Senior Class Poem 'Twas in the year of nineteen five We started in the lane, To travel on the widening road That oft'times leads to fame. In the year of nineteen fourteen We started, Freshmen green, To labor for our High School, And the class of Seventeen. As Sophomores and Juniors We had joys and trials galore, And, as sainted, much loved Seniors, We are having many more. VVe've won fame in Athletics, Both by girls and boys too, We, also, have a soldier For the old Red, White, and Blue. In music we're aceommlished l In Declam' we've won o'er all, We have never been defeated And we're not prepared to fall. As for our dear Old Faculty We Seniors feel we're blest, Surely none so good as they Were given to the rest. And, now, as we are leaving, Thinking of the days gone by, Our love and our best wishes Are with the Storm Lake High. Mildred Gilmore '17

Senior Wi!! In the name of Wisdom, Amen. We, the Senior Class of 1917 of the Storm Lake High School do hereby, being of sound and disposing memory Qwe linger on the memory? make and publish this, our last will and testament in order, as justly as we may, to distribute our interests in High School. And first, that part of our business which is known in the law and recognized among all, our places which we have so diligently filled and o'er which desks we have so unceasingly toiled. Hltem.-And first we bequeath to our fellow Juniors all our intellectual ability for which we have so long been known. Item-And second, we do generously bequeath to our struggling followers, our books ffor a set pricej thereof. Item-To the Juniors, you who are no longer children, we leave also the volumes of advice on the annual to which you may turn, when publishing your own, that you may live the old days over again. Item-To the Sophomores, we leave, yea willingly, all our advice acquired by four years of actual hard earned relentless experience, namely, first, a trip to the r-fiice is purely one of delight and adventure, which everyone should try to take before leaving the Temple of Knowledge, second, that a pony for Caesar, though a nerve racking risk, is truly worth the price. , Item-And to our Freshman brothers, who are so close to our hearts, we leave all the meadows with clover blossoms and butterflies thereof and all the little birds, and the hills upon which they can coast in winter and down which they can roll in summer, and the lake where they may skate fslippere, falli, bumtusj Item-To the faculty we give all good little words of praise and all quaint pet names, and we charge said faculty to use them justly but generously as the needs of the children will require.
