Addressed to Mrs. Woodrow Wilson:

Lady, WHEREAS your gentle patronage

And presence have to-night so favored us

In this our ritual, that you have thus

Lent to our earnest cause a double gage:

One gracious daughter to make glad our stage

And one to make its theme harmonious

With song—whose sire now makes illustrious

The larger theatre of our living age:

Therefore, ere yet the privilege be spent
