ref-T H a? 7D 0 l x'r 5- R fu Senior Poem IiApologies to Henry Stoddardl There are gains for all our losses, There are balms for all our pain, But when high school years depart Thereas a sadness in each heart For they never come again.

But tho, earlier years have vanished And we sigh for them. in vain, We press onward and lhere7s gladness, For weyll live in them again. Page Sixteen
