When the news that Great Britain was at war.was flashed: around the Empire, offers were + eagerly made, bythe overseas Dominion... A wave of loyalty; swept Canada from’ ocean tio *-ocean. Not, for the love’ of battle, not for the lust of con- quest, not for the greed of pos-* sessions, but for the: cause of honour, to. maintain solemn pledges, and to uphold the prin- ciple of “liberty. the Canadians entered the war. Under the command _ of Gen- erals Alderson and Byng,: ‘and: also Sir Arthur Currie, Canad- a’s heroés won countless honor- ors. In thetrenches of Flariders and France the Canadians won undying glory for thémselves and for the Dominion. . At the battles of Festubert and Givenchy, St. Eloi. and Sanctuary Wood. as well as} Somme, Vimy - Ridge and Amiens; great heroism was shown by Canadians. However the “greatest courage of Canad- a’s men was tried-at the battle of Ypres, a German attempt to break through and capture Cal- ias and other channel ports, —Ffere-great caliimess and: endur- “ance was shown by Canadians. who were the first victims of the new deadly poison chlorine gas.

Joans and as often met with a gener- ous response. In all the people loaned to the government some -$660,000,000. The people will- ingly submitted to war taxes on: _railway and amusement tickets, ' “telegrams, money ~_ orders, cheques and letters. Factories were given over tothe manu- both # Sagland and: France. - Canada is justly proud of her herves:-On the walls of church-| es, schools and other public; buildings hang honor rolls and, to the acre: G.
