 ■ Our school days now have ended. And we'll all go on our way On a happy path of fortune In the not too far some day. We'11 have our tears, our sorrows, 3ut this we, too, shall bear, As have those other graduates Who fun .and hardship share. We'11 hold our heads as highly As the ones who went before Into the world of wonder Out through the school house door. We know it won't be easy; Worthwhile things never are; But we'll get through those hardships, We'll reach our highest star. We'll meet temptations grimly, And we shall do our part, And make this land of liberty A place within our heart. We're rather green at life, I guess. But we'll learn how things go. We'll learn to take things as they come, For there 11 be many a blow. And when our lives are over. And we no more shall roam. We hope to he remembered In our dear old Fulton home. —Meredith George

Jim thought awhile and then said that there was another from our class who was having her trouble with odors. Ho said that Phyllis Donnelly was now the director of the Fulton High school Band. Puzzle , I asked Jim what this had to do with odors, aromas, smells, etc. said that after those threw saxaphonists, Ruth Willson. Phyllis Donnelly, and Richard Griesinger had loft the Fulton Band, it gone frpm bad to terrible. Phyllis, hearing of this, immediately se- cured a position as band director. However, O ere Jim gagged), music that came from the band was still anything but pleasing to o nostrils. It was getting late so Jim and I decided to go back to tl where I was still supposed to be under observation by Doctor Borck. .Clinic,
