Farewell Farewell to you, old Washington. Dear place of labor, tears, and fun. Where all have gathered, big and small, Inspired by your urgent call. Our hearts beat faster when we think, That with your passing, every link With memories of your jollity, Will have no more reality. In spite of all the dirt and noise, You hold the souls of girls and boys. Here many fathers, granddads too, Learned their lessons long and true. Cherished, friendly old gray stone, We loathe to leave you there alone. You'll hold our hearts for years to come. Farewell to you, our Washington. -Doris Smith '35 Things We Could Do Without Lymie Benton's imitation of a bag pipe Mary L. Shil1inglaw's baby talk and lip stick The P.
