This ambition moved us to seek knowledge not for its own sake but as a means to happier tomorrows and eternal salvation.

The days of youth are dying; The winds of manhood sighing: Those golden days of yore Are slipping from life's shore, -We look up to our dawn, Now that boyhood's gone: For there awaits the fight, Challenging our might. The road be hard and long; We are ready and strong: Success shan't pass us by, If for it each does try. Onward into the fray That commences this aay. We are ready for this hour; God and knowledge art our power. CHARLES PAUL RANDALL
