Fairfax, S. R Koolution* of Respect. THURSDAY, DECEMBER 5TH, 1918. — i A Beautifal Custom. A writer in the Saturday Evening Post tells of a beautiful custom tfiat has been inaugurated in France and | that is making great headway throughout that country. Some months ago, the people in a French port where thousands of our j bejri have landed and where quite a number of them are buried in a little God*s Acre, wssnt to the commanding j officer and asked permission to adopt the American dead. When pressed ! fer an explanation, they told the offi cer that practically every family in that town, which was far from the battle front, had lost some membei* of the family—husband, son or brother ► —and that possibly they would never f see their last resting places. For this reason they desired to do for America's heroes what they could not do for their own—keen their graves green. Permission w s readily grant ed and now visitor* see these people working daily in that hnllowe 1 spot. Grass grows ever every isrnvr to hide the raw earth and tbe flower* are kept fresh and fragrant. From thia humble lieginning, the Idea took quick hold upon the French paople and spread from town to town. THia tribute of lo\r from a prople wHo Have •offered so much in the war for humanity should he comfort ing to A meru ant a Ho hav * loved ones sleeping in the sacred sci! of France. V Mr*. R. F.
