All the dear treasures love from time would save' Beauty that will not stay her hour, the grave High purposes of youth, the sudden gift And peace of loyalty, and friendship swift, To slight with one bright glance this niggard time' And laughter rising from the heart, and rhyme Like wind and water chimingg solitude, Orion in the west, the trembling brood Of Pleiades at dusk, the sacred touch Of strong familiar hands, and even such First wisdom as a child'sg labor and mirth And sleep, a wild keen fellowship with earth, And brave long pride, the goblet shared, a stress Of truth upon your word, sure gentlenessg The common light of day, and flowers in grass, Love and love's deep-slaked thirst, all things that pass And are remembered after, -These, like a fire, 'Gainst change, and joyless knowing, faint desire, And the calm, dry-eyed funeral of years, Fairer than light to earth from one lone star, Safer than tenderness, more close than fears,- All these, outshining time, I bid you keep. - 7 Remember these, whose valor has been thine, Who for a golden hour with us have fared In gladnessg these, who graciously have shared The light of their believing hour, divine, And fleeter than they knowg whose mirth is leaven To thy wisdom, who would blithely fling Their cap above a star 3 whose songs shall ring No more like challenges from earth to heaven. Be with them in the dawn surprised by grief, Through lone and hungry watches, grant them ease From rapture and from pain. O, make night brief, And in the day fling out a guarding host Along that reckless course-their winning: most In their triumphant hour, remember these.

llEfIDlIRllEM'74DlIRllD By their Record Book ye shall know them. With this thought constantly in mind We have compiled our class annals, striving to give full expression to the accomplishments of the past three years. During that time great changes have taken place. We are the last class to remember that first assembly in the fall of nineteen twenty- six, and now We, too, are leaving. It seems impos- sible that subsequent classes can learn the affec- tion and pride with Which We novv regard our school. Something of us has gone into its makingg June '29 is one of the foundation stones upon which Overbrook's future glory must rest. We offer this book as a permanent and pleasant reminder of the fourth class. N ffffwnref ae' iff-' ef-at are elif 10 Ee
