THE ECHO. ——o—ESES=SEEeEEEEEEEEEEEEeEeEeEeEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee—————— through the Mediterranean Sea. It remind- ed me of all the brave Romans and Phoe- nicians, who had sailed in the same water, and which I had tried to study in the “An- cient History” class in the Santa Rosa High School. It was a fine, sunny morning when the thrilling cry of “Naples”! was given from the mast-head. None but those who have experienced it can form an idea of the de- licious throng of sensations, when an Amer- ican first comes in sight of Italy. There in front of us, arose the gorgeous Mt. Vesuy- ius, with beautiful Naples at its foot, and the quiet bay, blue as the heavens. The small Italian boats were going leisurely from side to side, and the brightly-dressed gitls with their mandolins were singing gaily about our steamer, ready to catch all stray coins thrown from the happy passen- gers above. With a short swish and thud the steamer came to the dock. All now was hurry and hustle—the meeting of acquaint- ances, the greeting of friends, the consulta- tions of men of business. We only—our party of three—were alone. The friends whom we had quickly learned to love, were gone. We stepped upon the land of sunshine, fruit and flowers, but felt we were strangers in a strange land. A maid with a duster Once made a great bluster, A dusting a bust in the hall; And when it was dusted, The bust it was busted, And the bust now is dust; That is all. —Ex.

— WNUUUAY yay ygng tA gs WHAT THE EDITORS THINK The graduating class is preparing dili- gently for the commencement exercises. President McIntosh and his various com- mittees have been at work for the last month, arranging the details. The plans for the annual debate, which we mentioned in the last issue, are now pro- ceeding rapidly. The success of the excursion was far more successful than our hopes. The students who accompanied the team on that memor- able day should be commended for their enthusiasm. No material for the next issue of THE ECHO will be accepted after May 12. Jokes and poems are wanted for that number, but the stories have been selected. In conjunction with the graduating class of June, 1911, the staff of The Echo is plan- ning to make the commencement number a record-breaker both in size and in quality. It is the desire of all concerned to make that number the best in the history of the school. In addition to the regular departments—all of which will be greatly enlarged—special features will be used. The number will con- tain the pictures of the graduates, the pic- tures of the athletes, and the pictures of the members of the staff. The commencement progtam and other articles of especial in- terest to the graduates and their friends will be printed. Significant Upon getting married, Milton wrote “Paradise Lost.” Upon the death of his wife, he wrote “Paradise Regained.”
