I-.1 w ZZZI History of the Class of ’15 Past, Present and Fixture® When first we sought this seat of learning We were Freshmen, young and green, Even then, in those Dark Ages, Promise in our class was seen. One year later, passing swiftly Found us cheerful Sophomores bold, Caring naught for wit nor wisdom, Pausing not for heat nor cold. Once more the earth revolved its course, We were Juniors tried and true, Turning out the best of Year Books We had lots of work to do. All too soon, now, we are Seniors, For another year is past, We are Seniors, sober-minded, For we know it is our last. O, you Seniors! pause and think, then, Of the future tasks to do. Soon the school bell’s cheerful ringing Will mean nothing more to you. By ROBERT DENNIS. - - : --- ‘ ' Looking far into the future When, of years, have passed a score, Where are they, our long lost comrades? Scattered wide, the whole world o’er. From the icy polar regions To the tropic southern skies, They have passed in wild confusion, Living out their destined lives. In the struggle for existence Some of us have made a name, They are placed, along with others, High upon the rolls of fame. Others, of us, not so brilliant Must be content with lesser praise; But we’re better for the memory Of those happy, bygone days. We can only do our duty As the numbered years roll on; As the melting snow in springtime. E’er we knew it, we are gone.
