MEMORIAL DAY
Takes on a New Significance For Us
All This Year, and Let II BE
Observed Generally.

More than half ventury ago was
fought the war between the blue and
the gray, which welded the States
into one mighty, inseparable Union.
Today from the Atlantic to the Paci-
fc and from the Northern boundaries
to the waters of the Gulf of Mexico on
the South, we know but one country
and one flag, the United States Of
America and the Stars and Stripes.
While we prepare to pay our trib-
ute to the few remaining old and
feeble veterans who bore arms on
both sides in that memorable strug-
gle, those who died on the field Of
honor, or have since passed to their
rest, their sons and their grandsons
are marching shoulder to shoulder,
and taking part in an infinitely
greater struggle-a struggle not for
the preservation of nation, but for
the preservation of world democ-
racy, humanity and freedom for all
time to come.
The annual observance of Memorial
Day this year will have deeper sig
nificance to every loyal American
than ever before, and there is greater
need for honoring the heroes of the
Civil War than ever in the past A
nationwide tribute will prove to
those who left home, family,
kindred and friends, who have sacri-
feed all to serve their country y
home or abroad that they will not
soon be forgotten.
Memorial Day takes on new sig
nificance for us all in this year OF
grace, 1918. In past years we have
laid our flowers on the graves of the
dead in loving and patriotic appre-
citation of the fact that they saw
their duty and did it. Thursday the
flowers will be laid as usual, but they
will be but the withered blossoms ol
the soul unless we lay them with tho
determination to do our duty in th'
crisis that cOnfronts our country
even as they did theirs. 1t will be
day for the searching of souls; for {
purging of all sloth and unwilling
ness to do our part; of noble shame
at our failure heretofore to live NJ
to the greatness of the opportunity
which exists for every real American
1t will be a day for manhood and fol
memories.
In past years Memorial Day il
Maysville has been indifferently OBJ
served. 1t should be different now
1t will be different this time next year
after the Huns have been extermin
ated, and the dead bodies of some o
Mason county's boys have beef
brought home Then we will SCI

HUNS ADVANCING
DASH FOR PARIS BELIEVED TO
BE FOES INTENTION
Enemy Forces Passage Of Aisne Riy.
er, Compelling British to Fall
Back, and Attacks Of Great
Strength Are Being Made
Again Today Along
the Entire Front.

The Germans, striking south from
the Chemin -des- Danes after carrying
that important ridge in the opening
of their defensive yesterday, have
pushed on rapidly and effected a
crossing of the Aisne River between
Vailly and Berry-au-Bac.
This represents front of nearly
twenty miles along which the armies
of the Crown Prince engaged in this
great drive have crossed the Aisne.
In addition they have apparently
pushed at points some distance south
of the river and are striking for the
River Vesle, which parallels the Aisne
along the great part of this front
at an average distance of about five
miles.
The Veslc, at its most southerly
point in this sector, is approximately
ten miles from the German point of
departure, but the German penetra-
ton is apparently considerably short
of this depth.
The battle is continuing fiercely
along the whole Aisne front today,
the brunt of it being borne by the
French. before whose lines there was
seemingly the greatest concentration
of the enemy effort The French COM
munications are left in this sector,
and the probability is that reserves
are speedily being sent up to the
threatened points to place before the
Germans force that can effectively
top them.
The British, when the battle started,
apparently were holding a line ap-
rroNimately twelve miles long, be-
tween Bermicourt, seven miles north
'rest of Rheims and Caronelle across
'he Aisne to the northwest, the line
straddling the Aisne at about midway
this distance, near Berryau-Rac.
There is no indication that the Brit
ish right flank was materially affected
by the shock. The left flank. however
felt the effect of the impact upon the
French front further west, where q
cfossing of the Aisne was forced, ant
the British left was oblidged to fall
back in conformity. The British line
to the west of Bcrry-au-Bac is now
wholly south of the Aisne, according
to the indications in today's ofIicia
statements.

The last efforts of the designers in
suits for this summer are eloquent of
two influences. One of them Is the
adaptation of styles to silk fabrics-in-
Guiding several novel weaves-and the
other proclalms the conservation of
wool, carried to Its limit, In suits of
cloth for ordinary street wear. The
result is a great difference In style
between suits of silk and suits of wool.
The wool suit must repress all ambi-
tions In the direction of embellish-
ments that use up cloth and must even
curtail the length of coats and width
of skirts. But the suits made of silk
are under no such obligations. They
may be as ample and elaborate as the
designers ideas.
The maker of the little cloth suit
pictured has accepted the inevitable
gracefully and. it appears, has used
something less than the allotted four
yards of goods. But he has managed
to put lot of youthful style into 1t.

count of Red Cross work in France is
taken:

Perkins, Red Cross commissioner to
France. on the work of civil relief
and restoration done in France daring
the month of February.
During this one MONTH substantial

other war sufferers. This number in
cluded about twenty thousand persons
In the devastated areas, seven thou

lnces and nearly six thousand under
nourished Paris school children. More
than twenty-five thousand people were
given hospital care during this one
month, including thousands of repatri-
ate children at Evian, and about n
thousand tuberculosis patients in Paris

tions daily.

Almost Certain
OF Squash title
Crimson Players Defeat Co
lumbia in Five of Seven
Games Played
BY A. c. Cavagnaro,

The Harvard Club squash team practi-
cally assured itself Of retaining the
interclub team championship of the
metropolitan Association for another
year in defeating the Columbia Club
seven on the Harvard courts yesterday.
The series was characterized by the
most bitter matches Of the tourney,
with the Harvard men carrying off five
Of the seven.
The victory left the Harvard Club in
sole possession Of first place, with
three victories in as many series. Col
umbia's defeat crushed it's last hope to
dethrone the Crimson men and also
forced the Blue and White down into
third place in the standing.
Third Defeat for Yale
Yale suffered its third successive set
back. losing to the combined forces of
tho Princeton and Squash clubs by 5
matches to 0. The Ellis request for
the reduction of the usual scven-man
team to five was granted, but as it
turned out only two Yale players ar
rived at the clubhouse to play. There
two matches actually played and the
three others by default.
EXtra-sct matches featured the Har-
ward Columbia meeting, the Blue and
White representatives winning two Of
them. Lyle Il. Mahan, the Columbia
Club member, flashed his old-time form
in defeating J. Victor Onativia, jr.,
runner-up in the open handicap tour
ney, by count Of 1913, 1914. 1t
was a stamina-sapping struggle for
every ace, Mahan's effective round the
court and change Of pace game puzzling
his rival.
Onativia drove hard and brought his
returns swiftly to the back corners.
but found Mahar getting his racquet to
the ball for seemingly impossible
gets" Onatavia rallied in both games
to bring them to set, but Mahan, be-
ginning a new drive, collected ten
aces to Onativias one in both games.
Appel Works Hard
John ". Appel, jr., the rugged Grim
son player, also met with an unexpect-
cdly hard match, eliminating Fl. D..
Bulklcy anly after two set games, BY
a score of l7-14, 17--l6. In the sec
ond game Appel led IA to 4. but Bulk
ley gathered ten aces. to set it. In
the fight for the subsequent three
points, Appel's harder smashing stood
him in good stead.
