bows get together these days and start
singing some of the old familiar songs,
there's one piece that it not heard SO
often as in the days gone by. Hail,
Hail, the Gangs All Here" is passed
up and will never be as popular again.
For they're not all here. The loved and
lost members are not forgotten by their
comrades who have been privileged to
come home. AS long as life endures,
sacred memories of the buddies who
fell in battle or died in hospitals Will
be cherished by the buddies who re-
turned to their native health to enjoy
the wonderful welcomes they are re-

probably would be as acceptable now
as it would have been in 1918.-Ex.
