Parents and other relatives of Ohio soldiers who gave up their lives in France, will be called on to make a decision as to the permanent disposition of the bodies of their beloved ones. More than 50,000 American soldiers are temporarily buried in French soil, their lives having been paid as the supreme sacrifice in the war to enthrone liberty throughout the world. It is learned definitely at the war department that parents or next of kin of the dead can in every instance have their choice of three alternatives: 1-The bedy may remain undisturbed where it now lies. 2-The body may be brought to the United States and buried in one of the national cemeteries, all expenses paid by the government. 3- The body may be brought to the United States and delivered to the family for burial at the soldier's home, all expenses to be borne by the government.

Relatives Must Decide. It is for the grief-stricken relatives to make a decision between the three plans for final disposing of the soldiers remains. If they de sire the body to remain in France where the interment took place im mediately after death, they shouie follow the example of Col. and Mr. Theodore Roosevelt and advise th war department of their wishes.

If they do not do so, they will re ceive in due time a notice from the war department stating that the bod has been started on the way back home and that, if the parents next. of kin desire, it will be sen to them for burial at their loca cemetery under their direction 0: if they prefer, it will be sent on ar rival in the United States, to th convenient and buried there. Parents will 110 be notified when the body is to disinterred in France and their fir: notice will be when the body is 01 the way. In National Cemetery. The government will take ever precaution to see that service is the very best.

The bodies will sent home in hermetically sealed cas kets. While the natural impulse or ret atives will be to have the bodies to them for internment in the loca burial plats, it is believed that 01 second thought many will prefe that their fallen loved ones shail br buried in a national cemetery. The faith of the government is pledged to the upkeep of the national ceme teries through all the years to come and the relatives know that the graves of their soldier kin will be well cared for always and that there need be no worry on that account. The most noted of the national cemeteies is the one at Arlington just across the Potomac from the City of Washington. This ceme tery occupies the old homestead of Gen, Robert E.

Lee. While it is conveniently located tc the eastern seaboard to receive bodies shipped from France, the burial accommodations are not sufficient to receive all of the bodies that will be brought back and undoubtedly many will be distributed to othe national cemeteries, of which a large number are scattered throughout the country and especially through the South. Nearly every state has its national cemeteries which, in some cases, are small but under government control. In the state of Ohio, as an exampie. there is a national cemetery at Camp Chase, Columbus, and another at Woodlawn, near Cleveland.

So far it has not been determined whether the relatives in every instance may elect the national cemetery, where the burial, shall take place, but probably that rule cannot be strictly established as it wouid not be possible, in all probability, to bury at Arlington all of the bodies that might be designated by relatives for interment there. In every case where a body is buried at a national cemetery the government will erect at the gravel a stone marker and inscribe on it the name 01 the soldier and the organization to which he belonged, with sufficient detail to form a perfect identification. The time when the bodes will be sent back is ancertain. Mr. Harry Motts returned Priday, evening from Charleroy, where he was called on account of the death of his brother, Wm.
