The following poem was writ-
ten by MIM Byrd Whltely on ex-
itudcnt of Daniel Baker now at-
tending T. W. C.
In Memory of D. B. C
i love you dear old D. n. C.
1 think of you orttn 1 must soy
Tho 1 can't do much for you
Since I am far away.
I'm proud of you as n college
You're climbing up up this year
Truly you are a school of knowl-
edge And I think of you while here.
1 love dear old T. W. C.
Tho I loved you first you hoc;
And I wonder why 1 keep loving
D. B. C.
As If It were the place for me.
I am wishing you the greatest suc-
cess And I want you to do your best
You know that we'll stand behind
you
Fight on! And we'll do the rent!

Daniel Baker Collegian
Brownwood Texas.
Dear Collegian Staff:
I am at last sending my check
for the Collegian. I surely have
appreciated your sending me the
Collegian and have enjoyed every
ieue.
Take a teacher's advice and en-
Joy GOING to school to the fullest
extent for It really la more fun
than grading papera. Every time
you take a quia be thankful that
you don't have to grade a hundred
like it.
With best wishes for the Col-
leglan'to success in the ensuing
year and wanting to be remebered
as one of Its appreciative readers
I ant
Sincerely yours
ELIZABETH JONES.
much I have enjoyed tho copies of
the Collegian you were kind
enough to send me and I am en-
closing check for my subscription
for the entire school year.
I think the "ex-students" column
very interesting. I didn't know
Martin Clary was married nor did
I know where many of the ex-es
were teaching. A number of the
old girls who suffered under my
regime nt the dormitory and are
bo happy there this year are writ-
ing me the Interesting things about
the dormitory.
I have very many bright boys
girls to deal with here but it is
sud to state that Instead of happy
bolstrous youngsters full nf pep
and Joy they have to move slowly
and carefully along and cannot
nlg nor yell bemuse Alas! The
White Plague has them in Its grip.
They have to spend most of the
time In bed chasing the cure.
Both Mr. Whitfield and 1 are well
pleased with our work here and
we nre proud of our beloved state
of Texas because of the care she
has taken of her citizens who need
her help.
Slncerest regurds to the Colleg-
ian and to the students
Mrs. W. M. Whittleld Ex-matron."
helping hand along the way. Near
tho top of this list I place you
and your brother Geo T. Barnes
and now from far-away Japan I
want to say "thank you."
Tho I know It Is impossible to
repay those who nuiped me along
pointed cat the way and did many
things to make the burden lighter
1 am having many opportunities
to "pasa on" the klnduesss which
were shown to me. Wo enroll
about 10 students every year
and as wo work with them the fol-
lowing lines from Edgar A. Guest's
poem "Tho Posing Throng" comes
to me over and over:
"Could we but watch as God must
do ;
We'd heo tho struggling youth
arise
We'd see him bravo his dangers
through
And reach his goal and claim his
prize.
And wc might Judge with gentler
sight
Tho broken lives which como
aud go
Aud better choose 'thlxt wrong and
right
If we could know what God muBt
know."
There uro many questions which
I should like to ask but I must
stop with only one: Where arc
George and Cora and what are they
doing?
Huby and 1 are on llftcenth year
In .lapnn unci wc expect to return
to the XL 8. on a furlough next
summer poslbly v i a Egypt
Palestine and Europe.
With many Rood wishes aud an-
other "thank you" 1 am
Orate-fully yours

anew that there are quito a num-
ber of ex-Daniel Baker boys and

tronly women who owe you a debt
