;G:c::2crsc:rac: THE WALNUT TREE c sacra::? SPRING’S AWAKENING God whispered and the Spring lias come; Wakening life from the ground has sprung; Youth eternal, beauty rare, Love and gladness have come to share And make glad the hearts in Winter’s snare. God and Nature hand in hand Control the dial wherein Time’s sand Metes slowly out both death and life The youth of Spring and Winter's strife. For winter represents Mother Nature’s death Until Spring bursts forth with eternal breath To show that life is never done. God whispered and the Spring has come; —D. H., Senior BEFORE I GREW UP Balloons, red and yellow and blue, Hot dogs and pink lemonade too, For all these things I spent my dough Many long years ago Before I grew up. Pop corn, peanuts, candy-bars, Merry-go-round, Ferris wheel, kiddie kars, For all these 1 spent my dough, Many long years ago— Before 1 grew up. Roller skates, coasters, and sleds. Teddy-bears, tea sets, and doll beds, For all these I spent my dough Many long years ago— Before I grew up. But now, rouge, lipstick, and powder galore, Hose, hats, shoes and many things more. For these I spend my dough, For I have many places to go— Since I grew up. I. W., Senior c::ac::cczac::aczsc: Page twenty-six 9 29
