The Walls echo their merriment as they pass on commencement day. Classes come, and classes gog memories linger and memories gog yet each leaves some faint print on me, for I am the steps. I see many things pass before me: Citizenship, Knowledge, Wisdom, and Youth. Rare indeed is the combination of all. Each class, each person, each student passes, each pursuing that which he has seen it to take. Wisdom with its burden of knowledge, and knowledge unbound by wisdom is left scattered with the common dirt of the fields. Yet Youth, the most happy of all stages of man, passes most abundantly. We are placed here to lift those who- wish to higher places. They may mount me merrily with little effort, or plod slowly and Wearilyg yet my invitation extends to all forever. Hundreds have passed up and down meg not more than a score have drunk fully of my opportunity. If just one in the hundreds has risen to greater heights and remained there, our effort has not been in vain. Thump, thump, thump-up and down they go. Is there one in this group who can stay at my summit? Only time will tell. -Richard Ebersole. Page 16 W

INTO THE FUTURE A new life awaits ns tomorrowg Arlzfentnre is stirring our heartsg We're eager to go with the others, But with a sigh wL ll depart. For there are friemls we are leaving behind 11-Sf . There are pleasures whose treasures we'll storeg There's a school that we all shall remember Though our work takes as far from its door. For twelve years we've plannecl for commencevnent Weave made it our goal and 108,118 won. The Freshman, the Soj1h01no're, the junior- His share in the work has done. For they are thinking of later Not necessarily of favneg They are learning to work well together Sharing and giving the same. Our ability to sueeeezl may be doubted Onr eyjforts be only in 'vaing But with the ehallenge of life before ns TVe'll fight though we win, lose or gain. -Edna Stacy Page 17
