Twenty-one CRUX H S K A N Senior Class History A few years ago, in the fall, We entered our dear C. H. S. Workers were we one and all, Determined to stand with the best. As Freshmen we were a bit fearful, Lest something we do might be wrong. But as time passed on we grew cheerful And soon all our sorrows were gone. The next year as Sophomores we entered, Working each day with a zest. Services many, we rendered Proving our worth to the rest. As Juniors we took active part In athletics and social affairs. Our class was known from the start As one which would always play square. As Seniors we kept on working With all the skill of our brains; Not once did we think of shirking, The tasks thru which knowledge was gained. Though from our school we must part, And far o’er the world we may go, Away down deep in our hearts, The love for our high school will grow. —ELLEN DUCKWORTH.
