To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
I am submitting for your approval a little original poem which was written in the hope of helping a special Harvard junior to make his decisions...
I'm a man now and can evaluate
The blessings which attend my fate.
The greatest blessing I now can see
Is being born in this land of the free!
John Harvard, with wisdom and foresight complete,
Founded Fair Harvard, with opportunities replete.
George Washington, unselfish and brave,
Cast his lot with the patriots, their freedom to save.
He led them through hardship 'til vict'ry was won;
They chose him as President and worthy was he
The Union was started all men to be free!
Adams, Jefferson and others of like legal skill
Framed the Constitution which governs us still.
