back the great German drive in the lins, Belew, Wright,
summer of 1918. A proposal has been
made to erect an all-Amtriean shrine
in honor of 2,000 heroic la is who fell
at Belleau and in the ChateauThei-
erry drive. This movement ins been
approved by President Harding*
Vive-President Coolidge, Secretary
Weeks and others. Marshal Foch is
the Honorary Chairman for France.
There is nothing in Europe with all
of its wonderful monuments erected
to human sacrifice and heroism which
stirs me more than the monument to
the great Marquis Layfayette elect-
ed by the American school children-
standing in front of the Louvie. ft
has occured to me that it would be an
eminently fitting thing if every Am-
erican school child might he given the
opportunity on Armistice Day, Nov-
ember I', which marks the opening
of the International Conference for
(.imitation of Armaments, to put one
penny into this great memoral to be
erected at Belleau. 1 am writing to
you to inform you of this movement
and suggesting that if you approve
that, you endon.e it in your State, t j
do not think that anyone ought to he
asked to give even a penny who does I
not care to do so, but 1 do feei that
practically all of our children will be
glad to have a part in this enter-
prise.
For your information the monu-
ment is to cost $300,000 and will be
erected at the point where the Am-
ericans first met the Germans. The
subscriptions will pass through the
hands of Government officials where
they will be carefully audited and all
expense in organizing and raising the
fund will be borne by private indivi-
udals. Here is, I believe, a splendid
opportunity for us to participate in 11111111111111 h It I It 1111M11111111111U1111111: II1111111111111111111111111111111111) 1111M1111; 11111111111

November Woolen Sale
Costumes Fashioned of These Woolens
Can't Help Being Exquisite
Luxuriously soft of texture and in rich colors exquisitely subdued by their deep pil
ing, the beauty of this Winter's Woolens ha^ scarcely been approached even, by the fab-
rics of former seasons.
Because only a large display can do justice to the variety of weaves and shades our
assortment of suit, coat and frock woolens is very complete, and their names, Silvertone,
Velours, Tricotine and others, though extravagant sounding, aren't one syllable too high
flowing for the fabrics they describe.
