WASHINGTON THE BEAUTIFUL On the banks of the Potomac, L'Enfant planned aright Washington the beautiful A city fair-by day-or night. In memory ot George Washington, The towiering monument stands, A symbol of the might that lies In the areas of our lands. And like unto the statesman Of everlasting fame, A memorial of pure-wlute marble Linco1n's name will ever acclaim. And now my friends, look eastward See what proclaims the skies! In the capitol of the nation The heart of the government lies. Its white and gleaming dome inspired Those statesmen of long agog In its halls the marble statues Bear testimony, row on row. See now, a low. white building, Set like a pearl in green: The White House lies in splendor- To visitors a beauteous scene. Here, our president ponders oft On bills, laws, or relief, In conferences or meetings He hopes there'll be no grief. But then, the joys and songs of life Our capital, too, can boast- For here are parks and creeks galore- To Rock Creek park our toast! With such a city in our midst What do we wish to do? Will we be lawyers, doctors, what? The decision rests with you! Our opportunities tar exceed Those of other places, Museums, galleries, libraries Help us to iind the saving graces. We shall strive to do our best And shirk the job, not one! For we have in us what it takes We will stick behind the guns! Capital city of beauty and lame Here's a toast before we go! May all the youth of all the land Learn all we hope to know! -Genevieve Reimer, 1938.
