l(John Graham Brooks estimates that it
costs about $25,OO0 to properly educate
''middle-class" American boy.)
What is the cost of good, strong boy,
A boy we are proud to see,
A youthful prize of Lincoln size
Or little Napoleon B.,
For Henry Clay or Franklin, say,
Or Burns or an Andrew Lang?
And what must we bid for Chinese kid
With mind like Lii Hung Chang?
What! twenty-five thousand to raise the
lad?
Well that is a blow, for sure!
II what you name is the price Of fame
Our son must remain obscure.
Time was when lads, ere they fed on fads,
Grew up till we called 'em great
And marched corn-fed to q nations head
For a tenth of the sum you state.
! | rather thought that boy home-taught
Or schooled in a modest way,
If born with brains and for taking pains,
Might rise in the world some day;
And | dreamed, in truth, that college
/
youth
With nothing or less
Might still pull through Gas I've seen
them do)
And race for the goal OF success.
Though boys there are who are worth
the price, ~
| | think it would wrench my craw
To nav so dear for Harry Lehr
And more for a Harry Thaw;
If you raise boys cheap that are worth Q
| heap,
Do YOU wonder the gods feel hurt
When they educate at prncely rate
The BOYS that are as cheap as dirtF
Then what is the use of hoy, say /,
Brought up at the price of Brooksf
Can YOU give him mind of better kind
In your costly ecole de luxeF
And il not, say |, can raise my son
On rational frugal plan
Where he'll get the best and can stand
| the test
When he grows to the size of man.
