And hence a sug- gestion coming from those other boys, who were granted the good fortune of returning, either wholly or in part, would perhaps help to bring the vexed question toe feasible aouclusion, in the first place,ey Memorial to be such, must carry within itself some de• finite outstanding feature, which shall be for all time to come, a reminder to the rising generation of the great sae• rifles the boys •1Goue West" have made, indeed the greatest of sacrifices, that we herein this country might retain the freedom and liberty, we now enjoy and must continue to enjoy beeause of their noble efforts. And silica none deny the immense debt we owe these boys, and since also, acknowledging this debt to those departed, we at the same time, thinly of those more fortun- ate companions who are retaining would it not be fitting that this; Mem- orial, we intend erecting, should carry with it as its outstanding feature, a commemoration of the fallen, and also be a tribute -to the returned man, and carry with it some helpful attribute to• ward making his return to civilian life a pleasant transition, rather than a rough and tumble soramblef When we consider that these return- ed men, were the companions of your #ellen, enjoyed life with them, and in most eases; suffered with them, and since the one great lesson the war has taught the boys, is self-sacrifice and ':co- operation, is it not right to assume that, the Departed boys themselves, would have wished to carry on this co-oper- ation, when it meal,t so much witi'a living, And so the Veterans feel on this gitestion: They feel that it is poeeihly and fees Bale to erecta imitable Memorial in the form of a building, which sholl have as its main feature a Memorial Facade or f''rontegu, carrying oil i:e face in the tree.t ooncpieueua position, the names of the fallen, from the town and cur- ruu,;ding district.
