IN these immortal words the 

 greatest American set us 

 the example of an ever- 

 sacred Memorial dedicated to 

 the nation's heroes. 



Every community— city, town 

 or village £roup — wants to 

 prove loyal pride by erecting 

 memorials to those who staked 

 home and future, life itself, 

 that Liberty should not perish 

 from the earth. 



And now you too, perhaps, are 

 thinking in terms of memorial. 

 For the time has come a&ain 

 — the heroes of the greatest 

 war in the world's history call 

 on you for remembrance! 



Every monument you raise, 

 every memorial you build, will 

 be a reminder and a warning 

 that this nation must so govern 

 itself as to continue in stead- 

 fast loyalty to the cause and 

 the men whose valor you com- 

 memorate. 



"Lest we forget" — let their 

 names and deeds forever stand 

 in the sig,ht of grateful people, 

 a lesson in patriotism, a g,uide 

 to coming fenerations. 



Let us send a copy of a book 

 on "Rock of A&es." It is free 

 to those contemplating a family 

 or public memorial.
