Entire Country Seems To Be
 Imbued With Patriotic Spirit

Reports From All Section Indicate Buy a-Bale" Plan Is Gaining Support-Pine Bluffs Campaign to
 Be Planned Today.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1914-09-17

Paris, Sept. 16-The rear guard en- gagement upon which the German re- treating right wing entered on Mon day, September 14, has developed into what promises so to be the decisive battle of the campaign in France.
 Fighting proceeded with renewed fury today all along the 110-mile battle front, in which nearly all o1 the 2,000000 men Of the rival armies together with about 500,000 rein forcements in the allies, are engaged
 The Germans are fighting strictly on the defensive, battling furiously to prevent the utter rout of the armies whose realignment their covering movement was designed to protect.
 Though no definite results have come out of the three days, fighting the enemy is being forced back steadily before tine allied forces, but is fighting with dogged resistance every mile of the way. The advance of the allies is described by the war office as steady; but not rapid.
 For the allies the situation con- tinues favorable generally.
 The Germans have delivered several counter attacks and have occupied several new positions, from which they have made occasional sallies, but always have been repulsed.
 The British First corps under Lieut-Gen. Sir Douglass Haig, the hero of Maubeuge and Guise, forms the center of the allies line of at

will plain campaign and then, with the aiu of other patriots, will proceed to wage jt.
 Lieutenants are to be named, and every person called upon must do his part to make the movement the suc- cess it should be. The gentlemen called upon to lead the campaign have no more interest at stake than thousands of others. They are going to give their time and ability out Of patriotism, loyalty to the South and a desire to serve the community and the interests of every one in 1t.
 Spreading Like Wildiire.
 Every day sees the movement spreading. People in all parts of the country are evincing commendable spirit to aid the South at this crisis. It is the purpose to show to the world that Pine Bluff does not depend en- tirely upon others; that it is willing to help itself and will do so to the full extent of it's ability. It is pro- posed and expected that every person who is able will do his duty. It is not only a duty to the community; to the South, but to ones own family and himself. For unless there is a change in the situation, and that soon, plants will begin to shut down business houses to reduce their forces and policy of general retrenchment inaugurated. This means that many will be out of jobs. That's why this movement concerns YOU.

 Germans Welcome Capture.
 The German losses have been heavy The British center captured 200 prisoners during the day. Many de- tached bodies of the invaders have been abandoned to be taken as pris- oners by the allies, and numerous groups of stragglers hidden in orests have been taken into camp pris- oners a condition which they eloom- ed, owing to their exhaus ana hungered state. t's&
 The battle front extends from the region of Noyon to the plateau north Of Vic-sur-Aisne and from SoissOns- le- Mass and Laon to the heights north and west of Rheims; another line runs from the district nor h of Ville- sur-Tourbe to the west of the Argon- ne region, and thence along third line north of Zarennes, just evacuat- ed by the Germans, to the river Mouse at point near Foges, north of Yer dun.
 Along this whole front the fight ing has been forced upon the Ger mans, principally because of the re- sistance offered by the fortresses of Toyon, F miles southeast of Verdun, ------------------------- ------
