so g THE MIRROR, g Zi Vagmrp HELENA NIAXVVELL, '27 The Pilot of Destiny stood, all-powerful, watching his great uni- verse rotating. He had directed, since time began, all courses on the elusive sea of life. At his slightest touch, shining, glittering, new ves- sels had swayed, crashed, then slowly disappeared under the mighty tide of humanity. However, there were many ships which had sailed peacefully to some port, filled with browsing ilocks, serene skies, sun- light, and kindness. Thus, faster and faster spun this world, until the weaver of manifold schemes pointed his long, bony finger at the year 1927. He smiled, a hypocritical sort of smile, and from the whole terrestrial ball, selected a very insignificant port. Nevertheless, the sight fascinated him and he slowed the rapidity of the globe a bit so he might study affairs. This is what he observed: In a small port where skies were always blue, and waters a.lways tranquil, a fleet of vessels had gradually been built. They were 160 in number. Finally, after much care, time, patience and hard labor, the ships were all in condition to sail out on the turbulent sea. So, on a day three years before the Pilot of Destiny chanced to see them, they had embarked for the first time under the guidance of the good ship Waltham High School. Now, after being protected by this sturdy ship for three years, they had come to a place where each little vessel had to set sail for itself. The good ship had to leave them, for the time had presented itself when they no longer needed a sheltering sail. Eve-ry boat in the fleet looked fresh and sparkling, and every boat carried a ship load of dreams. T Then the good ship Waltham High School glided back toward port, until it was merely at black speck on the horizon, the dear memory to each vessel. The wind blew with a strong breeze, while the partings were be- ing said. Some had chosen north, others south, and very da.ring crafts had preferred to follow the stars in the east and west. Each was eager to test its sails for itself, each was a little impatient to get started, and with a sky blue with truth, clouds white wih simplicity, breezes fresh with true enthusiasm, they began their great voyages, to end in what- ever way pleased the all-potent Pilot. O, Weaver of Destinies, as we stand here to-day in this humble little port, hea.r our prayers which we offer for the guidance of these ships. All cannot reach ports. of flowers and iieckless skies, all cannot carry forever the cargoes of youthful dreams, but while you are gazing down on them, be just a little more kind, a little more gentle, so the hard rocks of failure, the hurricanes of despair a.nd the whirlpools of fear may strike them less hard. Thus, Mariner of Fate, direct them all, and be compassionate.
