' Q I . 1 The Return. . . ,, r lg? it l on I Following his yearly custom, Highline's Mr. Chips has given to the students of Highline a fresh bit of humor, philosophy, and wisdom penned after a visit to his boyhood home. Last year I made my hrst return to blessed scenes of childhood, From over thirty years, sojourn in tangled Western wildwood. To that best spot on earth, says I, I'll set me out to travelf My friends I bade a quick goodbyeg my flivver hit the gravel. v In glee I jammed the throttle down and gave Old Liz the liniitg Fond thoughts were whirling inianlfy crown full sixty miles a minuteg I headed for the rising gun enrdpt in reminiscence Of happy times forever gone in years of adolescence. Whene'er I camped upon the green and lay in my pajamas, I visioned all those byfgone scenes in pleasant panoramas. Bright flowers in their gala dress flung fragrance from the prairieg june zephyrs proffered their caress as gentle as a fairy. Each morn in haste I ate and drank and quickly packed my awningg My heart danced as I spun the crank and steered into the dawningg I conjured up those youthful joys to aged memory sacred, The swimming hole, the gang of boys and every fellow naked. Through storm and sun I hurried on, obeying youth's insistence, My trusty flivver raced along with speed cops in the distanceg One blistering day in grime and heat I reached the land of grangers, And rattled into Boyville Streetgthe town was full of strangers! I searched the byfstreets, through the mart, no gleam of recognition, The oldftime fire that warmed my heart soon lost its tense ignition, No boyhood pal to welcome me, no friend a hand to proffer, The young folks winked mischievously and said, l'Whoys that old dujjfer? Bright flowers bloomed beside the way with all their oldftime lustreg Gay birds were chattering through the day with all their wonted bluster This somehow failed to give me cheerg my soul was filled with hunger To meet the friends I held so dear in my days when I was younger. The old gangs gone and faded seer that varicolored picture, Lifes scenes must change and nothing here can long remain a jixtureg The swimming hole without the boys can never be alluring, Without the friends no earthfmade joys can ever be enduring. -CYRUS L. GILBERT.
