To you who are the Spirit. . There ' s a fiber threaded through the fabric of our days at Senior High . . . To the pattern and the texture it gives a permanence. To the color and design it lends a vivid gleam. It gives us strength ive need to go that second mile; Its force will hind us altvays, though we part. There ' s a flame that lights the lustreless gloom of icork and worry . . . On tiresome chores of homework it sheds its gloiv. To aching weariness of football practice it brings its cheering lift; Through hours of toil to meet a deadline, or polish a speech It lends a s ark of inspiration. It spreads its light to banish the shadows of dissension, To teach us how to help and how to share. There ' s a song that spreads its melody through all the ugly noise . . . It brings its harmony to discords of clashing wills; Above the whine of excuses there flows its lilting note; Sounds of discouragement and discontent are lost in its lovely tune. It sings to give our march a rhythm and a lilt, To keep us all in step along the way. And so . . . to this Spirit of Senior High — the fiber, the thread, the song — and to those who cherish it: Every member of its faculty and student body, We dedicate this 1955 WHIRLIGIG. 6
