-1 44' GALL MO Farewell ofthe Seniors Farewell to ye, old G. H. S. The school we love so well, The house that's built on happiness The spa1'k we ne 'er can quell. The pride of every loyal heart That's opened wide your door, NVhen from your bosom we depart Old We'll think of you more and more. Alma Mater we regret We must leave you so soon, But in our minds we 'll not forget Yon, when we reach life's noo11. For you are all that's good in life Yet 1 lVe Yet The But XY e That cherished our fond desire, we nmst enter the world of strife When this term doth expire. lerhaps we have not learned at school What the teachers stressed and taught, may have missed a certain rule For which wc were not caught. t'or all our faults to be, I'm sure Not one of us wants to leave, school that for ns holds a lure lVhioh our minds cannot deceive. now we leave with hearts grown sad To face our bitter fate, used to think that we'd be glad For ti111e to graduate. But times have changed for a better thing From what we have been told, So we wish we could forever remain ln the school we knew of old. -By Sweedman Lg i -f 1 W-f

GALL M0 Senior Class Historf ELL, folks, here's what was presented, as a Freshman class in the fall of '21, to our poor and unsuspecting Prof., who had done nothing to deserve such a fate. No wonder that his look of despair and constant mutterings became school tradititns, for we truly be- lieve that we were the most verdant Fresh ,ever to attempt to cross the mighty and fearful High School Desert. However, beauty is only skin deep, and the record that these thirty-one aspiring youngsters set is one that we are proud of and which we hope will serve as an example to the floundering Freshie just entering the struggle. Out of our small band there rose mighty warriors of the gridiron, men whose valor has added many laurels to the football record of the school. Many of these battles have chipped for themselves a niche in the Hall of Fame of our school as an example to those who follow us on our pilgrimage to the Mecca of Higher Education. There also rose from our midst, masters of the art of oratory, whose smooth flowing speech and flowery language have guided many a judge 's vote into the proper channel for a Gallatin victory. These. too, have left a standard for those who are fortunate enough to take the trail by the Gallatin landmark, to strive to maintain, and We sin- cerely hope that it will be upheld, although we know that it will be a gigantic task. lt was also our doughty band who originated the idea of staging that much ltoked for event, the Junior Carnival. We entered this fray with a do-or-die spirit and when the smoke cleared away we were one hundred a11d fifty dollars ahead. It was with this hard earned cash that the momentous occasion, the Junior-Senior banquet, was made possible, and unforgettable. Oh! the banquet that those lucky Seniors received. Croesus, with all his wealth, could not have conceived sueh an affair as that. VVe don't think it will be forgotten for years to come. In fact, we don 't see how it could be forgotten. And now as dignified Seniors, we are placidly smiling down on those fresh eager youngsters who so smilingly are entering upon those same battles, which we so determinedly faced, and silently wondering if they will ever quite reach that pinnacle of glory on which we are now so comfortably and contentedly seated. Wie hope that they do, but as before, we don 't see how they can. .m m
