ReimS cathedral is to be rebuilt, or
rather restored, for France has taken
second thought and decided that such
restoration is far more desirable for
the future than a splendid structure,
wrecked by war and left to stand In
melancholy demolition as a perpetual
reminder of its own destruction. 1t is
even said that ''the cold gray of its
masonry has turned under fire and
flame to delicate rose and ocher tints
that will only add to the beauty of the
rebuilded church" The plans for the
restoration are being made under the
direction of Mr.. DeneuX, architect of
the French historical monuments. and
the first practical steps have been talk
en- toward erecting temporary roofs
over the nave, aislas, crossing, and
chancel. Fortunately, more than three
quarters Of the wonderful stained
glass Of the cathedral was preserved
Intact, and can now be put back. A
few years hence, when the high pitch
ed slate roof has been added it is
predicted that the cathedral will have
recovered not a little of its old-time
beauty,

THE ADDRESS OF WELCOME.

Members of the Waldo County Veter-
ans Association, and others
To me has been assigned the privilege
of extending to you greetings of welcome.
| feel sure that | voice the expression
of the entire community when | tell you
that we feel honored by your desire to
meet again with US.
Since you last met in Prospect, there
have been many changes in both private
and public life. Many of your old COM
rades have been called to Join the "silent
majority" as have also many of the
more youthful heroes of the World
War"
To you we owe much, you who left
your families and homes and much that
life held dear, to preserve our glorious
Union, that it might not be divided by a
mistaken idea of others.
We can never repay the debt, and as
we look at you who are before us today,
we think of you as you must have been
IN the early Cos when you were young,
fearless and enthusiastic, ready to re-
spond to the call of that peerless ruler,
Abraham Lincoln, who piloted the ''Ship
of State" through stormy waters and
over whose untimely death a nation
grieved.
We know that your hearts are as
young as then, and, that, had it been
possible, you would have again gone for
ward, but the youth of or land fell into
line and upheld the honor of the old U.
S. A.
The enmity between the North and
South is now forgotten, and the North
erner meets his one time foe with a
hearty hand shake and tear dimmed eye.
The people of the South responded as
eagerly in 1898 as did those of the North,
and in the late conflict the thought COM
mon to all, was 10 rout the Hun, so that
there should be a permanent peace.
God grant that there shall be no repe-
titlon of warfare, terrible as we know it
was, and yet we who have not been call
ed upon to give up dear ones know little
about it,
We think of the mothers and of the
fathers, too, who gave the best they had
to otfer-their sons and daughters, for the
Red Cross nurses deserve that their
names should be ymmortalized, as we'll
as their brothers.
Warfare, as you knew it, was as you
thought, the worst that could be. No
doubt at that time it was what Sherman
SAID 1t was, but how much more terrible
is modern warfare, accompanied as it is,
by the many late inventions, among
which we may mention the machine gun
and acceptance.
When you were fighting for that cd
flag what would you have thought of
machine gunl
Flag of the free, fairest to seet
Borne thro' the strife and the thunder
of war;
Banner so bright, with starry light,
Float ever proudly from mountain to
shore
Emblem of freedom. hope to the slave,
Spread thy fair folds, but to shield and
to save,

Veterans, once again, in behalf OF the

MRS. GEORGE WARD
The Great Steel Magnate.

Andrew Carnegie was phenomenon.
Few Americans were more eulogized, few
more execrated. Some attributed to him
almost supernatural shreWdness and finan-
cial skill, others thought of him as the
luckiest man who ever traded with the
abilities of Others But he had genuine
genius, the fire and restlessness, the keen
relish for adventure, the soaring imagi-
nation that kept him far in advance of
all competitors. He knew little and cared
less for the dull routine of business, the
labyrinthine details of making steel. His
personal triumph was therefore the more
remarka bic, as shown in the organization
of hi force For instance, he made Capt.
Bill Jones the first manager OF his works
and his amazing judgment was justified
when Jones developed into America S
greatest practical genius In making steel
Often Carnegie's line for his own epitaph
has been Justly cited: Here lies the man
who knew how to get around him men
Whe were cleverer than himself"
Almost startling it is to learn that in
the days of the Civil War we knew but
little of steel. 1t was less used in 1865
than is aluminium today. A third of a
century ago steel making was regarded
as almost exclusively British industry.
1t was the poverty stricken Scottish boy,
then PENNSYLVANIA railroad telegraph
operator, who had the vision to see the
world OF steel of today. The nation
that makes the cheapest steel, he SAID,
''has the other nations at its feet" Car
negie won the admiration of Col. Tom"
Scott, division superintendent of the road,
by taking the kilograms that cleared the
line for traffic when wreck had blocked
it. He showed his cleverneSS by naming
his first plant the }. Edgar Thompson
Steel Works In honor of the powerful
president of the road. The two men,
Scott and Thompson, helped him greatly
to score his first successes. They bought
quantities of steel rails and they gave
freight rebates to his concern.
Then Andrew CarneGIe became the
greatest commercial traveller IN America.
Leaving hi; plodding associates to make
steel he went out and brought IN orders
by the million. Soon the United States
surpassed the United Kingdom in making
of steel. American locomotives were
drawing Engnsh trains on English rail-
ways, and AineTiCaa Stee! bridges were
spanning the Ganges and the Nile. 1t
probably is due to Andrew Carnegie that
through the war this country MADE more
steel than all the rest of the world put
together.

MEMORIAL BUILDING

The mass meeting to be held Tuesday.
August IL, for the purpose of getting
an opinion of the citizens of Bessemer
in regard to a memorial building to
be erected to the Bessemer men who
served in the war, will be attended
by a large number. it is thought, as
the question is one of the greatest in
terest in the city. A group of citi-
zens held a meeting a few weeks ago
for the purpose of deciding upon a me-
mortal, and it was the unanimous opin-
ion of the number gathered together
that a Y. M. c. A. building be erected
as the most fitting memorial. A COM
mittee headed by w. w. Hollingsw
was appointed to arrange the mass
and at the meeting be pre-
pared to make statement in regard
to the cost and plan of the building
The mass meeting was called for an
opinion of the people before definite
plans were made, and it Is the request
of Mr. Hollingsworth that all citizens
who are interested in memorial for
the soldiers attend the meeting. Some
of the most prominent men in the city
are not in favor of a Y. M. c. A. build
ing, according to Mr.. Hollingswor
and it is especially-re-
quested that those who wish to present
their ideas of memorial be present,
as the meeting is being held for the
purpose of getting an expression of the
citizens of the city.
