THE WHITEHALL CENOTAPH.
How remarkably the monument in Whitehall to “The Glorious Dead" has appealed to the public is shown by the fact that, except possibly during the silent hours of the nights, it has never been without its gathering of men and Women paying hoxiiage at the beautiful shrine since it was uncovered base. As it has been notioe:l, some of the illSC.l'ipltiOlls on the o~a"l’ds attached to the Wreaths are most: pathetic, but one effect has been given. accidentally, to a Cenotaph which is more poignand still. It is «a splash of crimson colouring on one :of the tiers of the exquisitely modtelle-d monument caused by the dye running from some of the draping. The effect on the pure Whiteness of the monument is a vivid symbol of its meaning.
