ANN BENNINGTON MAKES
 DECIDED HIT AT THE DREAM

Manager Thompson, you can't show Ann Pennington any too often. She is a clever little girl, a regular pocket edition of Marguerite Clark and that is saying good deal Any other pro- ductions in which she appears-get them, for the little woman is all there even to the dimples in her knees.
 Ann Pennington is the star which opened at the Dream yesterday mat inee and will be there for two shows nightly. tonight and tomorrow. She is cute. has a good play and that is sufficient And she can dance-and does.
 Susie is. the daughter of an actress who takes up the profession almost as soon as she can walk. The show she is in fails and she is forced to go to the home of two maiden aunts who are mortified at her being an actress. Susie is requested to render a dance at the Church benefit. She does her ballet dress and manages to shock her au- dience. She is only saved from dis grace by the appearance of her lover. But this is only part of the plot 1t is all good.

those who desire to take advantage
OF this line Of work an opportunity TO

FRENCH HURL BACK
GERMAN ATTACKS

Paris, July 16-The Germans made
series Of strong attacks last night
between the ,Somme and the Afsne and
in the Champagne. Today's official
announcement says they were repell-
ed everywhere except near Mont
Haul, in the Champagne, where they
retained few trench elements.
The statement ,follows:
between the Somme and the
Aisne the enemy delivered a series of
strong attacks, preceded by lombard
ments. Three attempts in the vicinity
Of st. Quentin were broken up by our
fire: South Of Corbeny several de-
tachments of shock troops attacked
our small posts After a very spirited
engagement the enemby was repuls-
ed completely On OR part we
made progress south Of ALLIES and
took prisoners.
"In the Champagne. after a very
violent bonlbardment in the region
of Mont Haul and Teton the Germans
hurled important forces against the
position we coquered on July A. Our
troops resisted with indomitab1e en-
ergy and tenacity the attack of an enc
my greatly superior in numbers.
'At Teton the efforts Of the enemy
were without success. The attack
ing forces, which suffered very heav-
lily, were not able to cut into oui
lines. At Mont Haut there was 8
violent action which continued al
through the night. The enemy, who
succeeded at first in recapturing 9
large part of the ground we had won
was hurled back by our troops In 9
brilliant counter attack. Certain
trench elements are all that RENAL
in the enemy's hands"
