SATURDAY, AgMISTICE DAY.

Four years ago we greeted the signin &
Of the Armistice in frenzy of rejoicing.
Our hearts were filled with thanksgiving
and pride, over what our boys had done
for the world. Theirs was a great SER
vice and we have not forgotten it in
these sad years and long that have fol-
lowed. Nor are we forgetting those who
gave their lives in that World War. A
wealth of unspeakabiy tender thoughts
cluster around the graves where the loved
ones sleep. Wherever they lie, here at
home or abroad, their graves have been
made beautiful and sacred, kept with
loving care, and garlanded again and
again with flowers, while the flag they
loved waves its blessing above them.
No, we are not forgetting theml but 1t
is well to remember that the most lifting
expression of gratitude is our continued
and generous service for those of the liv-
ing who still need our help.
We must keep faith. Pathetic and
wistful are those lines of Col McCIae,
who lies buried in Flanders Fields
''If We break faith with US who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders Fields"
