Fond Memories Way back in nineteen twenty-one, Our great career had just begun; For we were Freshmen, young and gay, Who flitted to and fro each day. Then came old nineteen twenty-two. Our efforts surely put us through. For Sophomores always make the grade. And glory in the triumph made. In nineteen twenty-three, “Hurray! We’re Juniors now,” you’d hear us say. Bach one had done his very best, And perseverance won the test. But now, in nineteen twenty-four. We’ve reached the goal, we’ve made the score. Farewell, old Class, who stood as one. Our play is o’er—Life’s work's begun. Kathryn Montgomery, ’24. Thru the Years When you come here as a Freshman, And you’re feelin’ kinda small, N someone says, “Are you a Senior?” And you’re not one—not at all; When you take a test in Caesar And your heart’s begun to quail, 'N Miss Moore hands back your paper And you find you didn’t fail; When you’ve asked her to “the” banquet. And she just lets you guess, N you’re sure that she’ll refuse you And then she tells you “yes ; When you’ve worked four years in high school And in everything you’ve passed, ’N it’s graduation evening And that diploma's yours at last; Oh boy! Ain’t it a grand ’n glorious feeling! G. M. T.. ’24.
