Paxton High School Reflector (£lass iJuntt—JJurplr am'i (61H11 Ere we leave thee, dear P. H. S. Ere we take another step, all l'p the great stairway of success. We stop a moment to recall All the joys of old enthralling Our hearts. Then we leave thee calling, “Farewell.” Classmates, let us unfold Our Banner of Purple and Gold. The purple, so perfect a blend Of pure, rich red. and clear, bright blue— The red for love and faith in friend. And the blue for brotherhood true— Gives us absolute sovereignty Of wisdom and fraternal confidence. May we unto Eternity, Abide by it's significance. Gold! the true, honest, sterling gold, Color of radiant sunshine And symbol of all glory told; May it purify and refine Our characters through gloomy days. Let it’s ring of sincerity Prove to be a blessing always Of Happiness and prosperity. Purple and Gold! Be with us e’er. And. as we gallantly march forth Into the crowded thoroughfare Of life, give strength to prove our worth. Help us honorably to adorn And crown with joy and victory The path of life where we perform Our missions to humanity. Edgar Peterson T9. ’
