a SECTION IX Article I. To the future boarders, we do gladly bequeath all stains on the floors, tackholes in the walls, broken wires on the window seals, scratched and generally abused furniture, worn-out brooms and dustpans, and abandoned room-mates, as souvenirs of the Class of Sixteen — that the memory of us may always be fresh in their minds. SECTION X Article I. We do will all of our superfluous flesh, to be distributed among the students, as seems most fitting, by Elizabeth Rankin and Ellen Finley. SECTION XI Article I. To the Faculty, we do will all of our red and blue pencils, with the hope that they will use them on the papers of future students much more sparingly than they have on ours; for we do greatly fear that these mementos will be of short duration. SECTION XII Article I. Laura Gillon leaves her height to Mabel Dabbs. SECTION XIII Article I. Sarah Hawkins does will her volubility, to be distributed equally between Elsie Johnson and Connna Johnston. SECTION XIV Article I. Caroline Constable leaves her good times at Davidson to Mary Louise Crowell. SECTION XV Article I. In conclusion, as we are about to depart from ihese hallowed precincts for parts un- known, and leave behind us many friends, we hope that some day we may return, and find the glad hand awaiting us.

|H time of happiness and youth, Of joyful consecration. Of holy zeal for faith and truth. And love-born inspiration; When earth is clad in vernal hue, The skies in golden sheen — We raise our hymn of joy to you. Our Mother and our Queen. You lead from life ' s uncertain dawn To glorious day your daughters; In golden pitchers you have drawn The floods of livmg waters. And round thy banner, blue and blue, A faithful host is seen. True to their honor, true to you. Our Mother and our Queen. Though roseclad hope may open wide The future ' s golden portal ; And love shall crown — a happy bride — Our brows with wreaths immortal ; Though all our dreams were coming true. Yet nought our hearts can wean. Nor turn our grateful thoughts from you. Our Mother and our Queen. To grief and joy — as years go past — Points fate ' s unerring finger; But changeless shall, while life will last. Your blessings with us linger. Unfaltering love, like mornmg dew. Shall keep your mem ' ry green — Our lodestar bright, we gaze on you — Our Mother and our Queen. WE RAISE OUR HYMN OF JOY TO YOU, OUR MOTHER AND OUR QUEEN I
