On january 2, Tim was hack again. tYou see a new year had starteclj. --CHS- Miss Clason: You can plainly see that everything we learn ties right together. john Thomas: I guess all my knots have come untierlf' THE BIG THREE Foday the world seems waiting, Our leaders have again met To argue this whole situation, And they'll solve this problem, you bet! True, there are some who will tell you Their way is the only one, But it won't be the narrow-minded That will claim the honors, when done. I smile when I pass or :mingle with Different groups from all walks of life, And there is sure to be some big shot, Always aiming to stir up strife. He'll prate and preen and glower, And paint pictures black with gloom. He'll tell you freedom is no more- We're headed for instant doom. Now lies the kind to flee from, He's poison to the soul. Lost to him is the vision of justice- The center of humanity's goal. Lift up your hearts, your spirits too, Look to the promise of love Brought by those leaders now, as of old Guided by God from above. Fear not, leave faith in humanity, As our leaders-The Big Three Are fighting to preserve all Nations- The rest is up to you and me. Q Maxine Duffell, '46 - C H S - ALL THESE THINGS To tramp o'er the hill and dale, Searching for flowerets hid near the trail, And lean against some rustic rail And hear the whistling of a quailg To hear the whispering leaves above, And know that these are all GOD's loveg To look at distant lakes and streams And see reflected YOUR hopes and dreams: To gaze from a mountain to the sea below And know beneath it green things grow, To gather leaves on a crisp fall day And know that winter's well on its wayg These things happen as seasons pass, But these memories will always last. Joan Sawyer, '47 - C H S - - Mr. Shihles fto classj: You can always tell a Harvard man. but you can't tell him much.

With it come bright glories: Flowers, grass, and sunshine, too. Spring seems to tip its hat and say, A pleasant 'hello' to you. The robins in the treetops high Flutter to and fro. They sing their happy cheerful songs To all the world below. Always our first happy glimpse Comes when the robins sing. How could we ever get along, Without you, O happy Spring? Katherine Hobbs, '47
