EASTONIAN 1935 A friend once said to me: l would rather take in washing than teach school. Had he known the joy of directing the lives of young people or the vivid memories of years of pleasant associations with high school pupils, or the cherished thought that he may have made their lives fuller and happier, my friend would not have looked so scornfully on the World's noblest profession, JOHN R.

EASTONIAN 1933 TQ A NEW I-HGH SCI-IOCDI. AUDITORIUM Hall of dreams, you welcome us at last With open arms so hospitably vast As would encompass all our restless youth ln quest of wisdom, pleasure, beauty, truth. The visioned artist hung the chambered shells Of the nautilus to cast their magic spells, Inspiring all who seek the higher goal To build more stately mansions for the soul. Here may the voice of prayer like incense rise Upon a thousand altars to the skies: May praises to the Father here impart A grateful hallelujah to the heart. 'Tis yours to be a forum where are taught The arts of noble speech and subtle thought, But more, where loyalty becomes a chain Of golden links that hold through loss or gain. Upon this stage may come a youthful star Who, rising, sheds his Thespian glory far, But homing from the land of palms or pines Will bless the boards where nrst he spoke his lines. Here may a Hamlet pour out all his grief And sweet Ophelia may find relief: Here may a Shylock whet his bitter blade Which Portia the learned doctor stayed. Perchance some timid youth with silver throat May here achieve his first clear, liquid note, Emboldened now, he joins the chorus choir Or earns the skill to touch the Orphic lyre. Hall of dreams, we dedicate your space To lift the eager youthhood of the race: To them we give our faith, our hope, our heart, Praying that each may choose Iz'fe's better part. -C. H. NOWLIN. 1191
