T0 THE SENIORS OF 1924 Seniors, we walk in your footsteps And we look to you for the way: Oh, beware, lest you should falter, Beware, lest you lead us astray. There is only one road you should follow, There is only one path you should take, The path that leads on to victory Let no one that straight way forsake. Seniors, too soon you'll be climbing Up the narrow steep pathway of life. Seniors, you soon will be struggling In the world's turmoil and strife Seniors, hold firm in your courage, Hold firm in the work you begin, Go out in the world with a purpose, And the battle of life you will win. -Marion Rider, '26. unior- I wonder what m teacher meant b ivin me a ticket to the Y Y 8' 3 lecture on Fools.
