CLASS S0 GS OUR TRIBUTE Tune-Londonderry Air 1Danny Boyj Words by June McMil1en Come, Seniors, All, We'll laud our Alma Matter, Our high school days have now come to an end, In '43 our caps and gowns we're donning, To show the world, our lessons we have learned. Our colors bright of blue and gold are flying, High, high above the common walks of life: They challenge us to live and love more nobly- Oh, teachers dear, a tribute true, we pay to you. Dear Fellow-students, as we now are leaving, Our hearts and hands we all extend to you: Follow the trail where we are proudly leading, Let's seek the best of Character in life, And Culture, too, will be our fond ambition, Citizenship, our country's greatest need-- For these we'll strive and always we'll remember Montgomery-Clinton, the source of our ideals. FORWARD, SENIGRS Tune- Onward Christian Soldiers Words by Helen Louise Herman For the past twelve years We've attended schoolg We have learned our lessons And the Golden Ruleg We have worked together, Played together, toog With our graduation day So near, we're sad, 'tis true. Chorus- Forward then, all seniors! This our battle hymn- Don't forget our motto: We are out to win! Freshmen, sophomores, juniors We are fond of youg We value your friendship- Loyal, strong and true. Though we roam o'er all the world, This one thing we know- We'll never forget you, no matter Where we go. Class of Nineteen Forty-three Is beginning lifeg We are well prepared For the coming strife. We thank all the members of Our dear faculty For the things they've Taught us of freedom and liberty. FAREWELL With expectant faces lifted As into the world We go, Our hearts beat fasi and livelyg And we all too sadly Feel the pain of parting from you, Our dear Montgomery-Clinton School. The members of the Class of '43 Will pledge their hearts and souls And will defend their standards Till they have reached their goals, They vow to do or die for thee, Their dear Montgomery-Clinton School. -Shirley Mincemoyer Tw euty-tw 0

ir if CLASS PRCJPHECY if 'Ir This perhaps not so brilliant letter was written to Lieutenant Paul Shrey of the United States Occupational Army in Germany. It isnlt the best or the most nearly correct message you have ever read, but to some- one away from home it gave those newsy little bits of information that were longed for. Between the lines Paul could read that the world was at last getting back to normal again. Please do not judge this letter according to the standards of correct English, but merely by the lift it would give to a tired, home-sick man. Montgomery, Pa. May 21, 1958 Lieutenant Paul Shrey Berlin, Germany Dear Paul, 1Well, soldier, you will soon be coming home again, but youlll never recognize the p ace. Why, just the other day I ran into Mrs. John Waltman. She was the former June McMillen, and, Paul-you will never believe this, but she has five children. At least that is all I counted at one time, but then I saw a couple more come up to her soon after I left, and I presume they were hers, too. They were very cute and well behaved, but-well-I could just hardly believe my eyes. Her husband, John, is the chief caretaker of the Susquehanna Heights Cemetery , and as I understand, has a thriving business. I must also tell you of the engagement of Maxine Eck to Harold Opp, but you'll re- call that they always were wild about each other, so that isn't really any surprise. Her diamond is as large as a goose egg. We received a letter recently from Margery Pauling, who is at the head of the Secretarial Department at Juniata College, and tells us that Kathryn Baker, head of the Homemaking Department, will soon be transferred to a larger college. I attended a symphony concert last Friday night. It was really the most wonderful I have heard in a long time. Dunning Stamets was the director. He was so impressive and dignified. The symphony entitled The Barrel House Blue Room was written by Eugene Beeber. He always did have an ear for music, and at last he is receiving the recognition he deserves for his great talent. We have heard recently that Zena Widell has gone back to New York and is trying to perform her household duties, which is a difficult task when five children are involved. Lloyd Miller, the big boss of the American Store, and Shirley Temple, the cashier, have been seen at the Stork Club doing the rumba. Imagine that! How surprised we were to read of Byron Kilmer's heroism in a naval battle in the Twenty-four
