PARTING DAYS In years gone by in Tarboro High, The memories of the good old times, We've strived to do our best; Will linger in our hearts; We've done our work and made our sighs, They'll always be like golden chimes, But only like the rest. Ringing for us who depart. We've come to the end of our high school Into a new world we will start days, Our hearts are filled with pride The ones we hold so dear; Knowing that if we do our part, And as we begin to start on our way, God will be at our side. We pause to shed a tear. —Farmer Cullom. Grade Mothers MRS. CARTER DARROW MRS. E. A.
