CLASS PGEM l l l The Spirit of '42 By Iosephine Williams Where for us does our future lie? This today is the universal cry of youth. A dreary question, ending with a sigh, Whose answer is shrouded by grim shadows, Hovering like vultures in a blood-red sky. Is there no light? Is there no shining truth by which we can Be guided onward? No longer any right? Or wrong? Must we travel blind, ln a world o'er-shadowed by this blight? Youth stands still for a moment in wonder. But not for long. There is one shining truth. And must we ponder Over what it is? Is it not plain? Are we our lives about to squander? No! And no again, I say. Our forbears fought and died To give us life, this life we live today. This daily happiness that we enjoy while Winding along a path both sad and gay. Behold the lad who climbs to reach his goal. Behold the lass with earnest eyes-eyes not disillusioned By a government without a soul. This lad, you say, but can he reach that end Toward which he strives? On some high knoll This lad-alone or with the sweet-eyed lass perchance- Will look back on this horror, sad-eyed but with faith in things to come Liberty-the right to sing and dance, The right to love, and laugh, and worship God- Liberty, who cannot, must not die, but reign free-lance. 23

1 CLASS ODE By Marilyn Lays America, tomorrow we are thine, And in our hands We bear A torch to light the dark and treacherous path As on our Way We fare. From happy halls of freedom now We march To Win in ev'ry strife, And seek at last a great and glorious home Beyond the trail of life. lt was our gladsome days together here That fitted us to be The fervent builders of a mighty land, To keep it ever free. So climbing, ever climbing, on we go, And youth shall triumph still, For school has taught us fellowship and love And truth and steadfast will. 25
