JERSEY SOLDIERS BET HIGH PRAISE -INLETTER To Eee — Col. Marcus B. Stokes of 311th Infaniry Writes of Bravery of His Men. TRENTON, eb. 1.—"In the cap- ture of Grandpre our brigade had one of the hardest propositions to contend with along the whole battle front,” wrote Col, Marcus B. Stokes in a letter to Gov. Walter E. Edge, praising in highest terms the valor of tho 311th Infantry. “We took part in three or four en- fgagements on this front in October,” he wrote, “and as the extreme teft or- ganization of the American Army in the great and final drive of the war we mado the jump off on the early morning of Nov. 1. “although your estimate of Jersey men {s undoubtedly great at all times, {t would have filled you, as well as every man, woman and child in the State, with the highest admiration for the way these men conducted them- selves under these greatest of hard- ships, My own praise is simply be- yond expression. “We are now woll back in Central France, fully reorganized and equip- ped, and are prepared eithor to take our turn in Germany or to go home.” “After a few weeks of training on the American sector near 8 we began by marches to a part of the line in which w take our first part in batt proved to be in the d St Mihiel salient “a y or two of this in reserve, but to a position in campair were soon the front | was right up line.

No advertising is permitted that can mislead purchasers. Fach day’s communications to the people are mainly about fresh merchandise, and therefore well worth reading. The large daily outflow of goods and the carefully moder- ated prices keep up the large sales and thereby the pipes are flushed and clean, requiring the perpetual inflow of fresh goods. herefore the people can buy with confi- dence. There is a constant and strict supervision of qualities by compe- tent experts, and likewise of the prices, watching all the time to protect our customers, whom we desire to retain and increase. We search every part of the United States, and go everywhere over the open world to purchase reliable merchandise, buying in large quantities and paying quick cash in order to make the lowest prices possible ‘to our greatly valued customers. ‘THIS remarkable collection of oils and water-colors is the graphic record of a great mass of crowding impressions, caught dur- ing the storm of battle and trans- ferred to canvas by the soldier= artists of France. The War in the most appalling of its phases is pic- tured for us with terrible vivid- ness.—The field of battle strewn with shapes of men,—life in the trenches,—the pathos of huddled figures awaiting the Zero Hour,— the snatch moment. of comfort during mess,—the desolation of rows of graves with their black crosses casting slanting shadows in the snow, Then the awe-inspiring side of war. The blaze of rockets at night, the swoop of airplanes, the grandeur of the onsweep of cour- ageous men at battle. (Signed) jh fossa February 1, 1919.

It is a new color pal- ette produced by the sombre Beep and browns of No Man's nd, the eery garkness of the night watches, and the faint ghastly streaking of dawn behind the clouds of battle. The pictures were assembled with great difficulty, not only becuese few war pictures have yet been made but because those soldier-artists who have placed their vivid sketches and memo- ries on the canvas are loath to part with them. The sketches, they mys have become a part of their lives, Not even Paris, so far as we know, has yet made so compre- hensive a collection of war pic- tures.
