last July he stood by the lonely
grave away off from the main ROAD
in one Of the fields OF a little farm
and read on the modest Tombstone
there: He has SCARED beyond the
shadow Of our night.
The visit TO the tomb Of General

weeks ago TO be out an echo FROM

Garth, good will among men,"
All three graves visited were
those Of men of war. The speaker
insisted that the obligation was
upon him TO leave his audience not
at the grave OF Napoleon or a
Grant, or a Roosevelt. but at tho
grave OF one who IS the Prince Of
Peace and destined to conquer.

embittered with his daily quagre;S

All this, said the speaker, was
passing through his mind as he
stood last July by the sarapohag1s
tn the pit under the dome Of ths
Hotel Dies Invalides where n 1910
the French government placed the
remains Of their greatest emperor.
The pit was described as being
circular and about ten feet deep.
In its center was q green marble
pedestal and on It a chocolate col

pit as a result OF purple pRmGI oil
glass in the high dome, was sad,

came to the speakers lips rs he
stood there were, Eve all do tyde

In striking contrast with all
this was the double high alta. thai

body Of Napoleon rests from the
chapel. Immense. varigatei, screw
like marble pillars support The
canopy OF the altar and 'neatn the

with It's purple light and the crosc
with its golden rays: between the
absence Of the names OF battles

picture OF Christ's human defeat
on the other. Doctor Bloomfield
said that he lifted his heart to
God In thanks for a love expressed
on Calvary that Is conquerlng the
world. rather than the force ex,

Leading up to tho story OF his
visit to the lonely grave OF Quen-
tin Roosevelt, Doctor Broomfield
explained as a background the sec
ond battle OF the Marine, launched
| on July is. 1913. and Continuing
until July %. Thirty per cent Of
the Allies engaged were Ameri-

given to the Germans during thu
