Old and young have lived mightily and died nobly. They have died like
men and fallen like princes. Not one of the lives so freely given for
The Great Idea has been wasted--not one. The life of the community at
large, brought so closely into touch with death, has been quickened and
raised to higher levels.
But the earth is full of mourning, for War is an evil evil thing, and
its fiery trail is strewn with broken lives and broken hopes and broken
hearts.

Transcriber’s Notes
Punctuation, hyphenation, and spelling were made consistent when a
predominant preference was found in the original book; otherwise they
were not changed.
Simple typographical errors were corrected; unbalanced quotation
marks were remedied when the change was obvious, and otherwise left
unbalanced.
This book contains many words in dialect, and they are not always
spelled or punctuated in the same way.
