1 Jan 1945

252 LET the BELLS RING but ... Let the bells ring for the half is done ! But after the bells a task remains. The roof is safe, the fireside smiles, but sons are away from their homes, away ten thousand miles ; Burma, Borneo, Hong Kong, Singapore. Though half is done still half remains. While they still fight shall we forget— with a world to mend and wounds to heal ? The bells that ring to bid us rejoice they also ring with a graver voice: a sterner summons no man may shirk to new beginnings and nobler work.
