A LOOK INTO rHE FUTURE. TuxE : My Old New Hampshire Homestead. Many years have passed since we have been together ; Many years ago we parted — friends and I — From our school-mates ; and to know them was to love tlicin To these we said a sad and last good-bye. We clung to one another as we parted, And hopefully we said we ' d meet some day ; But alas ! we never more can be united In the dear old Farmville Normal, far away. REFE.ilN : Now the school-girls linger there, And the da} ' S are just as fair, In the places where together we would roam ; But they know us now no more ; We ' d be strangers at the door Of our dear old Farmville Normal, far awav. In ray dreams, by the School last niglit I wandered, And I thought I saw my class-mates by my side ; Once again, then, we laughed and talked together— Once again we promised we would true abide ; And, as I stopped to greet each one, I ' wakened ; I called my friends, but they had gone to stay. In my vision I had seen them all so happy. In the dear old Farmville Normal, far awav.

Chorus : Out in the world to roam, Out in the world to roam, And to-night we go from Alma Mater, Out in the world to roam. We can carry our hard-earned sheep.skins With us where ' er our home, For tonight we go from Alma Mater, Out in the world to roam. Chorus. On our lips the woi-ds may quiver, In our eyes the tears may come, For tonight we go from Alma Mater, Out in the world to roam. Chorus.
