WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS WITH
THE BRITISH ON THE WESTERN
FRONT-HilI No. 20 ran red with
blood to-day as the German divisions
were sacrificed in their repeated ef-
forts to recapture this important DOM
mating point from the Canadians.
Along the entire new Lens battle front
the most desperate fighting has been
in progress for the past - hours. The
Canadians repulsed all attacks. Today
the Canadians recaptured Cite St Au-
guste from which they were forced last
night. The number OF prisoners Will
probably greatly exceed the first estf-
mates. The Germans have deserted
large number of guns. The Canadians
fought valiantly, hanging onto every
position with bulldog tenacity. There
were many Americans among the Can
adams in this fighting.

Major r. D. Gwydir Will
Preside Over Barbecue
in Approved Style
A PIONEER OF THE WEST
Knows the Indians Like a BOOk-What
They Think Of Him in Spokane as
Barbecue Artist

Major r. D. Gwydir of Spokane is in
Moscow to roast that OK for Latah's
enlisted men tomorrow. The major
has won the sobriquet of the "Barbe-
cue King of the Inland Empire" on his
merit. He learned the art from a
negro in the Bluegrass region of Ken
lucky 60 years ago, and he is now
ready to challenge any man on the
western half of the American contin-
ent to a barbecue contest.
Major Gwydir came to the Inland
Empire in 1886 when he was appointed
Indian agent by President Cleveland.
He has been in this section ever since
and is an authority on pioneer his
tory. Buffalo Bill never had anything
on Major Gwydir for appearance. If
there was ever a typical southern col
onel, he is it.
Not long since Spokane held barbe
cue in honor of the enlisted soldiers
in that city 1t was a success; 5000
persons were served in an hour and
half and there was not hitch. The
from the Spokane Chamber
of Commerce tells the story:
Spokane, July IS, 1917.
Major r. D. Gwydir.
2510 Boone Ave.
Dear Major: We feel that the sue
cess of the barbecue given on Mon
lay to the soldiers and enlisted men
stationed in our city was due so much
20 your efforts that it is very difficult
% express our thanks.
When the barbecue was first pro-
posed it was unanimously agreed that
f you took hold of it the affair would
De complete success. In every way
you justified this belief.
The food was so well cooked and all
If your arrangements so thoroughly
made that virtually all the committee
,ould do was to stand by and applaud
our work
You know how thoroughly our
quests enjoyed the affair And, as
tated before, We want you to know
hat we thoroughly appreciate your
work and thorough un-
elfish spirit.
We beg to remain,
Yours most sincerely,
JAMES L. PAINE,
President, Spokane Chamber of Com
merce, and other officers.
