Memory Gems:
The boy, with proud, yet tear-dimmed eyes,
Kept murmuring under breath:
"Before temptation--sacrifice!
Before dishonor--death!"
_Margaret J. Preston._
Dare to do right! Dare to be true!
Other men's failures can never save you;
Stand by your conscience, your honor, your faith;
Stand like a hero, and battle till death.
_George L. Taylor._
Heroes of old! I humbly lay
The laurel on your graves again;
Whatever men have done, men may--
The deeds you wrought are not in vain.
_Austin Dobson._
