Bloomington High School, The Gothic, 1913, Page 3
| Description: |
Our New BuildingJESSE ELLIS.Its walls are made of choicest stone,Its roof is made of slate.The steps are wide and beautiful,The grandest in the state.Inside are seen such broad vast roomsAs neer were known before,And these are lined with monstrousbooks,From ceiling to the floor.And O, throughout its many parts,There is a wondrous spellThat causes students all to wishForever there to dwell.And spend their time in reading lays,That furnish wisdom rare,And give them all scholastic looksIn class or anywhere.What! You wish to see this thingWhose like youve never met?Why, thats our future high school,butWe havent got it yet.Image alt-text: Black ink drawing of the front of Bloomington High School, with trees lining the building.
