oe value of planning living memorials to the nation’s
heroes has been recognized in the minds of our people
since World War I. Avenues and parks have been beau-
tified in their honor by many civic minded individuals
and organizations. The end of the present conflict will
mark the beginning of a new era in memorial creation,
which, if properly organized and administered, will
result in worthwhile memorials of lasting beauty.

This booklet has been prepared to provide suggestions
for individuals and organizations who wish to plan
memorials to those who have made sacrifices in the war.
It contains suggestions for the organization of com-
mittees, planning architectural and landscape features,
administering funds . . . ways and means of securing
cooperation and official support.
