Gelt VALEDICTORY CC01zt1'nued from page 65 You have given of your time and thought to promoting this school. You have showed us that the making of money is not the sole aim in life which makes for permanent happiness. This school stands as a monument to your interests in youth, especially city youth, and to humanity at large. To the Faculty we turn in closing. You have taught us more than the science of agriculture. Wle will not long remember the theory of the classroom, but we will remember the hours of association we have had with you. You have taught us how to appreciate the work and beauty of nature. After all is not that the greatest accom- plishment for any teacher? The pleasant hours of association spent with you, Fellow Students, will dwell long in our minds, and will be a constant stimulus to lead true, wholesome and honor- able lives. Farewell. --QI 27 IF-'

The CLEANER yi Class Poem l' To reap a crop the seed we sow. The acorn falls for oak to grow. To build a house, founda.tion's laid. To find the fact. the theory's made. i And so with all things under sun, One thing must start before it's done. If we, God's crop, are to succeed, A germ must be in every seed. We Farm School Seeds mature have grown, ' Now into the world, are sown. It now remains for us to thrive, To grow, to keep the Germ alive. l' That Germ which only grows with toil, ' That Germ which heeds the call of soil. I 6 We Seeds now go to form a crop, ll To replace farming on the top, il On top tl1e world, and close to Heaven ll The nearer to the lilaker of, we Seeds,-- The Class of Twenty-Seven.

The week-end, single detail, and smoking rule were continued. .X new idea was put before the Senate and with the consent of the faculty Saturday mornings off were allowed to all students. Another smoking rule was passed per- mitting all Seniors to smoke pipes on the campus during week-ends. The Horticulture, Veterinary Seienee, and Poultry Clubs were organized.
