French, Recklessly Brave,
Storm Foes MtrenChment

The surgeons here are WORKING night
and day attempting the impossible feat
of treating all wounds Immediately.
The latest estimate places the Ger
man losses at from 5000 to 10000, but
no accurate idea of the French dead
is ava liable.
No census has been taken OF the
wounded in Basic, but in my opinion
they must number fully 1000, and
probably more.
Special trains are now running from
Basic to Mulheim, st. Ludwig and
other nearby towns, transporting the
wounded TO places where more careful
attention can be paid to them.

MOTHERS DAY.

Every day in the year ought to be
Mothers Day, for there is debt
which the world, which humanity.
owes to the mothers that it can never
fully repay, strive as it will. So
when there comes day set apart in
particular as Mothers Day it should
be fully observed, fully honored.
Sunday was that day, and all
throughout this and there were in the
churches special services in which
the themes were concerning Mother.
1t is rich theme, one that should
bring forth the very best in any man
whose discourse is on such a subject.
But while we honor the memories
of the mothers who have gone, let US
do reverence, and service, to the
mothers who are with us. They may
be young, they may be old, but they
need all the love Of those whom with
their suffering they have brought into
life, and they win not always be with
us.
So every 10th Of May wear a car
nation in honor of mother and as you
pin it on, do so with the determina-
tion to love her more, to serve her
more, to more and more and more en-
deavor to make her life tone glad
sweet song" And with the day take
this injunction to thy heart:
Honor thy father and thy
mother; that thy days may be
long upon the land which the
Lord thy God, giyeth thee.

THE TENTH OF MAY.

Sunday was the Tenth of May and
it will be fttingly observed in all
parts of the State in honor of the
brave men who wore the grey. It is
a beautiful custom, that is setting
a day aside to be consecreated to a
cause and the thorough-going and
earnest manner in which this is done
in the South is evidence of splendid
service performed by the women of
the South through whose efforts these
annual memorial exercises were COM
menced and by whom they have been
faithfully maintained.
The men of the Confederacy de-
serve all the honor that has been or
will be bestowed on them. The SOL
dier of no war made a more glorious
record, and it is we'll for the present
generation-as it will be for the sue
ceedlng generations-to pause and
contemplate the shining deeds of val
or and fortitude which made the period
from 1861 to 1865 memorable in the
history of the country.
And the day would not fill its iarg-
est and highest purpose If it did not
result in stirring the men and the
women of today to, emulation of the
splendid qualities of manhood and
womanhood so broadly evinced during
the dark days Of the War Between the
States. That was may not again curse
this fair land is the hope of practi-
cally all our people, but in times of
peace and in the tasks of everyday
life there are opportunities for the
display Of courage and fidelity to duty.
and these should be the more gener-
ally ayailed of as a result of having
called to mind the achievements Of
our boys" in '61-'65.
