the sick and wounded; the women

Seven million one hundred thousand
men who had laid down their lives in
the great war. Think of it! Seven
million, one hundred thousand young
men had died on the field Of battle!
What does that mean to the women
Of the world7 It means that seven
million one hundred thousand women
walked day by day with their faces
toward an open grave that they might
give life to son. It means that
seven million one hundred thousand
little children lay In the arms of a
mother whose love had made them
face even the terrors of death that
they might become the mothers Of
men.
1t means that year after year these
women had put up their lives into the
livesSf their sons until they had rear
ed them to be men. For what? In
the hope that these sons Of theirs could
give to the world the things for which
women dream, the things for which
women hope and pray and long. These
were the things that the women had
