THE GOLDEN - ROD words of thanks could not come to my lips that day, 1 have since thought of them, and could I now see you all. I should be able to tell you how highly appreciated were your kindnesses. Since I left you, I have often allowed my thoughts to wander back to your school, and many times I have wondered how all of you, and especially my young friends in room 26, and my former history classes, were progres- sing. I assure you that Quincy High School with its head master and teachers, and its boys and girls will always find a warm place in my heart. I hope that in years to come, when you boys and girls have taken up your life work in this great world. I may see some or all of you. and then we can recall the happy hours of our lives spent in work and play at Quincy High School. Believe me always your sincere friend. SAMUEL I). THOMPSON. Asbury Park. New Jersey, March 10. 1907. j. The Classmates. 'Twas midnight in the college hall. The lights were dim and low. As six young students walked slowly thro'. To a study, just below. For commencement day had come and past, And with it all had gone, Save these six here who lingered yet. For one last hour alone. For one last hour in which to hold A meeting—man to man: To set a time for a future meet. And to tell each coming plau. Then first spake he of the lofty brow, “Fame is a jewell'd crown. I would have it rest upon my head, I would gain the world's renown. “1 seek not fame, said a gentle lad, “But a bright and happy home; I shall claim as my bride a fair young maid. And together we shall roam. Then he who for deeper knowledge oft Had burned the midnight oil, Spoke thus, “A scientist I'd be, And for that end shall toil. “I go ere long, ' spake a stalwart youth, “To a far and distant land, I would make myself ‘rich as Croesus', Have vast sums at my command. Then up sprang a merry laughing elf, “Since life is short at best, I'll spend it as pleasure s devotee, With music, dance and jest. “My friends, said a noble, handsome boy, “My life is just begun, I shall follow the path which our Savior trod, 'Till my work on earth is done.” They met again—'twas many years Since first they gathered there, Instead, they stood with stooping forms, And threads of silver hair. “Alas ! said the first in a feeble voice, “My hopes are shattered now, I find that the jewelled crown of fame May crush an aching brow.” “My wife has left this wicked world, My children too are gone,’’ Spoke the second, who wore a mourner's garb. “I am left on earth alone.” “Alas !” sighed pleasure’s man, “My choice Was a foolish one, I trow, A sadder and a wiser man, I come amongst you now.” Then spoke the learned scientist, “Many truths have I in store, Vet all the secrets nature tells But make me yearn for more.” Then rose the one who toiled for gold, His manly form was worn, “I’ve buildings, ships and wealth in store, But I live unloved alone. “My friends,” said the last with a kindly smile, “I'm happier now I know. Than when we met here in our youth, .lust forty years ago. “My life I've spent in kindly deeds And simple words of love. Which gives me happiness on earth, And hope for joy above.” In a last farewell they clasped their hands, And promised through their tears, To spend in the noble work of God Their few remaining years. M. E. LeBi.axc, '05. JL Jk When Irving (ices lo School. When Irving goes to school, it takes Mamma anti Ethel and me To start him off, because he makes Quite work enough for three. Ethel must find his coat and cap, I try to find his rule: It's always an exciting time When Irving goes to school. Mamma must cut his sandwiches, And lays in quite a stock: While Ethel warms his rubbers well. And I must watch the clock. He eats his breakfast first of all. While ours arc getting cool— It's always an exciting time When Irving goes to school. Next. Ethel brings his handkerchief, I tell him he'll be late; Mamma then kisses him goodbye Just as it's half-past eight, And Ethel, buttoning up his coat, Says, “He's nobody’s fool !” It's always an exciting time When Irving goes to school !
