THB GOUftlfcft k r ' y .4 t- y A Ghicqgo Chansonnette. Farewell to Chicago, its schools and its cares, Farewell to the critics of all my affairs, Farewell to trustees wbo had views of their own, Farewell to the carpers who grudges have shown; I've done with them all, with the lot I am through, I'm booked for the chancellorship of the U Niversity ol Nebraska. Much better I ween shall I feel when awty From wrangle and jangle and wordy affray; In groves academic 111 strive to forget Political pullers who gave me such fret; My foes I forgive and my friends, old and new, 111 think of with pleasure while I'm at the U Niversity of Nebraska. The things that I've learned of the ways of the world, The follies through which I have seen people hurled, The shadows I've found on political life, The tricks I've discovered in all sorts of strife, I'll dash them all up in an ethical stew In days of sweet leisure when I'm at the U Niversity of Nebraska. I freely forgive those who chose to rebel Against my proposal for mending our "spell" I even forgive those false teachers who sought To set my instructions and orders at naught, And not a trustee on that boaro will I view With feelings unkindly when I'm at the U Niversity of Nebraska.
