THE CHEMAWA AMERICAN 19 THE SAEOOL BAR A bar to heaven, a door to hell Whoever named it, named it well; A bar to manliness and wealth, A door to want and broken health. A bar to honor, pride and fame, A door to sin and grief and shame; A bar to hope, a bar to prayer, A door to darkness and despair. A bar to honored, useful life, A door to brawling, senseless strife; A bar to all that's true and brave, A door to every drunkard's grave.
