Hushed, softly -whispering throngs line the long avenues. Where is London's roar? where her nev- er-ending ev-er-ending din of iron -shod wheels? They have vanished as winter: ,snow at the Ana ,ic touch of spring. Nothing is heard but the slow tramp of soldiers' feet, the peal of, ,the ininut;e,gem and the mournful echo of muf- fled drums, -accompanied at times by the solemn strains of the Dead March. It is, the bur- ial of a British Soldier, This is no ordinary funeral. An ,unknown "brave" is going to rest with British Kings in the hallowed transept of West- minster. Men in khaki, with arms reversed, feel the hot tear on their manly cheeks. Was he their pal in Flanders fields? Women weep softly as they think of husbands, sweethearts, brothers, who died for King and Country. Each see in the corpse of the Unknown the .departed object of her affection. The solemn pagent winds slowly among towering build- ings, lined on either side by dragoons, lancers and blue -jack- ets. Beneath arches, over brid- ges, past palaces, the gun car- riage, draped with flags, bears the silent hero. Silent! No. His corpse speaks forth the patriot- ism and devotion of Britain's sort'. He is the eternal coven- ant between England and her departed ' fighting men, Mounting the marble steps of Westminster, his -casket is borne" through the arched halls. • The King, the Royal Family, and the nobility of England 'follow. All feel the sorrow of bereavement. -The peasantry force : their' way to view his resting place, busi- ness men leave their offices, all Britain is stirred by, the body of an unknown titan. At last, amid King, Bishops and Princes, knights, seaman and soldiers, he sinks to rest in his marble tomb. Be he .tramp's son or king's son, he represents the self-sacrifice of British man - •,hood. He rests there,.a silent re- minder of great deeds and the struggle for world freedom.Bri- tain will never suffer moral or political decline while she holds in her memorythe sacrifices of love, which has found• thou- sands of her sons a,.grave be- neath the turf of' Flanders where the poppies blow.
