Where rustling page, and whispers low, subdued, , Scarce broke the quiet of the stately halls Which six brief months before had rendered back The echoes of a thund'ring industry. e 'Twas there our drama had its source unique. J There, there we worked and played, sorrowed, rejoiced, l Lived, moved, and had our being. Week on week , Slid by until we found ourselves advanced To sophomores. The class was organized s And class-pins then appeared. The girls, alone, A party sponsored on All-Hallows' Eve X l l Fl 1!A l if 1 l'!
