Editor's note: 'This, the third Anzac number of The School Paper, is issued that the story of the Anzacs may be read again, and the deeds of those heroic men whose patriotism, bravery, and endurance were put to the supreme test for the first time during the present war may be vividly recalled to mind. The story is one that Australasians will not willingly let die.'
