,!■ ge c Rew %p ' Memory is like moonlight, the reflection of brighter rays from an object no longer seen. r N the 1930 Swastika, we have tried to picture life at Catawba as it really is. If, when many years have passed and the goal toward which you are aiming comes nearer, you may then look back upon today, which will then be yesterday, and recall the hours of work and pleasure spent within these halls. If this record serves to recall and keep alive for you those memories so dear to the hearts of all Catawba ' s children, then our purpose in having edited this volume of the Swastika will have been accomplished.

2 I CpIAU S Theirs the wealth of all the forests, all the splendor of the hills, All the mystery of sunsets, all the night birds ' hoots and trills; Theirs the trackless fens and mountains, theirs the courage none can break. Ancient Indians — they had daring, knew the ways of man and beast, Mastered all the threats of nature, and, as they mastered, still increased, Mel the white man ' s lore and magic, but, dying, could death still withstand Till their son and ours, triumphant, sits o ' er the Senaie of our land. Catawba Indians, learn the lesson of the centuries passed away; While the strength of youth is in us, let no false lure us betray. Ours the paths of lore and learning, we can tread them to the end; Ours the ways of men to study, ours God as well as man for friend. Forests, mountains, lakes, and valleys, dawn and sunsets, moon-white nights All the wealth of life and learning — these may be ours and God. invites; Lift our faces to the sunrise, catch dawn ' s scent and start the stride — Free, courageous, and untiring — with faith and wisdom for our guide. —B.B.L. 1372 [5]
