t DEDICATieN. Swarthmore has most charming girls, Of every kind and station They ' re the dear and priceless pearls That bless co-education. Girls of every kind we greet ; Some like lilies, fair, petite, Others darker, but as sweet. Of all sizes are their feet ; Eyes of every shade we meet, Black, or brown, or hazel hue, Grrey eyes, eyes of purest blue. None of them will prove untrue. Girls, we love you, and we do Dedicate this book to you.
