ELAEE PUEM A EHWEH HHMAEE The pioneers of yesterday are ours. What was their dream is our reality. What was their Battle is our victory The prize that once they sought is our reward. The fruits of life that lie within our hands Are but the toil of generations past. And yet some roots of wrong on which they throve Have undermined the grandeur of this gift. We who enjoy these fruits, our heritage, And reap the harvest of the seeds they sowed, Have we no frontier hardships to be met Have we won all in life that we have craved? The world we enter now, so vast, so strange, Is struggling in the depths of blind, mad, hate. What kind of world will we ourselves create- Our gift to pioneers of future years? So praise not all the things this world has gained. No limit to perfection can there be. Think only of what's yet to be attained. Bring back to life that dead humanity. The road we follow is untrodden yet. Our steps may falter, but they won't retreat. And if nocturnal dusk should dim our way, New suns will light new hope in our defeat . . . Dear Southern, you have breathed into our hearts Your wisdom, service, pure integrity So we may sturdy stand when we depart.. We vow your work shall not have been in vain. May we be pioneers, clear-eyed and calm, Pledged to the making of a brave new world, So that we leave to pioneers to come A heritage of peaceful victories won .... SYLVIA CHEPIN 9 ws Q 52 .5 .fel I
