c lma TOaler. Here ' s to thee oh Alma Mater. Mother who hath us inspired. Fount that gave us of thy knowledge. Breathing blessings we desired, Books al one thou hast not taught us But of grander things that are, Inspired the dust in which God wrought us With ideals the world can ' t mar. By example thou hast taught us How the path of truth to find. Teaching heart and soul to serve us With the fullness of our mind. Ever as thou dost grow older May each daughter purer be, Take her life and mayst thou mould her And thus direct her destiuy. Tho ' our nest is full of thorns Protected by thy downy breast In sweet Elysium, no thought of harms, Lay we down, serene, to rest. Thou has nurtured through our girlhood And we would not grieve the heart Which so kind and loving stood In the days so set apart. Tho ' from thee we may be severed Ever is thy presence near Telling how thou hast endeavored To make thy child a worthy Pee r. As we leap from off thy pinions May we catch a vision clear, And learn to soar to brighter regions While shrouded in thy banner dear. Forward! Now in the pathway, Gone all doubt or thought of fear We are going where thou leadest Glorious Alma Mater Dear! E. K. ' 14.
