The French Model, which has been built .in West Charleston the past summer by Capt. G. W. Beerworth, will be exhibited m this place bat urday afternoon and evening, Janu arv 14th. - This is the only exhibit of the Model in northern New England, as Mr. Beerworth soon goes South, ex hibiting and lecturing in the interest of the . Department of Archives and History, Tennessee. In addition to the model, there will be shown war photographs, maps, war relics, such as machine guns, gas masks, helmets, breast plates etc. All come and you will be convinc ed that this miniature battlefield gives you more insight into the World, war than you can possibly imagine. Capt. Beerworth, who served with the Canadian Engineers, has been building a remargable model, show ing a 60-acre section of one of the most famous battlefields of France." The model is being built for the historical directors of the general staff of the War Department, Wash ington, D. C, and after being exhib ited in the larger cities throughout the country, it will be put on perma nent exhibit in the National museum in Washington forming the center of the historical exhibit of America's part in the great World war. The model depicts a section ,of what was known as "Death Valley" about 12 miles due north of Ver dun, and between the towns of Sam oeneaux, Haumont, and Brabant. This ,valley formed the apex of the French army's defense of Verdun during the German Crown Prince's determined efforts to capture Verdun in February, March and April, 1916, and where was created the immortal phrase, "They shall not pass." Here the French legions were thrown in until over 300,000 men lay on the fields when the French feil back across the Meuse river and held. It is claimed that more men fell here per square yard than any other place in France. Death Valley was again made memorable by the American forces as it, formed the pivot of the Amer ican offensive activities in St. Me heil and the Meuse Argonne. The section is well known to those who served in the Yankee division as they were lighting here when the armis tice was signed and had driven the Germans out of Death" Valley into Haumont woods to the north and west. The work is most realistic, show ing even the tracks of the tanks, trucks and men in the mud. The whole work is made to scale and the coloring is realistic.
