' THRU THE YEARS The Golden bells are ringing in Our year of jubilee, With fifty chapters finished in Our high school history, Let's turn the pages o'er today And browse along the years, And thrill to happy memories of Their joys and hopes and fearsg Of days of carefree gaiety, Fun loving girls and boys With thoughts on schemes of mis- chief bent, On spit-balls, pins and noise. The teachers, doubtless, wishing that We'd mind the golden rule, And apply ourselves to wisdom And the honor of the school. In musing mood we call to mind Our superintendents of the past, Who with unselfish true endeavors, O'er our lives their influence cast. Their faces pass before us As each well thumbed leaf we turn Face smiling, thoughtful, earnest, Faces grave, sedate and stern.

His rich tenor voice proclaiming UWe'll Throw Him Over the Fence.N

Philip Wetengel endeavored then A To teach us grace and truth, And drastic measures sometimes used To subdue the fractious youth, With thoughtless, young assurance, we Perchance were sometimes rude, And could we live those days again, W-e-l-l, I wonder--would we be good? Principal T. E. Savage came A Savage wise and kind-- Who proved his fine ability To train the youthful mind, Then followed A. E. Robinson Well liked by all was he, Who safely steered our high school ship, O'er an oftimes choppy sea.
