CENTENNIAL FU.N
To -day, we ran a' wholehalf. mile.
No7one .finished with a . smile,
We did the broad jump yesterday,
Six feet seems oh so far away..
The ,three -thirty is' yet to come.
;That'll crate a monstrous hum.
We don't do this<because.we're
queer,
But since it is Centennial year.

.THE SCHOOL YEAR'
The year is almost at an end,
We wonder .what's around the bend
We•lookbac'k on•this yearwith funj
And all our projects' which are
done:
The' Fair, th•e •Carnival , and,

The: Fashion Show was not a bore.
.The Trip•to' Expo was our mark,
Andeveryone sang like a lark.
The teachers. and ' the students. too;
Agree that there was ' much to do.
'We worked,: and slaved;. and fought
' • • • and won,
And .yet, our life has just begun. .
Many will leave and not return,, •
But will remerhber, what they've,
