Fraternity... We ask not how thy suffering came. Or if by sin, or if by shame, Or if by Fate's capricious rulings; To our large pity all's the same. Come close and lean against a heart Eaten by pain and stung by smart; It is enough if thou has suffered— Brother or sister then thou art. We will not speak of what we know, Rehearse the pang, nor count the throe, Nor ask what agony admitted Thee to the Brotherhood of Woe. But in your anguish-—darkened land Let us draw close, and clasp the hand; Our whispered password holds assuagement— The solemn, Yea, we understand!

Dedication... Our 1944 Year Book is dedicated to Our Country, The Good Neighbor To All Nations. O Destined Land, unto thy citadel, What founding fates even now doth peace compel. That through the world thy name is sweet to tell! O throned Freedom, unto thee is brought Empire; nor falsehood nor blood-payment asked; Who never through deceit thy ends has sought. Nor toiling millions for ambitions tasked; Unlike the fools who build the throne On fraud, and wrong and woe; For man at last will take his own, Nor count the overthrow, For thou art founded in the eternal fact That every man doth greaten with the act Of freedom; and doth strengthen with the weight of duty; And God molds his fate, Who masters best himself best serves the State.
