Clasi o©m d (§ij2x the op Still once again do these portals stand wide As before they have done and yet oft they will do; ! And we are before you to bid fare-thee-well, To friends that are many and foes that are few. To you who have shared in our sorrows and joys, Have lessened each failure, enjoyed each success, Thus opening for us the path that is best, To you do we owe what words cannot express. For, greater than all, we will carry with us A lesson that only Life ' s trials can lend, Not sought and not found in the pages of books. The knowledge that somewhere on earth is a friend. May we meet once again where there is no defeat. Where strength never fails and kind deeds never stop. May we meet once again when our battles are won — In the land of Success — just over the top. — Mary C. Ricc 27

Words by Mary C. Ricca Music by Wilbur Elmer Our Uncle Sam has sent his call To every happy heart Each boy, each girl must answer now Each one must do his part, This school, these friends, these teachers, too, Have opened up the way, Have trained our hearts to Duty ' s call Beneath War ' s mighty sway. Chorus: So, goodbye comrades, one and all In duty ne ' er we ' ll stop. Until we meet you once again. When we ' ve gone over the top. II. Yet ol ' ten will we gaze with joy In mem ' ry ' s fountain dear. And know again the youthful hopes That we have nourished here — Four years of life upon life ' s tide Four years of work and fun Have made us stronger for the test But only now begun. 26
