ClaMu (pDQVYL Do you recall when you first became a part of BHS? You were offered fields of learning And a chance for real success. Many took the gift she offered. Others though that they could Get along without the learning— Save it for some other day. It seemed that you had lots of time To get an education, For it would be a whole four years Before your graduation. And then before you knew it Those whole four years flew by. And you found yourself about to bid old BHS goodbye. Possibly without your knowing (Your mind on homework bent) The happiest years of your life had Passed, But all were wisely spent. Do you remember—Oh what joy—to watch the Raiders win a game. What mattered when they lost the fight, they played square just the same. Now that you're about to leave, and journey on alone, Don't forget that what you reap is always what you've sown. Keep your mem'ries always warm, deep down in your heart And think of Brookville High School When your eyes with tear drops start. Tell all your friends and loved ones, and some you've yet to meet About how Brookville High School has all the others beat. Don't forget your classmates, as you older grow Nor the patience of the teachers and the love they always show. Through all your life keep mem'ries tucked within your heart And when at last the time comes when you from this world must part, When the angels give you wings and bid that you must fly. While on your way to heaven, won't you think of Brookville High? 20 —Ruby Knisely
