Nowhere, say they, winds more fragrant blow o'er fields more fresh with dew: Nowhere river more enticill,g' mirrors back a sky more blue. Vain the search for youths more sturdy, or for maids more witching rare. (Milo's Venus reigns eternal itS the nIodel of the Fair.) Nor does Milo's type of manhood waver from these standards high; In good deeds, Idnd words and courage, lllan with man doth nobly vie. And in proof of this, they'll cite you A. C. Cushman's special case. '~Ion~t the most esteemed of ~fiIo he has surely earned a place. Toil persistent, honest methods, have from a beginning small Raised him to a post inlportant, gained for him the praise of all. Still he's onward, upward clinlbill,g', graspill,g' still new duties, for He Rhus to see the ladder's top; His motto Is "Excelsior."
