CLASS ODE
Tune: Londonderry Air
We've sailed through many seas in search of wisdom's pearl, With pilots wise to chart for us our course; We now with hopeful hearts must let our snowy sails unfurl And journey on to seek for truth's pure source.
We cannot know the harbors lying clear and blue , Or whether storms will come or sunshine bright. We may be captains or just lowly members of the crew, Or some may go ashore to tend the light.
Chorus
We now must set our sails toward waters wild and deep, To meet the storms and ever-changing tide; And to a star our life's true course we'll ever keep, That in the end we may in harbor safe abide.

Come has the time when from Bates School we must part Leaving behind all with a saddened heart
Teachers, so true, who have helped us on our way
To them we also say our fond farewell to-day.
Dear Bates School-Our Bates School May your Memory always stay
And may your spirit guide us always on our way.
Gone are the days we have spent at Dear Old Bates
Time leads us on and Memorial High awaits
Both boys and girls-we trust that they will be
A credit to the Bates School and its Faculty.
We're marching -Yes, ONWARD
To enter other gates
Our thoughts will oft return
Down Memory's Lane to Bates.

CLASS SONG
I
Goodbye, Pratt Free and classmates too, Farewell, these scenes so dear It grieves us now to break these ties As parting time draws near. Two years have brought us many joys-
- Rich blessings every day And memories that will long remain Though we are far away.
Chorus
Then, here's a fond farewell, Pratt Free. And here's a parting sigh, And may there be sweet memories As future years go by.
II
Sometimes we've had perplexing tasks And lessons hard to learn; Sometimes the way's been steep and rough, We knew not how to turn; But Pratt Free years are past and gone And kind have been the Fates, For somehow we have struggled through And now we're graduates.

REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF POLICE
To the Honorable Board of Selectmen.
Gentlemen :
I hereby submit the Twenty-seventh annual report and detailed statement of duties performed by the Police De- partment of the Town of Middleborough, for the fiscal year ending December 31st., 1935.
The work on the new Police Headquarters has been start- ed and will be finished by June 1st., 1936. The new quarters will be a great help to the Department to do efficient work.
I recommend that a cruiser car equipped with a radio, would be a great help to the department, as already several cars in other towns and cities have these radios, and are hooked up with the State Police broadcast.
