Died for Their Country.
Every high school in the city has its list
of heroes. The faces Of the dead look down
from walls upon the living, perpetual les
son in patriotism, an inspiration for all
time to that love Of country which does
not stop at the sacrifice of life Itself The
high schools have been in existence here
but q quarter of century; their history
is unmarried except for the sadness of the
surrender of these young lives: yet it is the
glory of the school that it has produced
men ready, In the flush of youth, to brave
death in a war, not for the defense of
but for the freedom of men of an
other race. another land.
