v.ig. THREE FLAGS By LOUISE KINGSLEY That on the left- . Of blue, maroon, and white- That's the Regimental Flag, Three colors of five schools, A gay background For the Winged eagle, The strong, stern emblem Of the Cadet Corps. Mothers, fathers, sweethearts Watch that Flag pass by, Straining their eyes to see the one- Whether lieutenant, major, or fi1e-close- Who is to them the spirit of the whole, Marcluing so rhythmically In column blue. That on the right With streamers gay- On each the name of some line Company- That's the coveted prize, The end and outcome of it all. A year's hard Work and steady drill Finds rich reward In carrying back, 'Mid shouts and cheers and Wild uproar, That Flag that marks the best of all, Of all the schools the winner! In the center, over all, The Stars and Stripes! Silent we stand- Attention! when that Flag goes by- Men with heads bare, And soldiers at salute, Under that Flag Our brothers died for freedom, And We live in liberty and peace.
