THE CLASS SONG TUNE THE WHIFFENPOOF SONG” The time has come when we must say good-bye We hate to go, We’re leaving you dear old Atkins High, We’re sad you know. Go you know it’s just a must, And we hope you will be just, For we’ll ever hold you in out thoughts And put you in our trust. We’ll never forget the things you taught us here, No, No, No, We’ll always hold and cherish them As something very dear. We’ll never forget our good old high school years They were always filled with cheers Though our eyes are blinded with tears We hate to go. There’s not a song that we can sing, Expressing how we feel But we have to be on our way To start our life’s career. So it’s farewell dear friends We’re leaving you behind And until we meet in future years, It’s farewell until then. Doris Wynecof THE CLASS POEM TO OUR AFMA MATER Our stay with you, dear Atkins, Has been a pleasant one We are especially grateful For all the work you’ve done In preparing us for higher scores And higher heights than yours. We entered your doors four years ago. Although our minds were slow, We studied hard and made the grades, Secured knowledge that will never fade. As we pass through your doors today With diplomas in our hands, We’ll think of you as we go away And of your plans. Along life’s highway, we’ll wander Taking our chances here and yonder. Some going East, others West Seeking things we consider best. But where ere we go o’er land or sea, Dear Atkins, we’ll always remember thee. Alma R. Lewis

Oh, the crystal ball has grown dark again, and this time it does not light up. This signifies that it has spoken and is at the end of its revelation — but remember, the crystal ball always speaks the truth. Prophet — Luella Brown
