GETTYSBURGA ORATIO Imperium populi, a populo, pro populo, ex terra non perietf' Haec verba, a Lincolno dicta, a populo nostrae patriae semper sustinebuntur quoniam vera verba sapientiae Semper memoria tenebuntur et in temporibus belli quisque eam patriam nostram con- servare temptabit ut nostrum liberum imperium perire non possit.

WINTHROP HIGH SCHOOL 21 some symbol to meg but since it had been in my possession for fifteen years, I had become accustomed to its presence. It had meant much to me and its place would not soon be filled by another. Like an old and dear friend about to de- part on a voyage, I dreaded to realize that I would be entirely without it. What was it worth? Only something to serve as a remembrance of child- hood, an indication of carefree days, and then finally in a dawning of serious deliberation I admitted it had no ma- terial value, but we often cherish such, instead of the more Worthy objects. I could not answer my mental question: Why should I keep it? Again, I did not care to become prejudiced as to why I should, so I finally decided to flip a coin, for the answer. With a rejoicing heart, I found the decision to be in my favor of keeping it. So, whistling a merry tune, I started homeward, having thrust into my pocket my prized and newly extracted front tooth. H. L., '31. T0 MY DOG Staunch, loyal, faithful, true Are human Ways of describing you, But adjectives of grandest praise Aren't fitting for your steadfast ways. A look of joy leaps to your eyes, A rapture reaching to the skiesg Your head so ready for caresses, Your soul so pure, your eye confesses It matters not of my finances, It matters not of tired glances, Ever ready, ever true, To join the task I have to do. Can men be trusted such as this For carrying out one's greatest wish, To have at home when he returns A friend for whom his sore heart yearns? V.

BACCHUS AD ARENAM Olim Bacchus in Roma habitavit. Bonus amicus erat, et multas divitias habuit. Uno die, ire ad arenam ut animales vidat constituit. Profectus est, et breve tempore pervenit. Erant multi populi ibi et sedebat. Arena erat maxima et in media arena animales pugnaverunt. Dum expectat, gladiatores duo ex janua venerunt et pugnare inceperunt. Unus tello pugnavit, alius gladio. Pugnans breve tempore gladiator tello alium interfecit. Populi dicere plurima de gladiatore inceperunt. Mox sex ani- males cum aliis gladiatoribus pugnaver- unt. Animales interfecti sunt, et gladia- tores vulnati sunt. Postea, Bacchus domum profectus est et breve tempore
