Senior Class Poem The day has dawned upon our minds That has been looked to long before, The day when we leave our school behind, As we exit through its welcome door. Four hard years of ceaseless toiling, Four glad years of untold joy, From our minds are now recoiling To the hearts of each girl and boy. Soon shall we enter in real life, As we go from beneath this roof But with out knowledge of the strife, We can put ouselies to proof. For we haue worked hard, every clay, And we are conscious of success,- So when Time brings that final day, 'Twill make the pains of parting less. Let us then, say a fond farewell To those whom we may see no more, Let Future decide, what she might tell To the class of 'Twenty Four. -Daniel Damitio '24,

,,,,-ffqx- K gif ' g ,N, pf- ., - if si The Black and Gold Classmates, teachers, parents, friends-I have chosen for my topic tonight, one that seems eminently fitting for this, our last night as Seniors of the Oakville High School, that is our glorious colors, Black and Gold. , From the beginning of time, gold has been the symbol of value, and of purity. As pure as refined gold , has passed into a proverb, and as good as gold, as true as gold, as pure as gold, are com- parisons in almost daily use. But gold in its native state, is never pure. It must always be tried by fire, and purged of all dross and impurities, before it attains to the perfection of its highest state of value, and here is where the black of trial and tribulation is in- troduced, for the gold can never reach its best except through the blackness of the purifying heat. Thus it must be with the formation of our characters, and with the living of our lives. The gold must represent to each one of us, the perfection of character and attainment that we aim to reach in our development, but the gold of itself would be far from pure were it not for the blend of the black that brings out its true value and makes the character perfect through suffering , in the same proportion as gold is made pure by fire. The gold and black may well represent the contrast between sun- shine and shadow. We would have life all sunshine if we could, but we know how much better our lives really shine forth through the shadow, and how much stronger our characters are for the refining influence of dark and gloomy days, so we voluntarily and bravely blend the black with the gold, accepting the trial for its purifying and developing power, and appreciating the sunshine far more because of the shadow that preceded it. The gold, always bright in itself, shines with a double radiance, when it mingles with the black, just as all our brightest days shine with a brighter luster through the gloom of disappointment and hardships. Knowing then that every experience leaves its mark, either of strength or weakness, upon our lives, we do not ask for the gold alone, but blending it with the proper proportions of the black form a combination that stands for attainment for power, and for success. To get a good start on the road to success, let us first know definitely what we want. This the first great step on this royal road. After this we will make plans for our work, so that when opportunity ,r li A-is -will 'i3:l., ff if-aff figs I r I ffl I J rfdmgggigggfigiuhfxfmgpfgi,icw
