How ont-hunting. how vntruncingg Gently pvlting, oh how melting, Wondrous. hezlutioug snow! Swirling, whirling, ever twirling, Flying t-Iouds of snowg t'ov'rmg vnles, and sightless ridges, Wliei ei' the 1-risp young wind doth blow. Aye. let it snow, let it blow, Transform the murky, dreary colors, With the soft, pure white snow- Clizinge the drabness of the landscape. Snow, I tell thee, snow and blow, Truustigure. pray, the living bareness, XK'ith thy soft and noisvlt-ss puttt-r. All-caressing snow. ,- ng, , DID YOU? ay st-Ioan I ne-ver saw u little bird Without its song of cheer: I never saw 21 tender flower Without bright color clear. I never saw a rippling stream That did not gently flow. I never saw a butterfly, llut that it cheered me, O! I nt-vt-r saw :I field of grass Without refreshing dew- I neva-r saw 11 tiny ant Without its work to do. I ne-vf-r saw the evening Bun In :ill its splendor Set- I'pon :ill those phenomena Without, it seems, regret.

'l'lil'I CIIIICANICIQ sane action. VVe ought to be prepared now to cope with next year's prob- lems, since we have seen what there is to be looked out for. But enough of this. The Senior class has not been entirely unsuccessful. It has ex- celled in many ways and set us an example that will not be easy to follow. Although collectively the present graduating class cannot boast of a shining record, individually, the class has established a mark that is in- deed enviable. In individual effort in scholarship and industrial work it has excelled, and on one can say that the Senior class has failed when it came to putting across anything that was symbolic of it. Well, fellows, the year is spent, good or bad, and soon all that we have gone through will be history, and much of its trials and disappointments will have lost their sting. We can, however, immediately profit by them. Letfs do so. In parting with our companions, let us give them assurance that we have stopped being children and are mature. Let us impress the faculty With the fact that we are trustworthy and dependable, and they, I am sure, will see to it that we get the moat of our last year in school. We have big improvements to institute next year, and we need the best that is in every Junior and Freshman to carry them through. Our fond dreams of a practical working student council are rapidly taking shape, and it will need every bit of support that you can give it. Seniors, in our last farewell we have but one more thought to give you. Many of you are using Farm School as a stepping stone to a higher educationf although you all should indulge in further education, whether it -be in systematized form or notl, and in your travels you will probably come across the same diificulties on a larger scale that you have encoun- tered here. We, the under-classmen, cherish the hope that your experi- ence at Farm School will make easier those difficulties. As alumni, We hope that you will preserve your interest in us by giving us, in spirit, at least, a helping hand in our task of attaining the success you most as- suredly would have attained had circumstances been different.

'VHIG GI.l'IANlQIt By R. REGELSON Beneath those stately maples, Where gathered the shadows at I felt a song sweep over me, Express it in words, I must. dusk, The little post oiiice At the foot of the road, Where many a woo-er Hand-in-hand hath strode- To view the brilliant orb Descend beyond the hillg To press each other's hand- By one another thrilled. Often, I sought that spot, When sorely in need of rest, There, in the soothing shadows, To forget thoughts that oppressed. Sometimes the moonlight called And I sat there aloneg Seeing in shifting darkness, Visions that were my own. Now that I must leave thee, And from my friends departg Fondest be the memories, Companions in my heart. - 0 WILLIAM SHORR The Gleaner Staff, Cparticularly the editorl is grateful for the valuable assistance of William Shorr in typing and correcting the manuscripts during the past year, and take ths opportunity to sincerely thank him for his as sistance.
