| 26 | [song lyrics?] "Manchester College. "4. Ofttimes when students here do come/They're met by cupid's dart;/And seldom do they leave the place/Without a stolen heart./And later, in their children's hearts,/They plant the germ of love/For their own Alma Mater, dear,/Which always stands above. "5. And now, dear friends, where'er you go,/Speak for M.C. a word./And spread her glory far and wide/Till every soul is stirred./We hesitate to close our song--/The half has not been told,/But just before we go, we'll give/Three cheers for the Black and Gold." | |
