LA STORIA 1921 -,- Cr s cnt Hlgh School Semor Class Prophecy Farewells have been sand diplomas recelved, The Seniors are Senlors no more Our s hool Ilfe IS over ln old C H S We pass through the open door With a last eager glance at th chool hnus whnch stands In sol tude lonely and gray The school house which harbored vs through the year Our debt we an never repay A moment I linger, behind all the rest, In the great, empty, echoing hall sadness pervades the once gay atmosphere And a loneliness hangs over all soft lxttle chuckle now falls on my ear WI-at ls that? That flatter of red? And those two great round eyes what on earth can lt be'7 My haxr rlses up on my head' m the Elf of Tomorrow, a squeaky voice says, Would you Ike all your futures co know Tls the w sh of most Seniors, when the year rolls around, You say Yes7 Very well let us go A flash and the school house no more n be seen, We rush through the Infinite, boundless, b u spa e, And I gasp for my breath as we g The vell of the future IS rent, and I see, As the mlst fades away from my eyes, The sky scraper city we know as New York, And I gasp agaln with surpr se We hasten along with the hurrying rowd Through streets that are teem n with Ilfe, Where men dally fight for a morsel of bread, Through hustle, and bustle, and strnfe Tlll we come to a sign on a door and I read L Waller, and Lawyer below A moment I wonder and puzzle, and thunk That name I am sure I should know Thcn I follow my queer lttle Fund through the street, To an office well furnished, and neat, Where an elderly man bends over a desk At a wlndow, close by the street He turns quickly round as we cnter the door, Then he rxses, rubb ng his hands, Wxth a lawyer lxke smxle, he offers a chair, And I note hlm well as he stands, A thm, gray mustache, and a sharp, pomted nose And a don t worry well to do air By Luclle Langston A paxr of brown eves that are brlght and alert And a crop of short, xron gl ay han' ls there any way, Ma am, I can serve you today'7 Says the lawyer, batt nv an eye And I recognize Lester our old president But before I can make a reply The man dlsappears, and the walls fade away A d my Pulde whispers That s enough there, Ill show you another We rush on agaln Tull the wlnd wh stles loud through my ha r We slacken our speed and there falls on my ear, Sweet music as soft as a dream This IS Parad se sure, or else Faxryland o lovely the music does seem As we sunk toward the earth, the music grows clear A d I hear a baby s soft cry Thcre are vol es of rhlldr n that sing as they play, And a mother s low crooned lcllabye I see a wxde hearth and b slde lt there slts A woman, young looking, and fa r, The flrellglat hxnes on a motherly fac With 1ts frame of soft, yellow haxr Around her are grouped three small cherub ms Ea h a curly halred mxnxature Of Nellxe herself for I know It IS she But the scene fades away to a blur The cottage walls w den I see a grand hall Where a long and wlde table IS set Wlth cut glass and sxlver that sparkle and shlne, And I know nt must be a banquet But who as that dlgnxfled man at the hea There' omcone has spoken hls nam Mr Sunderland ar 7 Why no, can t be' But, yes' It I5 surely the same' A murmur 'DFISES and onfused wh sperlngs The Preszd nt s going to speak President' Carl' Of what may I ask Tlce U S s ys my gulde, wth 1 squeak Bzt the ba qxet hall fades, and I see ln nts place, A fvreat stage w th foot llghts aglow From behmd the scenes a sweet smger appears And the vast crowd sxts breathless, below Do you recogn ze her? says my guide with a grm, She has made a hugh mark lh the world Oh xt s Zella ' I cry, then I feel a sharp tug And over the rrreat stage we are whn-led Davmavmumfamcvmavmuiv-miriam:-mamevzrmmnmamfriammmmmammmm-mevmfmmvmmmmm moo .I .. , - .. 1. 4. 1. so . . . . . . 4. . 4. 1. . . 4. 1. 4. . . 1.30 .1-of .g.. ,, ..-..- C 5 , l . l , . . l 0 - I i ' l ' i . : , - - -. .
