THE SHIPS.

o mighty ships our country's need
We build you with all possible speed;
And when you are finished how proud
we'll be
To know that you are sailing the sea
To wake the kaiser from his dream,
And win the battle of the submarine.
On you men toll eight hours a day,
@ mighty ships OF wood
Built of virgin southern pine on lands
Where only virgin forests once stood.
You are the product of American
genius,
Our future merchant marine,
The biggest, the strongest and manned
by the bravest
The world has ever seen.
You were built by men who are pa
triotic and true,
Who are doing everything possible
that humans can do
To speed the finishing OF you.
Slip gently into the water,
Because we know you'll carry neces-
saries to men
Who are fighting for mother, sister
and daughter.
As write these words stop and
ponder
And think of those who are over
Yonder,"
And wonder if we will finish you in
time
To help the Americans cross the
Rhine.
And as we watch you sail away,
Wearing your dingy coat OF gray,
Which makes you invisible by night,
Barely observable by day,
Wen know that you're on your way
To help your country fight
Raisers, Hindenburgs, autocracy,
Modern civilizations blight.
And when great war events pass in
review,
o ships America will be proud of you.
Because you did more than your share
to Americas men
Establish democracy aud raise Old
Glory
In that city once called Berlin.
