THE 1919 SENIOR ANNUAL CLASS POEM On the threshold of l..ife's portals, with our youthful minds serene, Happiest of all happy mortals, stands the Class l9l9. Four long years we've toiled and striven, helped by teachers kind and true, Who've their strength and talent given solving problems old and new. We have passed through Trig. and Latin, Algebra and English IV, Geometry us long enchanted, for we tried it o'er and o'erg Through the French and English grammar hurried we with ready ease, While a few learned how to hammer or to play typewriter keys. Young are we, but brave and eager, ready to begin Life's work, To give help though it be meager, and to daily toil, nor shirk. Some of us will go to college, there to study and learn more, That we may obtain the knowledge which will swell our golden store. Some will seek for fame and glory in our country or in others, Some will toil among the lowly, helping lift their weaker brothers, We shall all have toil and trouble as we fight in life's great fray, But it will our strength redouble just to think of R. F. A. For 'tis here we've learned the lesson that all things come to those who try If we only keep on working we must conquer by and by. Here we've striven hard to master that great ogre Concentration, And perhaps we'll learn its value some time after graduation. Some great scholars, history tells us, through the years our school has seen, But we're sure that none had greater than our Class I9l9g High of aim, with true endeavor, never daunted by the way, We shall prove to all forever we're the pride of R. F. A. M. E. R., 'I9. 25
