SCHOOL DAZEH Let's just forget the future Until at length, there came a day And all it can forecast, When memories were sad. And every trait reiterate Remember when a whistle blew? Y0u've cherished in the past.- Cr, you had been replaced- How mother took you to the school And with it, why of course you knew And bade you sweet adieu Your last play had been traced.- How teacher used the golden rule But years have changed your mental thought, To teach you two and two. As it did change your size, Remember what you used to say? And with the things that you've been taught In sweetest eulogies, At length you realize.- A Senior, you would be some day- No matter what one's life may be To do just as you please. Exempt, perhaps, the fool, The teams we used to play And you will say to all some day, And all the fun we had- 'LI miss that dear old school. -WALTER SHOE. -xxxxxxx:,:1:1:::::..::::::::::: 1732-193,2..........
