The Prologue tNVith apologies to Longfellowj This is the school Polytechnic, the oft-ringing bell in the classroonis, N ow and anon as the day wears o11, S0l111dS for the chang- ing of studies, lleard thru the long, long halls from early dawn until evening, . lleard thru the lo11g, long halls from gathering twilight 'till day-break. Loud f1'0lll their variousclassrooins, the many-voiced, jost- ling students e Appear, and with footsteps resounding answer the ring of the school bell. This is the school Polytechnic, but where are the students that oftiines Gheered with delight, when they heard in the Aud. the moving voice of the speaker? YVhere are tl1e good old faces, the pride of the school Poly- technic,- Students whose Vs appear with every word of recital, Lightened by ready wit, but reflecting an image of knowl- edge? Gone are those pleasant classes, and the pupils forever de- parted! Scattered throughout the world, while at later and younger set of pupils Brighter, perhaps, and l1101'Q witty, now walk in the halls fllld classrooms. Naught but tradition relnains of tl1e good, old days of the long past. Ye who believe in HYVlSd01ll,,, that sage overbrimming with knowledge, Ye who believe in the blessings and boo11 of a good educa- tion, List to the ancient tradition still told by the gathering students, ' List to tl1e Tale of Lore in Poly, hoine of the learned. GLADYS A. LEVVIS,-'08.
