lIlil'0ClllCIiOll 3 pf HERE is no ti1ne in the history of an institution at which it is more appropriate to glance backward . L2 5 and contemplate whatuhas been accomplished than :T 4 on some important anniversary. Many things worthy it of record occur which, soon forgotten, are past recall ll 1 4 unless recorded in some permanent form. Accord- :5 1 ll ' ingly the Class of 398 have taken the opportunity to issue THE FIRST QUARTER, hoping that it may be found to be a correct history of the student life as it has existed in our Alma Mater. VVe have tried to make the historical sketches of the diilerent organizations concise, and as accurate as possible with the meager records at hand. The poems which are credited to former students have appeared from time to time in the Owl, and, with three or four exceptions, were Written while their authors were yet under-graduates. XVe wish to express our gratitude to the Faculty, and especially for the hearty co-operation of the Advisory Committee-J. H. Powers, Margaret E. Thompson, and W. E. jillson. We are indebted to many of the Alumni for their good wishes and assistance. To Mr. A. B. Show of Leland Stanford Ir. Uni- versity and to Rev. G. W.

.HlIlllVQl'Sdl'V UQ Hrlev Barthlow Show, 'sz 3 ERE, Weary, let me rest. f Through silent spaces of the upper air The mountains rise aloft into the blue, , And sunshine rich in evanescent hue fqxf Stays lingering on the hoary summits there, i I And on beyond the west 1 2 , L Old ocean beats his patient music o'er 'Gainst the rude rock, and on the melting sand Dies breathless, or recedes to some far land Seeking, but finds no rest, forevermore. It is a day for aye To live and love, yet gladly bartered here, If memory but loose her gentle wing, And mounting into yesterday new sing Of other days departed and so dear. The mountains fade away 5 'Where ocean was, a world of waving grain, Fair farinsteads, and the green of growing maize, Sunlight, and melodies the west wind plays,- D O radiant prairies I So you live again. And one, the best of all, One blessed spot where yet the world is new, Vvhere Alma Maier crowns the sloping h Fronting the world and duty g Where she ill, still V Looks east or west and knows her children true g Where still her loving call, Pealing like bells accordant, oler the land Rings clear, till all our grateful hearts arise And, homeward turning, brings her glad And filial greeting, and the warm right hand. Visions on visions grow. Here, where the dreams of high-aspiring youth, Daring all noble deeds, began to be, And love awoke and, like a panoply Of knightly honor, clad the soul in truth,- Here like sweet waters How All freshly by dear memories of joy In books and noble thoughts, and suddei Hallow the friendships of forgotton years Too good to die, 'coo pure to know alloy. 6 surprise, 1 I .SSN I f U19 tl f V fl!
