Despite our splendid remittance, they ihroke through our line in three places near the YprosMeniu road and Dene- trated some distance into the woods bohind our trenches But there they were counterattacked and again en- filaded by machine guns.

 Simultaneous efforts Of Germans south of the road failed entirely. The attacking infantry was massed in the woods close to our line. Our guns opened.

 "The Germans perseverance claims our whole-heartod admiration. The failure Of one great attack, heralded by impassloned appeals in the pres ence Of the Kaiser, has been only the signal for another desperat efght. The Guard Corps have fully lived uD to their reputation earned in 1873.

Fournier Good at Football.
 Speaking of "Jack' Fournier the one ly member Of tho White Sox who hit above 300 this sesaon, it was only four or fiye years ago when Fourner was a football star. That was down in inc Grays Harbor country when Fournier was getting his start truck ing lumber in an Aberdeen sawmil in tho sprlng, playing baseball in tne summer. and playing football in the Fall. Fournior was member Of inc Aberdeen team that cleaned up every thing in that timber for two seasons. He played funback and was Q buiet line smashe7 He liked baseball bet. ter. however. and finally Bob Brown who was then at tho head Of the Ab- erdeon Club. placed him with Waiter 8lcCredie's Portland Coast Leoene team. Fournier'B frat chance to make good in baseball was In Sunday mosn- ing game at Oakland. Portland wasI playing San Francisco, and Cack Hen.I ley was pitching for tho Seals. Two were down, with two on thc bags and Fournier was sent in, in the ninth5 One run would have tied tho score Fournier hit two lino fouls, along iirst base and then struck out For his failure, he got a round cussing from McCredie. in the clubhouse. In lheI afternoon same, tho same situation arose Fournier was sent in for iheI pinch, and on the fir8t ball pitched by Browning, nearly tore the boards oltI the centerfield fence. Portland won on that hit From that time on heI was fixture on the Portland team, until he was drafted by Comis- key. In Che last season Fournier got two home runs off Walter Johnson in the same game, and again knocked out two S-ply swats of Johnson atI Chicago. Flo finished tho season w.th a batting average of 313, end with a fair fielding average. Flo originally was a catcher. but Comiskey has used him in the outdeld and on first base. He is % years old, weighs 190 pounds, and Is 6 feet, three inches tall.

The Football oooslp


 Tom Macdonald and George sam pies of Treadwen were over Thurs day night on Q flaming" expedition. Tom is disappointed that the second game Of football was not played be- tween Treadwen and Juneau, because Of the arrangements which had been made on the Island for both games. However. Juneau lost money on the season, as Treadwell has. and only Che generosity Of B. L. Thane in caring for the deficit created here, saved the day for the promoters of the contests. Football is by no means dead on Gastineau channel, and next year should loo @ big year for the sport here.

 From time to time, a great deal of date has been compiled upon this questions but the Mothers Congress has found that, In the main, it is largely too technical for general use.

 The question of establishing g simpler form of dress in the schools for tho young girl pupils also has direct bearing on this nourlshment problem. One mother told me that her daughter spent ono hour every morning dressing for school, and that she could not possibly get ready to so in less time.

 Now if girls who spend that much time in costuming them selves dressed in middle biouses and skirts or shir. waists and skirts. great deal of this mad hustle which takes so much time from the meal hours of the school girl could be done away with.
 And such a reform would be an early one to institute. If a few daughters adopt some simple sensible costume appropriate for school wear. a great many of the others would fan into line.
 The members of the Congress of Mothers are also yitaliy interested in .he question of bringing about some relief for the principals of graded schools in Washington.
