A Word from Gur President-Elect fcontinued from Page ll, and only indirectly national, so its sup- port must come largely from the city whose name it hears and whose faith in learning and scholarship it ex- presses. it has already henetited hy the generosity of far-seeing citizens, hut its future usefulness and growth will depend on the extent to which all who pride themselves on being citizens oi no mean city express their loyalty and pride in tangible form. Let me give you for Kansas City and its University these words of an American poet, who Ioetter - than any other voiced the American dream: What Do You Think Endures? Do you think a great city endures? Gr a teeming manufacturing state Gr hotels ot granite and iron? Away! These are not to he cherished for themselves. They fill their hour, the dancers dance The musicians play for them The show passes, all does well enough of course All does very well, till one Hash of defiance. A great city is that which has the greatest men and women. Where the city of the cleanliness of the sexes stands Vvhere the city of the healthiest fathers stands Where the city of the hest-bodied mothers stands There the great city stands! '- Watt Whitman. rea! A94- Page 20
