ADMIT LOSSES

Berlin, July 15.-(Via London. )-The con tinuation of the British attack on the German lines between Pozieres and Longueval resulted in their penetrating the German lines and effecting a gain of territory the war office announced today. The British also have occupied Trones wood. The fighting is continuing, although the attack has been stemmed, adds the statement which says
 British attacks which followed the first sangunary repulse suffered by them north of the Somme led to heavy fighting. By his forces massed between Pozieres and Longueval the enemy in spite of the most severe losses, succeeded in pene trating our lines and gaining some ground. He also occupied Trones wood.
 'The attack has been stemmed, but the fighting is being continued.
 South of the Somme there wa sno in- fantry activity.
 Aside from futile actions undertaken by small British attachments east of Armentieres in the region of Angres, .n the Neuville sector and northeast of Arras, nothing of importance occurred on the rest of the front.

GOODRICH TRADEMARK

THE "Age of Rubber is in sight!
 Hard upon the Age of Steel,''
 1 comes this new Epoch in World History.
 As the Forests went down before the Woodman's Axe, Steel rose up to take the place of Wood, with huge additional field of it's own.
 As the Ranch, and open Cattle Ranges, yield to the Farm, so the Source of Supply for Leather recedes, while the population, which must wear Shoes, increases.
 Here steps in RUBBER, with a fast growing production, ora Plantations, ready to 7epIace Leather,,-in the near future, - at lower cost for better service, plus thou- sand uses of it's own.
 When Raw Rubber reaches that Jevel of Cost which the huge expansion of Rubber Plantations predicates, myriad uses will be added to those in which the present relatively limited supply is now consumed.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-07-16

The significant feature of above is the enormously increased growth of Catltivated Rubber, -on Plantations
 That is what lifts the Rubber Industry out of the hard bound Limitations of the Leather working Industry, and other In- dustries dependent upon a receding supply of Raw Material for an increasing Population.
 The World should be vastly interested in Sound Dependable, and Scientific expansion of the RUBBER Indl.stry.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-07-16

Because, Rubber is such an odaptable material that it is capable of not only substi- tuting the most important of Failing Mater ials, which (like Leather) are disastrously lessening in production but, it already enters into scores of forms that touch tue llfe of fevery person today
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-07-16


 TT is the wide comprehension of
 Rubber FUTURES which makes
 4 the B. F. Goodrich Co., so CAREFUL that the Symbol of the House, (that Goodrich Trade-Mark which is pictured at top of this column) shall never be placed on an uaaOortlay Rubber product.
 It is that Trade Mark (of the House of Goodrich), which protects the Purchaser of Rubber-Goods, when he looks for it on any Rubber-Article, and recognizes it as the SIG- NATURE and BOND of the AT year old Concern which here writes itself down as keenly alive to the importance of TOMORROW, in the Rubber field.
 Itis the clear Vision of that great 'Tomor- row. which prompts the B. F. Goodrich Go. to for instance) price it's TIRES so far BELOW figures which the QUALITY of these Tires could command when their PERFORM ANCE is compared with that of other Tires listed at 151o to 50ao higher prices.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-07-16

Wv Ideals understand that Good rich Tires are PURPOSELY made the BEST Fabric Tires that the largest Rubber Factory in the World can produce at ANY price Will you realSe, from it, that when you pay more than the Goodrich Fair-Lst prices here quoted, for ANY Fabric Tire,- you are NOT getting BETTER 7 Tires?
 Will you assist in making that great To- morrow of the Rubber Age' MORE helpful to all Humanity, by encouraging NOW the fair and MODERATE prices for Tires, and on today?

BORLAND'S SILLY NOTION.

Representative Borland of Mis-
souri,, is the most unpopular man in
Washington; all because he wanted to
fire $500 civil service clerks who have
nothing to do except to sign the pay
roll, and to make the balance of the
government clerks work from in the
morning until in the afternoon. The
Washington Herald voices the plant
Of the clerks by saying this was n
plan to saddle an excessive working
day on the government clerks Of
Washington" The working day is
all too long as It is. since there is
hardly time for golf and tennis be-
tween 1880 and "supper-time." II
Borland had studied his political econ
omy he might have known that Con-
gress would hold TO the old rule that
public office is a private snap" and
would protect the people who are ben
efciaries OF the system.

BABIES NOT WANTED.
(Chicago Newa.l

The baby that wasn't wanted-it
lay in an alley covered with dirt, hid
den under a newspaper and dead. A
man walking along in the rear Of 1928
Latin street saw it, called police
man, who carried It gingerly to the
morgue.
Somebody's baby" said the Dep
uty Coroner, Sam l.. Davis, in charge
of the morgue, as it he placed it on the
slab.
The baby's body is there now.
THE baby that wasn't wanted" is
the morgue's chief stock in trade. The
morgue keeper admitted that today.
strangers are bringing them in nearly
every day-about twenty or thirty a
month. They pick them up on the
roof tops, in ash barrels, in alleys, in
Easements where mothers, or fathers,
or friends have thrown them. Usu-
ally the baby that wasn't wanted is a
day or two days old. Sometimes it is
ten days old, sometimes a month.
Nothing unusual at ALL" said Mr..
Davis. I'VE never find the parents, the
police look, but there's no chance.
Lord, babies are executed at the rate
of five or six a day in Chicago. We
don't find all of them. The greater
part of them Just disappear with time.
Once in a great while the deputy
said, the mystery of the baby that
wasn't wanted is solved. A mother re-
penis She comes weeping to the
morgue. They notice her hanging
around, wanting to get a look. Police
believe babies found on the South Side
come from the North Side and vice
versa.
During the year the mOrgue handles
more than 300 babies that weren't
wanted. There isn't any comment
among the morgue attendants when
the unwelcomcd stranger is brought
in. It's "old stuff The morgue
keeper declared it's been going on ever
since he can remember and probab-
ly a few centuries before that
You'd be surprised" he said, Ito
learn of the different places we find
them" And he gave a list that was
as varied as a list of places
could be.
The last of the babies who weren't
wanted-the one picked up in the alley
last night-will be buried today Some
where a woman will breathe relieved,
a man sigh and shake his head and
take up life again with the mystery of
that little bundle that was dropped in
the alley safely locked in their hearts

LIFE RESTORED TO BABE BY AR.
TIFICIAL RESPIRATION.

Haverhill, Mass.--A babe, born dead
to Mrs. Antonio Schavoni, 80 Harri-
son street, was brought to life twenty
minutes later, according to a state
ment made by DR.. A. ]. Grandmaison,
attending physician. The child, girl,
was born at the Schavoni home.
Use of a stethoscope failed to
show a sign of life when the babe was
born, but DR.. Grandmaison breathed
into the childs mouth constantly for
twenty minutes. Then the infant
gasped. he says.
A pulmotor was sent for and re-
newed efforts were made by the ply
stefan. At the end of twenty-nine
more minutes, he declares, the babe
was breathing normally. The child
later showed ability to use her lungs.
DR.. Grandmaison has not yet ex.
planned fully how the babe was
brought to life. He simply declares
that artificial respiration, first by his
own breathing and then by use of the
pulmotor, succeeded in bringing life
where his instruments had failed to
find a heart beat.

"Out of the complicated world sit

Importance to us" says Merle Crowell
in the American Magazine. First, the
United States hereafter must do most,
IL not all, of its own financing; sec
ond, this country, IL II desires to keep
company with prosperity, must quit
being a borrowing nation and become
a lending nation, permanently.
ITO do this we need much more
money than we have saved up; but,
once having done it, we shall become
the banker, the trade leader, of the
world--the most prosperous nation in
history.
Taken altogether. the United States
has a man-size job in prospect. 1t has
got to stand on its own financial bot
tom. swing European war loans, alb
sorb the three or four billion dollars
Of American securities held abroad,
lend a hand to the rehabilitation of
subsiding Mexico. open its purses to
those South American republics, which
formerly made Europe their bankers,
and the perform the other functions
Of fiscal agent for the civilized world.
ITO carry this program through will
require billions of dollars more than
we have at hand-and the persons who
contribute toward these billions are
the ones who will share most largely
in the national prosperity that fol-

KAISERS CHANCELLOR CITES VIC.
TORIES TO SHOW TEUTONs
NEED NOT BEND KNEE.

Berlin, April 6.--What is regarded
here as the most comprehensive
speech on the war from any Euro
pean statesman was delivered yester-
day to an enthusiastic assembly Of the
Reichstag by Chancellor Won Both
mann-Hollweg.
The chancellor's most important
declarations we're on peace term, on
the relations of the Central Powers
toward the United States and on the
alleged futility of the allies blockade
of Germany.
The chancellor wanted It understood
clearly that when in a recent speech
he had declared his country's readi-
ness to discuss peace terms this was
as 1t is now, as victor to the con-
quered. Then, as now, he said, Ger
many's enemies declined.
In order to show that Germany does
not need to make peace overtures he
pointed out that the Dardanelles en-
terprise had ended as a failure; that
the Serbian campaign, with the assist
ance Of AUSTRIA Hungary and Bulgaria
had been brought to a victorious con-
clusion, and that Montenegro and AL
bania likewise were now in the hands
of German allies; that the British
attempt to relieve Kut-El-Amara, in
Mesopotamia had been in vain; that
the Russians. although they had sue
ceeded in occupying Erzerum with SUI
perior forces, had found their advance
checked by strong Turkish forces 4
that Russian attacks against the front
in East Galicia and Italian attacks
against the Isonzo positions had been
beaten back. Moreover, he said, the
Russians had driven columns against
the German lines, but their assaults
had broken down before Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg and his heroes.
The chancellor declared that the re-
ports Of the enemies of this nation
that the German military force had
been expended were erroneous as the
Verdun battle has proved that where
operations are prepared with great
foresight and where the bravery Of
German troops is called into play one
after another Is obtained.
