iijt?, htt, 'Fil7 1:41 Fitrti' £85 fig; 5‘35: i'h' Honor and shame from no conditions _ Heroes are dying just as bravely for liberty to-day and not all will be remembered by poet or historian. He told us that war creates intense and unforeseen conditions. Times of peace had its honor rolls, now men enroll in a sterner cause, seeking honors for the most part unconsciously, on behalf of country, home and civil rights. The Board of Education very appro- priately gives the community the chance to publicly acknowledge and pay tribute to the boys of the public and high school, who have gallantly become participants in the present great War. Their names are to be hon- ored. Names synonymous with noble character, how much better than an inheritance of great riches. They, whose names are here enrolled, they, whose names are the same as many here to-night, are now brought with- in the focus of our minds, and as we all concentrate our thought on what they have done and what they are doing, we pay them honor and seek to perpetuate their name. Conditions of honor in various fields of life, civil and military, are not external and do not depend up- on birth or race or physical surround- ings, but on the way one bears his part. rise, Act well your or lies. J At this point some references were made in a general Way to the boys who have enlisted, who were pupils of the High School eight to ten years ago, when Mr. Campbell was princi- pal of the school. As he remembered .they had decision of character, were good students and leaders in games and social functions of the school, re- sourceful, common sense and fairness a strong argument with them. Stir- ring‘iellows with whom you could best succeed only by putting them on their honor. _ After the chairman's brief but well chosen remarks, he introduced Mr. A, L. Campbell, the public- school inspector tor West York, formerly high school principal. Mr. A. L. Campbell spoke with an eloquence that captivated all present. A brief synopsis of his words do not con- Me’y the high note which his speech struck. He pointed out that every na- tion has its heroes. Greece, al- though playing an ignoble part in this War, had its ancient heroes, and we may recall Bofszaris, a patriot of some- what modern day, who saved his country from the Turk. _ Bleeding at every vein. His few surviving comrades saw His smile when rang their, loud hurrah And the red field was won. They saw in death his eyelids close, Calm-1y, as to a night's repose, Like flowers at set of sun! They fought like brave men, long and well, They heaped that field with Mos- -1em slain, They conquered-but Bozzaris fell, Friday night, June 1st, will be long remembered in Weston. The town hall was filled to overflowing. The room was filled with those whose lov- ed ones and friends are away fighting for our empire and her principles. The Board of Education made this the official-ginveiling of the-two. magnifi- cent oalgen honor rolls. One-"is tor the putilie school and _'the other for the high school. The design and gen- eral appearance surpasses" anything: yet erected as an honor roll. They- will stand as a perpetual memory to our brave boys. These, while the central features of the evening, did not surpass the excellent oratory and beautiful phraseoiogy' that flowed from the lips of the four speakers of the evening. Their ideal was spur- red on by the inspiration ot those whose names were on the honor rolls. Their sacrifice of all made for the cause of lumanity gave the speakers scope. Some have said that. no great- er gathering of speakers ever graced a Weston platform. The soloists, also contributed to the evening's pro- gram. Their music filled the air with the charms that bring home to us the great sacrifice our boys are making. it further calls upon us to go foi'rth a,nd do our share.

I Mr. Alexander, the principal of of the public school, was next call- ed upon. In his usual eloquent style he ably spoke as follows, which is only a brief synopsis: This great war, unlike most prev- ious Wars, is being fought from the standpoint of ideals. On the one hand we have Britain believing in pol- itica.1 liberty, in national autonomy, realizing its responsibility to public opinion, and on the other hand a na- tion still muzzled, its masses under the Control of absolute government. The tragedy of the Whole thing is that two great nations, each with a genius for empire building, have come face to fade. Britain is to-day fighting tor /irrair. Pearson, the present principal 'i'rt: the high school, was the next lapegiker. His Words recalled once more the noble character of the boys Who had passed through high school. Many little incidents showed up that (itrtiihy the boys were full ot life and ‘ag'etivity, they had now proven that they are men. He told many ot their little characteristics while at school.

Dare we forsake them? Dare, we fail to come (to their rescue? Dare we turn a deaf bar to calls that will help them? Dare we refuse to contribute to Red Cross and Y.M.C.A. funds, which minister to their wants and suf- ferings? This honor roll will stand out as a monument to those brave fellows and as an inspiration to the boys of to-day and to these of com- ing generations. The Venerable Archdeacon Cody, of St. Paul's Church, was next intro- duced to a Weston audience. All who heard'him only express one desire, that he could have occupied a longer time. He is one of Ontario's fore- most speakers. His words fall with great force upon his hearers. Each sentence or phrase has a finished idea or thought, though it is short and concise. He highly compliments ed the Board upon their artistic tastes and good Judgment in the se- lection of the honor roll. He has never seen anything to surpass them. He could not help but feel the in- spiring notes struck by the former speakers. The statement that Eng- land was fighting for her very exis- tence was true. It had not as yet been realized in Canada. To-day we are called upon to face the situation. The government must act. No comprom- ise can be accepted. Every man who can must go. All must do their duty. If they will not go voluntarily then they must be forced. To-day we are in a war for ideals. These are built upon the foundation of truth and justice. There can be no uncertain wavering now. Each man must do his part. His whole address called upon every man to prove his manhood. To give all if necessary for the great cause of humanity. He unveiled the honor roll of the public school, which contained 71 names, with these words which rang true and clear: Hail to those brave boys! When they left us they had the clear conception that it was not only Britain they were going to de- fend, France they were going to pro- tect, but also that it was the sacred cause of humanity, of democracy, of liberty and justice they were to up- hold. Our honor. roll contains the names of 81 ex-pupds. Every entrance class since 1903 down to 1914 is represent- ed at the front to-day. Ot all the classes possibly the one ot 1906 is yrortpy of special mention. They have made a record that has not been excelled. Of the boys in that class every one (with possibly one eXCep- tion) is in the trenches to-day; one has died a natural death. Many of the boys I have known since they were little lads toddling about their parents' knee. What our Canadian soldiers have done-They have measured up to our most sanguine expectation. They have shown supreme courage-saved the day for the Allies at Ypres. The first to storm the heights of Vimy. The evening was brought to a close by the singing ot the National An- them. . POINTS TO CONSIDER WHEN PURCHASING RAIL‘VAY TICKET We have the responsibility of teaching a sane patriotism that will tell what are those ideals for which the British Empire‘has stood, and for which it has been worth while for men to live and to die for. her very existence and, make no mis- take about it, she has never stood so near a pwsible catastrophe since the days of the battle of Trafalgar as she does to-day. We must get something of the larg- er vision and see that this war will change the whole current of human thought and action. It marks the close of, one of the world’s great eras and the dawn of another era. There- fore it behooves us as citizens to so regulate our lives and actions that we may catch something of the higher vision, because what we do now will largely determine what the coming era will be. i THURSDAY’S STEAMER MAY 8th TO OCTOBER 30th Your Future is in the West Information from Ticket Offitxts: 141-1458tJamea St., Phonq N. 112s, windy tfoul, Windsor HOMESEEKERS' EXC U RSION S Canadian Pacific TUESDAY Thtttertiit, prairies have put Western Canada on the map.

"I do not love Great Britain partic- ularly and could not give my assent to the marvellous eulogium upon Great Britain delivered the day before yes- terday in this senate. I admit the greatness of Great Britain, I admit she is the greatest power on earth, and the most magnificent power ever seen in the history of the world on the ocean, but I do not admit that she is a friend of the United States. But, Mr. President, I think that one of the grandest things in all the history of Great Britain is that she does protect her subjects everywhere, anywhere, and under all circumstances. I do not wonder that a British subject loves his country. "This 1ittltrincident with which you are all familiar is a, marvellous illus- tration ot the'protection which Great Britain gives to her subjects. The King of Abyssinia took a British subject named Campbell, about twenty years ago, carried him up to the fortress of Magdala on the heights of a rocky mountain and put him into a dungeon without cause assigned. It took six months for Great Britain to find that out. Then Great Britain demanded his immediate release. King Theobold refused the release. In less than ten days after that refusal was received, 10,000 British soldiers, including 5,000 Sepoys, were on board ships of war and were sailing down the coast. When they reached the coast, they disem- barked, marched across that terrible country, a distance of 700 miles under a burning sun, up the mountain, up to the very heights in front of the frowning dungeonp then gave battle, battering down the iron gates and the stone walls, reached over into the dungeon and lifted out ot it that the British subject, King Theobold killing himself with his own pistol. They then carried him down the mountain, across the land, put him on board the white winged ship and sped him to his home in safety. That cost Great Britain $25,000,000, and made Gen. Napier Lord Napier of Magdala. "That was a great thing for a great country to do--a country that has an eye and can see all across the ocean, all across the land, away up to the mountain height and away down to the darksome dungeon, one subject of hers out of her 38,000,000 of people, and then has an arm strong enough and long enough to stretch across the same ocean, across the same lands, up to the same mountain heights, down to the same dungeon and then lift him out and carry him home to his own country and friends. “In God's name who would not die for a country that will do that?"
