Our tPaecrn. Oh, say can you see by the bright light of morn. As o’er the broad meadows comes sweet breath of corn. Far up on the flag-staff, blown out by the breeze. The ninety-five pennant wave over the trees? With its background of white and its letters of blue. It gleams in the sunlight o’er boys brave and true. Though the battle was short, yet the victory great Which brought us as champions of our Pine Tree State. We did up the others, five games out of six. For we were the ones who had taken the tricks. Some called us farmers and tried to play jest. Hut found in the end we were little the best. In tennis we also show up at the head. Was 1 ley wood the best man? “ Yes,’’ everyone said. Although in field sports we were young in the game. We gained from the contest considerable fame. And hope in the future, with brains and with muscle. To come out ringleader, the first in the tussle. Our training equipments of very poor nature We hope to improve at the next legislature; For they must now know from the work we have done. That for each of our contests we needed some “mon,” And if they but help us to build up a Gym., We'll be in Athletics, and not on the rim. 22
