THE ORACLE 13 Class Poem The early years of childhood rolled away, Then came we to our Alma Mater true, To struggle onward, learning day by day, Cheered and encouraged neath the Red and Blue. The minds and thoughts were crude that then we brought; Like clay unshapen by the sculptor’s tool; But years of earnest work a change has wrought And moulded us to serve in life’s great school. Our High School life’s been full of work and play; ’Twas seldom shadows darkened us for long; We’ve had true guides to help and point the way; To show the right; to guard us from the wrong. True pleasure we in comradesship have known As firmer links of friendship have us bound; Our loyalty’ to Plainfield High has grown And here a common cause we alli have found. But four long years have passed ne’er to return; The future now our hopes and fears doth hold; Though ever in our hearts shall glow and burn The longing for the pleasant life of old. Ambition sends us on with hope anew, As we look forward o’er life’s broad highway, Seeking to find a nobler, clearer view And reach a higher goal while yet we may. —HAROLD M. NEELY 716
