Elghteen THE EAGLE CL SS POE Dear St. John's, soon we'll say Adieu,' to you, To teachers, friends, and our classmates so true, lVe,ll find no joy when we make our 'fFarewell, For one and all have learned to love you well, But, like a good mother, to us you leave Three things that will cheer us, when we would grieve, And we, fond children, will keep them always To lighten our cares and brighten our days. All thro' our lives, one light will shine so bright, Leading us bravely and showing us right, lNIaking us loyal, courageous and true, Ready to help us when our friends are few, For your motto, we thank you, dear St. John's, And ask you to never sever your bonds. 'CPro Deo et Patrial' ever in view Each one will prove his loyalty to you. In this school, many lessons we have learned, And now we know our success is well earnedg Kind teachers have guided us on our way, Showing us how to make each moment payg And all that we've learned, will help us in need, Governing each action, each word and deed, From our school days one virtue we obtained, XVith Perseveranee, all honor we gained. Alma Mater, your last gift is best made Of gayest colors that will never fadeg Mem'ries! Mem'ries of days we spent with you! Menfries of things we did and planned to do! lNIem'ries that will brighten our future years, By making us smile and hiding our tearsg VVhen we're old, and weary of pleasures lVe'll rememberfschool days and their treas- ures. lNLx1-1 B.
