He Described War

April showers do not always bring
May flowers; do they? Yesterday,
and in fact, for several days, there
has been a bountiful supply of April
rains, but this morning few evidences
of May flowers are seen.
It seems that no rule holds true this
year. The exception is the rule now
Perhaps the scarcity of sunshine
this May day is due to the war Why
not? Everything else is blamed on
the war. You know the hens do not
lay as many eggs now as they did be-
fore the war, neither do the cows
give as much milk. And it is reported
that the maple trees did not give as
much sap as before. 1t is quite Iogi-

SCHOOLS PAY ST
FOR COAL SUPPLY

High cost OF coal and the Prohibi-
uon bill are worrying the school board.
At its meeting last night the school
board awarded the contract for coal
for the schools to Mather Brothers
company. The price of the coal is 81
per ton, which is twice as much as
paid this year. This will mean an ad-
ded expense Of about $4,000 more than
last year. Due to the prohibition bill
there will be a loss of $4,000 liquor IL
cense next year. AS the situation now
stands it is quite probable that taxes
will be raised this year.

high school has instituted, was en-
dorsed.

blow on the western front when forty
miles Of the strongest part of her
lines were wrested from her with an
estimated loss of nearly 100000 killed,
wounded and prisoners as a result of
the opening yesterday of the French
offensive.
The attack began along n twenty
five mile front from scissors to
Rheims, extending the great western
battle distance of close to 150 miles
The battle opened on the left of the
line where, shortly after s o'clock in
the morning the French infantry
swept forward in an irresistible wave.
In spite of stiff resistance the Ger
mans were driven back and inside of
half an hour prisoners began stream
ing toward the French rear by hun
dreds. The struggle was hottest east
of LoiVre as we'll as in the whole sec
tor of Berry -au-Bach and to the east
of Craonnelle but the French heavy
shells were too much for the Germans
and before noon the whole first line
was won.
On the right the action began a lit
tie later in the morning. The French
met with a determined resistance and
the fighting was terrible. After sew
