Page Ten T H E S U N I) I A L Montri-at Normal School GRADUATION By Virginia Yates, Class Poet I stood beside the closed door, 'flu key was in niv hand. And lingered on the threshhold floor, 'Ere I stepped from the old land. My eyes dwelt lovingly on the sight Of memories and friendship rare. My soul's joys cast a radiant light, And life seemed happy and fair. Yet in the golden past were Hecks of shade. Some were the shadows of grief and tears. Some were the scars of mistakes I had made, And some were the darkness of mists of my fears. I saw behind me my many deeds, The tasks I had started and never done. The garden I had toiled in, plenteous with weeds. The tangled threads of some work just begun. Troubled. I pushed against the door. And prayed as I fitted the key, “Dear Lord, may I profit by the years before, And go forth to the new, trusting Thee.” CLASS HISTORY SENIOR HIGH CLASS OF 1934 In the fall of 1932, about ten eager travelers started on a quest. From many parts of the country they had gathered here at .Montreat to start a pilgrimage up the narrow road of knowledge. Ann Owens, Edna McKinnon and Blanche Hall are the three graduating who began here in their Freshman year, because, as was to be expected, some, for various reasons, dropped by the wayside. With one last struggle, we landed at the foot of the large hill termed Sophomore Year”. Here we were joined by Car- rie May Mitchell, Iris Machcn and Isabel Martinez who had been convinced that our road led to the goal. As we journeyed on. we became more accustomed to the struggle, and our bur- dens were easier to bear. With Mrs. McLean as our sponsor, we found that the road was not all hard and difficult, but here and there, where we least expected it, smooth stretches and good times, such as picnics, hikes and parties, brightened the faces of the weary travellers. Now the third hill, not so steep as the first two, loomed ahead and Bernice Edwards, Ethleen Reimcrs and Eleanor Neel joined us on our quest for knowledge. Directed by our sponsor. Miss Hoyt, the “Jollv Juniors” staged a Merrv Car- nival, the proceeds of which helped us in entertaining the none- too dignified Seniors with a house party at Andelk lodge. Ah! As we gained the summit of the third hill, what is that which we see ahead—none other than that goal, for which we have been struggling these three years—Graduation. For this last lap of our journey, there were thirteen travelers. Virginia McChesnev, Kathlena McFerron. Virginia Yates and Carolyn Allan having joined us this year. We are very fortunate in having as our sponsor. Miss Harriet Stokes. The burdens, again, grew heavy, but there were pleasures generouslv scat- tered for the dignified Seniors. Near the end of the year, we were delightfullv entertained at a Junior-Senior Theater Party at Asheville. Our Senior Play, which had been one of our most troublesome pleasures, turned out even better than we had hoped. Thus, with bur- dens and with pleasures, we came to the top of the peak and our temporary goal is reached. After having thus reached our goal, we first look back at our past four years and decide that the victory has been well worth the trouble and the struggle has not been in vain. Then, with new determination and zeal, we look forward to the journey ahead, each hoping that it, too, may end happily. Eleanor Neel, Carrie Mitchell.
