France was at war with the allied kingdoms of Great Britats, | Holland and Austria. And France’s fortunes were at lew ebb. Her military prestige had collapsed through many defeats; her overtased People were beginning to murmur against Louis XV., their prodigal King. Only @ master stroke could steady the tottering throne. ° ' The French had invaded the “Low Countries” and were besieging Tour ‘nay, in Belgium. The allies, under the Duke of Cumberland, marched to |relleve the siege. The two rival forces clashed near the village of Fonte noy (four miles southeast of Tournay) on May 11, 1746. Marshal Saxe (one of the 163 children of King Augustus the strong, King of Poland) was in command of the French. He was impeded by the- presence and eilly advice of fussy King Louis and the Crown Prince of France on the field. He was also at the point of death from dropsy and @ complication of diseases, Voltaire, his friend, protested against his risking bis life by taking command when he was go ill. Saxe replied curtly: “Tt ten't jestion of LIVING, but of WINNING.” A LOST INTEREST. “When we plant a tree we are doing what we can to make our planet a more wholesome and happier dwelling place for , those who come after us if not for ourselves.” , O (WE take the interest in trees that our fathers and grand- 4 a fathers did? How many old homes seem beautiful to us to- day because of the towering and protecting trees we owe to instinct and foresight of the dead? Are we doing what they did? ive in the country, do men plant trees to-day with the seal of fifty yeaa ago? |.» As to tree planting in the city where trees are tenfold blessinge— Rd SHAD eR AS FAT A: , Saxe was too sick and in too intolerable agony, te ih v a all in this eity of New York—there can be but one answer.

In front was a deep ravine at the foot of thé hill. The right wing of his 'y was at the nearby village of St. Antoine on the Scheldt; the left wing was in a wood at the left of the hill. Tt was & supposedly perfect position for defense. On May 10 the allies, led by the “bloody Duke of Cumberland,” advanced near enough to the Frenoh outposts to open artillery fire. At 4 o’clook next morning the actual battle began. Cumberland opened the fight by bombard- ing the bill. At the eame time his Dutch troops were hurled at St. Antoine, and an English detachment attacked the wood. Both these charges were easily repulsed by the French. Then came the great movement of the day. Fourteen thousand English and Hanoverian infantry—picked veterana—charged the hill. They marched in deep file forty men in width, dragging cannon along with them. They ap- proached the ravi: t the hillfoot. The leading English regiment halted as it came face to face with the first French regiment (th ce Guard) de- ne the ravine. Lord Charles Hay lifted his hat and sald, with a low wi “Gentlemen of the French guard, pray fire!” Th pe ey d'Auteroche, swept the ground with his own plumed replied: lemen of England, it is your move. We never ‘ire first.” At a volley the front rank of the French was mowed down, The Engitsh carried the ravine in a rush and began to mount the hill. Under terrific fire, the column of veterans advanced. Nothing could stop {t. Its men fell by the score, but atill it kept on, its cannon blazing at front and flank. It drove through the French army as a wedge through soft wood. King Louls moaned that all was lost, and he prepared to set a noble example to his army by running away. But Saxe told him it was too late to run and prepared to snatch triumph out of disaster. Forgetting how desperately ill he was, Saxe rolled out of his basket, leaped on a horse and gave orders that “the artillery, the household troops and all disposable regiments” be thrown forwa: against the victorious column, He galloped off to where the famous brigade of Irish exiles was stationed and put that brigade in the front rank of the charge as he pointed to the advancing British, shouting to them: @ * “There are your Saxon enemles!” The Irish, backed by such other troops as Saxe had been able to rally, charged furiously at the English column, The English, unsupported, fell back bet this terrific onslaught. Their advance was halted and changed to a retreat-- a retreat In which the whole ailled army joined, leaving behind them 8,000 killed, wounded and prisoners, The Fontenoy victory was the turning point in the war.
