Our kindliness of spirit. however, keeps us from telling you how lonely you will be. dear friends, when we are gone. No. Sl will not echo again to our voices lafter the bell has rungl. nor will the seats of the historic assembly room groan with their burden as when we occasionally HJ visited you.

Uber lhitieg IQ Is it strange that we should be known from Iowa to iilifconsin Z' We have prodigies in size, skill and intellect. Our motto is, veni, vidi. vici.
