THE I! KHALI) CLASS SONG Now the time has come for parting, Tis our turn to say farewell. As our lessons all are finished Au«i our saddened bosoms swell. Won has been our chosen purpose, So with laurels yet unseen We will part, perhaps forever, On this campus bright and green. While with victory, fame and fortune. Marked upon t ' ese hearts of ours We willtread li fe’s world of hardships Just as well as sunny 1 owers. So with just one word of saddness We will now make onr farewell Sotigs of Alma Mater ' s gladness Ever on the breezes swell. Chorus: Fare thee well, oh Ain a Mater, Fare thee well, old school so near. Fare thee well, old balls and classrooms, You to us will etill 1 e dear. Agnes Frey. ' J4
