Although we know that you ean never equal the high stand- ard of success attained us, we hope, at least, that in the com- ing year a)U may do something to redeem your past record ; and now, as we wish to leave no enemies behind us in the old school, shake hands, ’06, and forget the past. 1907 For 3 ou, Nineteen Hundred and Seven, we have nothing but best hopes and encouragement for your future.

CLASS SONG. I'arewoll to our iVicMids licre to-ni lit we iiiiist say, And fortli on onr wa v we nuist Hilt the joys we have liad in tlie days that are ])ast Will ‘i ive pleasure through life here below; And the future is pointing with jiroinising hand, Alluring ns all on onr way, Assuring ns now that sneeess we’ll attain If we’re true to the tasks of each day. We shall miss the true friends that we’re leaving to-night. We shall miss the glad days past and gone. But we’ll keej) ever with us the lessons here learned. And rejoice as we still journey on. Ma ' we e’er to onr motto and colors be true, For the blue and the white may we strive; Let no stain ever blot the fair name of the class Of nineteen hundred and five. And now a farewell to onr friends and onr school. They bid us Godspeed this glad day; We leave in return onr best wishes and hopes For success as the pass on their way; And whenever we meet on earth’s rugged path, As we bravely toil up life’s steep hill, May memory cause us to reach out our hand, And greet them with hearty good-will. 28

’07, to keep down the uppishness of the Class of lOOG, and to lead the innoeent I'reslnnen away from the paths of wiekedness pursued by that elass. Xow that we are gone, upon your shoul- ders must rest the task of upholding the honor of the sehool. Remember that the Class of ’05 is watehing your progress with an anxious eye, and with their suceess as a goal before you, strive on, ’07, and make a name for 3'ourself in the history of the sehool. 1908 We have just a word to say to you. Nineteen Hundred and Eight. Take not the adviee of the Class of ’06, unless you wish to work your ruin. E ollow, rather, that of ’07, which is striv- ing for 3'our welfare. Remember that little children should be seen and not heard, and do not, like ’06, try to gain attention bv ]3ublishing a second Flapper, or some other foolish deed. Mav 3'ou ]3rofit b ' this advice from the renowned and illustrious Class of Nineteen Hundred and Five. 30
