Page thirty-eight fluid! Df 1927 GBM tn the beninr Glass nf 1927 Upward toward steep mystic hilltops Where Life's compensations lie, Climb with swift pace up vague mountains Ere young strength begins to die, Though dim shadows veil Life,s high roads Rough and winding be the trail, Fearless hearts will search new pathways, Leading starward from the vale. 7 So emerge from shelt'ring havens Leaving youthful comrades dear, Sundlring all fair school day friendships, Firmly forged with passing year, And engraved in mind forever, Mem'ries of each by gone hour Will repel despair and sadness Will enrich our buoyant power. Through the misty maze of darkness Life's lane drear and gloomy seems, But seek always for the summit With its white-capped sparkling beams, Ne'er retreating nor delaying Journey on toward higher goals, Helping fellow travelers upward Fearless and brave hearted souls. So we're gazing ever skyward Up the steep enshrouded way, Watching for the visioned starlight With inspiring, brilliant ray, So we're struggling ever starward Striving toward the peak of life, Clinging to the righteous Virtues Conquering thus in storm and strife.
