EXTRACTS FROM SPEECH

(September, 1918)

Canada's war record is made, though not completed. Nothing she can do in the future will detract from her great past in this world struggle. She has shown herself a true daughter of Great Britain. She has spared neither sons nor treasure to help her Alma Mater to save the world.

. . . . . . . . . .

Well done, Canadians, you are a great people, and you may proudly stand among the nations who are saving the world.

William Howard Taft
