The Class of 1930 Looks Ahead—a Toast Written by Mrs. Gertrude F. Olsen, Class Advisor, for the class banquet, May 24, 1930 To-night as a class you are gathered here, Clear paths you have trodden thus far, And now meet your sight, to left and to right, Dark trails to the summit afar. You peer to the right, you peer to the left, You wonder what fate has in store, And you ask me to tell you what lies on ahead As Life’s uncharted ways you explore. Alas! Life is vast,—so immeasurable, too— It’s quite an impossible feat To relate all you’ll find as you journey along On its every byway and street. But some things you will find just as all mankind, And these few I can tell you about, So perhaps you will meet the chance of defeat Of your hopes, with a courage devout. You'll find charming highways and sunshiny days And beauty and laughter and song, You'll find some kind thoughts, some beautiful deeds As your pathways you travel along. There’ll be smiles if you smile, and frowns if you frown, And courage will flow back to you If courage you spare for the others who share The burden of striving with you. There’ll be days dark and drear, without mirth or cheer, And loneliness, heartache, and pain, For if we had none of the days without sun, We’d not know the purpose of rain. And a life that’s all luxury, laughter, and froth, Has nothing to give of great worth To science or art, or the world’s money mart, Or to anything else here on earth. Your goal you must gain, so “Strive to Attain,” With eyes on the heights far ahead, Be virtue your guide, your vision be wide, Your ambition by courage be fed. Don’t forget you should lend a hand to a friend On steep slopes that are stony with strife, Under Time’s severe test, may this Class prove the best That our High School has offered to Life! { 29 }
