ALMA MATER (With apologies to Brown University) Alma mater, we hail thee with loyal devotion. And bring to thine altar our ofFring of praise; Our hearts swell within us with joyful emotion, W hen Pawling’s renown in loud chorus we raise. The happiest moments of youth's fleeting hours W e’ve pased 'neath the shade of these time-honored walls. And sorrows as transient as April’s brief showers Have clouded the glory of Pawling’s dear halls. And when life’s golden autumn with winter is blending. And brows, now so radiant, are furrowed with care; When the blightings of age on our heads are descending. W ith no early friends all our sorrows to share— Oh! then as in memory backward we wander. And roam the long vista of past years adown, On the scenes of our student life often we’ll ponder. And smile as we murmur old Pawling’s renown. (7)

FOREWORD TIIK name of our year book, Thk Scroll, can convey little intelligence to its readers, if it is merely a record of such data and statistics as the past year has afforded. If there is any real significance in the word school- life. the leading feature must be not so much what we have done, as how we have done it: not what is the measure of the present, but in what degree does the pres- ent represent a growth—a growth in stability and firmness of purpose, a growth toward a wider horizon and higher standard of character. Without the slightest discredit to our predecessors, we firmly believe that the past year has brought the Pawling School to a point of superiority over previous years, just as we hope that next year will reveal a similar expansion beyond our present status. The editors of The Scroll for 1910 have sought in some measure to lay less emphasis upon the trivial phases, and more upon the definite facts, of school life. hile we have had our defeats in athletic contests, our problems in our social relations, our penalties for scholastic deficiency, we believe that all these arc more than offset by a higher standard in sportsmanship, a purer tone in fellowship, and an increasing sense of honor in scholarship. As growth is impossible without a due proportion of sunshine and rainfall, so no record of our school-life can be faithful to facts if we emphasize only the frown of dignity, and neglect the beam of humor. Such personal touches and humorous attempts as have been sub- mitted are designed rather as a relief from the cold data of facts, than an attempt to cast ridicule upon any of our fellows. It is a source of gratification that the Class of 1910 have the privilege of dedicating their annual to the man whose generosity has provided a material set- ting for the further nurture of the spirit that inspires the Pawling School—Mr. George B. Cluett. That this spirit owes its inception to our beloved head master is a fact so well known by all the friends of the Pawling School that no further comment is necessary. On behalf of the editors, we desire to extend our grateful acknowledgment to Mr. J. F. Macklin and to Dr. Kendall for their invaluable assistance. Like- wise to the editors of The Scroll for 1909 and 1908. we would express our ap- preciation for the superior models their respective editions have given us. ( )
