Starts With War
To understand this unusual maze
you must go back to the days OF the
war when streets were filled with
marching soldiers bound for France.
One OF these enthusiastic young
fighters was Robert Allies, a husband
and father of tiny child. Allies kiss
ed his wife and child goodbye in
Philadelphia and embarked for the
theater of war.
He fought bravely--until one day a
giant shell exploded close beside him
After that Allies wasn't the same
healthy young American he had been.
Shell shock" said the company
medical officer. And he ordered Allies
sent to a hospital behind the lines
When his regiment came home,
Allies came too. A warm welcome
from his wife and child, now grown
much bigger, greeted him.
You couldn't have told Allies was
any different from any other member
of his regiment. He bore no scar.
He was able to do his daily work.
