EIGHT DAYS ON
FRONT IS ENOUGH

GRAND HEADQUARTERS OF THE
FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE, Sept.
22.-(By The Associated Press.)-
Thirty-five German divisions have
been engaged in the fighting in Elan
ders during the course of the six weeks
from July IS to Aug. %. eight of which
are still in the front lines.
Nineteen of the German divisions
have been withdrawn and now are
undergoing reformation In rest camps,
the other eight being assigned to de-
fend quiet sectors along the fighting
front and elsewhere.
The average duration of the occupa-
ton Of front trenches by German di-
visions before their withdrawal Is only
eight days in which time the losses
become so heavy that their retirement
is compulsory. During a similar
period of the Somme battle year ago
thirty-four German divisions were en-
gagged, % of which were withdrawn,
as a consequence of casualties after
- days fighting. During the Verdun
fighting, which begon on Aug. 90, ten
German divisions, including four re-
serve divisions were withdrawn after
fighting from a minimum Of two days
to a maximum Of four days. Eight Of
these divisions were regarded as ex-
hausted. Six new divisions, which re-
placed them, now occupy the line.

General Maurice Is
Impressed Chiefly
With Flemish Mud

LONDON, Sept. 22.-Major General
Frederick B. Maurice, Director of
Military Operations at the War ONCE,
who has just returned from one Of
his frequent trips to the front in
France, was asked by the Associated
Press correspondent what phase of
battlefront activity had on this oc-
casion impressed him most
Always the same thing,-the mud"
he replied TT Is the most remark
able mud In the world. AS an enemy
it Is more persistent than the German
and more deadly than his artillery"
II had remarkable lesson of the
power of the Flanders mud during my
week in the battle area. l visited a
hospital where they had two of our
men who had been rescued after
spending thirty hours in the grip Of
a Flanders mud-hole. The two men,
advancing across No-Man's land in the
semi-darkness, had stumbled into an
old shell-hole and found themselves
inextricably in the clutches Of the
thick mud at the bottom. When they
were found, they had been there for
thirty hours, and had been drawn
Waist-deep into the clay.
"All sorts of eXpedients we're tried
to extricate them, and it was finally
deemed necessary to fit a harness to
them and pull them out with a team
of mules. Both men had their hips
and knees dislocated in the process.
That is Flanders mud

PARIS, Sept. PA landowner Of
Vergeze has received the following let
ter from his son, staff captain:
'1 heard strange story today, that
woman and a boy Of sixteen had been
found among the men of the -battal-

vestigation was made and they were
found to be the wife and the son of a
chasseur who had determined not to be
separated from him. Both went into
the trenches with the other poilus, and
the most striking thing about it is that
they had been with the battalion for
five months before the authorities
found out. Of course, everybody in
the battalion knew, but as you see the
secret was we'll kept
"As an old chasseur yourself, you
will be proud to learn that father
