We are at war with those blood-
thirsty war lords of Germany and
Italy, who would pollute the whole
earth; they have broken every prom
ise and every treaty entered into:
history has never recorded similar
violations of international rights and
of the most elementary principles of
humanity and charity. We have an
unshakeable confidence in the future
DANCEof our great Empire, her forces and
mighty. And her ideals, and above aB ithe Al-
whenAl' the story of the waris told wee
will be proud of the part our loyal
Canadians played in the conflict, Not-
withstanding all this, we must not
forget the fact that no play or amuse-
ment of any kind would force us into
a rut from which it would be difficult
to extricate ourselves. So we have
met here tonight for a joyful time.
and let us have it by forgetting every-
thing
verything else ter the time being: In con
elusion, let me again thank you all
for the part you have played in
bringing this Association to where it
