A MEMORIAL—THE VETERANS' IDEA In the course of the Last few months there has been much agitation, or rather much talk, as to just what • should be done towards erecting a memorial to our soldier boys, who have paid the supreme sacrifice. And hence a suggestion canning from those other boys, who were granted the good for- tune of returning, either wholly or in part, would perhaps help to bring the vexed question to a feasible conclusion. In the first place, a memorial to Le such, must carry within itself some definite outstanding feature which shall be for all time to come, a reminder to - the rising generation of the great sacrifice the boys "Gone West" have made. Indeed the greatest of sacri- fices, that we here in this country alight retain the freedom and liberty, we now enjoy and must continue to enjoy, because of their noble efforts. Since, none deny the immense debt we. owe these boys, and since also acknowledging this debt to those de- parted, we at the same time think. of those snore .fortpnate companions who are returning. Would it not be fit- ting that this memorial, we intend erecting, should not only Barry with it as its outstanding feature, a com- memoration of the fallen, but also be a tribute to the returned men and carry with it some helpful attribute towards making his return to civilian fife a pleasant transition, rather than a rough and tumble scramble?

In conclusion there is one thing which we want to particularly emph- asize, and that is:that the G. W. V. A. is a chartered organization which is bound to grow in numbers " and influ- ence, and will'become and remain our strongest fraternal and benevolent society and of world wide ,away. .
