Show WE WILL NOT FORGET Next Tuesday, May 30, has been designated as a national holiday to give everyone of us an opportunity opportun-ity to recall with solemnity the supreme sacrifice made by our-war heroes and to pay our respects to those who have gone before. We shall go to the cemeteries for a purpose which has the dignity and the tenderness of funeral rites, without the bitter sadness. It is not a new bereavement, bereave-ment, but one which time has softened that will take us there. We will go not to an open grave, but to those which perhaps nature has already decorated with memorials of her love. Above every tomb, her daily sunshine has smiled, her tears have wept; over the humblest, she has bidden some grasses grow, some vines creep and the butterflys, the emblem of immortality, im-mortality, waves his little wings over each and every stone. To Nature's signs of tenderness we add our own tributes in blossoms which signify we will not forget. |
