ILASSIES In the building of a city, just as in the building of our education, we have grown matured with years. When we entered as freshmen, we were like the first settlers at A lki, who laid the foundation of Seattle with crude implements in a vast, unknown world, calling this first location N ew York Alki or New York Bye and Bye, and dream- ing of the time when the tiny settlement would become a city. Just as our Sophomores were beginning to broaden their horizons, they, too, at Alki looked toward the future, realizing the need of a deep harbor. Canoeing across the bay, they sounded Smithis cove with a horse shoe and a clothes line and found the harbor they de- sired. Soon a new settlement took shape, adoptin g the name of Chief Sealth for its own. Henry Yesler built a saw mill, with a harsh whistle, for this new enterprise. The village was building then, preparing for a third era of growth and importance to the state and nation. As the Juniors awoke to a sense of responsibility, so the pioneers reached out to link the nation with Seattle. I n the legislature S eattle's pioneers served the territory, they built roads over the mountains, and James J. Hill here found a terminal for the Great Northern Railway. And now Seattle belongs to the world. Her ships sail to distant lands, her people are building, educating, advancing all over the world. The pioneers' New York Alki has been realized, and we who are going from our school into the world may help carry on the task so bravely begun by S eattle,s pioneers.
