Nineteen-forty- (2ta±± J osni Just beyond our reach a world awaits, A field as yet untrammeled and untouched by us; Still waiting as an unknown place to be explored. As we leave here, our shelter is behind us and our destination far beyond the present scope of cognizance. Can we pierce through the mist to knowledge, and perceive what lies out there? Or must we groping falter for the truth, with hearts untold, unspoken to? God give us strength to conquer new unknowns, to face life's battles and life’s triumphs with a certain heart and soul equipped to face reality and the wondrous things to come. Carolyn Jones 'UO 12

Wise-Acres far as thirty years. In those days the School had never had any graduates. We had nothing upon which to base our hopes and aspirations except our love for the work. We were going out as pioneers into a new field. And in the years which have passed since then it has been of great interest to note the widely varied opportunities which have opened to women, trained in this field. Today there are more than two hundred graduates who are actively engaged in horticultural work, and many have become recognized as authorities in their respective fields. At the close of this third decade the School of Horticulture stands as a living memorial to the faith of its founders, and it is the privilege of those who are associated with it, today, to cherish the traditions of the past, and to pass on to the students of the future a spirit which is fine and true. The papers say that Kansas corn And Boston beans had rain; The beets are up another inch In fields near Bangor, Maine; In Tallahassee, Florida, The citrus crop grows thick, But in New York, my radishes Look nearer dead than sick. I understand potato bugs Have luscious meals in Quogue, And Pittsburgh carrots push right through, Oblivious to fog. While out near Minneapolis The wheat just grows and grows, But in New York, my radishes Lie lolling in their rows. The walnut groves in Oregon, The Denver sugar beets, The peanuts in the Carolines Are not considered feats; Oh, why am I the only one, The thought in me has grown, Whose Knickerbocker radishes Are better never sown? 11 Lillian Luben ’41
