Senior (Tlass 4 oem The golden light of our high school days, Is slowly fading from us, But through the mists of coming years There brightly gleams a promise. We are to sail on an untried sea, And know not what luck will bring us, But things we’ve learned we’ll not forget Wherever fate may fling us. From this dear old place to other halls, Our various duties call us; But we’ve a memory to cherish dear Whatever may befall us. The rainbows of the future, And the splendors of that day, Cannot erase a picture, painted In the crimson and the gray. And thoughts of all the joys you gave us Will then our journey light us, We’ll gather strength from these past years, And let no fortune slight us. But cast upon life’s billows deep, Where all the waters foaming, Dreams of you will guide us safely, And we’ll anchor in the gloaming. DOROTHY BISHOP ’21 Thirty
