FOREWORD You have kissed good-by to one century, one little priceless album. You will yet kiss good-by to ten, twenty centuries. Ah1 you shall have such albums! Across the spillways come further harvests, new tumultuous populations, young strangers, crying, We are here! We belong! look at us! —Carl Sandburg Such is the Mechanics Institute of today. Having completed the first year of our Second Centennial, we go forward with the invigorating spirit of adventure; adventure in the field of endeavor, in the field of progress, and in the field of Industry, And we, the Student Body of Mechanics Institute, here present the twentieth volume of the Ramikin as an embodiment of that spirit.

GOOD MORNING, AMERICA Facts stay fastened; facts are phantom. An old one-horse plow is a fact. A new farm tractor is a fact. Facts stay fastened; facts fly with bird wings. Blood and sweat are facts, and The commands of imagination, the looks back and ahead, The spirals, pivots, land places, fadeaways, The signal lights and dark stars of civilizations. Now the head of a man, his eyes are facts. He sees in his head, as in looking glasses, A cathedral, ship, bridge, railroad—a skyscraper— And the pi ans are drawn, the blueprints Fixed, The design and the line, the shape written clear. So fact moves from fact to fact, weaves, intersects. Then come more, then come blood and sweat. Then come pain and death, lifting and groaning, And a crying out loud, between paydays. Then the last ghost on the job walks. The job stands up, and joined stresses of facts. The cathedral, ship, bridge, railroad—the skyscraper— Speaks a living hello to the open sky, Stretches forth as an acknowledgement: The big job is done. By God, we made it!' Facts stay fastened; facts fly with phantom bird wings. —Carl Sandburg.
