SENIORS OF 1929 ® ® We know the time is almost here, When we must leave old Wesleyan dear. We feel that folks won ' t have to guess, Tc know our class is a success. V e like to think we ' ve been the best, And what we ' ve done will stand the test, We ' ve tried a helping hand to lend. And hope cur work will never end. They ' ll say the class of twenty-nine, Has been a class with record fine. At every task we ' ve set right in, And we have always tried to win. We ' ve tried to let ambition lead. So some day we may each succeed. We have not dreamed away each day, We grasped each chance that came our way We ' ve tackled Math, and French class, too, The hardest tasks we ' ve tried to do, But with our work we ' ve had some fun, There ' s been a place for everyone. We now stand on the great divide, Looking on the other side, Great honors we hope we may gain. Out there in the world of fame. We ' ve met our teachers with a smile, And they have helped us o ' er each mile, We ' ve been so glad they would hlep us. That we have tried to never fuss. Time now comes swiftly rushing by. And with our standards very high, We plunge headlong into the strife, And hope to make the best of life. The world to us is beckoning, And at the time of reckoning, We hope that we may lead the line, This dear old class of twenty-nine. JOHNSON SMITH TOWNLEY. 9
