Some flippant youth whose tendencies ran largely into rhyme
This bit of crude philosophy wrote, once upon a time:
"I hope I have a mind above furtations dead and past;
I don't care who his first love was,
"I'd rather be his last."
First formed into expression in the think-works of the youth.
I pondered long, I pondered late upon this gem of truth,
"I hope I have a mind above," (Why should I want to know
Just who the James and Mary's were that charmed him long ago?
It's no concern of mine, I'm sure just how hard he was hit.)
"Flirtations dead and past" (They do not worry me a bit;
"I don't care who his first love was," (He likely couldn't say;
Why should I conjure up the ghosts of Love's red letter day?)
"I'd rather be his last." (The Scriptures say, 'The first shall be'
The last, the last the first.' Somehow it rather comforts me.)
So, with the callow poet's lines I've taken liberties;
I've left the sentiment intact, but now the version is;
"I hope he's through with early loves, confessed and unconfessed
I don't care who they were so long as he loves ME the best.

Several Texas ladies have interested themselves in the movement and ground has been purchased and a fund raised for the building of a hall for the new project.

The movement has met with unqualified success in all of the institutions in which it has been tried.
