FAREWELL TO ANZAC.
sh! lump your swag and leavo, ladsj the ships aro in the bay; iWe' ve got our marching orders now, it's time to come away; .'And a long good-bye to Anzac Beach, where blcod has flown in vain, _por we're leaving it, leaving it —game to fight again.
■But some there are who ne cr will quit this bleak and bloodstained shore, f&nd some that fought and marched with us will fight and inarch no movo; ;Their blood has bought till Judgment Day the slopes they stormed so well, .iAnd we're leaving them, leaving them, sleeping where they fell. !Ay, they are gone beyond ifc all —tho praising and the blame, 'And many a man may win renown, but none more fair a name; £Thev showed the world New Zealand s "lads knew well the way to die, 'And we're leaving them, leaving them, quiet where they lie. —C. Fox Smith. —Sent by Joan Sisam, Taneatua.
