The soul of me ! Ssel a thrill OF honest
JOY and pride,
For these are boys that will be men ere

There in the making are the men on
whom the land must lean, "
And they shall come unto their work with
weli-tralned hands and clean,
And they shall stand at Duty's post,
heads up and shoulders square.
Prepared for all the days commands and
self-reliant there.
They shall have learned the ways Of life,
the fields and running brooks,
And have a knowledge of the trees that
wasn't gained from books;
They shall know honor as a real sub
stantial gem TO pride,
And come TO manhood and its cares
equipped and qualified.
When / behold troop of scouts I fancy

How strong through them the years to
come safeguarded we'll shall be,
There will be less of selfishness and more
OF kindness when .

scouts are men.
