APRIL 29, 1921, ¢¢Lest We Forget” The war ended for you with the official procla- mation, didn’t it? ° Or maybe when that boy of yours came home, swinging up the path, happy, whistling —and whole! You caught breath, and breathed a prayer of - thankfulness that he was whole, didn’t you? But do you ever think of those boys for whom the war has not ended yet? Those boys for whom the war will never end? Those boys who have been told of a Little Mother’s slipping away into thc (Great Beyond — told—because THEY COULD NOT SEE.
