r WENT into the independence square
i Auxiliary Red Cross rooms yesterday
afternoon to hear Sergeant Baldock, of the
Princess Pat regiment, speak TO the work
ers II was a different kind of talk from
those that have taken place there through
ont the winter 1t was the talk of man
vho had a fathers heart and who was not
ashamed TO let us see it. Not that the
other speakers did not have as much heart,
but somehow this stood out particularly
yesterday.
He told us that when he went into
the war his little boy of seven had Just
died and that he had to leave the little
grave in England and go over to Belgium
and northern France to fight But that
when he saw the little children of France
and Belgium, who had gone out wonder
ingly perhaps to see what the company
of soldiers coming up the street was and
had held up their little hands in their little
innocent, wondering way and had had those
little hands cut right off by the Germans
or had been caught through the heart on
a bayonet and strung over the wall out OF
the Germans way. he was thankful that
his little boy was sleeping in his little
grave in England.
He was simple and straight out and there
were few with dry eyes among those who
sat there listening to him. Afterward one
of the committee asked him what the red
band stood for on his right sleeve, and he
smiled and said that showed that he was
in the first year of the war and the red
stood for "the contemplate little army of
Mons; and when some said they did not
know that saying he told how the Kaiser
had been quoted as having spoken of
the men who fought so valiantly at Mons
as that contemplate little British army
and. said Sergeant Baldock, I'm prouder of
having been in that first fight than of any
thing else l have done in all my life"
He was gassed and his'left lung is dead
and he was blind for three months, but the
right lung is good and the eyesight is
back and is getting better every day. Some
how / feel glad as he does that it is
getting better every day. Those men have
surely done their bit. NANCY WYNNE.
