Along a one-mile front the British
have advanced another thousand
yards and have captured a German
fortified work. which had previously
resisted all their efforts. This OPP
GRAFTON is characterized by Gen. Haig,
the British commander. as important
and highly successful. 1t is indi-
cative of the intention of the British
commander to force the battle along
the Somme front without cessation,
the new advance being a continuation
of the powerful movement under
taken by the British and French on
Friday last.
North and south of the Somme in
France, British and French troops
are keeping up their vigorous often
sive and have achieved further sue
cesses and put down strong German
counter attacks. South of Combles.
the French have taken additional
trenches. making stronger their in
vestment of the little town, which
now is almost completely surround
ed. Having evacuated Deniecourt,
south of the river. the Germans have
been driven back about two-thirds of
a mile toward Ablaincourt. South of
BarleauX a German trench, west of
H%orginia, has been captured.
Fierce artillery fighting is still in
progress in the sectors of the Per
onne-Bapaume road. Sunday and
Monday more than 1900 Germans
were taken prisoners by the French
in the Deniecourt sector.
Artillery is active in the Cham
payne region. On the Verdun front
the French have captured a trench
on the southern slope of the famous
Dead Mans hill.

SPLENDID RECOGNITION.

The Mitterling Piano House just
received a letter from the famous
Mehlin Piano company, i'm which they
state. We take great pleasure in ad-
vising you that We have just received
an order for seventy-five of our in
verted grand pianos and n of our
orchestral concert grands, for the
college, Nashville. Tenn. This is one
of the largest and most prominent fe-
male colleges in the country, being
over sixty years old and occupying
eleven buildings. The Mehlin piano
replaces all the other pianos used i'm
the institution and will be the Of
fetal piano there. This is the largest
cash order given by any college on
record. See the Mehlin at the store.
Another recognition. The great
Syracuse university at Syracuse, N.
Y, lately purchased seventeen Lester
pianos for the conservatory after a
most exaeting test of many makes.
The Lester pianos are used in over
100 musical schools and colleges. See
the fine Testers in u store that
were personally selected when at the
factory a few months ago. A large
number of other makes were person
ally selected. No store in South Da-
kota has as many high class pianos
in stock as now in our ore.
