ECHO Senior Class Poem If at first you fail to win, In your school work, try again. Don 't sit down and cuss your luck, But brace right up and, use your pluck. School's path with exams is thickly strewn, And with those who quit high school too soon. To conquer all, we have to workg T'will never do our tasks to shirk. Among the wisest are some fools, But the fewest are found in our best high schools Yet along this happy school year of ours, We will find a great plenty of real sorrows. School 's rugged way is oft' times rough, We oft, must face some hard rebuff, But for every low grade wear a smile, Work all the harder, for the next great trial. To be successful we must iight To receive a diploma on commencement night. Battle on from day to day, Never loitera by the Way. Choose for your colorsepurple and white, And your flower the rose so pure and white. Show loyalty to your class and school, And always live up to the Golden Rule. One cannot earn the prize in a day. Many an obstacle blocks the way, So in your life when clouds grow black, Just face the front and don't turn back. Quality not quantity ever your motto be, Even if it take you o'er a rough or endless sea, Going into the world to do what's right, To succeed, we must work with all our might. When commencement day is past, Years will fly so very fast. We 'll apply our education, Sinking only a true foundation. We 're fourteen in number-that is only a few- We'll strive We Seniorsf, whatevervwe do For Health, Truthfulness, Love, and Fame. May we forever hold an honored name. Nettie Beer PAGE TWENTY EIGHT
