THE STYLUS 66, .- BROCKPORT By Ethel Jvazies. Brocliportg we're pulling anchor soon And setting out to sea, And ere the passing of another moon VVe'll say farwell to thee. , But though we sail on wider seas And stay in many Hr port, E The winds will waft with every breeze Kind thoughts to you, O, Brockport. And we who were happy at greeting VVill not be sad at farew-ell, For the best we have gained from our meeting VVe're taking-Life's storms to repel. Friend-ship and knowledge and memories, ' Memories, the gold from life's dross, Memories of our Alma Mater And the days that are gone, but not lost. ......?,,1.. , THE APPEARANCE OF OUR CAMPUS By Mild1'ed Tfnvnsend. V. I saw Brockport Normal School for the first time in the spring and the thing which impressed me most forcibly was not the imposing structure itself, but the barren appearance of the campus. Directly in front of the school building the ground was deeply furrowed wi-th automobile ruts and footprints' so that there was no oppo-rtunity for the grass to grow. The long stretch of greenwgfrass at the south makes me believe that the campus in front of the school could be made attractive. Perhaps it is not entirely the fault of the students. There is really no other place for the parking of automobiles. The school 'authorities could easily provide one by utilizing a strip of land behind the building along the f-ence which 'bounds the westward side. of the campus. This section is oue ofthe public view and since there is already a driveway it would require only a little expense and effort. The front lawn could then be graded and seeded properly. I believe that the students would then keep to the side- walks, and allow the lawn to regain its beauty. ' ' Since there is no prospect of having these things accomplished there is only one way for us to help. Preserve thelgrass and lawns which we already hav-e. We should b-e ab-le to do this very easily and I believe many students are making conscious efforts along this line.
