1927 THE YEAR BOOK 1927 Class Advisors To THE Class of 1927: The approach of the time that will sever the close relationship we have enjoyed for three } ' ears fills both of us with deep regret. The duties of advisors are arduous, but vou have made our work a source of pleasure. Our fellow teachers have often commented on the admirable traits possessed by you young people—you constitute an exceptional class. Reflecting on the preparations for our various class activities, at no time can we re¬ call when the spirit of your motto, “Til try, Sir”, has not been lived up to. Your interest, your co-operation and your good will, have accomplished results. Perhaps the simple words of Lord Andrew Gordon in the Senior Play express our senti¬ ments more aptly than any other words could, ‘dt has been well worth while knowing you and being one of the family,”—for after all that is what this class has been. No one could be prouder than we are that your Commence¬ ment is at hand and we shall watch with great interest your progress in Life. Select worthy objectives, work ever with your motto in mind, and whether your attainments be marked with distinction or mediocrity, you will have lived a full life. May happiness and prosperity be yours, and remember. Class of 1927, we shall always be cheering for you. Georgia Rlth R.xthburn Richard Aidax McCarthy IS

1927 THE YEAR BOOK 1927 COALMENCEMENT We are Seniors graduating Into what?—Oh Life! make known Our future’s happiness and hardships, Sorrows and goals to be won. God of centuries—of ages, Since Thou gave this world her birth All mankind has gone his way here. Every man has proved his worth. Life before us now is opening With its hopes of much to gain; May we ever keep the Highroad,— Drawn up as the sun, the rain. Life Thou great eternal Spirit, We who worship Thee must find Our own way out to light and service,— We cannot remain here—blind. Life! Oh Life, look kindly on us Who fare forth to taste Thy cup Like the birds, in fear, yet thrilling To Thy promise—bear us up! All receive it, overflowing. This great cup of Se rvice high. Some but sip it, some quaff deeply. Some, turn from it, and pass by. Our turn now to choose a pathway, Ours, whose tales are yet unsung. Ours, to greet Thee and salute Thee, Life! We love Thee—we are young! Marlboro High, we’ll ne’er forget Thee, Days with Thee were pleasant here. But we too must give our answer When Life whispers in our ear. So today from Thee we journey Each his way, yet bound to Thee By the ties of happy friendships Formed in four years spent with Thee. Our colors,—rose, what does that stand for? For a life that love makes bright. And silver, for the inside lining— Matters not how dark the night. Give Thy blessing, Alma hlater; As we answer Life’s great call With our motto, T will try Sir!” Help us! Guide us! Guard us all! Charlotte V. Drake 17
