GERMANS DRIVEN
FROM BULLECOURT
OFFENSIVE OF 5RIToNs AND
FRENCH RESULTS IN TRIUMPH
AFTER DAYS OF FIGHTING.
Thousands OF Fresh German Troops
Thrown Into the Fray Unable to
Thrust Back the Advancing
Armies Of the Allies.

LondOn.-After days of most inten
siye fighting, In which the position
several times changed hands and mel
fell In hundreds in attacks and coun-
terattacks, the British forces have at
last driven the Germans out of the
village of Bullecourt and once more
are threatening the southern end OF
the Drocourt Queant line, which Field
Marshal Won Hlndenburg constructed to
| defend Cambria from the eastward adj
vance of Field Marshal Halg's army.
Thousands of fresh German troops
recently have been thrown into the
fray around Bullecourt, but their eff
forts, according to official communion
tons, have gone for naught in endeav-
oring to drive out the British from the
entire village. Although several times
the liz has been bent by the preoon-
derance of weight of the German for
nations, at no time have the British
been forced to evacuate, holding here
and there fringes of the outskirts and
keeping back the Teutons until their
elements We're reformed with suffi- |
Client strength to make effective coun-
terattacks and regain their lost terri
tory.
Likewise to the east of Arras around !
the village Of Roeux, the battle has
been waged viciousness scarcely
ever before seen, and here also the
British have been successful against
the Germans.
Berlin reports that 70 the first six
teen days of May the Germans made
prisoner of 5000 British and French
soldiers on the French front-290O of
them British and 2700 French.

SEVEN MILLION ARE SLAIN.
Fearful Toll Of Life as Result Of
World War.

London.-The number of men killed
ia the war thus far was estimated at
seven million by Arthur Henderson,
member OF the war council, In mn ad-
dress Saturday ut Richmond. He estl-
mated the total casualties OF the war to
be ia excess OF the population OF the
United Kingdom, (1'he population OF
the United Kingdom, according TO the
census OF 1911, was 45,3T0hS0.)
MFR. Henderson said that after nearly
three years OF military effort which
was unprecedented there was no im-

war and rs prolongatlon tempted some

FOOD PREJUDICE IS COSTLY
Learn to Know All the Good Things to
Eat, Not a Few Only, Urge Gov.
ernment Experts.

Don't be finicky. Be willing to try
new foods. Certain plentiful and nour-
ishing foods widely used and enjoyed
In one section are practically unknown
in other sections Of the country. Learn
to know all the good things, not few
only, urge government food experts.
People too easily get into food ruts |;
insist on eating only the food they
are used to, and refuse to give O. fair
trial to others. This causes undue de-
mand for certain staples, with result
ing scarcity or high prices when crops
are short. At the same time other
valuable foods may be relatively cheap
and available. A striking instance Of
this Is failure fully to appreciate rice
"a valuable source of starch-when
potatoes are scarce and high. Another
example is refusal in certain sections
to use anything but wheat as bread
stuff, when cOrn-a valuable cereal
widely used elsewhere as a breadstuff
lis plentiful and relatively cheap.
