that we might keep our mother tongue in mind. By May we had completed our explorations and sailed home for three months. The following September we embarked again, although our crew was less because of the desertion of Alice Shaw and Miriam Lutes. Soon we drifted to Applesauce Islam! where we found other instructors ready to meet us. Mrs. Bockeltnann took us to a bridge from which we watched Caesar leading his legions thru Gaul. Miss (’orlew interested us in Ancient History and in English. That we might be able to survey other places of travel, Mr. Carlson ex- plained the mysteries of Geometry. The next September we again sailed over the sea. directing our hark to the Isles of Greece. Here we were greeted hv two beautiful muses. Thalia and Clio. Cnder the guidance of the latter, we prepared the famous Liberty Echo of 1927. Thalia directed us in tin production of a play “The Delegates” which we present- ed April 8th and 9th. During this time we continued our interest in English, History and Geometry and learned much about natural phenomena through a study of Physics. $ And now five are completing the fourth voyage: Alice Han- rahan, Marjorie Drake, Hazel Marshall and Leslie Sanders. We have been spending our time on Treasure Island, studying English, Arithmetic, Geography, Civics, Vocations and Economics. Our teachers have had to watch us carefully because we are continually slipping away from our work to climb the Spy Glass Mountains and gaze through rose-colored glasses toward the ‘Male of Golden Dreams,” our future! -----------o---------- Class Poem of 1928 i. The days of school were fleeting fast As through Liberty’s door did pass A class who bore by day and night A banner with this strange device, Excelsior II. Four happy years they did each task With honest effort to the last Four happy years they saw the light That led to Graduation Night, Excelsior III. Now travelers by one faith they’re bound w v To travel all the world around Still carrying high through years of strife The banner with the same device, Excelsior — MARJORIE DRAKE I— Page Sev n — ■!'WWHBWfFtClTOlB'l imiipriiiiiiifni iircmiiriainrMfFir-iifiniaiRfnifflaifHiiHiEiiiinmiDBniiiiii»
