1 MIND AND HAND. CLASS POEM-FEB., 1897. Awake! arise! the day is coine, And night ' s long shadows disappear; The bee among the garden flowers Tells that the working hour is here. The sun above the hills is high; The fields in sunny stillness lie; And the morning breeze sends a gentle quiver Through the trees that border the distant river. The meadow lark ' s bright song ascends To greet the newborn summer ' s day, Till echo trills the melody, So faint and clear, so far away. The sky is dyed in deepest blue; The grass is sparkling, wet with dew; And fragrance comes from the op ' ning flowers That grow unseen in the wayside bowers. Another day, our day, has come. The east is reddening with the light, As o ' er the misty mountain tops The sun appears upon our sight. A world is opened to our eyes — A world of light — of sunny skies. The air is sweet, and the bees are humming, Telling the time for work is coming. The day of life dawns only once ; The morning hastens into noon The midday into dusk descends, And day is done — but done too soon. While young the morning, sluggards wait; When evening comes, they wake too late. The man of action resteth never! His place in life be ours forever! Will Steinhagen. FEBRUARY CLASS, ' 97. Hippoty hippoty, hippoty ' leven, We ' re .the class of ' 97. Hurrah if -.the yellow, hurrah for the white ! Hurrah fjoc the daisy ; it ' s all right ! £T} HE February Class of ' 97 does not Avish to boast of its works, but it does feel pleased over some of the things it has done in its career. To be afeard of my de- serving were but a weak disabling of my- self. It was the first class to organize: in the 11 B. This movement caused other! classes to do likewise, and thus introduced that most desirable thing, class spirit. While yet in the 11 B it planued a reception for the graduating class, and was ably assisted by the June Class, ' 96. In the 11 A it as- sisted the 12 B Class in a reception. As 12 B ' s this class gave a very successful enter- tainment, a stereopticon lecture given by Mrs. Gibson on Some Chateaux of France. About $40 was made and put into the bank, to be added to later on. In the 12 A another entertainment was given, a concert. This proved profitable, also, and the money in the bank was doubled. With this money was purchased their preseut to the school, the two beautiful statues which now stand on the platform in the audito- rium. It was this class also which petitioned for the change, which has been made in the commencement exercises. The pleasing innovation of class-da} 7 , too, is owing to their efforts. However, these things could not have been done had it not been for the hearty and faithful co-operation of the teachers and the principal of the school. The class thanks them sincerely for their kindness, and wishes them God-speed in their noble calling. As for the class, may it bear in mind both its temporary and permanent mot- toes : ■ The secret of success is constancy of purpose. And: Action, not thought, is the end of life. .. ' . -,. ii B. H.
