Napoleon Buried in Six Caskets, Writes Richmond Boy Who Visited His Tomb

The following letter has been received by Mrs. Edward Thompson from her son, Robert C. Thompson, now located at LAKochelle, France: "I have taken a vacation and have been too busy to write. We are having a good time at Eau Bonne and have taken several trips to other places. We saw Pau, Eaux, Chande Lourdes, and have taken several trips up the mountains and have waded in snow waist deep. We have a room in hotel Bernis, No. 13. which is good enough for a commissioned officer lucky thirteen! They have treated us royally, so you see we bate to return to camp. I spent one day in Paris and saw the main parts of interest. Has Postal Views.

I have several hundred postal

views which I will mail home at vari

ous times. At first I will get tha

diary up and write you about our trip,

We are in the Pyrenees mountains,

near Pau. This place I meatlon is

the home of King Henry IV, and you

will receive a picture of his castle.

I saw inside tapestries of all descriptions. War trophies and oddities are kept here. We visited the museum and saw rare art of the fifteenth and

sixteenth centuries. Millet and Raphael had painting there. Here we saw the American dollar among the coins of different nations. At Lourdes, we saw Calvery Hill, where the Passion Play is mimicked in iron statury. We

saw the big cathedral and you will get these views. We went to the top of a high mountain in a special car that goes almost straight up a track for 3,292 feet and then we climbed up the rest of the way, where an iron cross,

fifty feet high, is mounted. It is electrically lighted and is beautiful after dark. This is the best place to go to see the country. It is said that forty towns are visible. I know it was the

best mountain view I have gotten. We saw a large panorama picture of the town, painted years ago in oil. We went to the fort and here we found the guard. We asked him to let us go through. This was a fine sight. We climbed all over it, and on top it is several hundred feet above the city, so we took in the town again. To show you the magnitude of Pau, I might say that one million people on vacation, visit there every summer. Some days forty-five special trains are

used to handle the crowd. Bread Is Good. "The bread is better than the white bread at home. We usually get soup for dinner and supper, fried goat meat, potatoes and mineral water is the rest of the variety for dinner and the same with fruit and nuts for supper. I have Just completed sawing some wood in order to obtain some string with which to wrap a package. "I have not said much about Paris. It is fine. Now the funny part of it all is the fact that we missed out on the "Y" trip, so we hired a limosine to take us. We can't understand much French, but we understood the taxi, drive to say thirty-one and onehalf france. We bought his dinner (five francs)' and when we went to pay him he had a bill for one hundred and fifty francs more for taxLhire. We were rather provoked at first, but paid him and had a good laugh over it to think our French was so poor. "I saw Notre Dame, the finest cathedral inside and out, of any church I have ever seen. I saw the big ferris wheel (not running) and Efteil Tower. The base of this steel structure is a city block square and 984 feet high. A wireless station is on the tower,

so we could not go up. I saw Napoleon's tomb. It is made of fine chocolate-colored marble and weighs sixty thousand pounds. He is buried in six caskets, one within the other. The building is fine with hand painted

ceilings. I saw the Pantheon. This is a big war picture of which bo much

talk was about. It is an oil painting put in a circular building. It took one hundred artists four years to make it. In one section, the picture

shows a big building with steps in front. On these steps you can see five thousand French soldiers, all of whom can be recognized. All nations are represented that are considered as one of our allies. In the part dedicated to Uncle Sam you can see General Pershing and President Wilson. These characters are Just as real as life. Sees Many Palaces. "I saw the small and large palaces. The palace of Trocodero had a fine museum for sculptures. We saw Victor Huber church. The opera building was very classy. Hamlet was playing here, but we did not go in as our time was rathered limited, for we had to leave at 8:25. The Seine river is lined on both side with hundreds of fine marble and stone buildings- The river itself is very calm and about a square wide. It is spanned with many beautiful bridges about a square apart. "We saw the Louvre and passed through the small arch of Triumph, dedicated to the victory over the Italians. The soldiers on their return from victory passed through it. "We went through the Tulerles or park. A place called Concord is along this same route. We went right on and through the big arch of Triumph.

This made a hike of about six miles.

We saw thousands of cannons on

either side that were taken from Kaiser Bill. - Some of the guns are badly shot to pieces. We saw big lines of ammunition . carts and one

big German tank. It think Paris, is

interesting enough to entertain a per

son for a month.

"I never have taken a trip In my

life like this one. I can now give

France credit for a lot which hereto

fore I was unable to. The people are very bright and refined here at the

mountains." .

Thompson's present address is Camp Hospital No. 89, Base Section

No. 7, A. P. O., 735.

Dr. Charles Brubaker of Dayton, O.,

in a speech at a mass meeting of all

Richmond Sunday schools at Eas

Main street Friends church, Sunday,

urged that the local Sunday schools maintain the success of their recent

Interest among all their members. He said that all classes in the schools

So much interest should be injected in the work of Richmond Sunday schools, he said, that the schools

should reach the objective of every citizen a member of some school." He laid particular stress on the maintenance of the gain in members in Richmond Sunday schools. E. P. Jones, of Milton, president of the County Sunday School association made the epeech of presentation when the silk American flag was presented to Mt.

Newspaper Advertising In War and Peace! The Liberty Loan drives, the Red Cross drives, the various war charities were made successful with the - aid of newspaper advertising. Nothing else would have aroused the ..people so quickly. No means of communication with the mass of the people would have been so prompt and so low in cost. Today newspaper advertising is helping bring the world back to balance. It is opening the natural channels of commerce, starting the mines and mills and opening jobs for the returning soldiers.
