Class Song Farewell, Western Itligh School Far above the old Bay's waters, With its Waves of blue Stands our faithful Western High School So familiar to our view. When we have left behind us, Our happy high school days, The future shall remind us, Of Western High School praise. CHORUS Lift the chorus, speed lit onward, Loud her praises tell: Hail to thee! our Western High School Hail, all hail! farewell. ELIZABETH PIERCE
