GENERAL FOCH TELLS
OF BATTLEOF MARNE
Standing On Battlefield Re

By W. S. Forrest
(United Press staff correspondent)
On the Battlo Field of the Marne,
Sept. 6. (Delayed) Standing on hills
whose scars of shell and human sacri
fice are now mercifully buried beneath
luxurious verduro, Prance's hero of the
Marne, General i'och, today told a no
table ascinblage how -the struggling
French armies rolled back the Oeruian
horde and saved the nation.
It was a solemn ceremony of recon-secration-
Foch stood on the very hill
on which in 1914 he received and per
sonally executed Marshal Joffre's or
ders tor the victorious battle, .tie spoue
wiltih simple, soldiery diroctjies, but
his auditors were swayed by tho vigor
of his phrases.
Foch's audience includod President
Poincare, Premier Ribot, Field Marshal
Joffro, Minister of War Painleve, Gen
eral Petain. commander in chief of
France 's armies, General Steeg and a
score of other notables, including eignt
French cenerals.
Bcforo their eyes stretched a beau
tiful rolling country, now alive with
2rowine crops. The assemblage besido

hands a dozen or more times in the des
perate tide of battle- Below the hot sun
qhiminered on. tho gleaming horns of a
aetachment of trumpeters blaring forth
a nenn of victory while cavalry, lined
up in formal array, flashed their
swords to a salute.
Marshal Joffre. as usual, .avoided
the forcfteld of this brilliant assem
blage. Wearing the same gold brawled
cap he wore in America and with the
same blue tunic ana rou trousers, no
remained silent throughout the trip to
the hill and the recital with which Mb
subordinate, General Foch, thrilled the
assemblage. He stood up in the bacit
"round tho mon whose genius presid
ed over all the great operations of the
Marne silently and yet interestedly
hearing every word of the recital.
After the meeting on the hill, the
party toured tho battle ground below.
Here and there it was dotted with
crosses on the graves of heroes who
had died usually dug on the very spot
where the man had lallen.

AMERICAN'S PLEASED
WITH FRENCH GUNFIRE
Exhibition by Its Accuracy
Creates Deep Impression
OnSanimies
By J. W. Pegler
(United Press staff correspondent)
Headquarters of the American Army
in France, Sept, 7. There wasn't a
single American Sammy today who
wasn't willing to step right out under
French gunfire and go at the Germans.
Yesterday's exhibition of French ar
tillery fire made a deep impression on
the men.
Thousands of American soldiers sat
on the rim of a mammoth amphithea
tre and watched guns harrow a big
section of the peaceful countryside in
what probably wag the greatest mock
artillery battle ever staged.
Stretching across a valley a mile
wide through alternating green and
brown stripes, like a carpet, were tne
Rupprecht''' trenches. When the guns
behind the "American lines" began to
rear, the trenches were hidden under
geyscds of smoke and shattered soil-
General oibert and otner American anu
French generals observed the bombard
ment from a point near a field tele
phone, where messages to tho batter
ies were sent, demanding an ever in
creasing fire.
The American soldiers only witness
ed the "front" end of the artillery
feat. The euns themselves were sta
tioned in a forest, hidden from prying
eyes. The Americans did see one phase
of the artillery warfare when ammuni
tion limbers, deceptively camouiiaKcu,
scurried along a nearby road.
Interest of the troops in the bombard
ment was intense.-Toward the last it
was noted one stake of wire entangle
ment remained untouched. A command
was telephoned to the gunners. Anoth
er single roar and the stake anu its
tangled wires vanished.
"Attaboy!" yelled the delighted
Americans.

"There are more than a million war widows in Germany. They can

"All the widows must, therefore, get married at once, and prefer
ably to wounded or otherwise unfit soldiers- They may rest assured
that the national committee for the remarriage of war widows will
handle the business with the je:uisitc discretion. The committee will

Memory
Sarah E. Bell
tune had been less kind- to than herself.
She entered into the hopes and aspira
tions of the people of our city in .tho
pioneer period, lent encouragement to
all who came in her way. It is entirely
fitting and proper tliWt her remains
should be brought to Salem for burial.
In tho midst of the friends of her youth
and maturer years she will rest from
the toils and vicissiluoros that are tho
lot of all. In plain view of Mt. Hood
and the snow capped peaks of the Cas
cade range of mountains she will occupy
a place appointed after life's labors.
She has made her way into the distant
valleys of eternity and all that it mortal
of her will bo brought from the met
ropolis of the nation to be buried among
the old, old friends of long ago.
In the death of Mrs. Bell the past
history of Salem passes in review be
fore me and I recall the sturdy virtues
of the pioneer men and women and par
ticularly those of this good woman. She
will be long remembered by the old
friendsfor her sincerity of purpose and
high ideals.
