Dedicated To The Spirit Of Modern Youth Child— You stand so alone on a high Hill-top—’way up on top of the world; Above your head the blue, blue sky, Below, at your feet, is life unfurled. A nameless question haunts your eyes; Your heart is taut with fear, Your helpless hands in suppliance rise, You sense a Power in the skies. Before you and beside you— Behind you and above— You feel the dim, dread future press, The surge of hidden years. You long for things you can’t express— Vague visions, dreams and fleeting fears— You reach for things you can’t possess— Your cheeks are wet with tears! And suddenly— A shining light sweeps over you As quickly—gone again; but you— Why you are all transfigured,—you’ve Been reborn again! A purpose firm And dauntless, and sure as day and night, Rests on your face and, dear, I know, You’ll face what’s coming unafraid— You’re ready for Life’s fight! •—L. Klay

S A new school Like a clean new life, Pure, undefiled by any mark, Unstained by time or wear. New buildings, Snow-white altars, whereon A white flame of hope undaunted, The flame of education, steadily burns. A new school, a new life, One renewed covenant between the hearts Of the parents and the child; One renewed covenant between God and man. —LaDonna Klay, ’34
