THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD CLASS DAY EXERCISES. ADDRESS OF WELCOME. Members of the School Board, Superintend¬ ent, Teachers, Undergraduates, Parents, and Friends:— For the honor of being class president, I extend thanks to my classmates, and, in the name of the Class of 1923, 1 welcome- ' you all here to-night. All entering classes, in any school, look forward to tf e day when they will grad¬ uate and receive their diplomas. It was with that prospect in view that we entered Windsor Locks High School four years ago. We have, now completed our four years at Windsor Locks High, and by earnest and diligent study, we have attained our goal. But graduation comes not without its sorrows. Our High School days have been days of gladness. The thought that we are leaving them is indeed a sad one. In school our teachers have guided us over the rough places, but from now on we are our own guides on the path of Lite , where the world will be our school, life our study, and experience our teacher. However, let us consider the present. 1 hope you will enjoy our program this even¬ ing, as you get a glimpse of the brighter side of our High School life, but still we feel confident that to-morrow’s program will be just as interesting although more serious. Let me remind you once more, dear friends, that we are glad to have you with us this evening, and I sincerely hope that before we have departed, some joy will have been brought to all. Nathaniel Pastore, ’23. -(o)- CLASS SONG. To lhe tune of “Faded Old Love Letters or Mine.” Classmates we are all gathered here to¬ night Together for our last farewell, Four years we all have striven to do right And memories in our hearts will dwell, Of the school on the hill Where we worked with a will Ever striving our goal to reach. Chorus. Fare thee well our High School, And faithful teachers dear Each day we will recall with joy The happy hours spent here. Our four short years are over. Which we shall not forget, Though with feelings of sadness We now say farewell To our school and our Alma Mater. Like ships that are leaving the harbor And sailing out into the depths, So classmates we are all starting to-night To brave the turbulent waves of life. Many times we’ll look back To our dear old High School And to those loved ones we’ve left behind. And as we go on our separate ways Our one heart’s desire shall be, To make our school and our teachers, both proud Of the Class of 1923. So we’re leaving to-night For a new start in life Anl our sorrow no other can tell. And our sorrow no other can tell. -(o)- PRESENTATION OF GIFT. To the Windsor Locks High School:— Where our best four years have been spent, we, the Class of 1923, feel that it is a great privilege to us to leave some token of gratitude. What shall we give ? What will be of the. most use and inspiration to our school¬ mates and friends ? These questions were of vital importance to us in selecting a gift. Patriotism has been defined as a feeling of the human heart, and on e of the noblest to whom humanity is an heir. The spirit of patriotism should be fos¬ tered in the hearts of children, both at home and at school. The first thing to do is to. teach them the history’ of the flag and its significance as an emblem of patriotism, and then to respect and use it with care. In the study’ of history, civics and rhetcricals, the flag will play a great part. So, it is to-night a great pleasure to
