The Contrast HE brown, windraped Old High Stands part way up a hill, Its halls and courts are empty, Its rooms are dark and still, Though once ,twas filled with students, It now is left alone, With naught for consolation Save thoughts of days now gone. And while it sadly muses O'er glories passed away, A vastly diiferent building Is filled with voices gay. The tall, fair, white New High School, Perched high above the town, 1 Receives the carefree students, And proudly gazes down, It views the town and country, And far across the plain, It sees the snow-clad mountains, Which border its domain. The Old High School looks backward To days that now have gone, The New High School looks forward With joy to each new dawn. The Old High School, once crowded,' Deserted is, and sad, The New One, filled with students, Is proud of them, and glad. And thus the two, so ditierent, Are yet alike, all told, The Old High School was once new, The New One will be old. School ROBIN NELSON 31
