The New Era is 50 years old this

Nobody appears to be able to forecast
1 when the terrible European war will
conte to an end. It was prophesyed by
many that next Fall would see its
fin ish but today it looks as if the close
is sot at hand. Whetherh
3 months or 3
years hence we feel assured that
militarism will have to totter and fall
and that the reign of the Prince of
Peace will be ushered in. What a pity
h lives 00 soratan noble clever
that the vcs y ,
young sten should have to be sacrificed
and yet the courage and spirit
manifested has proven beyond a
shadow ore doubt that all the heroes
did not live in the historic clays of long
ago and conspicuonsin the records
of today stand the name and fame of
many Canadians.
