the record. ‘Just pause long enough to take a glance at the efficient work done by our Commercial classes. And our Girls’ Glee Club has attracted considerable attention. “‘The selecting of a class ring, choosing the class motto, colors, and flower, and voting on the perplexing and always important question of having uniforms or dresses for graduation; having pictures taken for the Flambeau; deciding on invitations; and countless other details con nected with graduating kept the Seniors busy. This work was a new experience since it was a variety of work not found in their earlier years. “This is by tar the largest class that ever graduated from M. H. S. and each member, separately, and the entire class collectively in one voice accord their sincere gratitude to their many teachers, their prin- cipal and their superintendents for the kindness and assistance rendered by them.’’ CLOSING DAYS Last days bring vain imagining To graduates like you, That work is done, the race is run, And pleasure falls like dew. You feel, no doubt you’re ‘‘ going out’’; In fact, you’re ‘‘going in’’; Exams though past are not the last, The real tests now begin. Without mistake you hope to make Success of Future’s Strife; ‘«As twigs are bent so trees are lent,’’ Long schoolday-years mould life. Perhaps you think you now may drink The cup of plenty’s store; But you will find Time’s millwheels grind From each, a sweat of gore. I’m sure you’ll feel begirt with steel With sheepskin in your hand; But you must learn from Failure’s urn The engine’s need of sand. Enclosed around with battle ground, Crusaders you must be, And campaign strong against the wrong To lift humanity. Make your strong fight for what is right, For nation and for state, Ere night-time comes when Death’s grim drums Announce, ‘‘ ’Tis now too late.’’ With armor bright fear not the fight, Though blood may stain the sod; You’ll win the palm, find peace and calm For your Country and your God.
