Sparta High School - Spartan Yearbook (Sparta, MI)

CLASS DOENI In leaving halls that mean so much A host of memories dear Are brought back in these passing thoughts Of each past and present year. Of hours we've spent, and fun we've had Of friends who hate to part The plays, the games, the band, and chorus That linger in each heart. The pleasures and the hardships Have combined to'make complete The years we've shared at Sparta High We hold them as elite. But even as we graduate And leave these realmsg we see Our hopes turn to the future And the challenge of life's great sea. And looking now to greater things We see the nearing year, When the burdens of a troubled world will he our own to bear. ,We lift this humble prayer to God That the wisdom which we take Will be the instrument we need To put a broken earth in shape. --Don E. Bradford
