This living symbol of our class In future years will grow In memory of the Abbot life We lived once long ago. As other trees of years gone by Have by one faith been made, So may the wisdom we have found Bloom forth and never fade. By this will we become a part, A link in Abbot's past This tree, our hope, once planted-here Will hold our memory fast.

Parting Hymn Father, I know that all my life Is portioned out for me; The changes that are sure to come II : I do not fear to see : 11 But I ask Thee for a present mind Intent on pleasing Thee. I ask Thee for a thoughtful love Through constant watching wise, To meet the glad with joyful smiles, 1 : And to wipe the weeping eyes : l And a heart at leisure from itself, To soothe and sympathize. Wherever in the world I am, In whatsoe'er estate, I have a fellowship of hearts 11 : To keep and cultivate : 11 And a work of lowly love to do For the Lord on whom I wait. So I ask Thee for the daily strength To none that ask denied; And a mind to blend with outward life 11 : While keeping at Thy side : 11 Content to fill a little space If Thou be glorified. Anna L. Waring
