With tha Amsriean Force in
France July 26— Under the pres-
sure which the Franeo-Ameriesns-nre
driving on Fera-on-Tardenote the
Germane now face the possibility of a
withdrawal across the Oureq under
the same eoatly circumstance as
those which surronnded their with-
drawal to the north bank pf the
Marne '
The allied advance is generally
steady but there is much hard fight-
ing especially in the Fere Forest
Practically all of the interior of the
' Soissons-Rheims salient is under the
fire of the allied artillery and the
allied airmen are adding to the em-
barrassment of the Germans by bomb-
ing and machine gun fire '
The artillery fire is especially
heavy on Fere-en-Tardenois where
the rain of shell has practically wip-
ed out the elaborate German railway
and highways system
The German losses in this region
are simply appalling and can be cora-
Sared only with the slaughter of the
tuns on the banks of the Marne The
allied forces are constantly tighten-
ing the lines about the forces of the
Crown Prinee The French and Brit-
ish are constantly driving at the
wings of the salient at Reims and
Soissons while the Franco-American
forces are driving in the sides of the
salient Those who are in doth touch
with the situation believe that the
great mass of the’ Crown Prince’s
army will be destroyed or captured if
the allied successes continue -

CARELESS SLACKING
(By Wal ' Mason)
Jim Jimpson stopped his
touring ear and let the motor
run while handing out with
face ajar some facts about the
Hun He pushed hot language
from his throat tor minutes sev-
enteen and all the time his idle
boat was burning gasoline A
million cars thus wasteful stand
as we proceed to press the gas
thus burned throughout the land
would -make a lake I guess
Ere long methinks that Uncle
Sam will shut off the supply
and then from York to Yuba
Dam we’ll cuss the wasteful guy
I see men slacking every day
unconscious that they slack
Jinks throws a pair of shoes
away because one has a crack
Bilks squanders money when he
sups but has no ill intents
Jones feeds a string of useless
pups not worth eleven cents
Crips buys more garments than
he needs and gorgeously he’s
drest Crump blows himself for
Cuban weeds when twofers
would be best We all should
save in every style to swat those
Teuton scamps and when we
have a little pile Invest in bonds
or stamps ‘

The Franco-Araericmns have
querad the last great physical ob-
stacle which barred their way to
Fere-en-Tardenois the great Ger-

ture of that all important position is

boon

dean sweep from the aouth and era

man stronghold by advancing np the
valley of the Oureq from the south-
east In this manner the allice may prase

a front of moro than 16 miles The

latest objective
Steadily Gaining
By United Press
Paris July 26— The Franco-Amur-leans
have completely turned the
German positions in the Fare force!
and are within aix kilometen of Fere-en-Tardenois
On both sides of the
road from Mexy north to Oulchy-le-Chatean
the Americana repulsed vi-
gorous German counter attacks and
then pressed northward capturing

DOING STUNTS
Bast time at our house is when
Pa cornea home from work an’ than 1
After supper’s over he
Looks at Ma an’ then at me '
Puts hia napkin down an1 grunts
“Bud we'd better do our stunts”
Then I give a run an’ jump
Right up on him with a bump
Catch him round the neck an’ crawl
Way up high an ’never fall
Sometimes too he lets me stand
On his shoulders with his hand
Steadyin’ me awhile till I’ve
Got myself all set to dive
Then he says: “Now let ’er goP’
An’ headfirst I tumbled low
But the floor I never meet
Cox he holds me by the feet
An’ between his legs I swing '
Just aa click as anything
Then he lies unon the floor
An he takes my hands once more
An I stiffen out an he
Tries to catch me on his knee
Sometimes though we fumble that
An’ I squash his stummick flat
An’ he says “We’re gettin’ rough
Guess that one will be enough”
But I beg for just one more
An’ he swings me from the floor
Ma’s so tender-hearted she
Won’t stay in the room to see
All our tricks She thinks I might ‘
Jump before Pa’s got me tight
An’ at times I get a fall
But it never hurts at all '
For I’m big an’ strong an I
Taka si burp an’ never cry
Doin’ stunts with Pa Gas whix!
That’s the finest fun there is '
