THE BLUE AND THE GOLD The elm tree ' s shadow lingers Upon the quiet walls, Or radiant beams from lighted crest Upon the darkness falls. North Park! We bring thee homage, Thy beauties we behold. All hail to thee, dear N. P. C. The glorious Blue and Gold. Thy spires rise toward heaven To pierce the clouds of night, And she abroad in every clime Knowledge, truth and light. North Park! We bring thee homage . For a spirit free and bold. We ' re tue to thee, dear N. P. C. The glorious Blue and Gold. As oft ' we ' ll turn to wander Through mem ' ry ' s golden halls, We ' ll walk again with joyful tread Within the ivied walls. North Park! We bring thee homage; We ' ll praise through ages old The symbol of the brave and true, The glorious Blue and Gold. - HERBERT JOHNSON, ' 27 VAKSITY SONG Hail to our Alma Mater! Hail to the Varsity! Hail to the Blue and Gold, boys, Cheer it to Victory — Rah! Rah! Rah! Go now, you Gold; go now, you Blue; Fight on to victory, send that ball through — Rah! Rah! Rah! Fight for the honor of our dear school And show the rest, boys. That North Park will rule!

STUDENT NURSES Opportunities for nurses ' train- ing are ottered at two Chicago hos- pitals which are both affiliated with North Park College, and are located on the North side of Chicago within a short distance of the school. The first, Swedish Covenant Hospital is owned and controlled by the Evan- gelical Mission Covenant Church of America. Since its organization, the hospital and the school of nursing have sought to maintain the Chris- tian principles and policies upon which it was founded. Second, the Ravenswood Hospital School of Nursing, though not directly affili- ated with the Mission Covenant Church is served by North Park fac- ulty and makes use of its science facilities. Many students, upon the com- pletion of the freshman year on the North Park campus, enter into the nurses ' training curriculum offered at one of these two outstanding hos- pitals. The increasing need for reg- istered nurses offers many career op- portunities for interested girls. Student nurses are always wel- come at the college-sponsored social activities Among these are parties on the campus, football and basket- ball games during the fall and win- ter months. Spring finds college baseball in the spotlight at nearby River Park. Both schools set up their own student organizations which function to promote cooperation and individ- ual responsibility, much the same as the typical college campus.
