THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD 15 CLASS DAY EXERCISES. ADDRESS OF WELCOME. Members of the School Board, Superintend¬ ent, Teachers, Undergraduates, Parents and Friends:— It is with pleasure that I, in behalf of the Class of 1924, welcome you here this even¬ ing. Every class that enters High Scfool has for its goal the day when it will graduate, when each member will receive a diploma t signifv his successful completion of the work laid out by the school. This was true of our class, and now that we are about to attain that object, one expects to find us all very happy. But this is not. entirely true. Graduation, besides the feeline of triumph, brings wicn it the realizaton that the happiest day of our lives are at an end. People c ay thst work in High School is a forerunner of one’s labors in later life, but let the pupil remem¬ ber that in life’s school he does rot have the knowledee and experience of teachers at hand to help with some problems that seems too difficult for him o solve. Then he will have but his own knowledge, ob¬ tained from these teachers, at the lowest o prices—attention. But this change has to come and we be¬ lieve we are prepared for it. The program to-night is an example of the bright side of our school life whereas the graduation ex¬ ercises to-morrow night will endeavor to present the more serious side. Let me assure you once more, dear friends, that we are glad you have come here to-night and we hope our program will repay you for your effort. Joseph Conrry, ’24. -(o)- CLASS SONG. Sung to “Pal of My Dreams When we turn back the years. With our eyes full of tears, We’ll remember the days spent her In our dear old High School, Where we worked for our goal May our feelings tender appear. Chorus Dear old school we must leave you forever to-night, Well remember you taught us alwa -s do right. In our chain of school memories there are links you know That are losing their grasp, and we’ll soon have to go. Now the links have all broken, yet ■» r Mnger here Just to tell you we love you and rather oe near. Oh, undergraduates and teachers, too. ho.v we will miss you Windsor Locks High. “To be. rather’n to seem.” To make our future gleam, Ts what we’l ahvavs strive to do. For some it’s not too late From their steen to wake And work to make the ; r dreams come tru . Chorus Dear old school we must leave you forever to-night. We’ll remember you taught us to always do right. In our chain of school memories there are links you know That are losing their grasp, and we’ll soon have to go. Now the links have all broken, yet we linger here Just to tell you we love you and rather be near. Oh. undergraduates and teachers, too. how we will miss you Windsor Locks High.
