reached Italian line to resist inyad-
ers.
The Austro-Germans have begun a
new offensive operation on the lower
Piaye.
Lively skirmishes between the Brit
ish and opposing forces have taken
place near Jerusalem.
Americas Rainbow Division is in
France, along with other National
Guard units.
Ten divisions strong, the Belgian ar
my is ready to take its part in the
offensive in Flanders whenever the
word is given.
Violent artillery actions are report
ed around st. Quentin and near Yer
dun. The Paris report says several
raids were attempted by the enemy
but that they proved futile.
Large numbers of American army
engineers, working on the British
railways in the region Of Gouzeau-
court, caught in the German turning
movement escaped by lying in shell
holes and on the ground while the
British fired over them.
Thirty-fiye Mexican bandits were
killed and many wounded In a battle
at Buena Vista. Tex, between United
States cayalrymen and force of 200
Mexicans which crossed the interna-
tional line and attempted raids on Til ,
cattle ranches. One U. s. soldier and
TWO ranchmen were slain.
The brilliant record OF the French
ayiators, including the members Of
the Lafayette escadrille for the ten
months ending in October shows that
they destroyed 10 German airplanes
over the French lines and 397 over
the German lines whose destruction
has been fully confirmed.
Nine separate counter attacks
launched against Masnieres by strong
German forces Saturday were all re-
pulsed after most sanguinary fighting.
although the British pulled their line
back somewhat to lessen the sharp
salient there. An intense battle ragged
all day, and IL is stated that the Brit
ish killed more Germans between day
light and dark than in any similar
period since the war began. 1t was
virtually continuous fight from the
start of the first counter attack. Ger.
many claims the capture Of 1000 pris-
oners and several batteries.

Why of Course.

Though thoroughly patriotic, john
ny, aged nine, dining with his mother
In one Of the cafeterias on wheatless
day, could not understand why he
should eat corn bread instead OF the
usual white bread, relates the Indian
apolis News.
In the argument that ensued his
mother, losing her temper, ordered the
young man 'to get outside of his por-
ton of bread right away"
After a thoughtful moment Johnny
commented: Mother, then | would be

turned back to the treasury from pos
tai revenues, the estimated sum for
which Congress actually is expected
to appropriate is s13,0lS.725.595. No
