CLASS POEM Marcelyn Greene Tears bathe the smile today. For parting time is nigh. One lap of our way is o’er now, As life goes fleeting by. We’ve had our ups and downs; School days aren’t all just smiles. We’ve fought the battle, the victory won; Yet rough has been the way and long the miles. Striving for our conquered goals, We’ve made high and fair our creed; We will keep them, we must keep them, To rid this world of hatreds and greeds. We would not forget our friends. Nor our teachers who’ve guided us through; We’d like to say, Many thanks! To each and every one of you. To the spirit of dear ole Cannon High, We leave our cheers, our yells for you. We’d root for you until we die, For we know your defeats will be few. To classmates who take over when we re gone We leave the places to man our gun. You ' ll love it just as we do now, Those wonderful days of high school fun. Let us remember our parents too Who’ve helped in so many ways; I he sacrifices, the thoughts, the smiles you ' ve given Are due our highest praise. And so we bid good-day just now; Never will we say good-bye. We ll live with you in spirit forever, Lest we forget you. Cannon High. 3ltt Jflnttnrtam MRS. PAT GLASS Born — August 30. 1906 Died — March 14, 1945 J W. Cannon High School Faculty — 1942- 1945 The curtain of life hath descended, Upon one whom we all held dear. But still our hearts are lightened As a new life for her doth appear. Although her friendly smile, we cannot sec The memory still remains. Our thoughts of her will ever be As sunshine with no clouds of rain. Her eyes so clear and shining bright Are closed in peaceful slumber. No death can ever reach her there. Where she is with the angel’s number. Her laughing presence is gone now. But still to all we say. She was not said, but happy As the angel took her away. Away, away from this earth’s life. Her good will to spread no more. Away, away from war and strife. She’s waiting at Heaven ' s door. Her Life on earth is over. The path here, so well trod. Our dear and beloved teacher Is at rest with the world, and God.
