Gertrude Ida Shaw Registrar and Secretary to President Mrs. Mabel Haigh Maude V. Lcroux Mary Lyon Hall Clerk Matron Raindrops Rain patters on my window pane; A few drops sticking to the glass—others forming little rivulets to roll down, and so to disappear. So it is with learning— Some drops of knowledge sticking in the mind as raindrops on the pane. But what of those that disappear? We may never regain what today we neglect to retain. Ellen Houston 13

CLASS ODE Like the flowing of the river, Which now glides serenely calm, Then in turbulence up-surges, Dances on ’neath sunshine warm, So have been our years together, Years of learning how to live, How to answer calls that urge us Upward, on, our best to give. Friends we’ve made who’vc grown the closer With each joy and trial we’ve shared. May good fortune grace each future, Hopes fulfilled each heart make glad. As we part, we pray, O Father, For that pow’r we so desire To make those about us happier, Both to serve and to inspire. 14
