CLASS POEM Our school days are over, our boohs we've been through, And now we go into the world our good work to do. We’ve put our childhood behind us, our new jobs to find, It's a hard task before us the scared world to bind. But it's up to us, Classmates, to do our ]evel best, To cover the wounds and let the tired earth rest. When the conflict is over they'll need lots of aid, To help put us back on the up-climbing grade. So let us be ready all Democracy to save, So we can walk like free men, not like slaves.' Marion Parsons '43 22
