Among the battlefields. and ceme- | teries selected for the erection of monu- ‘ments and other memorial structures are Chateau-Thierry (Hill 204), St. Mihiel, Belleau Wood, Montfaucon, Suresness, Blanc Mont, and Cantigny. There also has been erected a Naval memorial at task of the United, States Navy in convey- ing American troops to France. In addition to its work in selecting {2 1 sites, approving designs and erecting these, memorials, the commission has gathered much historical material pertaining to the war, including photographs of the battle- fields upon which American troops were engaged. Since his retirement from active mili- tary duty in 1924, General Pershing has “devoted the greater part of his time to the work of the Monuments Commission, which, needless to say, has been done with the utmost care and thoroughness. It is gratifying that the distinguished com- mander of the A. E. F., who will be 74 years of age on September 138, has been spared to complete this important patriotic service. ORIENTAL WISDOM Addressing a conference of mis- sionaries, Rev. Harris Kirk of Baltimore declared that “heathens have good reason for disliking civilization, because ways introduces the vices and civilized countries,” He also predicted that the world will eventually look to the Orient for political and moral leadership. a : Many missionaries have complained of increasing difficulties since the world war, owing to the bad impression created by so-called Christian nations engaging in that unholy orgy of death and destruction. Even in peace times it can not be de- nied that the prevalence of crime, es- pecially in the United States, is a rather sorry example to hold up to the heathen. evils No wonder they are skeptical of Western | their names in the culture and religion, when such fruits are borne by our vaunted white civilization.

Sure that-he had found the way to China, Cartier sailed back to France, taking two Indians and a marvellous load of tall tales that were true. “We saw a great multitude of wild men that were fishing for mackerels, whereof there is a great store.” For France he had also discov- ered one of the greatest ‘fisheries in the world, off the Gaspé coast, which some Canadian historians believe had been fished by Euro- peans as early the 12th Cen- tury. Possibly even Basque fish- ermen had been there before Car- tier. It is certa that French ‘fishing fleets rushed there when they heard Cartier’s stories. In 1535 Cartier returned with a larger expedition to push up the Northwest Passage, the gor- geous St. Lawrence, “into Ca- thay. He hesitated at the won- drous gorge of the Saguenay River and Indians told him that up that river was a kingdom “rich in-precious stones.” When KEY WESTIN ‘ DAYS GONE BY Ago Teday As Taken From The Files Of The Citizen Loca! girls are urged to enter San Carlos ve for queen dt the celebrati Not only will the winne crowned queen but will 7 being offered, full di ich will be found in t of this another American bridge, jappenings Here Just 10 Years, but in each the completion of the road. pate because this. discovery d, tion of a vast aren of the continent, including the ‘ican Northwe: in the St. Lawrence Valley accessible shows the Cartier high relief on the jnew Provincial Museum in Quebec City. y modern highwa: ic he reached the Island of Orleans, off. the present city of Quebec, and still one of the most beauti- ful spots in Canada, Huron-Iro- quois Indians told, him he in the Kingdom of “Canada,” their word for village.

During the disastrous winter near Quebec, when many of his men died of scurvy, he still tried to learn more of the mar- vellouns Saguenay country, and decided that the way to get there was up the Ottawa River. In 1541 Cartier was back again with a still larger expedi- tion and anchored at Cap Rouge, nine miles from the present Que- bee City. Later came the seign- eur de Roberval, who was to be in general command of the ex- pedition and who was to try to ascend the Ottawa River to the reported land of riches in the Saguenay region.
