Senior Class Poem We have crossed the rolling waters. And our four years course is run; O’er shoal and wave we’ve battled, But our voyage now is done. Our Captain has been patient, As we crossed the foaming sea And has kept both strong and steady Mighty, peerless “Thirty-Five.” Courage, strength, and zeal we’ve had, As with winds we’ve fought, We looked on high where our flag waved, With “Vineit qui superat.” Now the ship is safe at anchor And the gang-plank lower falls; We voyagers impatient w r ait To answer harbor calls. But hold! We fain would liuger, Yet just a little while, We’ll miss so much our comrades And our Captain’s friendly smile; The crew with strife untiring, The white-caps dancing play, ’Tis hard to leave them all behind— And yet we cannot stay. We may return in after years, And gaze across the deep; No Captain, Crew nor Friendly-ship Will make our pulses leap. No pa ' th will gleam upon the wave, ’Tis only in our soul. And memory like an uncrowned Prince Still reigns supreme with full control. —HARRY SMITH TUSH. iiiiiiiiimiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiimmiiimimiiiiiiiiMi Page eighteen

35 Hopewell High School Ten Years Ago and Now—Continued architectural scheme of the building. We are not looking into the future, we leave that to our class prophet, but just let us hope to see in the near future at the other end of the athletic field, a modern gymnasium with a swimming pool and tennis courts. If the hard times stay on perhaps we shall afford to have them. The flappers and cake-eaters are gone with their shanty school. We, the generation who have taken their place, live too close to yesterday to know what tomorrow will do about us, but we do know that our high school building with its clean archi¬ tectural lines, denoting simplicity and dignity will long rema n a noble monument of the period of Hopewell’s history which caused its beauty to be “Tempora mutantur et nos nutamur in Mis ' ’. —Kate Peterson.
