Senior Poem 'AC To the Senior Class of Marshall High, Has come the sad moment of saying good-bye To our dear school and the friends we know. NVe shall not forget them as outward we go. And now, as we think of our teachers so dear, VVe regret that our closing days are here. But though school days are over at last, We shall still hold to ties of the 'past- The ties of friendship, and loyalty, too, The bonds of the old. the love of the new. For the experiences we have each day. Dear God. make us equal to them we pray. And our Senior boys who have gone far away To fight for freedom for many a day, May these brave lads of our class of '44 Come back to us safely when this war is o'er. And when at last the struggle shall cease, May we be wise in keeping the peace, And do our part in every way To make the world better day by day. FRANCES BEACH
