WHY?
by Everet Bednorz
A sorrowing widow, having a
memorial erected in memoiv of
hqr late husband, had the follow-
ing inscription carved on it:
“Good-bve, Henry, my light has
gone out.”
Three months later when she
remarried, some wit added to the
inscription:
“But I have struck another
match.”
Mother! Did you raise you boy
to be a soldier?
Did you raise him to fight and die
—to be a hero?
Mother! Did you struggle and
suffer to be a death’s hand-
maid—•
To raise a son to be a murderer—
to kill or to be kiJJJed?
Mother! Would your dear boy’s
patriotism comfort you?
Would you with loving hands
care for him—
His mangled body and twisted
limb— his blasted face?
Mother! Did you raise your boy
to be Mar’s slave? t
Did you raise him to toil for life
to bear the costs?
Or did you raise him to live a
life in service of God?
To fight life’s battle, to win a
place in the world of men.
