Another Day of the Dead occurs during the coming week. when Armistice Day will be celebrated. The celebration of this day is in 11 sense! the most remarkable legacy of the Great War. These who remember the original day of the armistice, and the wild scenes that characterised it in London will appreciate the contrast bc- tween that day and the anniver- saries. The evolution Was a gradual one. During the first few years rejoicing was the predomin- ant note nspectful memory suc- -ceede it-gow prayerful characteristic of the celebration. In this year, as in previous years. there will be a special Mass and Service of Remembrance in St. Joseph's Church at 9 am
