ARTHUR M. LARSEN M. LOUISE DRAMEDY MABEL I. DYER CLASS POEIVI TRUE LOYALTY When We have done some deed the World will honor Or quietly have wrought some unseen good, When we have met defeat and smiled undaunted And kept on doing just the best We could, When we have he-lped to make this old world better Because of the small part that we have played, Or known a man who found his life the sweeter Because of some small effort we have madeg When we have given the world the best that's in us And learned that if we don't win, we can try, Then may we feel we have been true and loyal, And worthy of your praise, dear Natick High.
