Book Title: 

This song was composed by Mrs. S. D. Stroup for the Portia Club of Payette.  
The transcription was taken from a book of writings by Mrs. Stroup.

'Song Written For The Portia Club, By, Mrs. S. D. Stroup, While living in the 
old home in Washoe,

Come let us sing in peasing strains
Of an Ideal, Grand, and True,
That is winning us to an effort here
To Seek, To Be, and to Do,

To Seek for the gem of Knowledge
That shall lend to our livezits power,
That will add its Grace to our actions
As perfume adds to the flower,

To Be enrolled with the workers
In the cause of the right, and the true 
Until Portia becomes a synonim
For the good we desire to do,

To Do with a combined effort
Like spokes in a self same hub
Work that shall add new lustre
To the fame of the Portia Club,'
