165 Sheila carries daddy's gas-mask, Peter carries daddy's gun. Mother's chattering on and laughing As if parting were just fun. She's put apples in his pocket He's got photos in his book, When he isn't busy fighting, He'll have time to have a look. Dad is going to fight for England, For a world where men are free, Better times for all but—mostly He'll be fighting for these three. SALUTE THE SOLDIER The soldier is giving up all he holds most dear. What can we do to show our gratitude? We can salute the soldier by saving.
