oem OUR SENIOR STAR In the sky there is our Senior Star. It shines with purity and happiness. Through the years it has followed us far, While we prospered together with rapidness. When we were six our mother said, When we had come home after our play, Now children, you must go to bed. Tomorrow begins a new school day. Through grammar school our Star gleamed brightly. We worked and played together. Our golden star was beaming with light, So we could win another feature. Through junior-high school we came with pleasure. Our star to shine brighter. And the profitable time we could not measure, For our friendly smiles grew brighter. Our high school days we then began With new faces, friends and teachers. Our grades and spirits we did expand, While everyday we bought new features. And now we are graduating from T. H. S. We ' ve had fun through laughter and through sorrow. The question would be difficult to guess, If we should chance to meet tomorrow. But let ' s go out and begin a vacation. Our talent and ambition can carry us far. We shall all be glad to make a notation That we will ever be followed by OUR SENIOR STAR. Shirley Roberson Class Poet Motto: Not to advance is to recede Colors: Blue and White Flower: Rose
