The excellent bands which you present to the public have made us at Chilton High proud. We. the students in these bands, are able to play solos as well as concert music, just because you had the patience and desire to instruct us.

AT THE CROSSROADS You to the left, and I to the right, For the ways of man must sever— And it well may be for a day and a night, And it well may be forever. But whether we meet or whether we part (For our ways are past our knowing), A pledge from the heart to its fellow heart On the ways we all are going! Here’s luck! For we know not where we are going. With a steady swing and an open brow We have tramped the ways together. But we’re clasping hands at the crossroads now In the Fiend’s own night for weather; And whether we bleed or whether we smile In the leagues that lie before us, The ways of life are many a mile And the dark of fate is o’er us. Here’s luck! And a cheer for the dark before us! You to the left and I to the right, For the ways of men must sever, And it well may be for a day and a night And it well may be forever! But whether we live or whether we die (For the end is past our knowing), Here’s two frank hearts and the open sky, Be a fair or an ill wind blowing! Here’s luck! In the teeth of all winds blowing. — Richard Hovey
