WIA The S( ' (|ii( ' llt ' 11)14 Class Poem As the artist paints liis pictures. Anxious lest the sunset wane So we saw the chstant vision Of a l)eautilul .qnlden cliain. Each hnk must he of the finest. So we gathered tliem far and near And hrougiit the class of nineteen fourteen To our Clarion Normal tlear. We welded the links together With ties of friendship fine And each one toiled and labored Lest his fame might soon decline. Strive to be Worthy. we chose Our motto forever to be. That we have l)een most successful ' e think it easy to see. ' e Wdrked nn steadilv rising Always wishing the chain to be bright. As our standard for this we have chosen Our banner of (ireen and White. At last we were polished seniors And the brilliant chain was wrought With such exquisite workmanship T ' it for empress nr (|ueen we tlnuight. Alas, the chain must be broken, As into the world it goes. Let us hope no link may be tarnislied By influence of friends or foes. And niUN we leave behind us Best wishes from exerv link To our Alma Mater, with praises Of her we shall always think. So here ' s to our . ima Plater. To the fame and renown she shall win, Mav she keep on steadily rising May her glory never grow dim. Frances Thompson. Page twenlj-four
