OLD PICTURES
Old pictures, faded long, tonight Come out revealed by memory’s gleam;
And years of checkered dark and light Vanish behind me like a dream.
But when I see the paths so hard Kept soft and smooth in days gone by;
The lives that years have made or marred, Out of my loneliness I cry:
Oh, for the friends that made so bright The days, alas, too soon to wane,
Oh, but to be one hour tonight Set in their midst, a child again.
...Phoebe Cary

CLUB COLLECT
Keep us, oh God, from pettiness; let us be large in thought, in word, in deed.
Let us be done with fault-finding, and leave off self-seeking.
May we put away all pretense and meet each other face to face, without self pity and without prejudice.
May we never be hasty in judgment and always generous.
Let us take time for all things; make us to grow calm, serene, gentle.
Teach us to put into action our better impulses, straightforward and unafraid.
Grant that we may realize it is the little things that create differences, that in the big things of life we are at one.
And may we strive to touch and to know the great, common human heart of us all, and, oh, Lord God, let us forget not to be kind!
....Mary Stuart.
THE AMERICAN’S CREED
I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democra-cy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect Union, one and in-separable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity, for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its Flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
—William Tyler Page.
VV
SALUTE TO THE FLAG
“I pledge allegience to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands. One nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
A TOAST TO CARY CIRCLE
Cary Circle knows the circle is the sign Forever linked with qualities divine.
Unity, loyalty, high thoughts bless With the circle’s endlessness.
Chorus
From the circle’s perfect standard May our conduct never vary.
Let the toast go swinging around With a glorious ringing sound
Here’s to Cary, to Cary.
Cary Circle knows the circle is the seal,
Of all our aims, the good, the true, the real.
Let us not carelessly mar nor break
The pattern that we strive to make.
...May Williams Ward
