This is a magical phrase taken from Eugene Field's famous poem, Little Boy Blue , familiar to the people throughout the world. Perhaps the reader will wonder Why we have chosen this great poet and gentleman as the theme for the 1938 Wakitan. In ex- planation, we say: The Women's Press Club of St. Joseph have undertaken to secure enough money from the nation to finance the erection of a Eugene Field memorial. This proposed me- morial vvould be placed on Lover's Lane which Eugene Field immortalized in his poem bearing the same name. Even though we have held the poet inhighest esteem through our lives, we felt that this was the correct time for a dedication to him. Field's interesting life offered many outlets for yearbook ideas. One of his diver- sified hobbies was that of extensive book collecting, thus, we have made our collection 1 of five booksz' Book of Knowledge, Book of Verse, Book for Sportsman, Book of Sharps and Flats, and Book of School Life. Citizens of our city have always been conscious of the fact that Field was a resident of St. Joseph and wrote eloquently of it. We have striven to impress this into the minds of those who have not been overly conscious of it. Some of the most important events in his life occurred during his ffesidence here g namely, his marriage to Julia Comstock, his confident and companioni f . We have tried not to deviate from the original subject matter, and we hope that this has added to the attractiveness of the theme. And so we present to you the 1938 Waki- tan with the desire that it will create interest in the subject, inspire a greater admiration for the poet, and aid the city in the erection of the memorial to so talented a man.
