Behold, good friends, this school so proud To which the young folks eager crowd, Learning the precept, text, and rule That govern them in life's great school. The teachers in these lwuildings grand Are good as any in the landg And here they lalwor, night and day, To help these young folks on their wayg To malce them men and women fine Who soon will take your place and mine, And carry on throughout the years The things we planned with douhts and fears. Thus huilding on foundations laid By those who daily in their trade Teach patience, courage, hope, and faith, They find that Polytechnic can A college he for the average man So lwroad in scope for mind and hand That those sent forth to do their part ln civic life and lwusiness mart Will point to it with pride and say, All that l am or hope to he I owe to precept, text instilled in me At this great school. 'Twas there l learned to run the race, To forward look with smiling face, To carry in my heart a song Which singeth on till life is gone A song which cheers me through each fight l wage that right shall conquer might, And this fair city governed he By those whose only chance for fame ls that they squarely play the game! i MAIL CARVICLL, W'l0
