William Northrop Gordon Jameson Grace DeWolfe 1910” We stated as a Freshman class. This class of nineteen-ten, And we’ve been studying good and hard ’Most every day since then. We have taken Latin, ‘Dutch’, and French. Some History and Math; We’ve also tired to keep within The straight and narrow path. The second year we were class cd Sphs— And didn’t we feel grand? We thought the Freshman class below The queerest in the land. As juniors we did grind and grind At Shorthand and Typewriting! Some chose to study Chemistry The Lb.” was so inviting. But now ’tis really nineteen-ten, [j Our Senior year is here. And we, alas! must say farewell To the Quincy High so dear. The most of us will graduate. I f we study on ’till June, But some of us will come next year To hum the same old tune.” Sally Baker 1910 Class Song Tune of “Old Oaken Bucket.” How dear to our hearts are the scenes of our school- days When fond recollection presents them to view; The German, the French, the Latin, and English And the loved studies our schooldays then knew The echoing chorus and the Orchestra with it. The baseball and football each spring and each fall. The office,the class rooms, where we students did sit. And always the spirit that breathed over all. The spirit of Quincy, the bright cheery spirit We bequeath to those taking our places next fall
