The meamng of these words will not be forgotten ALMA MATER Our Alma Mater glorious, With loving hearts and proud, We crown thee all victorious And sing thy praise aloud. In loyalty we serve thee And strive to heed thy call, Mount Vernon, 0 Mount Vernon! Through seU' to conquer all. You give unfailing kindness If trouble meet us here,' You foster all our pleasures And make them seem more dear. Nor time, nor care, nor sorrow Can these fair days erase, But they, with each to-morrow Help us new tasks to face. Like breath of Spring's fresh morning That lifts the heart to song, When courage droops and wavers And paths seem gray and long, Will come thy dauntless spirit To help us on our way. Mount Vernon, 0 Mount Vernon! Hold fast thy tender sway. The changing years may bring us Some longedfor dream of bliss, Yet memory will cherish A sympathy we miss. In hours of joy or sadness, Whate'er our need may be, Mount Vernon, 0 Mount Vernon! Thy children turn to thee. ABDICA TION SONG O'er our place the shadows gather As the time draws near to part As we linger here this morning Face to face and heart to heart. CHORUS: Here's to thee oh Alma Mater May thy name be ever blessed On her name whose great heart planned thee May thy daughter's blessing rest. As you take these seats oh juniors May your tongues the chorus swell Till you reach your day of parting Till you also say farewell. CHORUS: IIere's to thee oh Alma Mater May thy name be ever blessed On her name whose great heart planned thee May thy daughter's blessing rest. As we leave this place forever To our hearts the sad truth tell With our thoughts of love and sorrow Now we bid them last farewell. 17
