and short-comings, but the head and not the heart went astray. You will pardon our faults and praise our excellencies. XVe have not worked for reward, save that which comes from a consciousness of duty well done. XVe have aimed to honor not ourselves but our Alma Mater. She has given us much more than we can ever repay, but we have gathered the best of our store and given it freely and willingly. The years come and go, youth passes into manhood, manhood into old age, and e'er the silvcr cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cisternf' man returns in memory to the days of his youth. In those days perchance he will open this volume and in spirit live again the friendships at Miller. Once more he will roam beneath her trees, 'Mid lawns so green and cool,', and join his voice to those long since joined to the Choir Invisible, and the hills and the valleys will listen as they sing- Here's to Miller School forever! Peerless may she beg Time nor Change shall sever Our love and loyalty. Once more he will hear the whistle blow and the mighty struggle for supremacy on the gridiron has begun, while loyal sons and daughters make the woods resound with the Nine Rah's. Once more Miller's nine has gathered on the diamond to the air of Dixie - . Oh, play away old Millerg play ball, play ball, Be on your taps, look out for naps, And hold down well your bases. Once more he -will see Maroon and Blue floating proudly from the top of the flag-- pole and on ail sides will rise in one grand union of voices- ' Every school in old Virginia Has its pennant bright and fair. Now, here's to the Maroon and Blue ! To our colors we'Il be true, For of all the flags, Our Miller Hag's the best. 6 -1 49 17?-1-'

A 4' B puts Miss Mabelle first in the list of graduates of 1904, but she would still be first if her name began with a HQ. You just ought to know this little girl, she is simply great. On Sundays she is a vision. She came to Miller School in YQ7 from Charlottesville - and was promoted each year until last June saw her a full graduate of M. S. At present she is taking a special course and assisting at her Alma Mater. She refuses to say what she will do next year, but if she follows her motto, Look on the bright side, she will be able to make a bright home for some Miller School boy. Pretty to walk with, VVitty to talk with, And pleasant to think on. LOUIE HALE HARLAN, V. L. S ,.....................,.............. Charlottesville, Esmont, Va., earned lasting fame in 1885 by the birth of Chicken Harlan. At the tender age of ten he came up to Miller to try his hand with the board of education. They had frequent meetings. As the years went by, Chicken grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with the girls. In passing, let us note that Harlan made the team. He was good at Uiiguresl' and once or twice he got gay and tried the manly art. Football and baseball were easy for him. just now Harlan is helping Mr. Goolsby in Charlottesville. A lad of mettle, a good boy, As cold as any stone. LANDON CABELL PAINTER, V. L. S .................................... Yancey Mills Lang is rather hard to locate, though you can easily locate some things on Lang, He is an up-to-date preacher's son. Enough said. Painter came into the world in 1885 at Rapidan, Culpeper County. A little later Lang came . 5 I N Va. Va Va
