ALMA GRADUATES SONG ' 55 Our Alma Days are past, Grad ' s here at last, And as we bid adieu to all our friends We will recall these ivy walls, The Bell that calls us to Our work for a future bright and clear. Toujours En Avant our motto true To guide us forward all the long years through. Our memories dear, hold the thoughts Of chapel talks and candlelighting too, To cherish now and forevermore As we close the door Of dear old Alma. Tune: No Other Lo ve. MY HOME-TOWN In the haven of the bluffs it lay, My peaceful, small home-town, And stretched beyond it the sapphire bay And distant mist like a shimmering gown. And high up above in the deep blue sky, I see little snow-white clouds float by; As the sweet scented breezes come whispering roun ' I think there ' s no place like my own home town — Josephine Smith SOLUTION A dog bctrks, a cat yowls. In the tree, I hear two owls. All four make a great ado. I cannot sleep, What to do? Shut the wiiidow? Throw a shoe? I simply must stop that ado. Then a brilliant idea appears — Now I sleep — plugs in my ears. — Anonymous
