NEW ZEALANDERS.
With bodies strong and healthy, Minds keen and eager, too, We start along life’s highway With honest aims to do; But ere we’ve travelled far, We find the ruts and stones Retard our onward journey, Though courage stifles groans. We bravely struggle onward, Determined to the end To guard our King and Country, And help the world to mend. (5 Marks and a Merit Card awarded to “Bookworm”—Jean Davey, Temuka, aged 16).
