NAMING A BATTLE.
OppMing Armi·* De Not Alway· Qiv«
It th· 8am· Daaignation.
Many ot the world'· most famous
; battles bate two name·. Thus tbe b«t
1 ι tie of Waterloo I· known by tliat Dame
j only among English speaking peoples.
The French call It the battle of La
1 Belle Alliance. The battle that decid
led the war between Prussia end Aus
j tria in 1800 Is known among the Ger
mans ns the battle of Sadowa, but the
Anslriuna call It the battle of Koeolg
grneti In the war of 1870, between
Cermuny and France, the groat en
gagement that tbe Germane call the
battle of Gravelotte Is spoken of by
the French as the battle of St. Prtvat
I Tbe same thing wnx common In our
i civil war. The battle that is kuown In
] the north as flie battle of Bull Kan
would not be recognized by most south
, eruerg under that name, lu tbe south
It is invariably called the battle of
Manassas. So the battle that the Fed
eral generals called tbe brittle of I'ltta
burg Lauding was by tbo Confederates
called the battle of Shiloh. Antletam
h culled in the south the battle of
8har|>sburg. The writer, a southerner,
whose father was a Confederate otii
cer, was twenty years old before be
ever heard of the battle of Autietam,
although he was familiar wltb all the
details of tbe battle of Sharpsburg.
Tbe rensou for this is that tbe ofv
posing armies always name the battle
from some prominent geographical
landmark, and as tliey look at tlio Held
from different pointu of view they nat
uraily settle on different Dames. Thus,
ai Waterloo, tbe battle took Its Eng
ilsh name from the little village where
Wellington made tils final hoadqnar
ters and whence b« sent to England
i
the first dispatch tbat announced hi·
victory. So In 18Λβ the headquarter*
of the Prussian army was near the vil
latte of SadoWA, whereas that of the
Austrian» was near the tillage of Koe
nlRKrnpta. At Oravelotte the little vil
lage of that name whs an Important
point In the Uerman lines. On the side
of the French the harn!et of SL Privât
was the key to their battle formation.
As long as they held that they were
invincible, but when the Germans as
•ailed it In the rear and drove them
out the (lay whs lost.—Youth'· Com

OUR MEDAL OF HONOR.
More Difficult to Win Than Any For
eign Military Decoration.
Americana of average Information
know about the Victoria Cross, the
Iron Cross, the Cross of the Legion of
Honor. These are rewards of hero
lam which would mark a man above
bis fellows even In tbls foreign land.
But bow many Americans know what
α medal of honor la?
How many Americans know that the
modest American soldiers who wear
the medal of honor wear a I'ecoratlon
tbat la among the rarest and most did
cult to win among military honors?
The Cross of the Legion of Honor,
established by Napoleon in 1802. while
founded to signalize deeds of special
inrlng In war. was after given freely
for civil distinctions Nearly 40.000
Herman soldiers were decorated with
the Iron Cross in the seven months of
the Franco-Prussian war. while In the
more than half century since the crea
tion of our honor roll only 3.088 have
been granted, and of these nearly 000
were given under a mistaken reading

and Young Women
Sizes 14 to 20 Years
The sale is not the result of an over-night reversal in the wholesale market over which we had no
control. It is the completion of two months of careful planning. .
Practically every garment is a Wanamaker garment, from the first cutting of the material to the final. L
stitch in the making. We picked the materials—-even the trimmings—the fur collars. More than that: we
financed in some instances, their purchases—securing at the start substantial savings. Then we chose the ^
styles—our best selling and highest-priced models, many of them imported. Finally we had the garments <
carefully made by the best specialists in young women's clothing.
When you see the suits and coats tomorrow, fresh from the tailors' hands, you will realize the extra
ordinary opportunity the occasion presents.
