...plucked white flowers out of weed and thorn. We mourn, yet know that in a rarer clime He dwells with sages and with seraphim Free from the fetters and the weight of clay And from the passions of a gloomy time-- And we shall never let the flame grow dim That he has lit, a beacon on our way.

There are many college students who come from environments where the ideas are moulded by men who have seen organized labor grow into power, and who have always dealt with it as a menace or unwarranted interference with their liberties.
