SENIOR POEM Four long years are past since we entered this school As Freshmen with worthy intent, And now through the strife we have kept our goal, And are Seniors, the self-confident. We are sorry to leave the dear school we love, Which has sheltered us through all our trials, But wherever life's fortunes may lead us, we know That sweet memories shall shorten the miles. Our thanks from the heart, to the teachers, we'd give Who have been our best friends all the way, Who have always been willing to lend us their aid, Tho we came to them day after day. Our sincerest hopes will always be held, For our school to win fame above all, And for us who go forth to fight the battles of life, Hope our places to wiser ones fall. To those whom we leave we would give these few words Of hope and encouragement and aid, That the lessons we learned through experience hard Shall in mind and in heart never fade. Never shun any task that might ever arise, But attack them with vigor and vim, After years of struggles and trials have passed, For our class has been proud with a prominence rare, Your ship of success will come in. l Looking back o'er those years of patient learning, A feeling of pride e'er enthralls, For the class has been proud with a prominence rare In activities where our school calls. We Seniors who stand on the threshold of Life, Join hands to wish all success, And where'er our paths lead our footsteps of life, Naught can dim the fond memory of our dear 0.
