May the peace of lapping waters, T11-C peace of scented pine trees The peace of the still starlight, Be with -ns through the night. The Lone pine The one tree that l can see in my mind whenever l think of trees is an old and very rugged pine. lt reminds me of a man who is old in the ways of the world' and who stands up for his rights without the assistance of anyone. This pine has grown without any others near. lt has not grown straight and tall, but has spread out in all directions because it has had no other trees to compete with for sunlight, as the power of man has influenced the world. , A river is to this tree as the passing mob of people is to a man. The river has tried to tear the pine down and carry it away as the mob of jealous people do to man: P The pine has had to put up a mighty battle with the winds, like the temptations of human life have had to be 'fought against by man. Part of its roots have been broken during the yearsg but its growth continues vigorously as man should, if he is to gain something from life. The tree is a sentinel of time as man is, who has lived a full life. A -HARVEY SMITH, '32 -...,f,,...- A TREE--SEMBLANCE OF HOIPE We gaze with awe at the beautiful tree, tall and majesticg but how tired our necks soon become. lt is the little tree-not so beautiful perhaps, maybe even a little bent-that carries that familiar air of intimacy. Here it is at the base of this glamous deprived tree that the vines start twining, the bonds which will hold and strengthen. When the little tree grows to a height of splendor, if indeed it does, then folks will put kinks in their necks looking and wondering . . . but if, alas, it never reaches the height sublime it will still be the semblance of hope and desire to attain. -ALICE VVIHITE, '3Z. Fifty-two
