The London Daily Mail has been
writing to local authorities through
out England and Wales for particulars
of war memorials to be erected in
their districts. In general, stone
crosses with the names of the dead
will stand in every village, while
large towns may found hospitals or
lay out parks. Particulars of 326
places where memorials are to be
erected have been received.
OF these, 70 have not yet decided
what form the memorial is to take.
To this total must be added the
amount to be spent in towns that have
not yet decided on the form of mem
Urial and the cost of the Shrincs and
monuments which have been erected
in almost every church and chapel
throughout the land. 1t is a fair es-
innate that ut least $15000000 is be-
ing spent on war memorials in Eng
land and Wales alone.

With memories of the suffering
caused by the war it is not unnatural
that many towns have chosen the
building of new hospitals or the eX-
tension Of existing ones as In" best Of
memorials. In the list coiArctcd Al
towns and villages out of 254 are de-
voting more than S4,G00GG0 TO hospit-

There are numerous parks and pub

which funds have been created for the
relief of dependents of those who We're
crippled or killed. Clubs for eN-scrv-
ice men are in some cases being built
as memorials, and in others COTTAGE
homes and almsiIouscs for widows
and children of the dead.
Reproductions of the Ccnoiaph

other popular form of memorial is
