AN editorial in the St. Louis Re-
public os Tuesday, headed, "Lest We
Forget" is deserving of special men
ton, and I wish it could be placed be-
fore men-and women-the world
over. Its sentences are full of pathos
and induce to serious thoughts him
who reads them. And, as he thinks,
he sorrow that humanity seems in
capable of attaining the plane where
will and justice go hand in hand, and
love is ruler absolute. We are told it
was SO in the first instance: alas, that
the Garden of Eden was SO imperfect
ypeopled!

GERMANS DESTROY
FAMOUS BUILDINGS
THE MARKET PLACE AND CITY
HALL OF YPRES BATTERED BY
VIOLENT COMMANDMENT
Furious Blizzard Prevents Action by
Infantry, so Big Guns Are Put
Into Action and Do
Great Damage.

Paris.-The German guns have de
stroyed the famous Halles (Marke
Place., and city hall OF Ypres. The
French war office made this an
nouncement Sunday night. adding thai
the havoc was wrought as result OF
a most violent bombardment Heavy
cannonading was reported also at
Scissors and at Vailly, on the Aisne
but the greatest damage was done at
Ypres.
The historic Halles was the most
considerable edifice of its kind in Bel
GUM and dated from the year 1900.
The three early Gothic facades Of the
Halles des Drapiers, or cloth hall
proper, were OF three stories and
were flanked by corner turrets. 1t
was in the cloth hall that some of the
finest examples OF the cloth making
industry, which, in Ypres, dates back
to the eleventh century, were exhib-
tied The east side OF the Halles was
bounded by a charming renaissance
structure erected in 1620-24.
The Hotel Deville (town hall) was
an unpretentious structure dating
originally from the fourteenth century
and located at the north end Of the
cloth hall.
The day was confined entirely to
artillery activity. The fury of the
billiards. which have been raging in
Flanders and in France for the past
four days precluded the possibility OF
action by infantry except trench work,
which was carried on under great diff
ficulties, owing to the frozen condi-
ton of the ground.
The dead and wounded have been
reclaimed from the No Mans Land"
between the trenches. and great
trains Of the latter have been sent
south, where the victims may receive
succor long delayed. The dead have
been inferred in long trenches, some
times made by blasting the frozen
ground, but behind most Of the fight
ing lines excavations for burials have
not been found lacking, for the hos
tile shells from cannon and mortar
have torn great holes In the ground
where they struck.
In Flanders the flooded region has
become a great field of ice and the
German trenches have become unten-
able because OF the untold agonies the
troops are compelled to suffer TO oc
cupy them. In these bitches the ice
has no chance to form because of the
~ q - rt fr-or mill

and limbs are reported to have de
manded the attention of surgeons.
