Our Class of Forty Now on the threshold let us pause Before we bid farewell and go; Let the warmth of our memories ease the way From the comrades whom we’ve learned to know. From the friendliness, from the happiness Of our sheltered Wilson days From our childhood trials, the twelve years spent Let us smile-and turn our gaze. Tomorrow stretches ahead of us Like a curving, misty trail Half formed by what has gone before But still unshaped and pale. This is the path that we will add To the civilized roads behind. Another link In the onward trek One that is yours and mine. What will it be? Where will it go? This trail that WE must live- Let it be said that its challenge was met By the best that we had to give. We are sent on our way with the echo of war From Europe’s tom. scarred lands, And knowing that much of the fate of the world Is in young America’s hands. Our way won’t be smooth, but we’ve been well prepared We’ve ideals that are worthy and tried We’ve been given the best by our country and school And we’ve faith and youth on our side. We’re proud of the heritage given to us By our fathers, for history’s shown That even in trouble or apparent defeat. Americans' spirits have grown. We, too, will live up to these standards they set, And promise the world as we go That it will take much to defeat out high aims. To subdue our ardor’s keen glow Yes, a few of us will fall by the way. Big success won’t reward everyone; But each will contribute his humble best Until our trail is won. NORMA STQCKWELL
