In this sad hour of the world's history, when so many homes have beenbroken up, and so many hearts burdened with heavy sorrows, it iscomforting to think of the many heroic souls who, throughout thestruggle, have gone about their daily tasks with unfailing courage andcheerfulness, and by so doing have helped to carry the burdens of theworld, and to sustain other hearts as heavy as their own.
It is comforting, also, to know that there are many instances of happyreunions after long and unspeakable anxieties, adventures, and trials.
This story of two little Belgian refugees is based upon the actualexperience of two Belgian children, and the incident of the locket isquite true.
