killed or wounded before the brigade
was relieved at the end of the month.
While in this action the marines. eook

and finally captured the important town
Of Bouresches.
In disclosing these casualties tooa!
Major General BARRETT. commandment OF
the marine corps. said public statements
from army officers that the marines
were not in the fighting at Chateau mi
errv were misleading. The marines ne

itself, but fought in the Chateau ThleHry
sector in the action known officially as
the battle Of Chateau Thterry.
General Barnett cited official COM
munications both from General Pershing
and the war department. He pointed OUT
that a number Of marines were awarded
the distinguished service cross by Cen
eral Pcrshing for heroism at Chateau
Thierry."

Site For High
School Selected.

The County High School Board.
composed of Judge T. A. Lancaster
Representative A. s. Montgomery,
County Superintendent o. f. Holmes.
and Farmers Jno, w. Ballard and w.
w. Reed, on Thursday Of last week
made selection for the site for the
erection of the County High School
building for which the recent Gener-
al Assembly authorized the issuance
Of bonds.
The site selected was what is
known as the William Fesmire prop
erty, consisting of forty-five acres,
practically level, and lying on the
North side of Town, about one-half
mile from the courthouse. The price
paid was $4,000, and after appropri-
ating sufficient land for all purposes,
contemplated in connection with the
High School, there can be reserved
and sold for building lots enough of
the land to materially reduce the
whole cost of the property.
While other properties offered had
merits, the. site in the judgment Of
the High School Board was the most
desirable and in their selection the
Board will have the endorsement of
the people,
If the Board sells lots for the cree
tion of homes, no cheap john
shacks should. .be allowed constructed
under the shadow las it were) Of the
handsome high school building for
which Henderson county is going TO
pay n good price.

ute to the memory Of the dead and to
place flowers on their graves, orig
mated in 1868. Bro. Wynn's later Ic.
marks, applying Memorial Day ser
vice to the benefit of our own live,
were appropriate and appreciated.

might have been picked up" but
could not have been better with Ion.
and special preparation, His de
scription of the City of the Dead as
the place where all human barrier,
differences and distinctions are lev
elcd, was fine,
Mrs, I, A. Enochs read special
selection, which, with the songs suns,
the eloquent invocation by Rev. c. T..
Azbill and the dismissal by Prof. i.

wholly appropriate program Of the
day.
