65111121 Glnunzel Deep in the heart of an enchanting site Stands a stone chapel, shaded by tall pines, Shedding a golden ray into the night, Filling the air with sweet and heav'nly chimes. And the night wind takes up the holy sound, Playing it on the pine-harps overhead, Reaching the heights where Seraphim abound, Soothing all souls until their trials have fled. These are the bells Our Lady hears each day, Rung from Good Counsel's ivy covered walls, Bidding the waiting world to stop, and pray, Blessing that world before the twilight falls. In the sweet shadow of this sacred place, Stands the great home where womanhood is raised High on a plane of knowledge and of grace, Up to where virtue and true worth is praised. And in this seat of learning, hall of right, Good Counsel College, lauded far and near, life jind fulfilled the hopes and ideals bright That girlhood vision held to be most dear. MAHALA C. SHERMAN

Un illeurrrnh illtlnthrr Marg Glnmpaaain When Orpheus played his lute the hrooles and trees flnd mountains bowed before his rhapsodies Enthralled. Wrhen troulradours in minstrelsy For regal lords recorded history Their tuneful melody entranced the ear Attuned on wings of song their deeds to hear. But, Reverend lWother, 'tis when you touch the leeys To liberate the captive melodies Impatient to peal forth for Him llvho gave Your touch the sweetness of your soul, that nave And chaneel ring with mystic harmony And angels poise to hear in ecstasy.
