EAU CLAIRE HIGH SCHOOL PARODY Still sits the High School by the road, A magnificent building erected; Behind it still the peach trees grow Of the choicest varieties selected. Within, the teac hers’ desks are seen Distinctly of modern construction, The newly floor, the adjustable seats. The library of splendid collection. The pictures hanging on the walls, Portrays an intelligent chooser. I he assembly with it’s ambitious crew, Has never been the loser. The classrooms are equipped well, The gym is very spacious. Within it s walls, victories were won, Never ferocious, but very gracious. Four years ago a winter sun, Shone on a raging fire. It completely ruined the old school house, To be replaced by our heart’s desire. It touched the hearts of many a child And eyes were full of grieving, W hen they saw the destruction of the fire. And knew the school was leaving. Still memory to a Senior Class, That old school house is showing. Thi s new school which is on her grave Has for the three years been growing. We saw the High School furnished well, I hanks to the noble taxpayers. They’ll soon have a marvelous story to tell. For they were the foundation lavers. We lived to learn in Eau Claire High How few schools passed above her, Rejoicing in her triumphs and her gains, Because you see we love her. So long may she stand in her glory. That occasionally during the future. We can stand up as her loyal defenders And say, “She was once our tutor.” F. ’23 Twenty-four
