Mr.. Davis address follows:
In behalf of the people of Garrett
county, / wish to thank the War Me-
mortal Commission for the opportun-
ity of participating in this memorial
service and in the dedication of this
magnificent memorial to Maryland's
heroes.
The boys from Garrett county
whose names appear on these walls
are dear to US. They are part of us,
the very fiber of our soil. To them
we owe a debt, and it is fitting that
we should perpetuate their memory as
we are here doing this evening.
Our obligation to them does not
end, however, in the erection of mon
uments and the placing of tablets to
their memory. We think of the in
scription in marble and bronze as
eternal, but in a larger sense only the
impressions made upon the hearts OF
men and women really live. To these
. boys whose names appear here we are
pledged to the task of so inpressing
upon the hearts and minds of the pres
ent and future generations the fulfil
ity, the waste and the dreadful con-
sequences of war that the peace for
which they died will be an enduring
peace. And as by their. sacrifice the
flag of our nation became an emblem
of justice for humanity, so must we
continue to be foremost among the
nations of the world as the cham
pion of justice, liberty and peace for
all people. ...........-
We in Garrett county are peace
loving. We think peace, talk peace
and in our humble way pray for rpeace,
Not the peace obtained by might, con-
tinued by fear and only realized at
death, but that peace brought about
by a broad understanding and appre'
citation of human character, by inter-
national cooperation and by the prac-
tice of the doctrine of the Father
hood of God and the Brotherhood OF
Man. And should this priceless peace
be threatened and the clouds of wal
darken our horizon, again will Gar.
rett county come forth, not in idle
words and phrases, but with her
Drawn and her brain represented by
the sons and daughters of the boys in
khaki, that life, liberty and the pur.
suit of happiness, once declared the
inherent right of men, and for which
these boys died, shall not be trampled
