prophecy for the graduates, scor-
ing them genially as class spirit
dictates.
After another chorus, "Barca-
role" and some excellent remarks
by Msssrs. Bright and Lay of the
Board of Education, the program
was finished on the lawn where
the four classes were prettily
grouped about the rose planted by
the Seniors. First came their class
song, and the chorus rang out
merrily,
| 80 we are the class OF 1902,
with our colors OF crimson and gray,
| with our motto OF Amino non Astutia
| o we are the class OF seven.n
Each member of the class threw
on the roots of the rose a spade
full of earth, and then Maud Nc
Manigal, holding at her side the
spade with its grey handle and
crimson ribbon, addressed the Ju-
niors. In a charming and vivaci-
Gus manner she bade them care for
the rose in memory of its planters,
accept the spade and use it next
spring to beautify the lawn, re-
membering the greater significance
in that it meant digging, not alone
in the earth, but to the heart of
all truth and life.
For the Juniors, Dallas Sunder-
land accepted the care of the rose
and the spade, making bright
little speech to the Seniors, who,
he declared, had absorbed their
wise thoughts and cleverness from
his class.
Their class song with a banner
drill was then given by the Juniors,
who were the brightest spot on the
wide green lawn. The girls in brill
liant red dresses with white ribbons
and banners, the boys in white suits
with red ties and white banners. AS
they saiuted, crossed, circled. and
waved, they made a most pictur-
esque figure, singing with vim and
emphasis their chorus,
"Hurrah for the class OF 1903!
We are genuine aristocracy.
Hurrah for the red, and hurrah for the white!
Old 1908, you bet, is all right!
A beautiful flower drill was then
given by twelve Sophomore and
Freshman girls gowned in white and
carrying baskets of roses, and this
was followed by rousing l.. H. S.
song, composed by Orla Wright,
member of 1904.
LII. $. SONG.
Each morn when Phebus casts first light
Upon our Hooking hills,
He twines his flowing tresses bright
Like fallow ivy frills,
About our dear old l.. II, S.
In loving tenderness,
While in each room he breathes, ,perchance,
A cure for ignorance.
CHORUS.
Then hurrah, hurrah, hurrah,
For the High School OF Logan!
Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah,
With vim well shout this sloganl
Engraved on gold shall be her name,
Her greatness half untold;
While far and wide We'll float the fame
OF Ofglorious i. H. S.
'Tis thou, mother OF ambition,
That gives us all new life;
Tis thou that shows to us our mission
In the future strife:
o l.. H. s., how oft the day
With thee we've passed away,
While from thy crystal fount of dew.
We quaffed sweet knowledge new.
Each room doth hold some memory dear,
Each desk some secret knows,
SO that they tend to draw us near
Where wisdom's fountain flows
o l.. II. s., our city's pride,
Thy greatness none can hide;
Shine forth in all thy glorious light,
To teach us truth and right.
Senior and Junior yells finished
this very successful morning. then
selves one of the greatest successes.
for the very welkin seemed to ring
with 1902 and 1903.
