m TURNERS FALLS HIGH SCHOOL Class Song o In the twilight we are gathered, Friends we’ve been for four long years, While we studied and endeavored, Till our day of parting nears. Out into the world we venture, And to all our friends we say, “Should old acquaintance be forgot” As we pass upon our way. Turners days are days of glory, Memory lives in every heart, And tonight we stand together Bound by song before we part. Now from high school we are going, With these words we say “Goodby” “Should old acquaintance be forgot” And our days at Turners High. Music by Gordon Higinbolham Words by Pearl Long Class Ode Dear Class of 1935 Our love we pledge anew Our faith, our loyalty, and strength, Our lives we give to you. The influence that you have wrought The future years will show We’ll keep our standards ever high And strive to rise and grow. The happy days that we have shared, The friendships held so dear, The memories of all our days, Will last for many a year. And now that final days are here Our hearts would like to tell Our love for Alma Mater true Before we say, “farewell.” Janet Jillson 19 3 5 seven
