An Appeal



O, Vanderbuilts, Goulds, Carnegies and Sages,
     And Astors and Morgans and all;
Rockefellers and all other fellows with ducats,
     Donating to college and hall,
Why don’t you do something for penniless students,
     Who have nothing but muscle and grit?
Give a thousand young men a free education
     Every year, and you’ll be it.



July 8, 1901
