i 1 MDELl'II'IQ5ZL X 1 t r i Seniors' Lament EONS ago a school rose from the soil That even yet remains the house of toil. For years her halls resounded with the song Of Latin, learning, and the tarduy gong. Classesfmany elasseslcame and went, Each one of whom a mellow memory lent. Anon the Class of ThirtyfTwo stole in, A humhle lot of Freshmen, out to win. For more than half a year the school was filled With these who stepped aside as others willed. But to the ancient building that could know Of nothing but that classes come, then go, T.he fumbling Freshmen no more glory brought Than if they never had her entrance sought. But then she hurnt, and only ruin left, XVith knowledge of her ancient home bereft. The greedy flames had crept, unseen, unheard, And had expelled the lovely learned bird. But half the ruin stood and still lived on, And grew in spirit, but the bodyfwan: In scholarship she rose and gained renown, And rare rewards in sports enhanced her gown. Yet with ruin was her face distorted, While the Freshmen in her halls disported-- A year rolled by, and Sophomores they became, And soon the school began to hear their fame. Another year passed on, and yet they found No wondrous structure rising from the ground. Next year we'll have a building, to he sure, Sanguine sages of the school assure. But, hold! Not here, but here, it shall be built, Cry wrangling justers, girding for the tilt. The architects were chosen, Contracts let: The sages seemed about to pay their debt. It looked as if the Seniors in their year Would see the finished school they held so dear. But horrors! New sagacious solons sit, Who scrutinize the contract hit by bit. Tho' heaven and earth may fall, they jointly say We cannot let this contract pass tofdayf' And so the Seniors soon will graduateg The building, but begun, will be too late. They who with spirit sought the solemn doors, Of that great ruin where good Knowledge soars, Have lost the honor and renown and due Which they, by justice, are entitled to. -Frederick Norwood
