INSCRIPTION FOR THE FOUNDING AND OPENING OF SHEN-PEI PUBLIC SCHOOL
[Text] We should cultivate a large group of people. These people are
the vanguards of revolution. These people have political farsightedness.
These people are full of the spirit of struggle and the spirit of sacrifice. These people are frank, faithful and sincere, positive, and straightforward. These people do not seek self-interest, but are solely devoted
to national and social liberation. These people are not afraid of difficulties, they always firmly and bravely go ahead in the face of difficulties. These people are not fanatic elements; or seekers of the limelight.
Rather, they are people with their feet firmly on the ground and fortified with realistic spirit. If China has a large group of vanguards like
them, the mission of China's revolution can be smoothly accomplished.
