Would that every public official in the land had a son on the field of honor. It is an open sesame to surer understanding, deeper sympathy, larger vision. for it pierces the Shams of a civilization cluttered with material things, and sets free the noblest impulses of the soul. Again he answered the spirit of the day when he reml the letters from the front and touched the question of spiritual regeneration in Frame, with the Allies, and among our mm boys. It is something just beyond us a littleâ€"around the bowl of the roml, hut it is there, ready to lay hold on us and conse- erate us to the task We have before us. ”111' last View of the (lowruor was that of the denim-rat, the man who loves to work with his strong hands who, under the hot sun stood in shirt sleeves and shook hands with a long line of parents grateful for his encouragement. His words- to them were sympathetic, reassuring, inspiring, never once failing to interpret the spirit of that glorious day. He took up our idea of honoring the mothers and fathers of our boys in serviee, and sharpened and crystallized its meaning. If we invited him here to do honor to‘ the parents because he was our Governor, he. left us with the feeling that he was more than governon- a simple and greatâ€"hearted man. The Governor spoke of our great history, recalling our most beloved and ('lwnshud traditions-4111 of which were as nothing unless we carry thls war to a SHCCPSSflll conclusion. 'l‘he lovernor with a son in service dill not fail to feel and interpret the patriotic spirit of the day. As he talked of the war and what. it signified to us, We recognized the "war Governor." When he recalled to those parents the childhood of their boys, We recognized the father. Some liked in play at soldiering, and wear paper caps. Their chubby lingers had essayed the manual of amis with a toy gun, their little bodies stood rigid at salute. These boys were probably in the infantry. Or perhaps they liked to play with little ships and send them exploring distant corners of the room on dark and dangerous voyages. These boys were now on our great men-ofâ€"war. Then the boy with the mechanical turn Whose baby fingers first busieil themselves with fitting building blocks into square holes or little cylinders into round ones. They are the engineers. Last the dreamerâ€"the lover of nature and all of her myriad creatures. The gentle one who never misses the faint message of the still small voice, whose soul is tuned to pOetry, harmony. and love. He is perhaps a member of one of those organizations of mercy which are doing so much to mitigate the stern conditions of army life. A fervent desire ti) do honor to tlw fathers and innthvrs who have givvn their sons to thuir muntr)’ prompted a t'vw of our townsmvn to originatv this tiny. and all who took part in its activities worked in the same glowing spirit. The boys from Ft. Sheridan and Grout Lakes were conscious that tht-y were not marching: merely for military display. Thvy were mustered for a peculiar purpose~tu honor the pzirmts of the Highland Park hays in sorvico, and as tlwy swung in glit- tering array under the Rom in St‘erCt‘ hzumor. they felt tlwir own hearts leap and know that with ox'vry plllSt‘ of that march they were ot‘f'vring up it silent trihutw to their own mutlwrs and fathers at home. i 5011s in Stu-Viva [lay “'le u {on}: slv}: for lliuhlmul l’nrk inwards a I'valimtinn or? ihv {'l'llu'lfulv.‘ I'ur \x'lnivh our lmy> :u‘o fighting an the llt'ltl of lmnm'.
