The Senior Year Book— 1933 CLASS OF 1033 (Class Jlorrn Time has blown a long clear blast, It calls us all to see The path of life; unknown and strange We feel it is to be. It summons, here, before our eyes, Our school days, short and sweet. The years of thought and happiness That, again, we’ll never meet. Let action be our motto, Success, our aim in life. Faith and hope, the anchors Which hold fast in case of strife. Let a life of worth and honor Forever be our goal. And, as our ranks divide today, Content in every soul. The future is for us to make; Ours is to win or fail. Our will can conquer doubt of mind, Strength and truth shall prevail. And with victory as our leader. Courage our guide to be, Farewell to Westerly High School And the Class of Thirty-three. Jean Thomson, ’33. (Class nf ’33 Tune “Day Is Dying in the West Grace L. Bliven I Westerly, we must say goodbye, ’Though we hate to break the tie, But to be what God deems w:sn We must part, ’though trials arise, And go our way. Chorus Westerly, Westerly, Westerly, —Our dear old school— We will take fond memories With us over life’s dark seas, And praise Westerly. II Saddened hearts and dewy eyes Say for us our sweet goodbyes. World of wonder, we shall find What thou hast for us inclined. We hope ’tis well. Chorus — 6

The Senior Year Book— 193.1 Aiiftrpaa - (Ulaaa Nuiht E Class of 1933 wishes to extend to you a most cordial and hearty welcome to this last evening of joy and frolic together as members of dear old Westerly High. To the citizens of Westerly we desire to express our gratitude for their interest in our undertakings, both social and scholastic, and for their support of our class throughout its rather stormy trip through High School life. Tomorrow is graduation day for the Class of 1933. Many of us will go forth into the world of business; others will seek a higher education; but whichever path is chosen, the wise teachings and advice of our faculty members will provide us with our first firm stepping-stone to success. Graduation is what we have striven for through the four years of our High School life, but now that our goal is reached, a sense of sorrow and regret has fallen upon us because we must leave these worn old halls and the many happy associations that bind us to them. Though we go forth into the turbulent stream of Life, the many joyful memories and the strong, enduring friendships we have formed will attend us and help to protect us from the disillusionments that must inevitably be ours. No pleasanter wish can be expressed than that our future years may be as happy as those we have spent in Westerly High. But enough of the gloomy side of graduation ! We shall forthwith put it from our minds and enter upon an evening of fun and revelry. The highlights of our illustrious class will be revealed to you by two world-renowned historians considered worthy of this singular honor. A noted seer and prophet has been secured at great expense to reveal what the future holds in store for each of us. After months of deliberation, a celebrated lawyer has drawn up our last will and testament and it is his solemn duty, this evening, to break the seal of the weighty and important document and proclaim it to all present. A benevolent philanthropist has announced that he will give tonight, to each member of the class, a rare and costly gift. Half of his enormous fortune has been expended upon these marvelous objects, the appropriateness of which we will let you judge. I will now yield my place to these various important personages, that they may tell you of the many original deeds of the Class of 1933. —ERNEST FULFORD. -4 8 4-
