THE COLLEGIAN. Although we left the old home for A place of richest joy, A house with wealth displayed was not A home for me, a boy. I thought it great for us to live In wealth, almost like lords, But when the day to leave had come, Home bound me as with cords. I Well remember how I felt, just fifteen years ago. That same sad feeling rests on me And makes my spirits low. I used to think 'twould be so grand To finish college life, And go and work out in the world ' 'With 'fun and pleasures rife. The great big world was, oh, so full Cf pleasures, as I thought, But now I see that it presents More problems to be wrought. I'm sad, now, just as when a boy, My college bridge is crossed, X And now the battles of this life Are to be won or lost. I now can see that college days Are happier, by far, Than all the days of youth or age, WVhich full of blessings are. To leave my Alma Mater brings A sigh into my breast, And now it grives me much to leave My mates and all the rest.

THE COLLEGIAN. 3 The terrors of final examinations are almost here. The writer is glad that this sketch will not contain an account of those never-to-be-forgotten days. And then soon we shall be out in the wide, wide world to face the more serious tasks of life. May we ever look with greatest pleasure and pride upon the days spent at our Alma Mater. HISTORIAN. -ekeleeie To My Classmates My eyes were heavy, almost closed, My heart was heavy too 3 My heart was filled with sorrow deep, My eyes with sorrow's dew. The tears that filled my heavy eyes, Sought each a parted mate. I felt my heart heave heavy sighs, For I was only eight. The time had come, and we prepared To leave the old homesteadg An atmosphere of sadness dwelt, Like mist, about each head. And do you think it likely, I, A boy just eight years old, Could keep a pang of sorrow back And let home-love grow cold? The tears would come into my eyes, VVould trickle down my face, For home was dearer, far, to me Than all the rest of space. Yet home was just a common home, As most young boys have had, But now to leave my old homestead Had made me very sad.
