Senior Class Sons This year, we will set apart Something to keep, down deep in your hearts, ' This year, tho it means many tears. Will he a token of our past memories. CHORUS To say good-bye is now our problem, For our high school days are o ' er. For we are leaving dear Ole Bassett High, The school that is so dear. We want to leave a real good name to all. To the Junior Class to come We hope that they will do the same good things, And think of where they ' re from. As we say adieu to the Junior Class, OJ the dear Ole Bassett High. We have worked these years to accomplish, Success for our future years , So it ' s time to tell you all good-by. Teachers, Juniors, friends and all. So beware of the hearts of the Junior Class, And io all of you good-by. Evelyn Snead Senior Class Deem Here, standing on the threshold. Thinking of the future and the past; We remember the rush as the bell tolled. And we scrambled roughly into class. We had our quarrels and our scraps, But soon all were forgotten and gone; We dislike to think of the sorrows and mishaps Of those who died, left or stayed on. Forgetting the sorrow, the joy and the past, Into the future in awe and reverence we gaze; Wondering what fate has in store for the mass As we look through the sun ' s bright rays. To our teachers who have been patient and kind. We wish to pay our respects; They have tried hard to train our minds, And now much of us they expect. To our parents our voices we raise. They were always sympathetic and true. To you we owe much praise! To you great honor is due 1 We stand at the turning of the ways. We shall do our very best In every walk our debts to pay To dear old B. II. S. Johnnie Ausburne
