THE JUNIOR LIFE 15 Glory in the Highest I have seen the mighty cities, The stately ships at sea, And the grandeur of the artist Of high nobility, I have seen some great inventions, And some inventors, too; Have seen some grand old worlds of art, And sailed the ocean’s blue. But the grandest piece of beauty Seen by a mortal eye Is the sunset on the mountains, The glory of the sl{y. —Bill Anderson. • • Rain Here comes the rain. Dancing on the window pane, All the drops loof{ the same, See the rain I Watering all the plants and flowers, Seeping into nool(s and bowers, Malting pleasant little showers, See the rain I It fills the air with little drops, Will it never, never, stop? Waters all the farmer's crops, See the rain! To maf(e the flowers a pretty sight, To mal{e the farmer's crops grow right, To give health and joy so bright, God sends rain! —Betty Lou Neese. The Aeroplane Up in the sl(y flying so high Soars a great bird O'er the city. With its giant wings It zooms and sings With a monotone For its ditty. —Kathryn Swedenborg, 9A.

14 T HE JUNIOR LIFE God to Mortals Hast thou but looked on a distant star, Or the spreading ocean, wide, afar, And wonder clutched your heart? Hast thou but seen the level land. And wondered e’en how God's own hand Could from his heavens part? Hast thou but wondered how or why The deep, fathomless sea or sl(y Could be so ruled by One? Hast thou but hoped that each mortal's soul At eve of life has reached its goal, And a new life begun? Hast thou the trust in sorrow and pain In Gods deliverance to say again, T believe, though said alone? Hast thou the faith in life and death To trust in God at thy last breath? Then thou art of his own. —Richard Turcott. Farewell to Bryant We are soon to leave this place, Our Bryant Junior High, And we must leave it all behind When we bid it good-bye. For three long years we here have worked And passed from grade to grade, But we will not so soon forget The friends we here have made. And when we lool{ bac!{ to the past When we are on in years, We may remember Bryant High, Our joys there and our tears. —Harvey Carlson.
