The J jb ra ry | Added Lines to Hiawatha] Should you ask me where the pupils Go straight to the Readers' Guide— Of the School of Science gather, That points out the page and chapter. When they seek the words of wisdom, That will tell you magic stories When they seek the books of knowledge? Men of recent times are telling: I should answer, I should tell you, Come with me into the building. To the tallest, biggest structure On the School of Science campus. To the north side of this building, Where the Northwest wind Kecwaydin, And the North, Kabibonokka, Play around the window sashes.” Here one day a maiden Cometh, Said her life was not worth living. For she could not give the answers When her teachers asked her questions. Then an older maiden answered: Many moons have I been coming To the book-room of the students. Wondrous things I’ve found within it, All about the Jap: Who can’t have the isle of Yap; When the airplanes like to race; Einstein's idea of time and space; How the doctors change a face; 1 low to sew and to bake; I low to use the garden rake; How Betelgucusc can be measured; How the radium grains arc treasured; Doings of the world and nation; Banks and trade and recreation; Church and school and picture plays; Printing-press and poets’ lays; Should, perchance, your search prove fruitless. Ask the one who tends the store-house. She, the symbols, will interpret.” Who’s Who books, fine books for reference. Then the maidens and their brothers Where the names of braves are listed And the deeds they have performed.” Tell me,” said the sad maid, tell me. May I once again be happy, May I find those facts of history And statistics that so haunt me?” Yes, indeed,” her sister told her. You’ll find many things besides these If you do as I direct you. From the prairies and the forests, From the land of the Dakota’s, From the Minnehaha country. All were glad that valued treasure. Giving them much greater power, Giving them much greater pleasure, Could be theirs just for the asking, Could be theirs if they would take it. —Miss Mirick I’AOH TWKNTY-THKKE
