I HAVE written this book in the hope that it will
help those to whom we owe so much—the men
while hearths anddisabled protecting our homes
from the ravages of the savage enemy.
It is sad for those left behind to mourn the loss
fightof a soldier killed in the War. But his is
over ; the wounded men, hindered by their injuries,
is beinghave still to fight the battle of life. Much
done to help them. Their Gracious Majesties, the

inception of the French Ecoles Professionnelles,
which are in their turn a testimony to the humanity
and genius of our gallant Ally. I have also to
thank Miss Mabel Lawrence for reading the proofs.
