September Celebrations In Northwest Oklahoma
The Campus... "A Silent message thru the ages -
Is delivered to the races passing by, -
And the wisdom of the sages -
Flashes futily from the sturdy eye, -
Watching Life's laughter, song and tears -
Thru the eager march of onward years; -
With quiet, unperturbed, mobile face -
Inspires us to live with equal grace.' --
