By The Sea
If you are of a certain age,
you will recall a song.
The words roll off
the tongue from memory . . .
whether from a cartoon
or a musical show:
"You and I, You and IO how happy we'll be."
The song topped the charts as World War I began.
If you go to the National Jukebox at the Library
of Congress website, you can hear this old song.
However, don't stop with the music, get to knowyour Library of Congress: maps, performing arts,American memory, prints and photographs -- plusso much more.The Library of Congress is the largest library inthe world! It was founded --for all of us-- in 1800.The walls and columns are covered with art and quotations. May it be that everyone will one dayview their library buildings--on screen or in person.
A quote from the South Corridor ceiling:
"They are never alone that are accompanied with noble thoughts." -Sir Philip Sidney
