Description

IN
AND
YEARS
Touch reverently those yellowed
pages son. They tell the story
of a Nation.
They tell of its proud
parentage . . . ot the brave and
hopeful ones who gave it birth,
and nursed it through its
struggling infancy.
They tell the story of its youth
. . . how, guided by the one
strong heart and the resolute in
purpose it grew, sinew by
sinew, until today it stands tall and
stately among its neighbors.
They tell, tooF how within its
giant frame of wood and stone
and steel, there beats a pulse
powered by the hearts of its people
... and there lives a spirit inspired
by the promise of its children.
And those next few pages,
son . . . those pages which as yet
are blank . . . why, they're
for you to write.
For the story of a ^Nation is a
continued one . . . and how its glory
lasts and grows depends upon
the authors still to come . . •
the future citizens of America.
