SOLDIERS' GRAVES
Mr. Alexander Johnston has received word from the Sunday School Union, London, that they had arranged for visits on Anzay Day, to be made to about half the graves of soldiers from this side of tho world, who arc buried in England. Mr. J. T. Rose, assistant editor of the Sunday School Chronicle, states that if there are graves of anyona connected with the Wellington Union in cemeteries anywhere near London, he would do his best to pay a special visit to the grave and secure a photograph if he is given the number and name of the lad and the name of the cemetery. If there is anyone caring to avail themselves oE this offer, the secretary of the local union will bo glad to forward particulars to Mr. Rose. Those who visited the graves on Anzao Day placed a floral tribute on each of them, stating that in doing so they felt that they represented not only the mothers and fathers of the boys who rest so far from homo, but their Sunday School friends as well.
