FELL AS HEROES
I’AHIS, July L'4. Thou and'- <>l
miles from their maternal hearth, the
American dead, heroes of the second
battle of the Marne who have sue
i limited from grievous wounds in
I I'aris hospitals, are mourned daily by
j French mot iters, fathers or sisters win
have tell the sorrow of the Kindred
of these heroes
Daily the funerals leave the city
hospitals for the little cemetery tied!
rated to Americans hy the city ol
Suresnes. located on a hill to the
I west of Paris, overlooking the cap
Hal. Daily the Republican Guard, in
i their picturesque and historic mili
tary attire, march forth to the funeral
to bestow France's regard upon these
Americans. American marines art as
the guard of honor, and though no
volley is fired because it is forbidden
by the French authorities, the Ameri
can bugler sounds ' taps."
A service is first held In the little
chapel in the hospital. Protestant
chaplains officiate over the dead ol
their faith and Catholic priests over
theirs The hospital organizations
such as can be spared, Including
nurses, orderlies, clerks and doctors
attend the service
The liodies are borne from the
chapel to ponderous army motoi
trucks. As each body is brought tc
the conveyance, the Republican Guard
and the marines present arms. Wher
all the dead have been plat ■ d upor
their military bier the process!,in tc
the cemetery starts At the head art
the chaplains in motor ear Ther
follow the motor trucks, and last the
guard of honor.
The coffins are draped with Ameri
ran (lags. Karh one hems twe
wreaths, one given hy the republic
of France and another hy tin city of
Paris. Tricolor ribbons hind th<
wreaths. In letters of gold, 'he rib
lions are marked, “ Aux Defer tits tit
la Patrie."
The little procession winds its way
along the boulevards. The French
know its significance. Without excep
tion. as it passes, every pedestrian
stops, uncovers and bows in hnnage
, to th«3 Am*ri«*«in hrroei*.
Reaching the summit of the hill ol
Suresnes, the interment of the bodies
begins. A crow d of Frenc h mot hen
and sisters gathers at the graves
They reverently listen to th*- chap
Jains pronounce the last words, and
heavy of heart, they feel the sorrows
of those thousands of miles away.
The American bugler takes hb
place and slowly sounds "taps." Al
the final tone the command :s giver
and the* military escorts return t«
their posts in t li«* city. The littk
crowd of mothers and sister repair
to their homes, with thought" of the
mothers and sisters in Amen a.
The* Suresnes cemetery is the gif'
of the Suresnes municipality to tin

It is reported that Herman news

toons in which I'ncle Sam is pictured]

running alter tin almighty dollar to
heed the calls ot help from tin* allies.
Well, let the Hermans go on fool

rising fears of the Herman public that
I'ncle Sam “will get them if the\ don't
watch out.”
We know and they'll know before
many moons that we are earnest
about winning this war. from the first
soldier we sent across the wafer to
'tight in the trenches down to the last
man. woman or child left to fight the
battle here at home
i
; If they want proof let them heed,
the response of the country in the
past few weeks since we heard the]
] call of the allies and our soldiers for
more wheat.
Let them know that our leading ho
tel and restaurant men arose In a
body and declared that from now un
til the next harvest their menus would
he w heat less.
Let them read of our towns, cities,
counties and even whole states that
pledged themselves to go vvheatless
when they learned the soldiers needed
their share of wheat
Let them hear that many Individ
uals. jobbers and retailers, of their
own volition, turned over to their
federal food administration all the
wheat flour they had on hand or had
already ordered which would make
their total supply above their barest
present necessities
Arkansas alone in a few days turned
over to its federal food administra
tion more than two and a half mil
lion pounds of wheat flour t«» ship to
the allies A large percentage of this
flour was turned in by individual con
Burners after an appeal by the ted
oral food administrator for Arkansas.!
'in which he said that city people ha\
ing more than twenty-four pounds or
country people having more than for
ty-eight pounds of wheat flour would
be unpatriotic and would hinder Amer
ica's prosecution of the war
Yes. if Hermany wants to know
whether or not we are in this war to!
win a victory, let her know a few of1
, these things. Let the kaiser read the
letter the food administration recently
received from a farmer in Kentucky,
in which he offered to give up his on
tire household supply of wheat, say
ing simply. “I am offering you what
you want of what I have."
In those few words is the spirit of
America toward the allies. We say to.
them. "Take what you want of what
we hare.*9
\nd when they answer. “We want
I all of your wheat." why. of course,
we are going to give* them till of our
wheat while we use vvheatless recipes
until the war is won.
