OFFICERS James Lancas ................................ President John Hacker..............................Vice-President Clair Jones.........................Secretary-Treasurer A PLEDGE To the years that faded softly, To the days unnoticed sped. We pledge our future eagerly For adventures that lie ahead. We promise to seek greater knowledge, With minds courageous, unchained. By the depths and brilliance of music By poetry’s witchery, trained. We will see beauty in forests Where night rests on whispering wings. Or listen in silent communion To rustlings of wild wood-land things. Pulsating, speed tortured cities, Mills etching tall buildings in fire The roar of great motors will thrill us, The sight of great ships will inspire. Knowledge we'll gain through experience, Character, patience, through pain To be worthy of life’s greatest glory That lies in remembrance, not gain. James T. McLaughlin. 18
