THE BATTLEFIELD Motto : Ijive on the Heights Class 1913 Flower: Sweet Pea Colors: Lavender and Green The fragrant flowery days of June have come to us again. But we view their golden splendor with a gladness fraught with pain. They bid us cease from labor, and we find that message sweet. Yet they bring another message which our hearts ache to repeat. Chorus Dear Class of 1913, we tonight must say farewell, The sorrow that we feel at this no mortal tongue can tell. For two short years we ' ve toiled here, and now our work is o ' er, We part tonight to meet again, united never more. We now must leave the Normal where we ' ve spent such happy hours, And our sorrow at this thought now plans for future .joy o ' erpowers,- Tho ' we ' ve often longed for freedom when our world appeared unkind, We realize that with it we must leave school joj-s behind. We now must leave school life, and leave each privilege and rule, For we are passing from school life to life ' s great glorious school. Here we have been preparing for the work that we must do. For the world is needing workers who have pro -en tried and true. To leave our comrades makes us sad and fills our hearts with pain, We know this happy company will never meet again. The brightest gem of memory ' s crown is that whose shining rays, Brings back the recollection of these hapjjy past school days. Elsie Coleman. 19
