TRIBUTE TO CANADA In closing his remarks, Group Captain Hume paid tribute again | to Canada, "that jewell of the!

In recalling the years that had passed since Vimy, he mentioned some of the events that had oc- curred that would be entered in the pages of history. "As we re-' treat from any great event," he said, "it slips slowly into its place in the perspective of history. it sheds glamor in exchange for dig- nity, excitement in exchange 1or importance and magnificence in exchange for meaning." CHANGES OF YEARS Group Captian Hume noted the changes in the years, in flying, for instance, 'much that was ro- {8 true democracy. "It has four 'solid sides," said Group Captain Hume, "They are discipline, hon- esty, tolerance and teamwork." He then explained his four walls: dis- cipline as the ordering of one's own self; honesty, the mainstay 'of any code of life; tolerance to work together to a common end. HEROISM AT VIM Speaking more particularly of Vimy, Group Captain Hume said, "Great deeds are only great when greater follow them. Of such was Vimy." He continued, "Let us place it with a laurel wreath of triumph, in its place in history. {Let us bare the brow to the | brave. Let us bare our teeth to the {foe, Let us bare our hearts to the {needy." The men of Vimy, he said, died fighting for a freedom which has yet to be achieved, the free- mantic risk is now deliberate dan- dom from fear. "One of the duties ger.
