ers of e-historic times; then to the bat
tlefeld at Irish Bend, La, where he tried
to make the place seem as it did in the
sixties, but failed. Asking an old gentle
man, who lived near the place, a few
questions the changes were explained
and an officer from the ranks of the Blue
met cavalryman of the army of the
Gray in friendly conversation. Col. Her
sey brought with him from this field of
battle three bullets he picked up and pre-
sented them to his regiment with the re-
mark that they should be thankful that
they had not hit them. 1t was on this
field that Col. Hersey lost the use of his
right arm as later explained by Pres Morse.
From here he went to New Orleans, to
Chattanooga, to Lookout Mountain, and
other historic places all of which he most
vividly described. But it was in the des-
cription of the log cabin at Hodgenville,
Ky., the birthplace of the beloved Lin
coin, that the Colonel became most earnest

Mount Vernon, Gettysburg and then came
North. He is now 81 years of age, but is

and responded with few apt remarks

did more than fight, bleed and die. They

HOW THE CANADIANS
 TOOK C0URCELETTE

The following story of how the Can adians took Courcelette, on the Somme front. is taken from T. Ps Journal.
 On Friday, September 18th, the as- sault was out to take Courcelette and get across some of the main comun- ieations of the Thiepval defence. On the morning of the 18th. then, the Can adians-amongst them a number of French Canadian-and some Irish troops massed ready to attack. And the Bavarians came out of Courcelette and attacked themselves. There was very bitter fights with bayonet and bomb. and the Bavarians were able to get footing into some of our works. At the moment when they were con graduating themselves on their gain, 6:20 struck, and to their wonder they were swept away. engulfed, entirely obliterated in the rush of massed thou sands charging up to Courcelette.
 Creme de Menthe"
 The German position was exceeding ly strong If the trenches had been battered, the enemy had made full use of innumerable shell holes all along his front These shell holes were made into minor forts; machine guns and men were holding them staunchly There was also the sugar refinery here, an incredibly strong pocket of machine guns which, the Germans reckoned, would account for anything the British could send out. The Canadians went to attack with a rush. They fought among the shell holes, they worried out the pockets of resistance. but they had a hard task. It was not until the third wave of attack came up that they broke into the outskirts of the village And Creme de Menthe" was largely responsible for their gain.
 Creme de Menthe'' was not an in- of the drinking law, but tank" It was the Canadians own, peculiar tank It went strolling over the field, with it's awful and ludicrous solemnity before the advance, tearing up wire, sitting across trenches and sweeping them clean on either side with machine gun fire, flattening out machine gun posts and the like And in the course of it's perambulations it saw the impregnable sugar. refinery of Courcelette. It walked up to that i'm spot. It leaned against the wall and the wall went down in dust md litter, Then it went inside. What happens when a large, serene tank" gets into well-built factory garnished with machine guns, can be better im- agined then described Walls went down and sand bags were scattered; in two minutes the impregnable pos tion was ringing with the blessed word ' 'Kamerad." The Canadians went up lt rush, swept Courcelette clean, and went off on silent, Red Indian parties to stalk any defence lurking to shell hole or dug-out. The Canadians won for themselves that other imperishable laurel that day, and a tribute of des- perate terror from the Germans they stalked

TOYS OF HONEYMOON DAYS
AZ a Couple Grows Old, the Memory
Helps to Brighten the Journey

Honeymoons have been the fashion
so long their origin seems enshrouded
in the mists of antiquity.
Just who ever started the first hon

ton was without doubt Il happy one.
June being the accepted month for
weddings, naturally 1t is the time when
most honeymoons are taken.
II Is the grand climax of the we'd
dings. The bride has been looking for
ward to it for months, maybe for
years.

ly Married--IIave Heart"
Honeymoons are the happiest times
Of the married state. Can't you look
back across the years and see yourself
when you had the heavy role In that
little drama of your lifeP Can't you
see again the sweet little star who
played opposite you, so timidly. so
trustngly, as she kept one eye on her
suitcase and the other on your pocket
book?
All, Time, you are heartless old
thief. You steal away our years Of
dew.kissed happiness; you rub out the
rose bloom of youth and you rub In the
wrinkles, but you can't reach the hui
man heart, you old crook-thank God
you can't touch that, or you would age
| that too.
The heart may remain young for
ever, for we are only rs old as we feel.
All you can do is whiten the hair and
rumple the skin, bend the back and
make slow the step, but when a couple
love each other, their hearts often turn
back to the honeymoon days and 1t
helps brighten the journey the rest Of
the way.
Here's to the honeymoon-may II

Literal Obedience.

Little Nelly, while ut the seashore
with her mother, was very fond OF
making calls upon some ladies In a
neighboring cottage, and the frequency
with which she would bring home lit
tie presents of cards and pictures, etc.,
led her mother to fear that she might
be In the habit Of asking for these
things. She, therefore, gave the child
strict orders never to do any such a
thing. The next day Nelly returned
from her visit laden down with pretty
odds and ends Of various sorts, and
when her mother called her and ques
toned her severely II she had asked
for these things, she replied, with con
