Pressed en All Sides by
' the Enemy
one of the Austrian generals in an early war sent
a message te the Commanding Officer asking
whether he should retire. With a pencil the
General addressed wrote as the reply
the One Werd "FORWARD"
That word is almost an immortal. It spells
courage and duty. Whatever opposition or
however strong the conditions te be faced,
Forward, always and ever Forward, begets
confidence and overcomes all obstacles.
It is a fine word te engrave en the memory.
Fling it out every day, and keep step.
