Any one can tell, Up to the front, and to the right, Please to ring the bell. What do you see in the Freshman Class? Little folks in green, Downy heads and eyes of blue, Faces calm and serene. What do they do in the Freshman Class? Dream, a little work, and play, Laugh and crow, shout and grow, Jolly times have they. What do they say in the Freshman Class?

A boy, kind and tall, And his love, born above, Guides the Freshies all. --LOLA ASH.
