4 ▲ A a The Garnet and White At the End of (lie Trail THREE years ago we, the Class of Thirty-three, began our journey down the High School Trail. We began with hesitant, insure steps, but with hope and ambition in our hearts. Now our trip is over, and we are closing the gate behind us. For some it has been a long, rough road; for most, it has been a happy way; but for all, it has been a path leading us to the future. When we set out on the trail, the gate seemed away in the distance; but the journey has been com- pleted, and now we must say, “Farewell.” Alma Mater, you, who have guided us on this journey, have taught us much. Our lessons have been gained not alone from textbooks and classrooms. 1 hese have given us the material knowledge with which we may battle life; but in addition you have broadened our view, added to our ambitions, and given us worthy examples to follow. Such lessons will help us in our future work when we are beyond the gate. To many of us the future is hazy, for we are still undecided as to the best course to follow; but wherever our futures lies, we shall always have the memory of our past high school days. Through these memories we shall gain encouragement and guidance. On the Trail we have learned to know and to love many friends. There is no finer, no better gift that our Alma Mater could have given us than that of true friendship. Many of these acquaintances may become only memories but they will be pleasant visions, some of which will hold out to us hope and inspiration. For all these gifts and for your guidance, Alma Mater, we offer our sincerest thanks. May we ever hold your name in reverence. Remember our Class of Nine- teen Hundred Thirty-three, for we shall need your support to aid us on the longer journey before us. The gate is slowly closing, for we have reached the end of the Trail. One last message, one last challenge greets our eyes: “All the world lies before you; walk on.” Marjorie Chambers, ’33. © -three Thirty A faith in all mankind— A faith that never dies; High hopes and dreams of living That reach to farthest skies; In all our lives an honor, A courage in our fears; The power to know all joy And grief and pain with tears. Yet still to walk unbowed. Unbroken bv life’s blows; To keep our souls unbruised. Immune to minor woes; A love that fills our hearts And strengthens us to live; A knowledge that in life The man who takes must give; All this has been our code In years that now are gone. Henceforth our heritage For us to carry on! Priscilla L. Cox, ’33.
