COLLECT FOR CLUBWOMEN
Keep us, O 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, straight-forward 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 be kind!
—Mary Stewart

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 glorous 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

THEME
NEW PERSPECTIVES In looking at the landscape of life, we may gain “New Perspectives" by a proper focus on Religion; secure cultural breadth by means of Education and Literature, find width and depth in International Relations, and color and harmony may be obtained through Art and Music. If our vista is to include Freedom, we must view the landscape from the proper angle and have a wider horizon of understanding and appreciation.
