Yet is one more class of students, Which it will be well to mention, For to them it will be given To behold the greater Parsons. 'Tis the Preps, Ah, words are powerless To express their child-like wonder, Their strange methods of rejoicing, And pursuit ol' self-improvement. For when one Prep meets another l-le will shout his name out loudly, And upon his back will smite him Just to show a friendly feeling. And the other, quick responding, Crins and says, I'll knock your block off, Run away, you fried-eyed rummy. And with these kind greetings over, They engage in friendly combat, Till they reach their seats in chapel, Where they try to sing their lungs out. But the Preps are all well meaning, And they join the college classmen That they all may toil together To preserve the famed traditions Of their own loved Alma Mater, Be it in debating contests Or in bloody fray of class-scraps, Be it throwing for a basket, a hard exam to master, ey are ready, yes and eager To put forth their best endeavor For the glory of old Parsons. Other hands than ours have macle her, Other hands 'than ours will labor For her glory in the future. Ours is but a passing visit, But a fleeting time of service, And when we have gone -and left her, Left our college days behind us, It will come to us how tender And how great her care was for us, And how much we are her debtor, For the best things that have been ours. Then three cheers for Parsons College, For our dear old Alma Mater, May she ever live and prosper. Be her Freshmen young and verdant, Be her Sophomores conceited, Be her Juniors all romantic, Be her Seniors grave and stately, Be her Preps too pugilistic, Be their faults or virtues greatest, May they in one common chorus Whoop' em up for Parsons College And the rose and green forever. Or Th 93
