FAREWELL CLASSMATES ★ Farewell, dear old M. H. S. We’ll soon be leaving you. We’ve worn your colors for years, And have always served you true. ‘Tis our wish while we are parting To give thanks and praise to all, And leave our sincere good wishes To our schoolmates in these halls. Although we are very excited We sometimes hide a tear, For deep within our hearts Lie memories sweet and dear. We’ll recall in future memories All our fun, work, and play, M. H. S. will remain with us A cheerful dream while on our way. We know you wish us luck We’ll certainly need it too; And we wish the best of everything Dear M. H. S. for you. So farewell, dear M. H. S. ‘Tis our fate that we must part, But you’ll always be the nearest And dearest to each heart. Hattie Wooddell My classmates—gosh I like them all Tho’ some are short and some are tall Some are lean and some are fat Naturally they can’t help that. I don’t judge folks by how they look Neither by rules of hook or crook A friendly word, a pleasant smile, Is my gauge of things worth while. A helping hand a willing heart A true desire to do one’s part My classmates have the friendly touch Of real folks—that mean so much To me, to you, to everyone, Makes school life pleasant—lots of fun. Lucy Thompson HELP Dear fellow students hear my plea Poetry doesn’t make sense for me I know that cat will rhyme with rat But this doesn’t seem to rhyme with that. My efforts all end in a mess I find myself in great distress. Yet where there’s life there’s hope they say, So I’ll do better some other day. With your help and sympathy A greater poet someday I’ll be. I’m out of rhyme that means I’m through. Good gosh—I hope this poem will do. Christine Rimel A DREAM COME TRUE Greenbank came down to Marlinton, to throw us for a loss. By the time the second play had ended, they knew who was boss “Beaky” Buzzard carried the ball, right down to the goal Tom Morrison then scooted across, he was hardly touched by a soul. The next time Marlinton got the ball, it was just about the same With the fancy running of Jim and “Beak,” it was a 12-0 game. But Greenbank came back with a gleam in their eye They were good for plenty more. Arbogast went through the line, for their first and only score Marlinton came back in the second quarter, like a bunch of wild, woolly boars With the help of everyone on the team, a touchdown was made by Jim Moore. The second half went scoreless and Greenbank was plenty sore, They tried and tried but it was all in vain, they couldn’t make a score. The Greenbank boys were plenty sad, but there was nothing they could do. They had to take it in their stride, altho’ they were very blue Everyone was going wild, the kids were very glad. And you should have seen John Hayslett, why he pert-nere went mad. Well I’d better quit, I’m getting hoarse and I’m sorry Greenbank’s blue, But this is what I’ve been trying to say, its nothing but “A Dream Come True.” Gerald Gordon
