illinois has always had such a con-

our country from the perilous position

time was given an explanation of the
withdrawal.
Forts Douaumont and vaux, it was
explained, formed such q material
element in the defense OF Verdun as
long as they remained with unimpaired
armament In French hands that they
had to be put out of action in order to
cripple the fortress, and once this was
accomplished the ruins Of the forts,
with the armaments removed, possessed
no such Importance to the Germans.
and served chiefly as targets for the
French artillery.
Now that Fort Douaumont had
passed again into French possession
Fort Vaux no longer. in the opinion
Fof the German leaders justified the
heavy sacrifices necessary to retain
the ground about the fort which Is
ill-adapted to defense against attacks
from the south and west.
Fort Vaux, therefore, was aban-
doned ana tine German lines retired
to positions less exposed to the
French artillery.
