AMERICAN TROOPS EQUAL
TO BEST EUROPE PRODUCES

LONDON. June 5.-Few communi-
ques issued by the French command
have contained a statement more
vital to the ultimate issue of battle
than those references to soldiers of
America in action" writes the military
correspondent of the Daily Express
Commenting editorially, the same
newspaper says that Germans may
read their certain doom in the spirit
and skill of Americans in the fight at
Veuilly. Germany will find herself in
the last great fight, faced by troops
equal to the best Europe ever produced.

ing to you to express my deep
and heartfelt sympathy 10 your
affliction. Knowing your hus.

whose place will not be easily
filled in the world; how impossi-
BILE to fill in his home. You are.
even ia your loss, fortunate in
this; he left behind him a name
unsullied, and which should be
a priceless legacy to his friends
and to you. His life was so pure
and his faith fitness so undoubt-
ed, every one knew him o be an
honest and upright citizen. |
hope he has gone to the home
prepared for those VITO love and
faithfully serve Him; ard il so
this should comfort you. You
can have the hope of meeting
him one day in a better and q
happier union than the ties that
bound you here on earth, You
will know no more parting there.
pray God to temper your af-
Fiction and and give you strength
to endure it. May He. in his
own good time give the peace
that will enable you to wait
with patience until He shall call

If | can be of any assistance
