Though from our school we hate to part, There is a gladness tcause wetre through And Tom us lies a life quite new. Of all this yearts astounding work, Of Shakespeare, Milton, Chaucer, Burke, Of Latin, German, History, Of Spanish, French, and Chemistry, We Will not speak; wetve only just Removed their disconcerting dust. Of actions in and tbout the school, Since our way came the right to rule, ,Twere better that you all refer T0 ande'rn page, the Calendar. HOWARD LAWLESS, 14. Page Fourteen

Did much, we fear, our girls to scare For all us ttfellers sure got on To what makes beautyethis aintt con. The darkness fell on Auburn sweet; The weary Christiants patient feet Trod the tortuous narrow way, As we ourselves, from day to day. Good Doctor Primrose, shepherd true, Described his life, of comforts few; Then Tam 0' Shanter raced his mare Thorough the misty midnight air; The Chillon captive, Ivanhoe, And Johnson, soon we came to know. HThere was an ancient mariner, And Lorna, with her John Ridd, Sir; And then the little maid of Devon Who ever answered, We are seven? On January ninth at morn Excitement great our way was borne; You see it came about this way, Our school caught fire upon that day. They rang the bell; we all filed out, The most in wonder whafs about; But oh! the horror in our looks, When told the fuel was Latin books! Though really itwas a funny sight To see the Seniors in their might charrying pails of water bright. The engines came with lots of noise; They dragged a hose in through the boys. But Cap yelled out, ttMen, shut ter off; I put it out with my little cough. The cops came after all was cinched; Page Thirteen Jiggel's, fellows, the house is pinched. Thus did we prove to our desire How brave we stand up under lire. The A-B dance, the Red Corn Feast, Arrived and fied; while winter ceased Its sway, and gentle spring assumed Her place, and soft her song she crooned, Whereat uThe heart with rapture thrills And dances with the daffodils? Ourselves we found the ruling powers, T0 Seniors raised m the school was ours. 'Twas here at last, the day of grace Ton Which our class took up the mace, Affairs of school to supervise, To have some fun While looking Wise. Itts surely been just one grand rush With sometimes planks and sometimes plush, But imid the hurly-burly strife, Wetve had the time of our young life; While making ready for the rough, Unyielding life of sterner stuff That lies before us, dark, unknown, Where earnest labor gains a throne. The handclasp and the hugging der, We gayly stepped within the door, For this, our last at Walnut Hills, Had lost the terrors and the thrills 0f Freshman year, but found instead A love of school unmixed With dread; And yet down deep in every heart
