Time's realistic points in space, Joined in the mem'ry plane, Reveal some smiling, cheerful face Of friend ne'er met againg But mem'ry's plane contracts as Time Fast 'counts away the days I That linked the classmates to the time Ere parted they their ways. Familiar faces in this hook Appear midst printed lines, That when upon them classmates look, They,ll think of by-gone timesg For who of them dislike to think Of school days that are gone? Of times when they'd try hard to think just why the sums were wrong? The fading scenes grow dim before The horizons of care, Which may have sorrows hanging o'er Such as clouds floating thereg But through the gloom a ray appears To cheer life's earnest way, To dry thc mists of sorrow's tears That may becloud the day. 10 6 'i' -qv-n 1 'ii -dl- -9- ,471 ..,..- nny.. ,

Thus treasured volumes bring to mind The mem'ries slumbering, Awakening each one in kind As buds are waked in springg They bring into the bitter strife, Where shades of failure fall, The cherished hopes of early life, And sunshine over all. Unto the gay or sad they' bring, By photographs and lines, f Like fragrance from the flow'rs in spring, The thoughts of by-gone timesg I For mem'ry gems help drive away All thoughts of care and woeg They bring the joys into the day And bid the sorrows go.
