■ . Class Tjjloem Upon a sea of hope, of clearest blue, Today a ship sets sail with gallant crew For port Success beyond their voyage lies And they would start the trip neath fairest skies. Yet ' ere they leave they gather near to tell To their dear school that parting word Farewell. Our senior class of nineteen thirty-five Are those young sailors who will ably strive On ocean far or water rough to guide Our sturdy craft against the singing tide. Lord grant that we may always face the gale With hearts of courage, hands that cannot fail. Of thee, Methuen High fond praise we sing To thy fine teaching ever will we cling Ne ' er shall we sever that strong tie which binds Us to the school where ivy twists and winds And as we sail away upon life ' s sea Methuen High, we ' ll harbor thoughts of thee. MARY CONSTANCE STAFFORD. Class jt . j» The time has come for us to leave The scenes of our past years, And though to part will make us sad We shall remember laughtei - - - tears. Three years have brought us work and play, And friendships that were true, And knowledge we have gained here Will aid us in the work we do. Our lives and thoughts were yours to mold, And now that we must part The true ideals you gave to us, Shall be engraved upon our heart. No more we ' ll meet in ivied walk To share the gifts we ' ve earned, But when we need encouragement To thee, High School, our thoughts will turn. BARBARA M. LIBBE V.
