CLASS SONG—FAREWELL Tune “Farewell Summer. ' Dear old school, our hour has come. Our toil is o’er, our prize is won. Tho the future gleams before us. Still our eyes look fondly back To the victories in football. Basketball and field and track. To debates and contests, too. Dear old school, ’twas all for you! CHORUS. Fare you well, dear Oakfield High School, Teachers, friends and schoolmates true. Fare you well, dear Oakfield High School, Farewell, farewell to you. Fare you well, dear Alma .Mater, Days of toil well-mixed with play. Never will we be together As we have been day by day. All these joyful times are past now. We must leave them all behind— Yet, the memory still lingers Lovingly within each mind. 19 S. A. M.

“ He met her in the meadow And they walked along: together In the twilight’s after glow. She waited while right gallantly He lowered all of the bars. Her soft eyes beamed upon him, As radiant as the stars. She smiled not, nor thanked him, Indeed she knew not how, For he was just a farmer lad, And she—a Jersey cow.” —Exchange. 20
