"SOLDIERS YET, IP' YOU'VE GOT IT IN YOU ....."
What will you. do when the troops come . back,. ' And are'marching through the street? L When the cheers ring out with a nation's prido' At the sound, of their tramping feet? What will you feel when you see £he tears For those .who have,bravely died ? For honour's sake, and to right the wrong, They, havo crossed tho Great Divide. Fearless, they looked in the face of death, For a cause that is fair and true: _ ( Tlicy gave their, lives foi ,: the Empires sake,. Will the eamo be said-of IrOTJ?l r OTJ? What will you think in tho time to come, " When, .your chance has slipped away, And regret for all that you might have done Will haunt you for many.a day? . Tor tho sake of th'Sse who have fought J and died, ' . 'In your King and country's name, ■ Conic, play the MAN, ere-it be ( too late, Anil take a hand in tho game. _ ' -Mary L. Wyatt, Little Eiver. ~
