GRACIOUS DAYS from A Southern Rosary We come so gaily here this eye With happy thoughts in every heart, Though knowing all too wellfthat After this we soon shell part. Our graduation day has come. --The greatest of all the year: For this hour we long have yearned Without 0 single fear. Yet separate paths we each shall tread, --Each climb o different hill: For some the way will rugged be, For others calm and still But new our hearts boat as one, v-In this lovely garden spot, As backward we turn sixty years To times almost forgot. Backward we step into yesterday to charm,yeu for an hour, With qufint old customs and melodies in this rosy southern bower H oi if And Thi -vw Hho Thi And I'm we love those long full dresses these flowers in our hair, the old vehthered columns, with roses clinging everywhere. spot could tell of others who fashioned dreams before: lived :nd hoped and lost and built up their hopes once more. spot might tell of strupgles,--of fear and sorrow shared: of the dreut strength of character of mon and women who dared sure it could toll us somethinp to Ouide us ell along, ' To fill our lives with laughter,--on our lips lilt Q song. Glrssmatcs, the years come,--and aye the years may Oo, But mpy we ever keep our school day Memories all uglow. Let's cross our hearts, lets make a vow To keep our faith strong and true Our youthful dreams of being greet, Our ideals fresh and new. Lot's never doubt nor vivo way to fear, But livc triumphnntly and ever find Beauty, COUTRQC, Gnd faithfulness As We minple with mcnkind.i Let's trensuyg forever the days gone by Those Qrccious days at Reynolds High. --Betty Dunlap --Mildred Schmidt
