D E D I C A T I 0 N The fire tragedy at Trevecca on December 7, 1944, took the lives of two of our best beloved classmates. The lingering effect of their buoy- ancy and sincerity of Christian purpose will continue to motivate us to merit also at our end the reward of the good and faithful servant, Our hearts are bereaved, but our faith is rested in the hope of the final resurrection. In appreciation for their devoted lives we dedicate our 1945 DARDA to the memory of Bob and Clarence. I cannot say, and I will not say That they are dead. — They are just away! With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand. They have wandered into an unknown land. And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, since they linger there. And you — Oh you, who the wildest yearn For the old-time steps and the glad return, — Think of them faring on, as dear In the love of There as the love of Here; Think of them still as the same, I say: They are not dead — they are just away!
