® O 1 1 wr -O- With apologies to M. E. Sanders. Days, months and years are gliding. Like mystic dreams, away, And down life’s varied pathway Their lights and shadows play; And, often on the present, Reflected light will fall. Sometimes, perhaps, a shadow Comes darkly over all O, time ! still hasten onward, Unlieed our smiles or tears. And gather in thy chariot Thy burden of the years. And with the scythe, great reaper. Reap all thy trcasuies here, Though every sheaf thou bindest Is dewed with many a tear. We how to thy stern mandate. Acknowledging thy sway— Powerless alike to fetter, Or cause thy wheel to stay. For onward, ever onward, The years their way pursue. And season after season Still passes from our view. We tread the path before us. Impatient oft to raise The veil that hides the future From erring mortal’s gaze. We cannot see the trials Around the paths we’ll try. Nor catch the hours of pleasure That for us there may iie.

3-1 ini] ScI]a0 I Souq (Tune : One Flag We Follow.) The school we love the best, is German Township High, And far above the rest her flag shall always fly. We’ll guard her emblem well, that none may float ahead Of Alma Mater’s banner fair, the Black and Red. CHORUS Hail to the Alma Mater that we love, And love her well, as each can tell. Hail to the flag that floats above them all. The Black and Red must float ahead. Hail to the motto that we love the best, “Scienta potestas est,” Wave Red and Black forever. Falter may you never, Hear old German Township High ! O 1 Black and Red we love thy fafr, fair folds. A treasure that each son and daughter sac red holds. Then proudly wave as years go fleeting by The emblem of our dear old German Township High. Thy praises we will sing, O! Alma Mater d°ar. Our songs and cheers shall ring for yen from year to year The lessons we have learned, in life shall he our guide, And may wre all at duty’s call turn hack w.th pride. —J. B. Sheetz.
