The Blue and Gold - 1917 yearbook cover for Linden Lake High School
Scanned text:
THE BLUE AND GOLD. '17. ory. My fastidious manner I bequeath to Edythe Rowe. Now comes the one thing hard to part with. To our successors we must leave our places in the hearts and thoughts of our principal and teachers. We trust that the Class of 1918 will appreciate this as deeply as we have done and that it may be their most precious possession. Should any of our valuables been overlooked in this important document, we appoint the following committee, Lloyd Singlaub, James Riddle and Antoinette Norum, whose thoroughness in all things is noteworthy, to dispose of them in a way that their most excellent judgment deems best. In witness whereof, we, the Class of 1917, have to this our will set our hand and seal, 3rd day of May, Anno Domini, one thousand nine hundred and seventeen. Members of the Class of 1917. Witnesses: Lorna I. Barbeau. Stewart R. Conant. MEMORIAL FROM THE CLASS OF 1917. Dorice Pascoe. When the Class of 1917 entered upon its high school career, war was unthought of by the vast majority of the American people. and peace was universal. Patriotism demanded, it is true, a fair development along industrial and intellectual lines, but there was no special test of national devotion. Now, however, the dreadful scourge of war has come to our country and the spirit of patriotism demands the shouldering of arms and the manning of battleships, for we believe our cause is just. In this critical period it is for us to act the part of loyal citizens. Not all of us can win fame and glory on the battlefield as soldiers and Red Cross nurses, but each one must assume the responsibility of doing his part. This may pass unnoticed, but allegiance to our nation demands that each individual perform his duty faithfully. As a class we have developed a great loyalty to our school, a pride in our state and its institutions, a patriotic devotion to our own United States and its 'emblems of purity and liberty. therefore. as an expression of gratitude to the school in which we learned our first formal lessons of good citizenship. we present to our Alma Mater "The Starsand Stripes" that others may better learn the lessons we have learned. May the Stars and Stripes be unfurled on land and sea proclaiming liberty and union to all mankind. To those students who succeed us we will say: "Ever be loyal to our school to our State, and our nation. Remembering that to maintain liberty and equal opportunity for all. requires that each one shall accept obligations and responsibilities, that must be faithfully discharged." "I pledge allegiance to my flag and the republic for which it stands, one nation indivisible with liberty and justice for all." (The above pledge is to be given by the class in concert, saluting the flag.) SENIOR CLASS SONG. Tune "Aloha Oe." Now the class of nineteen-seventeen Must bid you all a fond farewell. We must travel o'er life's boundless stream In what paths we know not, and we cannot tell: 2. When the years go swiftly on their course And we must battle with the world. We will ever try to be a force When we think of the motto we've unfurled. 3. The time has come for us to part And leave the life we love so well. To our High School friends and patrons here We bid you all a last and fond farewell. 4. Chorus. Farewell to thee, our classmates dear, Our school days now have quickly passed away. We face the world without a fear But oft we'll recall this day. —W. H.
