The list of the list of the graduates was
given in yesterdays report of the school

The class song, music and words by
Malcolm E. Nichols, is as follows ;.
The day that once seemed distant
Too soon, alas is here,
When '95, departing,
Must leave this school SO dear.
-Four years ago, as freshmen,
We came, ten score or less,
With hearts of dauntless courage,
To win, each one, success.
The years so swiftly feeting.
Have many changes wrought,
Till now, not half who started,
We've reached the goal we sought.
No more shall we as pupils
Behold the pleasant scene
First viewed with dread of failure,
Now left with sorrow keen.
But if to land far distant
Some go their separate way,
Still memories of their class mates
Will Ger their hearts hold sway.
Though some shall reach fame'S summit
Some fail of what they d do,
Let each, with steadfast purpose,
The path of right puruse.
Our course is now completed,
Performed each pupils part,
And filled with noble longings,
Beats faster every heart. Fs.-
May fortune tickle goddess,
Her gifts upon us rain;
But If she proves inconstant,
We, classmates, friends remain.
Now '95, departing,
Its farewell song doth raise,
With thoughts of classmates loyal,
And gladstone High School days.
