INTRODUCTION TO THE LITERARY SECTION The Literary Section is a most interesting and important division of our Year Book, as it is represented by every Grade in the school. A contest was organized to encourage the pupils, and titles for the stories and poems were suggested to give the students ideas for the basis on which to write. I would like to thank especially those students who contributed to the contest and made our section a success. The stories and poems on the following pages were written by you ----- so that we all can enjoy them. Donna Creedon. JUNIOR HIGH POETRY WINNER - Grades 7, 8 9. THE COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT The country I would like to visit Is the beautiful country of France, Where everything is so exquisite And people sing and dance. The beautiful capital stands so tall With its high Cathedral towers, The great enchanting St. Paul With its courtyards full of flowers. Its gay little streets so crowded by day, So dim and romantic at night Where happy children run and play Oh, what a heart-warming sight. The country side is so warm and green With rivers running wild, And forests of greenwood to be seen Some standing and some piled. This country has seen many a war And been destroyed for many a mile, So wickedly bombed and bloodily torn But still has come back with a smile. I long to be there, so happy and free So full of song and of dance, I long to be there so I may see The beautiful country of France. John Skoog -- Room 17. 31
