wall," to use the -phrase of Field
Marshal Haig, were fighting to keep
the Teutons from reaching the Chan-
nel ports, and farther south, the
French army struggled grimly to
hold the beast back from Paris. Lit-
tle did the Allied world dream in
those terrible weeks that in less
than four months, the forces of de-
mocracy would be triumphant. No
prophet could have foretold that
during the second week of November
the armistice would be signed which
meant the complete surrender of
Germany. With this collapse came
the end of militarism, and the great
autocrats of Europe were all, over-
thrown. Men who, in July, believed
that they were about to dominate
the world were fugitives in Novem-
ber, flying from the execrations of
their Former subjects.
Now that the war has become leis -
tory, it is interesting to look back
at the important dates of the past
four years and to trace the gradual
growth of the omens that pointed
towards the final victory of the En-
tente allies. There were .two great

and death struggles, the Allies came
out ie orious, Theymade it certain
that the ultimate dstination of the
Germans was downfall, and not world
domination.
Even though the Central Powers
could not score a decisive victory,
they were able to win spectacular
campaigns enough to buoy their peo-
ple up with hopes of final triumph.
Each summer of the war was ended
by them with something that looked
like a brilliant feat of arms. In the
autumn of 1914, they massacred the
Russian armies in East' Prussia, and
ended the only invasion of German
soil; in 1915 the great Russian re-
treat, after a winter of victories
against incompetent Austria, took
place; in the autumn of that year
little Serbia was completely crushed;
in the autumn of 1916, Roumania
was smashed in a swift and - cruel
campaign; and then followed the
Russian revolution and the , melting
away of the cumbersome but import-
ant armies of the Slay. !?he Rua -

to create democracy, brought forth

menace that modern civilization must

Allies, but this was offset by the

Never will your memory fade,
Loving thoughts will always linger .
Round the place where you are laid.
Days of sadness still come o'er us,
Tears in silence often flow,
For memory keeps you ever near us,

Dear Sir;• --
Please allow the a small space in your
paper for the benefit of people who do
not yetknow who I am, and where I have
been for the past three years. I joined
with the 71st Battalion on the 7th of
September, 1919 and sailed for England
on the Gth of April, 1916, but was a
Bramshott hero until January 16th, 1917.
I was then drafted to the 78th Battalion
France, and was wounded on the 30th of
October, 1917 at Paschendale Ridge, caus-
ing deep lasceration and compound frac-
ture of the radius bone in the left forearm,
1 would like to explain what the chev-
ron's
hewron's mean which are worn by a man in
the service en the right arm. The red
chevron means the man went overseas in
1014, and a blue one is for each year after,
1 and wearing three blue and I -wish that
prominent citizen to take notice of this
and not ask me again if 1 have been over-
seas. There is just one more gent whom
1 wish to take note of this, as he is paid
by the town to know other people's busi-
ness and then to ask me if 1 have been
wounded, Any person who doubts any-
thing I have written in this letter, please
ask for proof 1 shall not be offended.
One who has done his share in the de-
fence of our fair Dominion.

Let- Music Brighten the
Lives of Your Children
Let them grow up in an atmosphere of good music.
Let their appreciation of the beautiful things oflife be developed
by good music.
Let them receive the indelible imprint of culture and refinement
through the medium of good music.
While the young minds are open to receive such impressions,
begin their musical, and higher, education with
DIS
"The Phonograph With a Soul"
This wonderful instrument brings the world of music into your
home ; re-created by the world's greatest artists. No matter where
you live, your children can have the .same musical advantages as
though living in the great cities during the height of the musical season.
The New Edison does not merely imitate, It re-creates. No
human ear can distinguish artist from phonograph. The famous Edison
tone tests have proved this, not once, but mare than isoo times.
Start the Children's musical education tb-day, by bringing them
Isere, and letting us play a program ofeharmiitg music that will be as
enjoyable for you as k will be delightful for the little ones.
