TO 1919 Other classes may win favor, And iight when on the scene, But the class that is the leader Is the class of old nineteen. We shall fight as long as ever There stand the true and bold, And no power can us sever From the old maroon and gold. We know no other emblem That can bind us all so fastg And our hearts will e'er be loyal As long as life shall last. VVe shall always cherish fondly The pleasures of school days, But the maroon and the gold shall Always win our warmest praise. And when school days shall be' over And the things that we hold dear Shall fade upon our vision, Like an echo on the ear, We shall still sing fervent praises From hearts that neler grow cold, To the dearest colors waving- The old maroon and gold.

U a CLASS POEM Wise Mother Earth to her children spake thus, Ye sweet wild, ope thee thine eyesg Gaze 'round about on the great wide world And list to yon songsters' cries. Her commands were obeyed by great and small Ay--every living thingi- 'Nemonies, violets, saplings-all Joined natures' family ring. 'Tis of two of these heralds to you I'll relate- They, yon saplings in sweet tender bloom- A pine, and a maple one ne'er could forsake- They, too, waken'd from bleak winters gloom. One day o'er the glen came tramping That thund'ring and trampling of feet And down through yon valley and up the steep hill Came woodsmen our stalwarts to greet. And later, deep down in that valley Re-echo'd, and echo'd the ring Of the mighty axe and buzz of the saw, Then-the groan of a dying thing! For, that gallant pine lay stretch'd full length, A bruised and quiv'ring sight, When maple, next, her groan belch'd forth And then she fell from light. That eve, a weary Woodman chief Heard knocking at his door, Then with trembling hands his lantern sway'd ' fFor he was full forescorej And when the stiff lock he had loosid, There stood before him tall and strange One, unknown, of fair white face With snow-white hair and kindly grace. And, last from them that kindly stranger made fWith workmanship of wondrous tastej, Cremonas two, strung with a care And tun'd to please but master taste. All tones which blend to make up life, Can We from them a lesson learn With his sure bow he dreW- To that cause-Humanity? The harmonies of plains and mounts, Shall each one of us leave our song Of tempests great and pearly dew. To be temper'd as were they?
