— ~ SE AMNEAVAL. SULT ih IGiG WEDNESDAY, JULY 16, 1919° d,000 CHURCHES DAMAGED BY FOE Extent of Destruction Looms as Work of Restoration Begins in Europe. From CARL A. RANDAU (United Press Staff Correspondent.) PARIS,—(By Mail.)—Over 3,000 churches were either completely de- stroyed or seriously damaged by the German. invasion of northern France. The state in which these martyred churches now are found varies from those that have been absolutely wiped ; out to, others which suffered only the damages of occasional stray shells. The work of restoring the churches has begun. The first annual general assembly of the society to restore the churehes of the devastated regions was held) in Paris recently. At that time Vicar Odelin of Paris reported that over $265,000 had heen expend- ed in beginning the work of restora- tion. He stated that 63 churches marae been, adopted by individuals who will personally bear all the expenses in- | volved in the work of rebuilding. Help |. has come, said the Vicar, from the United States, from Brazil, from In-| dia, in fact every nation ‘of the Allied world is helping France counteract the work of the destroyer. Some of the churches will never be restored. Some are gone, completely shot to bits, leaving barely a trace of their former location. Others, famous cathedrals such as those of Rheims and Amiens, may be left as they now stand as a warning to pos- terity and as an indelible record of the savagery of the past five years. In importance, architectural beauty and size the ruined cathedrals an churches vary from the stately ruin of Rheims, which will always symbol- ize the barbarity of the Huns to the little country. churches. Beside the mound which figured day after day in the war communi- ques as “Hill 304,” in the midst of what used to form the quiet village of Esnes, just to the right of Verdun, | stood the little church. It was almost demolished by the terrible effect of the artillery during the Verdun strug- gle of 1916, but until late in the sum- mer of 1917 the altar of the church stood unscathed. The roof and walls of the church had long since been shot away, but the weather-beaten, unpro- tected altar continued to give solitary evidence of the former presence of a house of worship. Today nothing re- mains. But the little church of Esnes h is only one of a great’ number which will never be restored. PAL MOORE 15 READY TOMEET JIMMY WILDE a: IN BIG FIGHT JULY 17 By DON E. CHAMBERLAIN (United Press Staff Correspondent) y LONDON, July 16.—The stage} was all set today for Thursday’s 20- round bout between Pal Moore, Mem- phis, Tenn, bantamweight, and Jimmy Wilde of Wales, flyweight champion of: the world. Both men have eased up on their training. The American is confi- dent that he will show the Britishers that his win over Wilde last fall was not a fluke, and Wilde is just as positive he will prove it was a fluke. The men fight at The Olympia, a os huge amusement hall. Ringside ‘weight of 116 pounds prevails. Odds slightly favor Wilde. Betting on a knockout also favors Wilde, backers of the American contenting ther selves with merely wagering their money on Moore’s chances to cop the decision. British sport writers declare that from the point of interest the bout will be the greatest staged in Britein since Freddie Welsh of Wales de- feated Willie Ritchie of America, for the lightweight championship of the world, Moore gained a decision over Wilde in a three round bout in the Anglo- American boxing tournament here Mast winter. There was considerable , feeling at the time over the decision. Up to the time of meeting Moore, Wilde had eliminated everything in the British flyweight, bantamweight and featherweight clesses, including the champions of the two heavier) weights. Just before meeting Moore, Wilde met and knocked out Joe Coun, runner-up for the British feather- weight title, Moore’s win over him was the first blemish on, Wilde’s record, It preb- ably would have been forgotten if Moore had not been reported oer here as calling Wilde a hard loser. This was too, much for the diminu- tive Welshman and he began worhing for a long contest with Moore. Wilde's coming fight with Moore) recalls the fact thal it has been American opponents who gave him his start. It was an American boxer, th@ over-touted Kid Zulu of St.) Louis, Mo., that give him his original | fame. After the. match had been| played up both in the States and} here, Wilde knocked the Kid out in! the first round. Since Moore beat Wilde, Joe Lynch of New York, slugged Wilde to a stand-still in a fifteen round bout at the National) Sporting club, but the referee award- ed Wilde the decision because Lynch fouled. oe In the cities of Norway children a SCREEN STORY OF pictured in “The Fighting Roos: velts,” the authorized screen version of the career of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, to be shown at the Iris theater on Saturday and which read- ers of history will not find cata- provided by Mr. from memory and memoirs which have been made public, After the vast amount of detailed information put at the disposal of MeClure Productions; Inc. produc- ers of “The Fighting Roo: Its,”” been s fe egated and cl fied int epoe! e Colonel ¢ NET PROFITS 10 ARMY IND NAVY CLUB FROM CARNIVAL OVER $700 A final report of the mone y collect- ed by the Russell Brothers’ carnival here showed that the 10 per cent of the receipts given the Army and } club here amounted to $701.38 r expenses incidental to the carn had been paid.

He missed a lot of business, of course, but there’s, another side of it. Lots of people who really wanted this particular brand of coffee were nnable to get it because no one ever told them where it was to be had. You know yourself that it would take you twice as long to shop if there were no advertisements to guide you in your buying. You wouldn’t know where to start. You'd miss a lot of good values just because no one ever told you about them. The man who advertises is glad to have you “pes- ter him” toshow you his goods. Don’t miss the ad- vertisements.
