More than hundred years. in camp and on
battlefield
She has lifted her banner high; she has car
rled her sword and shield.
More than hundred years, from where the
Atlantic foams
To the wave-washed Golden Gate, she has
built and guarded her homes.
Many the children she bears, and many from
stranger lands
Receive the kiss of her lips and the largess of
her hands.
She has given her nurslings bread and wine,
ana honey and milk;
And water OF lakes and streams; and clothed
them in linen and silk.
She has opened the veins of her hills and
mountains to keep them warm;
Sne mas given them tapers for lights, lit at the
torch of the storm.
She has taught them the truths OF the New,
and The lore that the ages give;
She has taught them to dare and 10 die: she
has taught them to do and TO live.
Her past is achievement and growth: her
future is lost in the blaze
OF glory that shines on the nights that crown
her years and her days
And still for light on her path from the
mlSts of the years that are gone
Inc star OF her destiny shines forever and
leads her on.
On till the science OF Man has opened the
gates of the stars,
On till the children of earth have speech
with their brothers Of Mars:
On Til the sea ana air and the limitless fields
OF space
Are the instruments of Man and the heritage
OF the race
On though kingdoms may fall and empires
crumble away
Still may the country we love neither weary
nor STAY
Others are looking to see how lofty the hight
she can climb:
Others will follow her lead on to the uplands
sublime.
Over the sleeps of Thought the army of
Progress comes
Song and science and art the bugle calls and
the drums
The riders are knights of the Truth. and the
noble Steeds that bear
Are energies OF the storm and powers of the
sea and air.
AND still Columbia leads, the greatest of all
Grandest the deeds she dares, richest the gifts
of her hands.
So may the earth wax old, SO may the years
grow DIM
Before tue people forget the sound of her bat
tle-hymn.
Clothed with justice and right, laureled with
love and truth,
With wisdom Ior vision and strength born of
immortal youth:
Towering majestic and fair, so may she march
in the van.
Bearing her standard aloft, the "Excelsior'
OF Man.

The open-air concert and fireworks that
were TO have taken place at the Plaza in
the evening were postponed until next

so that people could not stand nor sit on
the grass, and the night air was TOO cold
for comfort.
