DES OT? Ay eee 11 Class Poem Since 1914 You want me to tell you the story, which started o’er four years ago, How this group has rallied together, and strived to keep things on the go; Of how they have gained their successes, all working with full power of man? So come, let us sit down together, I'll tell you as well as I can. T'was back in the year 1914, the month was September, I think,, We started this course of true friendship, all joined by a Biue and Gold link; At first others thought we were timid, and needed, perhaps, a good shove, But though we were then very bashful, determined to stand far above. The very next year we grew wiser, and increased our courage two fold. The others soon learned to respect us, looked up at the youngsters so bold. But we didn’t get any swelled head, we kept right on plodding along, At times we felt very discouraged, but tried to keep singing a song. Then after a summer’s vacation, together began a new year, We felt we were pulling together, so held up our heads without fear, We soon made a hit with our elders, all knew we were marked for success, That third vear we spent as a body went off with some pep, we confess. This year for the last time we’ve gathered, to finish up work thus begun, Some hard propositions we’ve tackled, but fought out our battles and won, We’ve made many warm and true friendships, to many we’re known for our fame, This last year has been quite successful, we’ve proudly raised higher our name. Now, let me imagine the future, and wonder what life holds in store; While some take advanced education, life’s trials will give others still more. And after this war has been ended, among us war’s honors we'll hold, We’ve learned what to do for our country, we’ve learned ’neath the Blue and the Gold. Monroe O’DONNELL.
