The Indians decreed that Peace should dwell within it, the Men nonites gave to it the fruits of their industryg the College gives to it knowledge that is operative in life PEACE 'Mongst the mountains of the Blue Ridge, Lies a happy, fertile valley, ' Where cool springs rise to the surface And the landscape all is smiling, For a spirit broods above it, 'Tis the Spirit of the Peace Pipe, 'Tis a Being, great and silent, That is why the land is happy, - l' - figgt are --Q er ., wqgigsaeqg-e 'j -a 1 exe' ll!
