We are barging out upon careers, That will perhaps in our future years Lead straight up the ladder of success. This we ll attribute to D. H. S. Our instructors, trustworthy, loyal, and true, Have been a great factor in seeing us through. We are passing into night, so to speak, In search of that goal which all of us seek. We have acauired a sense of righteousness, And this well attribute to D. H. S. Our class, we hope, has done its task, That's enough, what more could you ask? We hope that we have helped the cause. As our exit so closely draws. Have we been of some usefulness During our term in D. H. S.? FRANK MOORE CLASS SONG As we enter life's broad highway, And leave behind us our high school days, Ne’er shall we forget our training. Its teachings guide us in our ways. Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Ever we’ll be true, And as life’s long paths we travel, We ll remember you. As on the threshold we shall pause E’er we shall decry, Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, Fame that ne’er will die. Words and Music by ALBERT LENHART Page Twenty-six
