1019 CLASS BOOK TEACHERS COLLEGE III. In United War Fundf, our boat came in first, We 'irefreshedn at our party till the Sophs almost burst- Then to refill our pockets, we showed some finance, And with many a flourish, pulled off-Senior dance. IV. So since We have shone on every thing, VVe are treating ourselves to one grand final fling, The Dean will receive us to bid us Godspeed, Then a trip up the Hudson with plenty of feed. V. On class day with speeches, We show We are Witty, At the garden party, We sit and look pretty We lunch at The Plaza, and those who are able To prove they're engaged will run 'round the table. VI. And some who are not-may heed the last call And put something over, the night of the ball. But-alas there's an end to the highest of flings, We come to commence and the parting it brings. VII. VVe leave with regret and a hope-very humble, That after weire gone T. C. will not crumble. And we must come back every once in a while, Guide faculty right, and keep ,em in style.

Noble Svpnnpsis King Bela IV, King of Hungary, has called together his subjects-the Magyar nobles and freemen, and the warlike Cumanien tribesmen-for a Spring Festival, hoping not only to promote more friendly relations between them, but to secure a greater allegiance to himself. King Bela's position on the throne is insecure, because he has been crowned only with the crown of St. Stephen and not with that of Charlemagne, which has mysteriously disappeared from the Royal Treasury. CThe crowns are considered sacred by the people and during the Festival both factions pantomime a legend connected with the special crown of their alle iancej. 3 Before the festivities begin the king sends his eldest son, Prince Stephen, to ask the chiefls daughter to dance. The prince is astonished at her beauty and straightway falls in love with her, but the Cumanien maid IS seemingly indifferent. Throughout the contests it is clear that the Cumaniens and Magyars cordially hate each otherg when all eyes are on the contestants, a Cumanien archer steals from the group and takes aim at King Bela. The chiefls daughter sees him just in time to snatch the arrow from the taut bow and save the king's life. King Bela in gratitude asks the chief to give his daughter to Prince Stephen as a bride. The chief feels greatly honored, the prince and the Cumanien maid are overjoyed, and the betrothal ceremony takes place. The chief calls four of his men, who bring the ancient iron chest containing the long-lost crown of Charlemagne. King B' ' e a IS now secure on his throne, all ill-feeling between Magyars and Cumaniens is at an endg they join together in a wild Hungarian dance, ending with cries of Long Live the King! 64
