People Liked Him People liked him, not because He was rich or known to fame, He had never won applause As a star in any game. His was not a brilliant style, His was not a forceful way, But he had a gentle smile And a kindly word to say. Never arrogant or proud, On he went with manner mild: Never quarrelsome or loud, lust as simple as a childf Honest, patient, brave and true: Thus he lived from day to day, Doing what he found to do In a cheerful sort of way. Wasn't one to boast of gold Or belittle it with sneers, Didn't change from hot to cold, Kept his friends throughout the years Sort of man you like to meet Any time or any place. There was always something sweet And refreshing in his face. Sort of man you'd like to be: Balanced well and truly square: Patient in adversity, Generous when his skies were fair. Never lied to friend or foe, Never rash in word or deed, Quick to come and slow to go In a neighbors time of need. Never rose to wealth or fame, Simply lived, and simply died, But the passing of his name Left a sorrow, far and wide. Not for glory he'd attained, Nor for glory what he had of self, Were the friends that he had gained, But for what he was himself. Heap o' Livinl 'Edgar A. Guest - 7 -

A great deal of work is put into this yearbook, which is perhaps the most original oi all year- books yet published in Manasquan High School. Familiar subjects, both curricular and extra-curricular, are to be found in the Treasure Chest with the addition of a few new articles. The Treasure Chest name has been carried out as the theme of the yearbook, with pictures pertaining to pirates, ships, treasures, and maps introducing the various sec- tions. New articles are to be found on the Board of Education and Health Department, and the Washington Trip has been cleverly written in poetic form.
