Class Prophets - Ruby Ferguson, Helen Lane CLASS POEM School, which we enter at the age of six, Learning to read, write, and work arithmeticg The place where we practice and not in vain To play a tougher and harder game. Not baseball, not football--no, never! But the game of life which is played forever. Twelve years have ticked by on the old clock's face, Since we began our school life race. The clock is beginning to strike--the time is drawing near, When we must leave the school that we love so dear, To reach the goal toward which we endeavor, That is Backward never Onward ever, To the teachers whose classes we have attended, Who our rights have always defended. Our thanks in words we Cannot say, For teaching us to face our future in a braver way. To the oncoming students of A.H.S.: Make use of all your opportunities This is our only request. An now, dear Classmates, the clock's striking has come to an endg We will not say good-by, but God be with you till we meet again. 19 Lewis Harvey
