THE CLASS POEM

The class poem which was com
posed by Elizabeth Nancy Wilson
was read by her as class poetess. The
poem entitled "In Flight" follows
AS young birds from their nests are
attempting to fly,
When still weak and their wings
they SO hopefully try,
Their pinions, INFESTED, will fail Oft
to bear
Them upward and onward through
thin, pathless air.
They flutter, they struggle in efforts
to rise
These venturesome messengers of
the far skies
They sink, then they fall, but at last
soar aloft,
Now high, and now higher, amid
cloudlets soft
OF failure they know not, they only
achieve,
Most fruitful their efforts when dull
earth they leave,
Their earnest endeavors are crowned
with the best,
These fledglings so eager to leave
the home nest.
On pinfons grown strong, they are
now borne along
Till high in the heavens resounds
their glad song,
Ever singing of JOY with full-throat-
ed ease,
The thrill OF their rapturous hearts
to appease.
Thus we, like the birds, from these
portals so wide,
Henceforth on the bosom of life must
now glide,
Taught by them for highest in life to
aspire,
That the truest, the noblest, must be
our desire.
Oft fond backward glances wen cast
to you here,
To our own Alma Mater, our mother
most dear,
steps throughout youth,
You've urged US from childhood to
CLEAN but the truth.
Still onward and onward, success be
our lot,
May each hidden future be unstained
by a blot;
May Fortune her mantle DER each
head extend.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1914-06-10
Presidents Welcome

Gerard Huiskamp. president of the
fathers and friends of the class to the
class day exercises in the following
we'll chosen words:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
The class wishes to extend to you
this morning hearty welcome and
to thank you for your interest in orr
class day. 1t is not generally under
stood how class day originated and
what its purpose is, so l shall take a
few minutes to explain.
/ Formerly class day was the day on
which the class gathered together for
the last time for social purposes. DUE
| ing this meeting, certain members
furnished various forms of amuse-
ment for the entertainment OF the
| class. AS it seemed selfish for each
class to keep It's pleasure to itself it
to those who are interested and wish
| to enjoy the last social meeting Of
| the class with them. Also custom
has arranged the forms Of amusement
into set program. And, SO, we too
have welcomed you this morning and
have provided the customary enter
| tainment.
| In this program we have history.
which takes us back over incidents of
our school life and calls up pleasant
memories. On the other hand we
have a prophecy in which is shown in
an optimistic and joking manner what
future is appropriate for, each Of our
! number. Also, as this Is the last time
we met under our own direction, it is
fitting for US to have will prepared
and read. But since we are not gath
erred together for the purpose of griev-
| ing, the will has a great deal of the
ridiculous in it. We also have an or
alton and poem which are rendered
for our entertainment by members Of
ability. In the course of our merry
! making, our happiness demands a
song so we have authorized certain
members of talent to compose song
for us.
If we over-estimate our ability or
originality this morning, remember
that with thinking of what a fine class
we are, we are cheering ours elves
from the sad thought of leaving our
school associations. At this point
take the opportunity to thank our
teachers whose altruistic labors have
placed us in the position we now
hold. And SO, We feel grateful to
them for their service and sad at the
thought Of parting.
But let us turn to happier thoughts
and enjoy ourselves together. l sin
cerely hope that every one will enter
into the spirit of our program and
that you will long remember this day
thank you.

Class Historical Sketch

The history of the class of 1914
was written and read by Irwin French
Coombs, whose chronicles of the
doings of that body here appear:
History is, as we all know, a state
