point or view was fruitful and played

churchill during his address. He con-
tinued:
The heart and soul was taken out

Australian force which landed on tho
Gallipoli peninsula. Never again was
the Turk able to present such a bat

accumulated military strength was rup-

Fragrant and Beautiful Blossom.

Dorothy Roger, aged 9 years, par
took of very pleasant afternoon
Thursday last at her home with her
grandmother, Mrs. Catherine Kemmer-
ling. and aunt Theresa. For time
after their departure she appeared in
the best of spirits About 5 O'Clock
however she complained of headache.
Later in the evening commissions set in
and they continued one after another UNI
til 2 o'clock the following afternoon,
Feb. 8, when her pure. gentle spirit de-
parted a fragrant and beautiful blossom
for the realms of Paradise.
Drs. Ridley and Gratiot were sum-
moned and pronounced it spinal menin-
gifts. Last fall Dorothy was quite
severely injured about the head by a
fall from little express wagon while
coasting down what is termed the Man
ley hill, from which she never fully re-
covered and it is thought those injuries
may have been the cause of the spinal
meningitis. Dorothy was the daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter j. Roger, dear.
obedient, lovable child and second
grade pupil of st. Mary's parochial
school.
The shock and loss cause intense
sadness for the parents and family for
