banks of White Lake Saturday as the
guests of Mr. Geo. W. Hollinshead.
After a social hour, a fish and

satisfactory and was thoroughly en
joyed.
Mr. Jack Hart, farm agent of

interesting one, as he discussed the
agricultural conditions prevailing
throughout the country. He held the
close attention of his hearers.

PARODY
(Sunbury, Pr., Item)
Dr. George Hands Webber, a
graduate of Susquehanna Univer
sity, and who now holds the chair
of Education in the Women’s Col
lege, at Milledgeville, Georgia, wrote
the following splendid verse.
Dr. Harris (received ,h|s flegree
of Master of Science from Susque
hanna in J907. In 1921 he receiv
ed his doctor’s degree in science
from the University here. He is
tnq district director of the southern
national chapter of the Pi Gamma
Mu National Social Science Honor
Fraternity.
The poem:
An answer to thc man in the
house by the side of the road.
By George Harris Webber.
Dedicated to Leroy AUeb, presi
dent of Pi Gamma Mu.)
Thc poet has sung of the house by
the road.
Where the races of men go by,
But I plead for the horde out In the
mart
Who’re almost missing the ganL
How could a man be a wee bit con-
» tent
To live in a house by the road;
While those down the way so burd
ened with care
May ne’er reach his sumptuous
abode.
C»t out of thy house, thou sluggard
of men,
Go hunt man’s supremest need;
Thus lifting thy soul from the tomb
of content
•ftirough service, -and not by creed.
Then you may sing of a hallowed
abode,
But not by the side of the road;
This home will be found in the hearts
of men
Reaching four square the throne of
God.
