A THE BURTONIAN 49 WORK ON GROUNDS ADVANCING Each year, during the past several, the Alumni Association has endeavored to do some work on the grounds of the Seminary, in line with the grounds plan prepared several years ago by A Phelps Wyman Considerable has been accomplished During the summer of 1930 the grounds surrounding the tennis courts and in back of the maui building were suitably graded so as to make a better space for the parking of automobiles and also to add to the attractiveness of the entire grounds and give a better setting to the courts For many years much trouble had been experienced with the walk down the hill Being of gravel it wa.s badly washed by each heavy storm and although much time and effort were spent on it it was seldom in good condition The Alumni Association as part of its 1930 program of lmprove ment decided to have stone gutters built along each side of this walk This piece of work has been very eiective and has cured an evil of many years standing OH MOON By Gould Grimth Oh moon I wonder what you are Up there in the sky so far If I could take you down and see I wonder Just what you would be Are you another world like ours Filled with animals and flowers? Are you a lantern in the sky Whose burning flame will never die Are you of all the stars the best Or maybe mother of the rest Or are you just a great big piece Of common ordinary cheese? as ,tb gf' -23' fa'
