PRAIRIE DOG The days are gone when Prairie Dog of old With face of steel, strong limbs, and snow-white hair Borne by his steed as swift and fleet as air, Rode forth to fight, a warrior brave and bold. No coward he, but victor ever, cold And proud, his name he e’er kept clean and fair. His forefathers, a hundred years did share The same ideals his character foretold. Upon his death-bed Prairie Dog did ask, His name be cherished o’er the country wide, And borne aloft o’er all the continent. Thus we Juniors, each year, bend to our tasks. And all to equal, hold we fast with pride To ideals high which Prairie Dog presents. —Arthur Beuthin
