Seniors of nineteen-twenty, The work we’ve attempted is nearly done ; Strive onward, get the best Which is not gained by rest; By labors hard and many pains Can only come your gains. Emulate others, ’t is no disgrace ; Think of the progress now made, Shall we stop, or allow it to fade? Such act of imprudence is wrong; Labor on, venture out, be strong; Surrend’ring now means delay In the future there’s a brighter day. In this great world of ours Utilize each day’s hours, For life is brief and insecure, So let us, then, the best procure. We, the people of the colored race, Classmates, I wish you all good luck Which lies embosomed in progress; Plunge into it, do your best. And He we trust will do the rest. EDNA L. TURNER.
