We stand in a hallway, dark with night. Before, Ambition’s day glows bright; Behind, the lamp of Memory gleams, Flashing to us on radiant beams From friends, from teachers, from principal. The hopeful message; “Invincible Art thou in life. ’ ’ From the darkness then, The voice of the Doubter: “But What, or When, How, Where and Why?” Need we ask “When?” ’Tis now, today, not distant “then,” Far in the Future. The Present holds That force, that strength that surely moulds Our coming lives. So, now we need And find, that “What.” A noble deed A great success, a conquered fear, A followed hope, a grand career, An overwhelming of the wrong. Uplifting right that’s struggled long, Causing the weak to pause and say: ‘God bless the strength that’s used that way.” But “How?” For twelve short, joy-filled years We’ve studied on, o’er coming fears Doing our work with main and might, Trying our hardest to help the right. We shall go through life, as we’ve gone through school Controlling our lives by the Christian rule: As He to us, to others show The ' kindness that makes our own hearts glow. This rule enforce wherer’e by Fate Our fortunes fixed, we patient wait The slow, approaching gladsome day When earned success has come our way, As come it will. What else could hap To classmates reared in Emerson’s lap? And that is “Where.” Our school has taught, By many historical battles fought, By English essays studied long, By Latin phrases, throng on throng, To work, to play, to live, to love. And so, as God from Heaven above Watches the race, we will repay To our Alma Mater, each happy day We’ve spent with her. And that is “Why” The night is chased away by light: We look out now, with clearer sight To life which stretches far before, Out thru the school-room’s open door. Work we shall, with a mighty will; Some others’ days with blessings fill, Until, throughout our glad, free land, O People shall point with honoring hand To the High School pin, with eleven there Plain on the H. A glorious pair Success, and G. H. S. When life is done, • The battle o’er, the course full run, With peaceful hearts, will say with Paul; “We have kept the faith-God’s will be all.” Z. G. April 10, 1911. w
