Friday and Saturday of this week involved many activities and meetings with the Visitation Committee and the Board of Trustees. The week will end with a banquet at the Velvet Cloak. There are many ways to say thank you to Dr. Stone, but none can better ex press this feeling than a toast written by Mary Morrison Pennington for Dr. Stone at the senior class banquet: DR. RICHARD G. STONE. Of all tfie stones that I can think Jewels, rocks, bruises, drinks There is one more. A goodly sort of stone it be. A milestone, yet it seems to me Bos come to rest and spread its gleam On all who see it. It surely seems A jewel, for its wisdom shines with goodness though; , ^ j . A rock, for strength and fortitude too; A bruise, not yet though it has been through trials on end ... the year is near end A drink, for from its sources comes a foun tain of what the young will learn. There is a song, “Something Wonderful,* know Which speaks from our hearts of one who is to ffo- . , . t . It tells of a man who thinks with his heait, A man who is wise, who lores, who tries. Who says not always what you would have him say But he will always say — “Something Wonderful. Belt always need your lore, You’ll always give your lore. This man who ha.s our love, Dr. Stone, is Wonderful.’’ eir com- n affairs. . both in k and in Carolina, ■’s. It.
