HE SOHIAN 1930 AKRON-1 7 3 0 In the forest's mighty shadow Gleams the red ntan's evening fire. I ts drifting smoke winds upward Like tlze smoke from friendly pipes, From the Calnmets, the peace-pipes. llfearied from the day's long journey, From lzis journey to the sonthland, From the seareh for better hunting, The Indian lies in slumber. He dreams of lands and streams of plenty. Through the moons of many sifnzmers The red man trod the portage, Trod the path that will for ages Serve the pale face, serve a eity. X11 X11 X11 1930 ln tlze eity's noisy byways Gleam the white 17ltI7llS roaring mills,' From the months of towering stacks Pour dark elonds of smoke and soot. Gone tlze stillness, gone the forests, But not tlze path where redmen trod- Now it sounds with nzany motors Sounds with hum of builders bnsy, Jtlaki-ng here for all a City, That shall be for those who help, fl home of peaceandrhappiness, f 7 A home of work and play. -By the 9-A English Classes NI' XI' XII page six
