My name is Johnny Peeper And I was a stowaway I ' ll show you all the places And I ' ll have lots to do. Come on, you ' ve booked a passage. Now let ' s go and meet the crew. Mathews, Virginia This is the port from which we sail Here our course is laid Here ' s the staunch and sturdy shore From which our voyage is made. ' Dedccatiaa MRS. HELEN T. CLARK The person we have chosen to honor this year, has not only been a teacher but also a very dear friend to each of us. Her warm personality and interest in the students with whom she works have endeared her to us. To you—Mrs. Clark, we sincerely dedicate the 1957 edition of the Clipper, which we hope will always remind you of our appreciation and affection. MR. HENRY W. BURRUSS Principal Here ' s the Captain and his staff We all respect their rank. They make us hold on to our course and sometimes walk the plank Tho storms do come and storms do go They keep a steady hand Until one day in early June We always sight the land. MR.
