Gllanz Harm In our memory lane of the future, When we sit recollecting the past, We'll return to the days spent at Draper, To the time that's now passing so fast. We'll remember, and smile to remember, How we thought that our lessons were badg For our passage through life will have shown That they're nothing to struggles we've had. And no doubt it will give us great pleasure To recall our old friends once again: But how strange it will seem to compare them To the adults we'll know then as them. In the future when older and wiser 4 A desire we will all perhaps feel Is the wish that we all could grow younger And return to the days now so real. So let's live our young lives to perfection, Then we'll never have cause for regret. And whatever position we rise to, We'll remember old Draper High yet. Uhr Brapzrizm US NORMAN GUNDERSON. 23
