Class Sumy O there is a twilight around us. The evening of parting is nigh; And cords that materially bound us We sever now with a sad sigh. But still in our spirits there’ll linger, A mem’ry our life’s walk to bless, And joy will point backward her finger To hours spent in old G. H. S. Our past we have spent here together, Our future we none can foretell; Through sunshine and shadowy weather Careers have been founded full well. And as out through world-walks we wander, This sentiment we’ll e’er confess: As time passes hearts will grow fonder Toward those at our dear G. H. S. Per Aspera we have encountered, Ad Astra we yet must attain; And heights of achievement unmounted Rise up in a mass on life’s plain. But, oh, how our days here have aided In breaking down Ignorance ' s bars! How patiently we’ve been persuaded Through difficulties to the stars! W. C. D. K. Page sixteen
