hospital and the Army camp nearest
to their city. She started bravely
forth: her own boy was dead, but
she could he mother to some other
boy today; she would do her best.
This little group Of women. banded
together by the strong as well as ten
der ties OF sacred motherhood, broke
into groups Of twos and threes and
wentstheir separate ways.
The pale. sad little woman wandered
of by herself: no one ventured to fol

star: all she had left; turned her tired
footsteps toward the hospital, and
when there, to the ward where the
shell-shocked patients were located.
Somehow, no one wanted 10 stop
her. no one had the heart to stay her
feet, when they saw the sweet eyes
and the star Of gold upon her sleeve,
In her hand she carried n large bunch
Of Lilies of the Valley. and as she
entered the ward, their fragrance was

had given their best to the world

her flowers. for, was it not Mothers

into their dulled senses. 1t seemed to
bring back some sensation, long for

for their share. In the corner Of the
room, was a tall, slender laddie, his
head upon his hands. She touched
him lightly upon the shoulder. and as
she did so the Red Cross nurse shook
her head, saying:
SHE is one Of our saddest cases, he
'has not spoken for months"

A tear trickled down the cheek Of
the little war mother. and the
pressure of her small hand deepened.
The hands fell from the lads face, he
shook off the OBTAINING hand, but the
fragrance of the flowers seemed to
appeal to him. and he let his eyes fall
and linger on the tender spray.
Suddenly, he snatched It to his lips.

eyes began to light up, and letting his
