HOSPITAL TO BE
MONUMENT TO
CANTICNY DEAD

PARIS, Sept. 26.-The memory of
the American soldiers who fell at
Cantigny is to be perpetuated at
Montdidier by the establishment of
municipal hospital constructed from
American Red Cross barracks. Over
the entrance to the administration
building will be an inscription read
ing; Gift of the American Red Cross
to the Town of Montdidier In
Memory of the American Soldiers
Who Fell at Cantigny."
Cantigny, in the valley below Mont
didier, was the first American battle
field in France. In the beginning of
the Allied advance last summer, the
Americans captured Cantigny against
tremendous odds, advancing further
than any other troops in taking it.
Many Americans lie buried on
the hillsides about the town. The
French country people are keeping
the graves green, many of the fami-
lies having adopted" American
graves.

Tourmalines were discovered to US

when some Dutch children playing
with bright colored stones on a warm
summer day, noticed that they attract

called lash drawers" and later 1t was
discovered that they have electric

Press Found Lukewarm.

Most of the newspa pers in Ohio are
democratic or independent. There are
few Of the old-line republican papers.
When you find the democratic and in
dependent journals rather lukewarm in
their support Of the President and
Vehement in their denunciation Of
what they say in the worst postal
service they ever had, severe tn their
criticism of the railroads and the pro-
posed increases in telephone and tele-
graph rates, you can make up your
mind that SO far as things democratic
are concerned there is something very
wrong sin this the stronghold Of pro-
gressivism and liberalism.
Judging by the talk Of politics. one
gets the feeling that 1929 is only q
few months away-too few months at
that to suit those who have grievances
and too near to suit the optimistic
democrats who hope and believe that
time. the great solvent. may effect q
turn in the tide Of political passion.

The man I am quoting sees many
reasons why the President failed 10
sense public opinion properly last
autumn. and excuses it on the sfouna
that Mr.. Wilson was much ABSORBED
fesses to me that while he himself
is charitable about it. most other peo-
pie are not.
Bitter Against Others.
Also he pointed out that feeling
herea bouts was pretty bitter against
Messrs. Burleson. Kitchin and the
democratic leaders in Congress.
An editor who has been strong in
his support of Mr.. Wilson in previous
campaigns and who knows Ohio like
that the President has gotten out OF
touch with the masses, and they feel
his selections for the peace mission
were not the best that America had.
Indeed, a. the peace conference fails
to show results. there is q turn TO the
ana .ssn Of am sss sst Il sS e. pss
ident had selected Mr.. Taftsto 80 to
Europe his task would have been
much e2sier-that 10. he would now
hnd q united country BEHIND the
American peace mission in whatever
program 1t sees Mt to recommend.
There 10 the deep-rooted feeling. FOR
example, that Mr.. Wilson dominates
the American mission in Paris and
that there 10 no check on his views or
suggestions, and that he may possibly
be in error In his methods-in other
words, that personal incompatibility
may have something to do with the
friction in Paris.
Democrats See Blunder.
To be sure. this last suggestion is
one usually advanced BY republica MS,
but have heard many democrats say
Mr.. Wilson blundered. perhaps fatal
ly when he failed to select either Mr..
Root or Mr.. Taft. and In this section
they particularly talk Of the latter.
Why they felt that Mr.. Taft had
been partisan throughout the war.

being resentful because he wasn't
chosen. turned around and actually
cl1ampioned Mr.. Wilson's proposal for
a league Of nations, and did so in tht
face Of bitter opposition in the Senate.
there arose a volume Of praise for the
breadth Of mind and sportsmanship OF
the former President. which makes

he may be the next nominee of the
