“To me, Benny, the merging of' two rival high schools suggests the union of the thirteen colonies of my day. Each desired to retain its own indi- viduality, clinging to old traditions and rights. Gradually, however, as the new Americans lived and worked together, the benefits of unification became increasingly evident. A strong, compact union which proved its ability to meet and over- come ail obstacles, was moulded. So, Benny, will it be with that fine school of yours that bears my name. Differences will be forgotten and new heights attained, far surpassing those reached by either school in the past.” “Well, sir, we think ourselves that this com- bination is tops! Washington brought to Frank- lin its famous spirit of “Do in Co-operation,” Franklin already had its practical democracy, something you won’t find in so many schools. Why, after we got together we even made the pages of a nationally known picture magazine. What’s more, we copped the soccer and basket- ball championships. With your great ideals be- fore us, Mr. Franklin, you can bet we’ll keep on building a greater and better school.”

Let steady foresight point the way And rare our actions lead; Our deeds and not our words w ill lay Foundations of our ereed. With loyalty to Franklin High. With harmony in thought. We shall with single purpose strive For strength in honors sought. Let hope acknowledge no defeat. And friendship he our rule; Lei time with measured march repeat The spirit of our school.
