-"Great captains, with their guns and

The kindly, earnest, brave, foreseeing

HAVE you ever wanted to meet a
"man of the ages," one existing
only in books and in the minds and
hearts of the people of this genera-
tion? This inclination is not a fancv
which will soon fade away to become
an obsession, for a thought like this
penetrates into one's mind until it
becomes a torment. Ever since the
dav I realized the importance of a
history book I have admired one of
the truly great men, Abraham Lin-
coln. He fought to preserve the Un-
ion for which we are now fighting:
he considered the necessity of prov-
ing that popular government is not
an absurdity. Had not it been for his
tragic death, he would have lived to
see his dreams materialized. For it
seems he'was sacrificed during the
time his services were most needed.
If he had lived, what would have
been his desires for this country, and
how could such a seemingly unattain-
able goal be reached? Question upon
question-could they be answered?
They were, or at least, my mind un-
derstood to a greater extent this
statesman, whose hands had helped to
tie together the bonds of a broken
nation. N
About sunset one afternoon. I lay
on my bed letting my eyes wander to
the ceiling. At my first glance I saw
a rough place in the yellow-lined
iwallpaper, caused from the damp
weather, but as I continued to stare,
my eyes focussed upon something en-
wtirely different. The rough place
gradually formed into a huge hill,
and the lines were paths leading to
the top. To my surprise, I was
.ascending one of these paths toward
aitall, lean, angular man, who seemed
to appear from nowhere and walk in
Twenty-Iwo. x
my direction. Upon reaching me, he
gently took my hand, and we started
walking to the top, which seemed so
far away in the distance. I looked up
and completely observed my compan-
ion. He wore tails and his face was
lean, with many small lines: his hair
was 'tousled by the wind. When I
finally caught my breath I asked-
"And so at last I meet you, Mr.
Lincoln? I have come a long way."
He nodded with a smile, and that
smile transformed his face into one
of kindliness, sincerity, honesty, and
wisdom! His voice, when he spoke,
was not shrill, but low and calm.
"Yes, my dear, you have come
from a world of war. Oh! will there
never cease to be wars! My memory
recalls another war. One night many
years ago I stood by a window look-
ing out at the soldiers marching
home, tired and worn. That moment
I wanted dreadfully to be a young
man again, reading law by pitchpine
light with friendliness of the people
around me. But Tim waits for no
man as its passes sp edily on. Soon
I was no longer called "Abe Lincoln
of Illinois," but 'President Lincoln."
Then out of the stillness of the dawn,
cannons boomed, and soldiers march-
ed away to fight. These soldiers
fought to vindicate the principles of
self-government. They knew in their
hearts that the conflict would be a
lasting one. They fought and died!
Homes were broken, leaving only the
weeping families! The thing I was
forced to do was right, yet it troubled
me to the end. .
" 'All persons held as slaves within
such designated states and parts of
states are, and hence forward shall
be free! '
"But the land had to be free: the
North and South had to be free.
These soldiers below my window
slunk homeward, doubting victory.
My heart felt for the South, and I
longed for it to emerge from the
deep dark depths of oblivion to hold
its head up again. It has been a long,
hard struggle, but it overcame this
obstacle. My wishes were carried out
indirecuy by the leaders who 'fol-
lowed in my footsteps. '
"Again to-day a dark cloud has
passed over as war emerged from
selfishness and desire for power on
-the part of so many people. The re-
maining people fought because they
wanted to protect something dear
to them. That something' needs no
. ' ' . V,-xi, I. .fxgix-fz, ,ay
...y.v.
explanation, K for the' simple Word,
freedom, means so much in itself.
The names of Bull Run, Gettysburg,
Vicksburg, Appomattox, shall always
ring in my ears as Tarawa, Iwo Jima,
Guam, D-Day, Guadalcanal, shall
ring in yours. Yet, in our hearts we
know- .
" 'That, these dead shall not have
died in vaing that this nation under
God, shall have a new birth of free-
dom, and that the government of the
people, by the people, for the people,
shall not perish from this earth? 5'
As though some unseen hand had
dismissed me, I slowly descended the
hillside, and at the bottom I turned
and looked up for one last glimpse of
this "man of the ages," ,who gave
such a clear conception of the pres-
ent. He waved when he saw me glance
back, and as quickly as he had come
he disappeared, for I was staring at
the yellow-lined wallpaper on the
ceiling. I did meet him, though, if
only in adream!
Lenore Monnot '45,

ON that first day of my Senior A
term, I woke with only one
thought: I was finally on the last
lap of my Senior year. To think that
in only a little over four months I
should be graduating was almost too
much. I sank back on my pillow to
enjoy the deliciousness of contempla-
tion, only to be interrupted a few
minutes later by the sound of Moth-
er's voice asking, "Are you never
going to get up?" I was so excited I
could scarcely dressy but the clock
ticked menacingly 'on, and I knew
that I must not be late on this of all
days. V
My arrival at the school was
greeted byfa chorus of voices, Senior
A voices, welcoming others and my-
self into their smug, complacent
group. Four years had taken its toll
and those who were left had won
their places as Seniors with "blood,
sweat, and tears." We had at last
reached the top and. quite naturally
expected all to wonder at the marvel-
ous new Seniors. But those' other
students of lower rank, walked right'
by, quite happily oblivious of our
thrilling status, not realizing that
our joy could not be drowned by
their ignoring- us. ' ' '-
