The Open Road The road, the open road that lures us all Now narrow winding, now it's broad and straight As it reveals itself at steady rate As strange as if 'twere th' unwinding ball. Of fate: and now we pass a sylvan mall As smooth as if ,twere trod by fairies late A meadow lark is singing to his mate As we go by a little trickling fall And cattle ruminating, grazing, sleek Are in the meadows that are newly green As also are the goats and sheep so meek With bashful cheeks that blush when they are seen A buxom country girl goes swinging past And let the devil catch the lad that,s last. -Comido.

32 THE SCHURZONE Class Song Farewell, Schurz! Now at last falls glim'ring twilight, Shadows darken on thy walls, While apart we stand and vision, Happy times within the halls. Memory, our only solace, As we sadly turn from thee- Gently opens as a flower, Into beauty, fragrant, free. In our hearts there'll be an altar, Where respect and honor burn, Life a waft of smold'ring incense, Breathing love where'er we turn. Words by WILBUR IMas. Cruise of the Class of '22 ' It was in September, 1918, on a quiet autumnal day, brilliant with the sunshine of hope, cheer and joyous promise that the dirigible Carl Schurzf' Mr. Slocum, commander, and Mr. Pettersen, second in command, was impatiently waiting in the hangar of a new year. It was the same old dirigible that had carried many pas- sengers to a safe landing in the Land of Higher Education. But this was a gala day in its history. A Many people gazed upon it in wonder as the wisest, brightest and altogether most promising and brilliant of all classes boarded it, and it was known that they were to fly over regions new and unknown to them in a quest-for The Air Current of Perfect Understanding that they might breathe deeply of it and be'benefited thereby. 1 ,, As the dirigible began her wonderful flight that beautiful morning, the pas- sengers were enrolled and they congratulated each other on the mutual pleasure of a long companionship, together. The friendly attitude of all gave assurance of happy cruise. The passengers were naturally very enthusiastic and asked many eager ques- tions of t.he officers as to the incidents of the voyage and its probable length, and were assured that if they persevered in their duties, they should easily accomplish their purpose in four years. Their fear of disaster was entirely wiped away in the assurance that so able a staff of airmen had them in their charge. -The unaccustomed height and the change in the air pressure naturally caused some weakness and some of them were tempted to give up Algebra, Latin and other disagreeable parts of the menu, but were assured calmly but firmly that they would have to assimilate these seeming indigestibles. In They noticed at the beginning of their voyage that their range of vision, altho small, was ever increasing as the cruise became lengthened. And upon consulting the commander, they were informed that their range would ever increase if they were diligent in their duties.
