WELCOME HOME.

Company f, First Washington, thrice
welcome! You left your Yakima homes
eighteen months ago untried and have
come back tried, as by fire, on many a
hard fought field. In the loving en-
brace of mother you strsightway forget
your hardships and perils on land and
sea. In the smiles of sweetheart you
read the tribute that beauty ever pays to
vslor. In the hand clasp of friend you
feel that Yakima is proud OF her warrior
sons who never knew defeat.
In the unhappy isle, that emerald gem
set in silver sea, misruled by the
treacherous Tagalo, repose the bodies of
your comrades dead, until grateful
country shall restore them to the land OF
their fathers to sleep their last sleep be-
meath the monuments reared to their
imperishable memory.
Theirs not TO reason why,
Theirs but to do and die"
The lesson of their heroic sacrifice is
no. to be learned to-day. Why they fell
at Bloody Knoll" is not TO be answered
in the angry clamor of partisan politics.
History will record that they died to
make men free. not slaves. The crusa-
ders innumerable that piled high the
wist not that the tomb was empty-that
their Lord had risen. But all unknown
to them they had made the irst forward
step in the Acknowledgement of the hu-
man mind and sent maritime commerce
tits first great journey around the world
The soldier boys OF the last generation
freed mllionslfrom bondage and by their
own blood they cemented a union of in
destructibe states. The soldier boys of
this generation have been likewise
making history. Every battle they have
fought has been step forward in the
mighty march of civilization. They have
reared another statue of Liberty en-.
tightening the world in the China sea,
that grovellng humanity in darker Asia
may see and take hope again. History
repeats itself The soldier boys of the
next generation shall take up the free
mans burden, the flag of freedom, and
unfold its protecting coIors from the
frozen Yukon to the sunny De La Plata
and Liberty taking the wings OF the
morning, shall dwell in the uttermost
parts of the sea
Then thrice welcome Yakima's soldiers!
You have fought good fight and kept
the faith.
