one army in Paris and that il would be
held for the capitals defense. As a
matter OF fact there were two-the
army Of Paris and the army Of Maun-
curry.
In the meantime the British, with
five infantry divisions and five bri-
gades Of cavalry, were moving north
eastward with comparatively little re-
sistanee. By night they had reached a
position astride the Grand NORM. their
right being at Dagny, on the Aubetin
river.
Further east the fighting had been
much hotter for here il was a frontal
attack. D 'Esperey had 10 carve his way

along the river Oureq were piled high

desperate attacks the French merely
held their own.
The eighth seems to have been the
critical day Maunoury kept up his
advance with the Brrlsn on his right
while Foeh saw the opening for his
wedge. During the night he continued
his manOuvers so that at dawn on the

H. S. GILE RETURNS
FROM EXPOSITION
Manager Of Fruit Union In
pressed With Advertising
Oregon Receives

II. 5. Gle, manager Of the Willamette
Valley Prune Association, is home from
an extended visit 10 the san Francisco
exposition. During his visit there, be
spent the greater part Of his time at
the Oregon building ami in assisting
those in charge Of the Willamette Val
ley display. What impressed him more
than anything else, was the wonderful
amount Of advertising Oregon is re
eeiying from the Oregon building aud
the displays Of the Willamette Valley
association. The efficiency Of the men
in charge Of the Willamette Valley dis
play has done much TO advertise this
part Of the state. At present, W. A.
Taylor. Of Maeleay, +, H. Warren, OF
Eugene. and H. Charles Dunsmore, Of
Independence, have charge Of the ex-
hibit Both Mr.. TAYLOR and Mr. Warren
are experienced men in this field, as
they had charge Of the Seattle exhibit
and understand the work.
These men have been untiring in their
efforts 10 answer all inquiries regarding
all sections Of the state and were broad
minded enough TO understand the great
benefit willamette Valley is to the ea.
tire state. Having lived in Oregon for
so many years, they were well informed
on any product and could satisfactorily
answer any questions.
The eastern people were especially in
terested in the display Of dried fruits,
said Mr.. Gile, and especially in the dis
plays Of the Willamette Valley Prune
association, the Salem Fruit Union and
II. S. Gile & Co. This exhibit included
that OF prnnes in all forms Of prepara.
tion, logunberries packed and the logan
berry Juice The eastern folks at once
became interested in the loganberry,
which according 10 Mr. Taylor, was
'Oregon's newest gift 10 the nation
The loganberry juice attracted hundreds
every lav who came 10 sample the
beverage they had heard so much about,
but had never tasted. To many visitors
from this section 4 the state, it seemed
that the large crowds in the Oregon
building were brought there by the at.
fractions OF the loganberry display and
the logaaberry juice so freely offered
them.
According 90 Mr., Gile, and others who
have recently returned from the Exposi-
tion, what is needed now in the Oregon
building is a fresh supply Of fruits Of
all kinds as well as celery, potatoes,
onions, sweet corn and other products
which possess special merit. The ex
position will eontinue until IN December
and in order 20 get these fresh exhibits
il will require the cooperation Of every
loyal Oregoniau with their nearest Com
mercial club. In this section. the vii
