LORD, zue ask thy blessi,ng upon this assembly of HOOHOO and thei,r guests. Grant that fri,end,ships may here be formed,, staunch as the oak, fle*ible as the hi,chory, and eternal as the cypres$. Keep us from pathumys crooked, and, from ways that are checkered,. Give us wisd,om to ,neet the smiles of tltose zuho approach us zui,th first clear m,ontuers and, shaky clear souls. Help us to so heal our faults tlmt they may beautify our characters, ez)en as the Tennessee Red, Ced,ar is beauti,fied by its defects. Help us to discount our bills, especially help us, O Lord, to discount tales of our neighbor's sins. And, at las.t, zuhen the mill of lif e be silent arud the last piece tally i,s wri,tten in the ledger of destiny, gwide us and. d,elizter us, O Lord, surfaced, four sid,es and sanded, F.O.B. thine eternul kingdom, for Hoo-Hoo sake, Amen.
