G. H. S. LOSES A FRIEND
Yes, age succumbs to youth. On Sep

friend by Avay of the axe and saAv
route. For years this tree has shaded
and beautified our campus, but a feAV
weeks ago it Avas cut doAvn. Its last
act of kindness, no doubt, Avill be to
help keep us Avarm during the AA’inter.
We are all sorry to see our friend go,
but Ave Avill look foiward Avith interest
to the time Avhen the tiny sprout noAv
planted Avill give us shelter from Old
Sol's rays.
The absent danger greater still ap
pears; and less he fears, Avho’s near
the thing he fears.
CoAvards die many times before their
death; the valiant neA-er taste of death
but once.
