Vice-President Secretary- T reasurer To Nineteen Twenty-Six Just a word to greet you, Just a wish to reach you, Just a while to see you — Seniors attending. Some things we have had together, Some times we’ve been had together, More often we’ve been glad together Than ever we’ve been sad together, To Seniors ascending. Like a hill-climbing Ford, We started in low, Papooses — you know The Freshman’s estate Of being in thrall. In line with our rank We got many a spank To efface the effrontery Of knowing it all. But the time soon sped ; We soon got ahead In Sophomoric wisdom and lore; We repaid in kind To new Fresh behind The gifts of those gone before. With Junior years Came Junior ways; Somewhat jaunty still, Not yet down fool’s hill ; But doubtless on our way, Cutting wisdom teeth today, Not so carefree as of old ; Not so heart-free, truth were told. Seniors at last, we stand on the crest; Surviving those others We might have hailed brothers, Had they managed to finish the climb. We are the eldest of the Choctaws, And on the eve of going Here we have learned the best; Hereafter we must live the rest; According to our knowing; A grit to bear; A grin to wear And ground for growing. 30
