FOR RED CROSS WORKERS

Since we cannot often get speakers
on war topics to come to the Islands,
and we cannot all 90 where such
speakers are. it is hoped the following
notes from addresses given by people
direct from the front will be of inter
est to readers OF The Record.

gentleman in the French army was
read, and because of the beautiful spir.
it and poetry OF it, a portion OF it il
given in the following paragraph
One has come to a point out here
where life seems very inconsider-
able, and only failure to do ones
duty is counted loss. Love OF the
future, and all the sweet and ten
der dream of bygone days, are like

lowered and from which the sight
OF the landscape and skies has LOST
its beauty. Except for mans pow
err to end life with d smile, there
is here a novel zest added to life by
the knowledge that we are doing
something al last in which no trace
of selfshness comes. We can only
die once-it is how, not when. With
the rolling OF the first British
drums, men went to their calvary
singing "Tipperary:" but their
spirits were equal to any martyr.
Some very interesting information o.
the first battle at Ypres was given by

made by another battalion on the left,
