 This first book of his is by all odds the best American novel that has appeared in many a long day. It is earnest, sincere, broad in scope and purpose. well balanced, combining intellect and emotion. The charac- ters are ably drawn. strikingly entrusted, essentially Ameri- can. Here in this vision of the harbor is focused much of our modern world, it's perplexi- ties, it's struggles and it's ideals. Mir Poole may be congrat- ulated upon having written an absorbingly interesting and very significant novel,"

 "A fine new American story, in the spirit of the hour. A work which must be placed at once among the rare books that count-which may prove quite possibly to be the distinctive American novel of the year. :. He finds in the harbor the glory and the wretchedness of the world, together with a new, vast breadth of outlook and a new depth of thought. The New York it presents is no linn tied city, but a vast world cen ter of ideas. ideals. hope, pas sions and struggles"

Our other army of the center, acting on the right of the one just referred to, had been trusted with the mission during the 7th, Sth and 9th of disengag1ng it's neighbor and it was only on the 10th that, be- ing reinforced by an army corps from the east, 1t was able to make its action effectively felt. On the 11th the Ger mans retired. But, perceiving their danger, they fought desperately with enormous expenditure of projectiles behind strong entrenchments. On the 18th the result had none the less been attained and our two center armies were solidly established in the ground gained
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-03-27
THE OPERATIONS
 ON OUR RIGHT

To the right of these two armies were three others. They had orders to cover themselves to the north and to debouch toward the west on the flank of the enemy operating to the west of the Argonne. But a wide in- terval in which the Germans were in force separated them from our cen ter. The attack took place, neverthe- less. with very brilliant success for our artillery, which destroyed II batteries of the Sixteenth German army corps
 On the 10th the Eighth and Fifteenth German army corps counter attacked but were repulsed. On the 11th our progress continued with new successes and on the 18th we were able to face round toward the north in expectation of the near and inevitable retreat of the enemy which in fact took place from the 18th.
 The withdrawal of the mass of the German force involved also that of the left. From the 18th onward the forces of the enemy operating between Nancy and the Vosges retreated in a hurry before our two armies of the east, which imm mediately occupied the posi- tions the enemy had evacuted. The de- fensive of our right had thus prepared and consolidated in the most useful way the result secured by our left and our center.
 Such was this seven days battle, in which more than two million men were engaged. Each army gained ground step by step, opening the road to it's neighbor, supported at once by it, talk ing in flank the adversary which, the day before. it had attacked in front the efforts of one articulating closely with those of the other, a perfect unity of intention and method animating the supreme command.
 To give this victory all it's meaning it is necessary to add that it was gained by troops who for two weeks had been retreating and who when the order for the offensive was given were found to be as ardent as on the firsl day. 1t also has to be said that these troops had to meet the whole German army and that from the time they marched forward they never agair fell back Under this pressure the Ger man retreat at times had the appear ance of a rout.
 In spite of the fatigue of our men in spite of the power of the German heavy artillery, we took colors, guns mitrailleuses, shells, more than a. mil lion cartridges and thousands Of pris- oners. A German corps lost almost the whole of it's artillery. which, from in formation brought by our airmen, was destroyed by our guns.

SEVERE BATTLES OCCUR
ON ITALIAN FRONTIER

Verona, May 80 (via the Italian
frontier and Paris, 5:15 p. MA
battle along the Adige river began on
Thursday at noon, when Alpine troops
with infantry detachments and GUS
toms guards, and mountain artillery
proceeded from Peri, occupying
Borghetto and Avio and attacking
Ala
Stronger resistance was offered by
the Austrians at Pilcante, opposite
Ala. The Austrians were protected by
three lines of entrenchments and in
flicted considerable Losses on the
Italians, who finally succeeded how
ever, in occupying the first line and
then opened violent bombardment
on the other.
Threatened also by batteries of
Monte Altssmo, which might have
cut off their retreat, the Austrians
retired from Pilcante at sunset, leav-
ing behind arms, ammunition and
provisions They were pursued as far
as Serraville, four miles north, and
several were made prisoners. The
Italians then returned to Pilicante
and Ala, where they cntrenchcd
themselves while the Austrians re-
tired to Mori
In the mountainous region known
as Settle Comuni, north of Asiago, the
fighting is confined to an artillery
attack. which has as its object the ST.
lencing of Austrian Notifications on
the high plateau of Del Varone,
which once conquered would make it
easier for the Italians to march
against Trent or Rovereti.
The Austrian forts are replying
vigorously TO the Italian lombard
ment. Most of these Qualifications
have armored easements with four
to eight guns with a straight trajec-
tory from two to four with a curved
trajectory for long distance firing
besides considerable number Of
machine guns. Four of these forts
built at an elevation of $500 feet near
Morte Cimone, are said to be reply
ing more feebly, indicating that the
Italian fire Is taking effect
