Sf, The pilot was chosen and Francis Kidder took the wheel. Four seas we sailed that year and learned much in each, of English in England, Latin, in ltalyg Algebra, with the old Greeksg and Physiography, by traveling in differ- ent countries. Our greatest festivity of the year was our first party. Every- body came and such a time as we had. The voyage was all too short, how- ever, and soon we landed for the summer and left our ship for repairs. The first of September soon came and after three months of recreation we were ready for our second voyage on the same old ship. When we arrived at port we saw a new ship across the way which would be completed in time for our Junior voyage. Lyman Turner took the pilots chair and away we sailed. The ship was crowded, but it didn't dampen our spirits. Our finest party was here put on, and everybody appeared in mask. What a time we had! Those days of our voyage will linger long in our minds-the fine times we had, and the jolly friendships formed. The winter months sailed by and spring soon came. The Seniors were found plotting mutiny near the end of ihe. voyage, and with hardly any persuasion the Juniors joined themg we not to be outdone by upper-classmen, also joined in. Accordingly we landed and broke away from our work for a half day's good time. But our fun was short-lived and we will also bear long in mind the examinations we took at the end of the voyage, as a consequence for our misdemeanor. And again we will remember the raging Seniors who forfeited their two weeks vacation for their short half-day of fun. Again the summer appeared on the horizon and we disembarked for rest. Our new ship was finished when we returned and there in the fall of nineteen hundred seventeen began one of the happiest years of our voyageg Glendon Morgan took the tilter and away we sailed on our third voyage. We worked the hardest ever this year because there were so many things to do. Long we worked on the junior-Senior reception, and our efforts were rewarded by the finest reception ever put on. Only one had left our band to fight in the World war. This was our classmate, D. Smith, who was unfortunate enough to have broken his leg in New York. After spending six months in the hospital he received a fur- lough in time to return and enjoy our Junior-Senior reception. He soon left again and this time for France. The lesson of the former years sneak picnic still held a high place in the minds of the Seniors, and they went to The Powers That Be with uplifted hands imploring that a half day be granted them for their would-be
