GOSHEN COLLEGE RECORD. 29 ions of life to which former ones were but guiding posts. Objectively our paths part here. For some of us the light points to the foreign mission field, for some to the rural district of our own beloved land, for some to educa- tional halls and for some to other lines of duty. For each of us a path of duty is being laid open and now, as we have been faithfully following the gleam this far, may we continue to be true to our guide and never swerve to right or left regardless of misfor- tunes, discouragements and tempta- tions. If we step aside, even to Jer- usalem, we shall waste time if not get hopelessly lost, but, if we follow the path of duty as it is being revealed, then we shall see the King. Breaking The Wreath lnez Schrock How can we leave thee How can we from thee part Thou only hast our heart, Our Alma Mater. Thou hast these lives of ours, So noble by thy powers Made true and large and rich, With treasures noble. Time ever on the wing, Now bids us in her flight To battle for the right, Far, far away. And though life 's duties call, Yet love abides with all Who truth and right exalt Unto the end. Ever loyal to this wreath, Retained in memory long, Entwined with friendship strong Glorious wreath. l No pleasures before us more bright Than those that pass from our height, Those we are leaving behind Forever gone. Soon this wreath must break, And these dear halls forsake, That we our way may take Where duty calls. Yet shall our purpose be, Strong as our elm tree, ln all things true to thee, Vlle hold so dear. The wreath is breaking apart. There rises a feeling of sorrow, For on the uncertain tomorrow Must be farewell. One to far India will sail, Others in mountain and dale, Will toil patiently on, Happy and free. Vllhen in the battles of life, Our memories turn back, No honor do they lack For nineteen thirteen. The professor of our class, No other can surpass, Always in our coming days, Our guiding star. Each flower can ne'er outlive Impressions upon it made, The price can neler be paid, For what these mean. They will lend courage bold, For us to give and not with-hold, And in all our future days To follow the gleam.

Although Mr. Yoder has actual home re- lations, the nature of which most of us have merely to conjecture upon, his been able association with others has not been neg- lected. The better one understands his life, the more genuine does his character appear. His disposition displaying great intellectual ambitions along with his characteristic energy and enthusiasm, prove him to be both willing and capable, and point out for him the possibility of a long list of useful achievements. INEZ B. SCHROCK, AB. Major. German. Middlebury, Ind. Inez has filled a bigger place in our col- lege life than one might think at first glance.
