BERNARD PARTRIDGE.
"Kossovo Day is the Serbian National Day"

HEROIC SERBIA

At the Battle of Kossovo in 1389, Christianity and Freedom were overwhelmed in the Balkans, but the Serbs have each year since the kept the day in stern determination to be free once more. They drove back the Turks, they twice drove back the Austrians. To-day, Serbia, exiled but not disheartened, asks us to join in the celebration of her National Day, as a pledge of the Allies' Victory and Anglo-Serbian Friendship.
