TIIE CHRONICLE 9 The Senior picnic was held in Hanover Park, on June 14. The menr bers of the class were at the High School at 10 o’clock, as planned, when our president suddenly remembered that he hadn’t ordered the truck! Finally about 11:30 it came and found us all more or less out of patience; but once started we were again in good spirit. By the time we arrived we were all hungry - no need to say we ate all we could ! . The feature of the afternoon was the ball game between the boys and girls. Nobody really knows who won - the girls claim the victory. Another popular amusement was roller skating, some of the faculty making a first attempt. l.ater in the afternoon there was an exciting boat race between our principal and the president of our class. The former won needless to say. The merry-go-round and dance-hall were also made use of. We were forced to come home on account of rain. The day, nevertheless, was voted a huge success. The Senior Banquet will be held in the Masonic Hall, Thursday evening, June 21. The alumni have been invited. Following is the toast list: Fric Malmquist, Toastmaster: Ethel Chapman, Past and Future: Margaret Fitzgerald, Faculty: Mildred O’Neil, Junior Class; Thomas Latham, Athletics: Katherine Pattee, Sophomore Class: Henry Hill, Dramatics: Frances Wooding, Freshman Class: Katherine Riggs, Our New High School: Harold Stearns, Patriotism: OUR CLASS GIFT In the public library in Boston adorning the walls of the delivery room are fifteen famous panels of Mr. Abbey; a man of great system and thoroughness, who spent years of research all over Europe in all of the authorities good or bad, to find material for these decorations, so that when he did begin, every stroke would have its meaning. Almost every one is acquainted with the legend of the Holy Grail. The panel, Solomon’s Ship, symbolizes the wisdom needful to bear one to enlightment. The frail bark glides along in perfect safety across the stormy waves, under lowering clouds, that spread darkly above a narrow streak of sunlit sky which brightens the wide horizen with promises of a prosperous ending for the voyage. The sail is always spread to the favoring wind for the Guardian of the Grail is guiding the the ship. Sitting serenely in the bow while she guards the Holy Treasure with tender solicitude is the angel whose power leads the vessel in security. The Grail casts its pure light upon Gala-had and his two faithful companions, Percival and Bors, who have been privileged to accompany him. Galahad is in adoration, for only he perceives the source of the glory that falls upon them all Percival and Bors may never behold the Grail itself, yet their fidelity joins them with their pure-souled comrade in arms. The ship which was built by Solomon has a unique history. It had been predicted to the wise old King that the last of his blood should be a man, and as good knight as Joshua. Solomon had built this in a cunning and marvellous manner. The ship having been finished, Solomon waited to go on board, but because of some miraculous letters written by an angel, he dared not enter. As he drew back, the ship was shoved into the sea and sped away. How it was kept through all those years no one can say, but its destiny from the first was to bring Galahad to Sarras. We hope that this picture will symbolize to the classes that are to follow their careers as they are piloted through the perilous vtaters of the first few years of school life. We, the class of 1917, have chosen it as an appropiate gift and present it as a patting rememberance to our High School. Harold Stearns
