t I Poem Lax k up, look forth, and on! There's light in the dawning sky; The clouds are parting, the night is gone; Prepare for the work of the day! Fallow thy pastures lie, And far thy shepherds stray. And the fields of thy vast domain Are waiting for purer seed Of knowledge, desire, and deed. For keener sunshine and mellower rain! But keep thy garments pure; Pluck them hack, with the old disdain. From touch of the hands that stain! So shall thy strength endure. Transmute into good the gold of Gain, Compel to beauty thy ruder powers. Till the bounty of coming hours Shall plant, on thy fields apart. With the oak of Toil, the rose of Art! Be watchful, and keep us so; lie strong, and fear no foe; lie just, and the world shall know! With the same love love us, as we give; And the day shall never come, That finds us weak or dumb To join and smite and cry In the great task, for thee to die, And the greater task, for thee to live!

The Staff The Cedrus Staff of 1924-25 began the arduous task of producing an up to date college annual, in fear and trembling. As a staff we confessed our inexperience. But with a will to be «if real service to our Alma Mater we ac- cepted the task shunned by many and courted by none, and we hope that our efforts have not been in vain. Thru our work on this book we have learned many valuable lessons in patience, persistence, endurance and long suffering. If however, this book in any true sense meets the real needs and measures up to the ideal of our college we the staff of 1924-25 arc well repaid for every effort ex- pended. G. LaClhde Makklh.
