Not even the fear of death was enough to deter them from doing their utmost to preserve and protect our National Unity. Now in times of peace, we must not forget them, for they made peace and prosperity possible. . Therefore on Memorial Day our hearts should be filled with gratitude and affection, and we should resolve to carry on our day by day activities in the same high spirit in which our sol diers assumed the burden in times of stress.
