By the shores of the great river, Stand the tepees of the red men; By the leaping, foaming waters Live the students of North Central. In the midst of all these wigwams. Spreading outward like a fan. Stands the council house of Indians, Stands the mighty shrine of Knowledge. Every day of ten long moons Come the red men forth to council ; Come to learn the ways of wisdom, Come to learn the laws of life. Come the sachems, tall and learned; Come the chief tans, stern and brave; Come the maidens, shy and blushing; And papooses, bold and noisy. Four long winters pass about them ; Four long summers, filled with sunshine. Then, as warriors, learned and mighty, They pass on to come no more. Man foes by them were conquered, Vanquished in a thousand battles; Latin, math, and foreign language, History, physics, general science. ill these battles with their foemen Some were lost — to follow later; bome were found who had been beaten, T ' .iit to fight again and win. With them were the fleetest runners, Were the men of brawn and skill- Men who fought for tribal honors, And the smiles of the maidens. With them, too, were men and maidens On whose brows the laurels rested — Those who fought with tongue and goosequill, Not with feathered shafts of arrows. One there was who won grea t honor As the wisest of her group, One there was who was to journey To the school of warrior chieftans. » • Came the snow moon e ' er they knew it, Came the time that they must leave; Leave the council house forever. Count their coups and win their feathers: Wear the feather of the warrior. Wear the emblem of their manhood; Snow white feather, tipped with crimson, Sign of victory o ' er their foemen. So they met in convocation — Chieftans, sachems, and the elders; All were there to give due honor To the students of the council. There they listened to the singing Of the gifted council members; Listened to the words of wisdom Of the greater slaves of Knowledge. There it was the mighty sachem, Wisest, bravest of the tribe, Gave to each the sign of victory. Gave to each the red-tipped feather. Thus it was the green papooses Came to manhood in the council After four long years of struggle — Thus it was they gained the light. And to ye who cometh after. Who take our places in the council List ye to these words of wisdom. List ye to the laws of life. Play a little, work a little. To your studies give a thought. Life is fleeting. Time too precious To have these four years come to naught. FREDERIC FINCH, Chairman FLORENCE BROWN HENRY P. GREEN Page twenty-five
