Class Yell. Rickety, rickety, rickety rus. What in the world is the matter with us? Nothing at all; nothing at all: Juniors, Juniors beats them all! In the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and ten. There ascended the stairs some unusually bright, Brilliant students, as Freshmen, with paper and pen. Who were soon to display the real meaning of “might. That these Freshmen were green, as all Freshmen so seem, We, with truth, would not dare contradict; But their minds seemed receptive, alert and so keen That all felt that they dealt with a very smart “click. As we now do look back, memory once more calls out The great honor which fell to our A moth. When with books in his arms, and his face in a pout. To Room C he was sent, to remaineth. Then as Sophies, we took up our work with great ease, And in all school affairs were the leaders, indeed! For our motto was forward and upward, you see. And it's quality always, not quantity leads. In that year, glory shone all around and about So that many thought genius held sway in our class; And our schoolmates and teachers were led from all doubt. When from Seniors, we many and fair honors grasped.

If in the past years we have sent forth much light, It is this year we’ve set such a terrible pace That all classes will have to get up, and run tight. If they wish for some glory to get in this race. If we're numbered, you'll learn that we’re forty and more, And of male and of female quite equally mixed: It’s our hope that diplomas will reach more than two score. And from all present prospects, this seems almost fixed. Our foundation is sound, and seems quite firmly laid. For a member of '14 quite recently said. That when classification of angles is made, That among them, the classes of triangles led. And our own little “Babe” one day fell on the floor, And what laughter and giggles accompanied the sight! For to have one like Gracia fall down, caused a roar As has never been heard at a pugilist fight. It is our privilege and duty, this year. To produce the small booK which you have in your hand; And it surely has cost us some labor and fear. But we’ve done it, believe me, the best that we can. That the year is most gone makes us feel very sad; For we’ve had such i jolly old time with our work, And we’ve formed many friendships, of which we’re so glad That we hate now, around us that summer will lurk. And in days, when we all become burdened with age, And our heads shall be gray, and our faces so pale. We shall turn over life's roughly stained written page. And to 'l l we’ll tribute our deeds which ne'er failed. So my class, may you ever be loyal, anti proud Of our colors, our blue and our gold, brilliant hues; And may ever the praises for Juniors lx loud. So that others may feel that to '14 we're true. So, Hail to the class that in triumph advances! Hail to her colors, oh high may they soar! Hail to the class that with victory prances! Hail to our motto, Kxcelsior. K. L. S. 14.
