Sunday Battles in History.

Some Of the fiercest engagements Of
the present war have been fought on
Sunday, the so-called day of rest, for the
German seems to like that day for a
bombing raid on some defenseless
town. as well as for much bigger oper-
ations at the front, possibly on ac-
count Of the old adage about the bet
ter the day the better the deed.
The fiercest of the battles in the
Wars of the Roses was actually fought
on Palm Sunday, observes London An
swers. This was the Battle Of Tow
ton in 1851, and ten years later the
Battle of Barnet was fought on East
or Sunday. Families was fought on
Whltsunday, 1708.
Both Bulls Run and Shiloh, in the
American Civil war, were fought on
Sunday. 1t was on Sunday that Well
ington Issued that famous order. "Ci-
udad Rodrigo must be carried by as
sault this evening"
A glad Sunday for the British EN-.
pire was that loud Sabbath" when
Wellington defeated Napoleon at Wa
terleo in the last attempt on the part
OF one man to dominate the world.
