CLUB SONG (Tune, 11The Old Refrain") With heart and hands we strive to do the best; Our eyes upon the highest peak . ~ot_h, rest; Honor and Culture both we have in view Friendship and Loyalty and Courage, too, As onward . up the path we daily go; We falter much, our steps are often slow. But for God •s helping Grace we daily pray; His Hands for us will ever point the way .. So to o;ur tas.ks we _go wit_hout a_ fear-_.. We know "To labor is a pleasure" here; A smile and s'ong fo·r all -along -the way The Culture Club lives on from day to day. - Emma Chiles. 8 DIRECTORY ·· Evelyn All~n 2618 "' N. ,E.. 8th Hazel Ba1.ley 28.15 ·N.

r:- .· -;- A SOBERING THOUGHT Samet ime , - when you' re f eel.ing lllJ.PO~tant, Sometime, when your ego's in bloom, · Sometime, when you take it for grant ed You1re the best qualified _in ·t h~ r~om; Sometime, when you f eel that your going Would leave an -unfillable hole, Just follow this simple instructi9n And see how it humbles your soul. Take a bucket and fill it with.wa~er, Put your hand in it, up to the wrist, Pull it'-out ·· and the hole that ' .s . re- . .. ' mainingIs a rrieasure of how you111 be missed. You may splash all you please t1hen you enter, You can stir up the water galore; But stop and you'll find in a minute - That it looks quite the same as before. The moral of this quaint example Is to_do jus t the best that you can. Be proud of yourself, but remember There is no Indispensable man. 12 ..
