'S is la PAGE 108 Toast to Seniors Here's to the Seniors, so happy, Here's to the Seniors, so gay, Here's to the Seniors, so faithful, In classes, in work and in play. May their lives be full of endeavor, May their minds be full of the right, May their hearts be full of the Joyousness, That comes in obeying The Light . Here's to the Seniors, let each one Be helpful in the work that they choose, Be game, be honest, be Willing If even the battle they lose. EVELYN TRUESDALE It's Not So Much It's not so much the word we say, It depends on how we say it. It's not so much the game we play, It depends on how we play it. It's not so much the action kind, As the motive that's be-hind it. It's not so much the fault we find, It depends on how we find it. Many Seem to Be Trying -To be stylish instead of beautiful. -To be clever instead of dependable. -To be sophisticated instead of Wise. -To be theological instead of religious. -To be hilarious instead of happy. -To be modern instead of modest. -To be lively instead of lovely.
