LAUREL ,k A SENIOR SAYS I went to high school four years To peek at knowledge. This is a free country-I didn't have to go But I did. What I saw of Knowledge Was not from books alone. I saw Friendship, with its weapons concealed- So much to see. I saw Cheating, with its fruitless branchesg I saw Mistake, with its book of new leaves: Saw Love bourgeon from Hate- Not Logic, but Life. I learned to look for Sincerity, with no strings attached 3 Humor, no emptiness in its laugh- Cheer wears well. I found Good and Bad, Right and Wrong Side by side-everywhere, they were Racing neck and neck toward me. I had to choose. The distance I have come Has been short- too short: Would that I had these four years back- But I haven't. Mary Pinkham '44 5
