Countryman and also the Fellow who Dramatized Shakespeare. A School Paper A school paper is a great invention, The school gets all the fame, The printer all the money, The staff gets all the blame. We editors may toil and workg And work and toil some more: There's always some poor ? to say I've heard that joke before. Appreciation Some people in this good old town Appreciate our work and cares: And give us cuts and lines to print To advertise their wares. They do it to help along, And keep us free from debtg We never will forget them, Who gave these lines to set. And in the future, brothers, We'll not neglect the trust: But try to do to others As we'd have them do to us. Your Life Life is like unto a ilower 'I'hat, shrinking from the blasting storm Fearfully awaits the dreaded hour When all the world its death shall mourn: Or 'neath the Sun's inspiring rays, Shall lift all hearts in songs of praise. Just so by good and noble deeds, Your life a torch that all men leads. But, if wicked, sordid, life has been, Oblivion's prison shuts you in. So make the most of God's great gift Avoid the base and love the true And when the darkening shadows lift, There will be a high reward for you. -J. E. M 27 Senior's Song fTune of Prisoners Song? Oh I wish I were now a freshman To begin all over again. I would enter all sports and studies And be a success in the end.

Scenes and pleasures now gone by, In 1924 And listen Like a dream they hover o'er us And We beat Sh-h-h-h Calm and bright as noon-day sky, Then we know no shade or sorrow, Then our hearts were proud and free, May our lives and work tomorrow Best complete this harmony. There comes a time to everyone When skies are blue: When all things glow beneath the sun With rosy hue, When nature sings a merry lay And all the world looks glad and gay, While strewn with roses is the way We wander through. There comes a time, another time When skies are grayg When llfe's steep road is hard to climb To our dismayg When friendly hearts grow hard and cold, When joys once young grow pale and old, And life for us doth nothing hold Of hope's bright ray. Then harken! Le Roy's daughters, sons To wisdom's voice, Through sun and storm life's highway runs. We have no choice, Think, when your skies are clouded o'er How bright the world has been before, How bright t'wil1 surely be once more, In hope rejoice. Our Alma Mater's tender care And wisdom deep Has filled our hearts with courage rare To mount each steep, And in the coming strenuous years We'1l cast aside all foolish fearsf- And be life filled with smiles or tears Our faith we'll keep. -Francis Tully - ...l,.- 'Member Well, folks It won't be long now Before The Senior class Of '27 Will be making its mark In the world. if 4' 41 41 ak wk As we look back Over The many years We have been in high school It kinda Makes us laugh When we recall some Of the things That have happened. 42 :lr Sk if lk Maybe They didn't seem So funny Then but As a matter of fact They were more Or less Serious.
