The Virage of The 'ZZ' AL. yu see air historic as a class o' the Selmer Hi Schule begins back in the spring of eighteen, when thirty-one lads an' lasses as brite an' intelligunt lookin' as you ever saw, receeved certificuts like, signifyen that thay wuz: elgihle to launch an' man the steamer hy the name of '22. Yu ort to hex' seen us starten outfethere wuz considerhle of a splash when the old boat slid into the water, I kin tel yu. an' it wussent long til we wuz well nigh started on air four years cruise. VVe went right to wurk a-cleenin' out the cobwebs und a-shinin' und a-polishin' til thet ship o' ourn wuz as good as eny thet had iver sailed the sea. Air captin thet yere wuz Ralph Shoekneyfa reel good one, too but afore we got put up fer the next summer, he up an' left, an' Homer Lang tuk his place. XVal, durin' the summer some maid up there minds thet they cuddent stand the viage, und when we put out agin, the next fall, we hed jest nine- teen to luk efter the old hole. Yo' see a feller by the name ot' Lyle Cummins, and two pert yung girls. Helen Runyan and Grace Lykins, put out with us thet yere. 'I'hay soon got ust to the kraft und we sailed her rite throo without sarious trouble. 0, 0' course sometimes the Mathematics wuddent wurk rite, und we had sum purty feerce storms over around Italy. Yu see some got ter tellin' or sort o' hintin' about a feller, who wuz long since ded, Caesar Julius, yu know, what with the weather like it wuz und some sorta superstishus when yu git ter tellin' 'bout the ded, 'sno wunder things wuz sorta ruff. But we managed to liven things up a hit on deck by hevin' some old fashuned good times und one thing an' nother. Air captin thet yere, Hub Brewington. left us when we wuz purty well under way an' one by the name of Lew- elleng Mary Jane, it wuzff sorta tuk t' givin' orders, und we did air best to carrie 'em out. Yu see it wuz purty eleer thet we'd hey ter wurk togither, so when the order rung out l-leeve Ho we usually did. XVe made purty good speed thet viage, und efter a rest of bout four mounths we started out agin, hedded fer '21, Thet time it wuz Kenneth Sipe. who'd allways held furst rate post, Virgil Pittenger und Helen Run- yan left us fer other ships. XVe stil hed the ol' Blue an' XVhite a-lloatin' in the breze, und by this time we'd begun to reelize what she ment to us. I'll tel yu, fellers, it jist made our blud tlow faster to see her a-holdin' her own agin the blast! By this time iver-body nue ther job an' stuk to it. No matter how the old bote rocked an' tossed, we stuk. und felt as much to hum when the see wuz ruil' as when it wussent, und all the while we wuz a-shinin' und a-cleenin' her up. The XVhite on her prow wuz pure un' the Blue wuz true-not the kind thet a little wettin' will warsh off. XVe hed aighteen passungers thet yere when we started out. Yu see, Jay Kirklin hed jined us rite ofl n the real an' it wussent no time til Marx
