McKenna

You have long and patiently

waited for this day. The Monu- ment which is to be unveiled to- day was erected by the citizens of Charlottetown to com-memornte the memory of all from this Pro- vince who gave their services in the day of our nat_ion's need, to up- hold nnd maintain the freedom of our homes and country.

Sometimes you will hear" the

question “Who won t-_he war?" The mon whose memory we commem- orate fodny are those who won the war. The men of ranks as they are represented on this monument of all races. men from all classes and conditions of life, those who loft all that was near and dear to them to face the iron hall in t-he ranks of the Allied Armies that today we -might be free, the men who want out into the darkness and terror of No Mnn’s band with strong arms and light hearts, the men to whom no labor was too great, _no suffering so intense as to turn t-helm back -from tho object for which they left their homes and firesides that no foreign me should trample on our soil.

During tho Great War, when the

line of 'battle was bending under the tremendous pressure of the massed German armies, the call for men, more men -persistently rank out‘from the weakening ranks of the Allies. The struggle -became an international contest in man power. During these years of ng- ony and suspense, above the boomt- ing of cannon.” the crackling of ma- chine guns and the .bum of the aeroplane,was heard the -bessechlng imploring cry of: "Men, more men!" That cry was heard and the call -was answered, and the travelled lanes of the ocean were crowded-with ships tralghlea with human cargoes, and yet the cry of "-Men, morfmen/"und still more men went out with accents ol, fransy and despair. The human factor was what counted when eventually`ths Allied lines made their last glorious advance in Aug- ust, 1918, and broke the Hinden- burg line. and the great German war machine was shattered and broken beyond repair.

To Canadians. t-he war was dear-

ly won. To our people it moans much. It means the recognition ami approval by tho world of Can- adian loyalty. Canadian bravery, Canadian effectiveness. No country has more to remember. and _to re- member with 11r|de, than Canada. No men achieved greater distinc- tion in the war than the Canadians. and no nation paid a greater price proportioately than Canada.

To all of us who cull -this land

l' ur borne, thu; rlay is a day nf -Xte- lnory, a day of Sorrow, u tiny of Pride. and u day cf new consecra- tion to service and to duly.

Dllring the past seven years the

wori-tl has forgoifen many tllinp,s_ lC'.'r‘.nts which scemmf in th#-.ir own fimn inf-;‘.url‘lnt or luoun-n-tous have vanlslufll witih the mists --f yf-ral-r- tiny. lint.-the worfd has not forgotten nor r-.in it ever \\'@ii i`0l`;!f‘i. the youth who it-it this country for the ctr-rn_”ll r:.1us¢ -wi f-rar-dom. The world has not forgo-t-ton their valor, their self sacl‘il'.ice, their suffering, and the giadhurols-.'u of their death. We are mindful it-.l_|§.' of that splendid t’l:.'\n<'c. of life and happiness they ioilt behind. We recall how \villlng- ly they it-it l=S l\`ale tht-ir unknown but hop:-ful -prospects, and how they offered all -they had in strength .intl llopcs and years to the service of their country. Today we know that whatever may happen in this ever-changing \\'~'rlll¢-and no one is wise- onongfh to discover that clear- ly--lvhatever may happen. our mc- lnory for those who gave their lives for our bull 'vcd land. and our love und pride -for them.. \\'ill remain uu- harrucd throughout ll1e~agos_ ’l`hcir sacrifice iur c untry und civilization is complete. It is taken out of our hands. lt is liiicll up heyotrd the roar-lr of our scruplcs and our un- certainties. Tile -iuturn nf ‘fur coun- try mzry be ‘beset -» -with dangers But fore-ilolllngs about our future can never cloud that clear sky of memory in which we hchoids, as something far - fi’ and beautiful. tho image of those who once were. an-d ever wil-l be our frlen-ds and com- rades. We may have d0u'bts about ourselves: but there are no doubts about the heroic timid. They have t`inis‘hed -their coursc_.` They have kept fthe faith. Now they belong to the ages, and their names shall live on for evcrmore.

But I do not mean that on this

day, an-d in this hour we can wholly forget grief. For grief is here in the hearts of this assnm-lily. Sorrow may be changed by time into something nobler than more mourning; but sorrow -must remain as long as we recall the in-ces and the forms of those who fell. We remember how we said “G-:od Luck" when we really thought “Geert bye". but We could not say it, for fear and emo- tion choked our speech. 'Pu most of their friends the feeling of recon- ciliation with doa-th has coma with time; -but to -the -broken spirits of their kins-fuik it. perhaps never comes at all. 'Dulay the flags wave, and the bands play and the bugles blow, but tin-rn are men and women here who must go mourning all their days. The loneliness does not vanish with the years, and the silent scr- row never fades away. There is no help in words. There is help only in the -thoughts that cannot--be -put into words-those thousllts which whis- per ll.. ns that the -boys -who will re- turn no more are our contribution to the advancement of civilization and to the wnrid's peace.

Yet, me-mary, fond and loyal, and

sorrow, too -tender to be expressed in words, are not the only emotions of this hou-r. There remains fpjfde. Wo are proud that these 'heroic dead who called this Province and- this City "Home", did not falter in the hour of dn-ty. Tile remembrance of y'-Uuth, and the scnso of bitter -loss. -t-he loneliness and the grief, are mingled today with exaltation. For -there is a civic pride, and a provin- cial pride and a national pride" in which vain glory and hypocrisy have no .part-a pride in kno-wing that when modern ci-vilization was mon- aced ten years ago, these msn and women whose memory today we ho- norgave their all-even unto death. That pride is untouched by all tha-t can be dons to mar the results of their sacrifice. -Since the signing of the Armistice. 7 years ago, many -persons ‘hovo"v/ondersd whether the dead did not die in vain. whether natlcns are able to -learn anything by experience. and whether inter- nnrtional tolerance and mutual trust have not vanished from the earth. In this sacred hour. if we would bo true to the memory of these who fell, we must bury our don-bts and tho post sad rlislliusionmsat which has saddened so many minds. ln -those sacred moments devoted to the memory of the dead, and the recon- struction of t,-he iivlns. there should -be no room for dobats about oar pmvlnelal and on-r national bdoty and destiny.

‘n\\n their lives And if we would keep faith with them-if we would keep brightly burning the torch they left t us. we -must dedicate ourselves anew to the service and duty for which they so gladly died

It is to the youth of today that we

must look to defend the cause for which their elders marched forward to their death and sc today standing beside this Monument to their me- mory, with their sacrifice and strug- gles in our minds and hearts, I -shall do no wrrrng to the sentiments and the Ullinions of the men and women b*~‘f0i'0 IHS.

I appreciate the holler done me in

the part of the .programme assigned as mine. It is not merely that I am to address a. large audience of people interested in a great cause, but also to have t-ho privilege of speaking a word on behalf of my r.~om.rndes -Uthose who still live among us and those who have -passed on into the larger life.

What memories throng about us to-

day-molnories that a nlnn dare not trust himself to utter. I feel, not only the sheer inability of express- ing t-he rthougllts that come to me but the hopelessness of thinkin-g the thing I.-lint is worthy of such an oc- casion. i'1`urn, then, your thoughts trom any poor -utterance of mine and contemplate once more the glorious deeds of our heroic men. Let them speak to you, for only they deserve to bc heard today. I s-peak for my comrades. therefore -pardon any per- sonal reference I may make fur I have no claim to n place in your thoughts -this day belongs to t-be mcn who saved thc Empire-the men cf the British Empire in all its parts. I-t` I s-peak of what I have seen it is only that you may have evidence at first hand and not ou heresny_

Ami right at this .point let me say

how muoh, beyond ex<prcssfon, 1 miss the confirming testimony of my llcar com-rallc, Fatller Plus McDonald, who might have spoken, as only hc could spcaknf the splendid behaviour of on-r gallant men. We who were Chap- lains on the llc-id really saw more oi' the war than the men who had .the honor of holding -the line or handling theguns. Our area of observation was lar wider and tiuiler. No' man had a better opiportunity of witnessing the grand features of a battle, to say not-hin-g or it~-' unspeakable tragedy and horror ir.-in the Chaplain of a brigtuir- of 1.1-1.1 artillery or a battal- ion ol' infantry w-ho accompanied his tncn into action. After the war some C-hulpiains came back with their faith in a state- of ecli-pse because of what they had .passed through. But many more came ‘back with their faith con- firmed and strcrktbened just because of their exvpcriences. It seemed more reasonable than over that God should redeem the world by the blood of His Son after we had witnessed this supreme effort to save it by the blood of the sons of -men.

We hold n -greater Empire than has

been sim-ply because the ‘price paid .by each generation has 'been com- mensurate with Dritaln's increasing greatness-a greatness that has never laid tho world under tribute. unless indeed. it has been the tribute of a grateful acknowledgment of self- sncrificing service. What people have we ‘conquered who have not been put under a debt -of gratitude as Britain poured out both blood and treasure to fit them for n place within the Em- pire. Truly. Britain, best fitted among the nations bo comlpel services from others, can say with undoubtcd hon- esty: "I a.m one among you all as one that serveth_” This has been made -possible to the unfcigned love and devotion of our best manhood in each generation-men of all ranks. who have had a. passion for their sovereign and the Empire. No mat- ter from which quarter the call for service has come it has been mei with an eager response an ungrud-glng suc- rilice.

Not in quite English fields Ara these on-r brothers laid to rest, Where we might deck their broken

shields

With all the flowers the dead love

best.

For some are by thc Delhi walls

And many in t-he Afghan lands

And many where the Ganges fails Through seven mouths , of shirtless sands. _

And some In Russian waters lie,

And others in the sean that are

The .portals to the East, or 'by The wlndmwapt heights of Trafalgar.

Where are the bold, the strong, the fleet. -

Where is our English chivalry? Wild grasses are their -burial 'sheet And sobbing winds their threnody.

And the records of the lata war

have proven that the quality of the liritisb lighting man has not deterior- ated but rather. if -possfble, improv- ed. ln ahlatory bristllng with records' of mighty deeds have ws anything liner than tho story of the Old Coa- tomptibtesr - Doss the "Thin Red Line" of the Orimoa hold anything over -the mon who held th, llno at Ypros amid clouds of -poison sas! And IDIM In all -than -also -a-_ _.0

and Zeebrugge " There is no denise to enhance the glory of the present at the expense of the past It is en ough to find that -past and present combine to give us one deathless army of heroic men who cheerfully gave their lives for the winning the hold ing and up building of the Empire As we celebrate thi; day we are en comlpassed with n great cloud of wit nesues. Challenge them and .hear them speak:

Who are ye? ghostly marchers And whence do your legions come? With your companies pressing onward To the beat of s -phantom drum 2

We are the dead of England Our dust lies under the lees. They buried ua deep in our battle

sleep,

They plunged us down in the seas. We went down -in the waste of waters We graippled the foe in shi-ps, On land- or sea wherc‘er we might -be Her name was on our li-ps, Living or dying. our flag still flying, Where ou-r hands had nailed it fast. We died for lthe love of England And knew we were not her last.

There is much talk of ending war

and doing away with lighting men. The League of Nations .promises to do much and yet it is quite difficult at times to keep the lpeacc even at the peace table. We are not pesnimists. but knowing history and human na- ture we do not cxvpcct an onli of war through the League of Nations. Listen to Erasmus speaking away hack in the beginning of the 16th Century. He says : 'l`-here is n pro- ject to have a Congress of Kings at Cumhrul, ‘to enter into ‘mutual cn- gngcnlents to lpreserve peace with each ot-her and throughout Europe. fiut certain persons, who get nothing by -peace and a great deal by war. th-row obstacles in the way.

Such “persons” and such "ob-

stacles" nre still with as and the end is not yet. We need to begin deeper down than the limriting -of armaments if wc would -abolish war. II-n-man selfishness, the root of all that is bash ami contemlntihle, still believes that everything can be bought with a price ami that Vintuo_ Honor, Jus- tice. Rightoousness, Liberty, God, are

only empty words.

The great crises of history bring

us back to what is best, and keo-p us from dt-spising ourselves. The Brit- ish have -been called a nation of shop- keopers, and in the world’s trade thov seldom full down on a bargain; hilt cur enoul-ics discovered that among the many things we would sell. Brit- ish honor was not included. When the war was forced ulpon us we were unprepared, but were really to light bare handed if need were, rather than sell our birthright. And so in the day when selfishness began to build greater barns and to sew larger r-muoy bags in contemplation of war- »prn‘its. then the finest manhood and the fairest womanbood of thc British Em-pire piled -high the ‘altar of Free- dom with tho sacred gifts of life and service : Glorious youth. who lightly in the, tiny of fury -put. -on England's glory and wore it like a common coat. Thank God. that in the day when blat- ant greed d-rownod all other music. with the cry of Give! Give! one strain ii could not drown. the voice of noble and devoted manhood and- womanhood l0Yously declaiming: "For Truth and Honor we gladly giye all." And God heard and gave us

back our souls again.

Address by lfev. Dr. P. (‘. Gauthier.

Rev. Dr. Gauthier in the course of

his address said:

On rising to address you I feel and

feel strongly the singular claim of this occasion. a demonstrative solemn cere- mony noble in its object and most laudable in the-motives which have inspired its promoters. We are as- sembled today to hail to salute thc memory of those men who have given _ the highest test of love of country that men can give, who have laid down their lives that we might continue to enjoy the blessings that freedom and true liberty confer on man. We are assembled lest we forget. At this sol cmn moment one consoling thought comes to the mind of those who mourn loved ones, and it is that in making the supreme sacrifice they gave th.~ greatest test af love that man can give and that today they arc enjoying the bliss which was purchased by Him who first died that His feilowmen might live. Another very consolinfr thought for every one of us is tl\at our brave boys have written high on the scroll of fame in glorious characters the name Canada, and have proven to the world that the blood of our fore- ilcars still flows thick and red in our veins.

Field Marshal Earl Haig. that great

and noble soldier. speaking at Ottawa. gave highest praise to the splendid spirit of the Canadian boys in the great war, and said “that while Ent!- land owes a deep debt of gratitude to the boys who fought for her it is to the mothers of the Empire who sent their sons that the nrt-.ate-St triblltf should he paid." Yes we should ever remember our valiant boys and their brave deeds. To them the call to arms was like the cry of the Crusaders. Gnd wills it. But the Canadian mothers ln sirius their bers mails ii greater sacrifice than even the boys themselves. 'Tis true that all of them were willing and ready to lay down their lives for their country. and many of them did so. hi" i'he°° i’°¥B W0" desrar to their mothers than life itself. hence the subllmity of the mothers sacrifice. How_il.ll'0liK» h°"' “ment must have been their patriotism; their love of country. that mYBl0i'|°\"i 30"' timsat imprinted in the very soul of man, that sacred flame enkindlcd in the heart of every mail <'0mil1ll IDU’ the world. Love of country. tender as the love of san mr mother. love unwil- igh, disinterested, shrinking from no mc,.m¢e_ sewing no rnwnrd save coun- try-'rr homn-, eountry's tliery. Take patriotism away. the soul of the na- tion hns fled, health and beauty have left the nstion's countenance. To a country it ismoro than wid Bild NEC- ious stone, it is above citadola and warships.

Lot us love Canada our countl'!.

What a grand heritage, what a mas- nilleent patrimony, is ours. extending in its unrivalled magnificence from the rock girl. shores of the Atisatie I0

the placid Pacific on the west. - __

of his address. iiiliii 5**

We are met here today, in memory

of those who in a critical llclll” Of their couniry's necll rel-vli0llii'~'d 1° their r:ountry's call:

Theirs not to reason why 'i`i\cirs but to do and die.

Ours; be it new to pay a just tri-

bnle lo their tle\'otion. and in doing so net an cxannplc of -patriotism for our emulation.

They went l'orth to war. They it-it

behind their holnes severing -perhaps .hc dearest tics that bind strong hu- man lu-arts, sacrificing comforts and l"x'\‘~'~=--subjecting lllemselves lo hardships and lprivntiens in unaccus- lomed surroundings with the pros-imc( 'ol meeting death in its most hideous shape. For this wc have erected this munumf.-nt as a grateful tribute.

They wont forth to war. 'Many 0!

you have witnessed their departure lu those. stirring days w-hen with mar- tial music and you-r cheers of encnlr- agcruv.-nt tlrly left the shores of our luvtli Island anti their souls and ours \-'--rc thrilled with generous erno-'.i~»n. Iiow dlli`c»rt-ut were the scenes pre- sl-ntl-ll fo me in the -many Military Ilospitals in wbich,I served when I saw those same mon struggle in death with horrible wounds and wasting fav- or. Tilt-ir shouts of joy were changed _to y_,muns of pain und their vigor:-ua flrnrr. wlliclz had gone forth in the s'rvn~;lil of manhood were ro.iu':l»-l lo

sunrlous oi their former solves.

'i‘lll-_\' w--nt forth in obed~lenf-.l- to

their t~ountr_\"s call. In nbc-dicnf‘o lo thu valet- ot n,1ti‘ority_ The voice of authority in .peace and in war it la L-vol the some -thi- voicc of limi. imagine the world without it. Tile ar-my <lc-generates into an irrespon- sible mob. Tho state is but a strug- gling mass of humanity, social exist- l-nec becomes n chaos, authority speaks. and lo! as when thc Almighty Inoatlll-ti over -primeval dt-ops thi-re is nrdr»r_ The voice of authority is thc voice of on-r country, it is the voice ui' (ind. Obedience to aunlru"i'_y is paxriotlun in its pure sense. To- llav wr- honor those who proved their patriotism by weary mn:--eh, hy hun-

ger and thirst and by death.

Let us not be misled. The :patriot-

ism of the lmgles bla-rc, of fluttering l’-ug.; and of bursting bombs is not the only vmtrintism. nor even the highest. The patriotism of peace is essential to our <‘fn|ntry's prosperity. He who vpbuilds a nations welfare in all tl.nt makes for its dc-velopment in civilization. the man who by pat- icnt tact preserves the integrity of his home by a self-sacrificing effort, _rears his family by the peaceful heartb- slde. as well as the mother whoss aspirations soar not after notoriety but reach out after duty. The cltlsen, innorru-ptible in the exercise of poli-

tical prlvléeges. and thc teller who triumphs y law shilling patience rather t-ban by lawless destruction. All these are che truest. the most con- sistent and the most necessary ele- ment of a nntion‘a prosperity and Rinry_ These make nations, the sol- diers destroy n threatening foe. Those men to whose memory has been er- ected t.bls monument pass to you-tho torch of patriotism. And lot lt be said that their patriotism of war has been enhanced -by your patriotism of ance.
