The Voyage of 1911 (yh|N the fal1 1907 the class of 1911 ernbarked on their shiP Good Hope, for a perilous journey of four years on the Sea of Knowl-cLy edge. The crew was composed of young, inexperienced adventurers who were eager seekers of learning. They had never made a voyage across the deep, dark ocean. Before this time, their adventures had been confined to lakes and small streams. The officers of the crew were Bert Rees, Captain; Ruth Houston, First Mate; Lillian Waechter, Second Mate; Elbert Nolte, Purser; Miss Gorsuch, Pilot. Since the beginning of the Good Hope’s voyage, she has been within hailing distance of three other ships. The four ships have been in charge of eight officers with Commodore Conner and Admiral Crosby at the helm. At the end of the second year the ship of 1908 disappeared. But it had hardly been lost from view when the ship of 1912 was seen steaming toward the Good Hope and her two remaining companions. On several occasions the officers of the different ships have held councils of peace and war. So far the voyage has been a success. At different times the crew has been enchanted by the vocal strains of Captain Rees, First Mate Houston and Mr. Bush and Mr. Brookings, and by the instrumental music of Misses Heilman, Saal, Fehrman and Heisel. Miss Goldsmith also contributed to the social side of the voyage by occasionally delivering a declamation. Several times the Good Hope has landed at a port where a member of the crew resided. Then the evening would be spent there in a social gathering. Among these gatherings were a Halloween party at First Mate Houston’s, a box social at Miss Charlton’s, and parties at Miss Goldsmith's and Miss Campbell’s. There was also a ride on a hay-rack to Miss Dillen’s country home About the middle of the second year a farewell party was given to Pilot Gorsuch, at which time the worthy officer, owing to a pressing engagement on land, was forced to resign. Once, near the close of the first year, the officers of the squadron held a conference. They decided to hold a literary and athletic contest on an island named Pekin. The day of the meet dawned bright and clear and by noon the four had arrived at the island. All the events were closely con- “A thing devised by the enemy.”—Exams.
