To give vent to this sincere re gard tor brave France and '.he French people, following the rendi tion of the big Bastile Day program rt Reservoir Park yesterday after noon, Mayor Kcister and the Harris- I'urg people, sent, as fast as tele graph Wires and cables can carry It, a message of true appreciation.

Threatening weather did not damp righteous cause! "THE MAYOR AND CITIZENS OF lIAJtRISBURG. PA." Threatening weather did not dam en the ardor with which Harris burg observed the "French Inde pendence Day." in commemoration of the fall on July 14, 129 years ugo during the French Revolution, of the liastile, the dungeon with its spe cial reservations for the victims of French autocracy. Special services in commemora tion of this happy event in the his tory of America's sister republic were held throughout the city. Appro priate sermons with suitable music were heard in many .of the city churches. The decorative scheme everywhere was wholly in keeping with tre occasion, with the French tricolor floating proudly beside the American Red, White and Blue. Strains of "The Marseillaise" and "The Star Spangled Banner" min gled many times during the day. Wounded Veteran Speaks Yesterday's celebration in Harris burg was the first one on which July 14 was celebrated with any de cided spirit. Celebrations, minor ;n their character, have previously been held, but with Harrisburgers fight ing shoulder to shoulder with the Poilus, and after France's whole hearted celebration of our own In dependence Day less than two weeks ago, Harrisburg yesterday joined with a deep feeling of appreciation fof" brave France in the celebration of the French national holiday yes terday. The high point in yesterday's cele bration wits the Reservoir Park nro prum. There a special attraction wus the presence of Captain Jacques Rouvier, of the French High Com mission, who delivered a short ad dress to help bind closer together the hearts and affairs of the two sister republics, who broke the shackles of autocracy within such a few years of each others. Rain cut short his talk. A tremendous welcome was ex tended this representative of the war-torn republic, a veteran of many of the battles in which she is now engaging. Although only twenty-five years of age, he saw service at Ver dun, along the Somme, In the Cham pagne region, suffered several severe wounds and lias been decorated sev eral times. On lligh French Commission Skilled in military and diplomatic affairs, Rouvier was appointed to ihe French High Commission, in that capacity he is now in this coun try helping to cement more solidly the union of the oldest republics of Europe and America. Captain Rouvier wove an interest ing tale of the significance of Bas tile Day in France. He told of the special tribute paid during the past three years, and this year as well, to the brave French boys, .many of them wholly untrained for the brave efforts they have made to check the Hun tlood. Germany had been pour ing division after division into France since the declaration of war, he said, but the brave Poilus had met them ut every Important point. lluns For War Since 1870 "Germany," he added, "has been preparing for this war for world domination ever since her treacher ous attack on us in 1870. She sud denly declared war in 1914 on France and Russia, violated Belgium's neu trality and began a march on Paris that left a trail of bloodshed and I I S The most delicious g i and popular form | ! in which corn was J ever served \ POST I !

"But we had not prepared like the Huns and as a result we were handi capped greatly. Allied resourceful ness, however, gradually brought or der out of chaos and to-day we stand ready to meet any German attempt that may be made." Some details of the preparation since been made by France to stem the Hun onslaughts, both In the point of defense, In recruiting und equip ping troops, were related by the Frenchman. Bishop Delivers Invocation The program in Reservoir Park got under way with the invocation by the Rt. Rev. Philip R. McDevitt, bishop of the Harrisburg diocese of the Roman Catholic Church. Com munity singing under the direction of Abner W. Hartnian. and with in strumental music furnished by the MunicipaJ band, featured the early part of the afternoon program. The first speaker on the program was Dr. Thomas Lynch Montgomery, State Librarian, who was Introduced by Andrew S. Patterson, president of the Chamber of Commerce. The in cidents leading up to and the sign!-' flcance of the destruction of the Bas tile were told by Dr. Montgomery. He spoke of the oppression visited upon the lower and middle classes by King Louis XV and the ruling classes and of the many conspiracies of the du Barry clique and others, which tended to aggravate the situ ation. The final revolt of the French which resulted in the overthrow of the Bastile, was pictured by the speaker as was the breaking of the 600-year-old yoke of oppression which had so restrained this liberty loving people for centuries. Complete Liberty Only "With the Bastile gone," Dr.; Montgomery continued, "there was only one ultimate outcome and that was complete liberty for the people. •Autocracy in France was gone for ever, and except for several spas modic efforts of the Napoleons, the thought of it was never revived. "France followed America," he added, "in declaring an end to tyran ny after the men of 1776 had gained independence with the help of La fayette and his brave comrades. For that reason these two republics are closely allied, their cause having been a common one from the day at Val ley Forge, when Washington and Lafayette met." After Jupiter Pluvius unloosed the clouds, cutting short the speech of Captain Rouvier, one of the pleasing features of the afternoon, the Muni cipal band burst forth in the strains of the "Marseillaise" followed imme diately by "The Star Spangled Ban ner." Churches Observe Day Many churches of Harrisburg joined with the people of the French republic yesterday in celebrating Bastile Day, the greatest holiday in the French calendar. Prayer serv-1 ices, thanksgiving meeting, and the singing of "La Marseillaise" were features of the day's festivities. How the enraged French populace de stroyed the famous old prison, the stronghold of autocracy for many centuries, Mar narrated by the min isters. The French tricolor floated in the evening breeze side by side with the Stars and StripiJs. Dr. George Edward Reed deliv ered a special Bastile Day sermon at Grace Methodist Church last night, telling how the bonds of friendship between the French and American nations have been welded. He told of the tribulations of the French re public. At Messiah Lutheran Church the Rev. H. W. A. Hanson led in a Bastile Day celebration and spoke on "America's New Confession of Faith." The Rev.
