Class Poem In a place that's remote from the city's strife Is a college we count as dear, And you not knowing, might ask us why, For if you should visit here You would not find buildings imposing nor grand, No chapel with gilded spiresg It is not ancient, well-famed in the- worldg W'hat then our esteem inspires? The teachers we find are but humble men, And their names are not acclaimed In the world for the feats that they have doneg Not many are known to fame. But although our buildings are not the peak And the pride of the architect's art, And although our teachers are humble men, You've a place, Alma Mater, in our heart. For the friends we have made and the lessons we've learned Are the ones that still will be sweet lfVhen we've done all our work and finished our task. And we gather around His feet. You have not inspired us to worldly fame, Nor taught us to cast our lot With the rich, nor the proud, nor the wise of earth, And in your halls we have sought Not the learning of Socrates, nor Croesus' wealth Has been of our learning the goal, But what's more elusive and harder to learn- The worth of a human soul. Great lives lived And we answer The class of '30 And we'll carry To follow Him And all that on But all that we And consecrate for Him are a challenge to us, with our youthg will go where He leads, the banner of Truth. may mean to leave friends earth we prize, have we give to our task, wholly our lives. The path you point out, Alma Mater, to us, Although it is narrow and straight, Is the path that we choose, and the one He has trod. It will lead all the way to the gate Of Heaven, toward which we are i'Homeward bound And this is the aim that we own, 'ATo Hnish the task He has left for us, And then all united-go home. -Gladys Dorothea Curtright lPage Thirty-threefl

lPage Thirty-fourl Class Song The soft silent vespers of even Are beckoning us to delay And ponder over our journey That's urging us on and away. NVe've spent in the halls of this College The happiest years of our life, And now as we leave its dear portals We'll meet with much turmoil and strife. And now as we leave its dear portals We'll meet with much turmoil and strife. We leave the dear scenes of our school days, The trials and victories of youthg Our hearts and our hands trained for service, XVe'll work for the triumph of truth. Go work in my fields, said the Master, The harvest time truly is hereg search out the honest souls waiting hear of a Saviour who's near. search out the honest souls waiting hear of a Saviour who's near. Go To Go To And now with our banners all flying And colors that wave as we go, A feeling of sadness comes o'er That only a Senior can know. One last fond farewell will we Emotions of joy and of pain, As we to our dear Alina Mater Say adieu in a heartfelt refrain. As we to our dear Alma Mater Say adieu in a heartfelt refrain. us render, -Maur ine Shaw
