A Senior’s Ideal child is a prince to be trained for responsible leadership.—Edward Everett ‘ How shall we train our prince? To rule his land, Love justice and love honor. For them both He girds himself and serves her, nothing; loath. Although against a host in arms he stand. Ruling himself, the world he may command; Taught to serve her in honour and truth, Baby and boy and in his sturdy youth, He finds archangels help on either hand. The best the world can teach him he shall know. The best his land can give him, he shall see, And trace the footsteps where his fathers trod; See all the beauty that the world can show, And how it is that freedom makes men free, And how such freemen love and serve their God.”
