It is certainly an awful sight to "see;
the beautiful buildings here smashed

as I sit here and look over to, our,
front line trenches where rather
hard fighting is going on, , it makes
me think of this lads ail home' in Can-

war is like over here' thiey. would not
wait :for conscription, They would
play the game and get over ,here as
quick as they could to ;h(elp their
comrades tvho are !doing their best to
drive the Germans "back.
I think a man who would wait to
be forded to do his bit' is not worthy
to be called. a Canadian- but is a co-
ward every facia of Wim.
