Men and women will stand in the cold of a November day, while hands with iu t d r ums hymns "0 Valiant Hearts" and "Abide with Me", while men of the Air Force, Army and Navy stand on guard. There are those who will remember the loneliness and separation of war, the bitterness of defeat and the pun- ishment of wrong doing and those who will remember the victory and return to loved ones at home. Each will remember, in their own way, their bitter or proud sorrow. Because of so great a sacrifice, we still enjoy peace and freedom in this land and we are not separated from those we love who are dear because through Christ, love is stronger than death. Today we will, above all, remember the death upon the cross of Christ our Saviour, that through faith, we • can have hope of eternal life, It is the privilege of members of the wo- men's missionary society to hold the cross of Christ, so that men and wo- men all over the world may look into the future with faith and hope and find that peace which passeth all understanding.
