Lectures in the hall were given, Sometimes short, and sometimes long, Liked them alL preferred the latter For two reasons; was it wrong? To a dance the Seniors asked us. One cool evening in the spring, We were all so very grateful For the pleasure it did bring. When the Seniors had departed Never to return again, H0w the Juniors were elated To think themselves the leaders then! Graduation was the feature Of the pleasant month of June, And in all the Junioral chorus. Not one voice waa out of tune. If the saying of our parents Still holds true for you and me, Then our schooledays are the happiest That our lives shall ever see. Though the truth of this old saying We may question and deny, To these days well look with pleasure XVheIl the years have passed us by. With :XCnCElH we have struggled, Suffered with him. many a fear, And if our voices ever faltered 'Twas him with sympathy to hear. 5 Chemistry, thou noble science, Which our minds have tried to grasp, Scorn us not if we have mingled All things in a hopeless mass. Though we know at two month ending, There will always; be a test, Yet we're ever in c011ft19ion, Mingling moans with all the rest. An excursion to the gas works We enjoyed one rainy day, And we started on inspecting With but very slight delay. Our instructors, wise and watchful, We have vexed you 0ft we knnw; We would ask you to forgive us, Not forget us, when we go. We bequeath our bright example To the Class of 1909; May they follow in our footsteps. Strive to make their lives sublime. Courage! Sophomores and Freshmen Soothe each fevered, aching hrnw. For by great, increasing effort, You may climb where we stand now. W'alnut Hills, beloved High School. Soon we'll pass beyond your gate, But our loyalty we pledge you From the Class of 1908. -E. V D., :C. P. A.

4 We are all now anxious Seniors, Striving to attain the goal, Where our labors will be ended. And in life we'll take our ride. Ere we pass from the great portals Of our famed and cherished school, Let us think of all our pleasures Planned by its wise-guided rule. When as Freshmen we Hrst entered Its imposing threshold grand. How our young hearts quakecl and trembled, We. the little unkntm'n band. To the topmost hall assembled. There, to come and learn our fate, Chose 'twixt ologies and Latin, Ere we left the front iron gate. Very soon it seemed familiar. As we marched through spacious hall, Stood in awe of every teacher, All Of 11.x both great and small. lVearily we Climbed the staircase. In our wild pursuit of fame, Learned to call a minute substance By an aweeinspiring name. History of the Class w Over books not always poring, Hf pleasures, too, we had our share, Football won our admiration, For defeats were very rare. That first year! How we enjoyed it! And we feel that ne'er again Shall we know in all 0111' h'fe-time Half am much as we knew then. Next year we translated Caesar, Traced his armies' route from Rome, Often Wished he neler existed. Or his wife had kept him home. Then our minds were sorely puzzled liy angles great and angles small, Parallelugranm confused us, Yet we tlill explain them all. Ere we left for our vacation, Papers large and white were given; By the task of choosing courses We to madness nigh were driven. Some chose Hist'ry. others Physics, Each for fame did wish to aspire, Those who took the well-known science Flights of steps did sometimes tire. I
