Dear Mr. Allsop
In the year 1914 a vision of noble endeavour, [[?]] revelation
of the hidden possibilities of our nature, broken before the
Australian people in the Soldiers subsequently named the Anzacs,
and again young Australians are reaching towards a goal, an ideal
which humanity must surely eventually reach.
