OIla00 Tune “Homeward” w Classmates, v?e gather here To bid farewell; What future years may bring We cannot tell. Dear Alma Mater, we Pledge each our faith to thee; In our triumphs or defeats We’ll love thee still. Up life’s broad highway we’ll Go unafraid; Knowledge will guide us right O’er hill and glade. Tou, Alma Mater dear, Ha )e dispelled every fear; Passing 3)ears can ne er erase Our mem’ries of thee. May some new dawning find Us hand in hand. Making our voices heard Throughout the land. Touths of to-da}) are we; Soon leaders we shall be. Faithful to our motto fair, ' ‘Deeds, not words.” Charles Harold Mattson.
