M H S THE CLASS POEM As we, the class of Forty-nine, march down the well-worn walk. Blinking tears and stifling sighs, our thoughts too deep for talk. We glance at friends, both warm and true, we never more shall see. Whispering a silent Thank you for our years of joy with thee. The teachers, too. have earned our thanks from deep within our heart. The door of life is opening wide; today we must depart. Our echoing steps are far behind; we ' ve reached the branching ways. One to joy, another wealth, a third to pride and praise. We ' ll each take one straight to the end with wisdom as our guide, And as we strive to reach our goal, by our motto we ' ll abide. He conquers who has conquered self is our determined cry. With shining faith and hopeful hearts we leave you, dear Searles High. —CHRISTINA PALESE
