With the American Forces on the Marne, Thursday, June 6-(By the Associated Press )-The second at tack made today by American marines on German positions northwest of Chateau Thierry early gave promise of being as successful as this morn iE's assault. The marines reached all their objectives set for the first hour within that time limit and push ed beyond them. The early reports indicated the Germans on the run for tke time being and surrendering right and left to the Americans.
 One of the toughest of all the ob- | jectives, Belleau wood, some four miles from Chateau Thierry, was swept by the marines without serious 1 trouble.
 There seemed reason to expe et German counter attacks in strength l before long. The roads behind the German lines are filled with troops guns and wagons, but the American artillery turned on them and created | havoc.
 The marines in their forward sweep took strong ground on either side | of Belleau wood and cleared out the ravine south of Torcy, which linked up the line with hill 142, which was | taken this morning. This gave them a strong and dominating position foa Ia continuation of their attack. Thei. totaI advance was about two miles o' a three mile front. The total num- Der of prisoners taken was not knowr this evening, but additional captives | were brought in after the morning attack, which netted about 100 pTis- oners.
 A notable development was the low morale of the prisoners, all Of whor, ale Prussians They expressed them selves as tired of the war and gla- tc get out of the fighting.

 It must not be imagined, however that they did not put up a fight this morning, for their officers were among them urging them on, but the marines dashed into them yelling like Indians and plying bayonet and rifle. One marine who was taking back a spr1s- oner ran into two German officers and l1O men. He tackled them single handed with his rife and bayonet killed both the officers and wounded seven of the men,

 ALL OBJECTIVEs Fierce Fighting Still Con tinues in Balleau Wood
 Artillery Performs.

With the American Forces on the Marne, June 7-(By the Associated Press)-The Ameri- can marines who began a sec ond attack on the German lines late yesterday captured the village of Torcy and drove their way into Bouresches, northwest of Chateau Thierry. This morning they were hold ing Torcy in the face of re- peated counter attacks and were pushing back the Ger mans through the streets of Bouresches.
 Virtually all their objectives in this attack were attained.
 i The American plan did not include the taking of Torcy, but the marines swept into it and drove out the Ger mans.
 The one point where the objective was not reached was on the right ot I the attack, in the Balleau wood. The fiercest fighting is continuing here. | American marines last night reached Fthe outskirts of Bouresches, northwest of Chateau Thierry, and poured vol | leys of machine gun fire into the en- emy inf1icting terrific casualties. Bay. Ionets were used freely against many of the Germans who attempted tc rcake stand in the streets. At day break today the marines were slowly driving the Germans back, in the face of heavy artillery fire, including ga: shells.
 The American artillery was per forming magnificently in this opera ton.
 With the French Army on tn | Marne, Thursday, June 6, 10.30. D. m I-(By the Associated Press)-Up t this hour the Americans and Frencl troops advancing between Veuilly l. PotNie and Torcy have reached tn outer edges of the town of Bussaire and Torcy.
 On the west the Allied line has car ried to Oranges farm, south of Gan delu, west of Veuilly. Belleau wooc east of Torcy, has been cleared of tn enemy. Further details are no available at this hour.
 The Americans comprise the de tachments on the left of the advane ing line. After capturing a smal wood shaped like the letter tn Americans reached the cemetery i, Veuilly and continued to press for ward slowly under a heavy fire fror German machine guns.
 During the attack this morning a dawn the German artillery fire agains the Allies was feeble, but the enem front line was well studded wit machine guns. In the action thi morning the Americans and Frenc advanced one kiIometre into the Ger man lines and captured 270 prisoner: including 10 officers.
 Forty-five minutes after the fightin started one French regiment had at , tained the border of Mares wood an the edge of a triangular wood 50 yards southeast of Bussaires, not : withstanding sharp resistance. Thi regiment alone took more than 10 prisoners.

beautiful rendition of Barcarolle =
from Tales of Hoffman, followed by
the vivacious melody from s'The Bo-
hemian Cir entitled "Gipsy Life. -
The mani address of the afternoon
was given by Miss Anne Neacy, dau-
ghter of Thomas Neacy of Milwaukee,
and well known in Kenosha. Miss
Neacy chose as her subject ''The
Life and Works of Christina Rosetti
and with gripping personality and in
an interesting way she told of the
Importance of the English poetess.
Interspersed in the address were fead-
ings from the poetry of the authoress,
all read with great deal of verve
and feeling. The address won the in
terest and enthusiastic support of the
members of the clup.
Prior to the address, Mrs. William
O 'Brien discussed as the current topic
for the afternoon William G. Me-
Adoo. - In a very interesting way
she showed how the Secretary of
the Treasury had met the unusual
duties imposed upon him by the pre-
sent crisis and had done it in such
way as to place him in order for
the dictatorship of the. American Rail-
ways recently. The paper also gave
interesting sidelights upon the mete-
orie career of the American banker and
builder.
In the business meeting a resolu-
tion was adopted to be sent to Con-
gresham Cooper urging that the zone
system for carrying magazines through
the mails should not be established as
now contemplated in bill before Con-
gress. 1t was pointed out that such
system would work irreparable harm
to the circulation of the magazines
and prevent the dissemination of pa
triotic and religious current literature
which should be encouraged. A letter
from Miss Cora Frantz of the Gilbert
M. Simmons Library was also read
asking that the members of the society
should give from their private ibrar-
les books for the soldiers and sailors
at the front. The appeal was referred
to the educational committee with a
recommendation that all members of
the club who found it at all possible
should cooperate in this important
duty.
Following the literary and business
meeting of the club, social hour was
enjoyed by the members at which Mrs.
Joseph G, Rhode was the hostess, af-
ter which the members left for their
separate homes universally declaring
the meeting to have been one of the
most interesting and successful of the
year.

"OLD MELODIES ARE BEST"

Playing the songs of Erin and ou1
own United States, the Kenosha SYM
phony Orchestra scored patriotic and
artistic triumph on Sunday afternoon
when it appeared in concert at the
mess-hall of Camp Herring. The re-
cital proved a deluxe celebration of
st. Patrick IS Day and at the same
time persuaded the Sammies that Ke-
nosha has a musical aggregation capa-.
bic of presenting popular and classical
selections with equal inspiration.
Especially pleasing to the soldiers
were the medleys of patriotic airs and
the spirited renditions of "Come Back
to Erin" and "The Wearing of the
Green" A wealth of applause com
PEELED second encores and attested
the popularity of the "made in Ke-
nosha" orchestra.
The heavier numbers on the program
proved the artistry of the Kenosha
Symphony Orchestra. Stirring over
lures were presented with martial fer
vor and feeling while more tender
symphonies were interpreted with rare
delicacy and coloring. Chmaxes were
well-taken in every selection and mark
ed the aggregation as an orchestra
which has long since passed the stage
of experiment and has already achiev-
ed the coveted plane of mastry.
In addition to the large audience of
soldiers number of civilians were
privileged to attend the concert. All
of them had the most fattering com
ment on the recital and prophesied
complete triumph for the orchestra in
its concert of Friday evening.
In behalf of the soldiers at Camp
Herring, Lieut.. Happersburger eonclud-
ed the festivities of the afternoon with
a little speech expressing his gratitude
for the excellent music afforded his
proteges through the kindness of the
orchestra.

At one of the largest attended and

of the Catholic Woman s Club of Ken
osha on Saturday afternoon at the
Knights of Columbus Hall, it was I'M
animously voted that the organiza-
ton should support a French War Or
phan in addition to the large amount
of patriotic work which the members
of the organization are already doing.
The support of the war orphan is to
be carried out through "The Fatherless
Children of France Society,"" which
has a branch chapter in Kenosha. The
additional funds needed to carry out
this project are to be secured by a
card party which is to be given by the
women in the very near future.
The Knights of Columbus Hall was
very attractively decorated for the
occasion in Irish flags and green carna-
tions in honor of ST. Patrick s Day.
The fitting honors to the Irish saint
were appropriately carsieC out in the
musical program of the afternoon
which included the beautiful rendi-

"Believe me if all Those Enlearing

ist, all of which were very well re-

A SELFISH, NARROW MINDED
AND UNPATRIOTIC PROTEST

Whitman is the leading agricul-
tural county of the state. Its farm
population can roughly be divided
into three classes. There is small
per cent of very wealthy farmers who
own large holdings of land and raise
grain on large scale. There is a
much larger per cent who own farms
OF half section or less, and there is
large per cent of renters who own
no land, but have enough horses and
farm machinery to work rented land.
The big grain farmers possess suf-
tlclent land to enable them to allow
half of it to lie idle in summer fall
low every year or two. They can af-
ford it. Their success has given
them such confidence in their abi1-
lty to produce maximum yield of
gain at minimum cost that many
OF them do not feel the need of any
advice and scott at the idea that
county agriculturist could make any
helpful suggestions as to the running
OF their ranches These men are
heavy taxpayers and have much in
fluence, but they are comparatively
few in number.
How about the small farmers and
the renters who can not afford TO let
any of their land lie idle in summer
fallow, If it can be used to produce
a profitable crop, and who desire to
diversity their farming and raise
something besides grain? These men
need the advice of a trained and
qualified man, who understands both
the scientific and practical side of
agriculture. The less successful they
nave been, the more they need COM
petent advice, not only as to what
their land is best fitted to produce
and the best methods of tillage. but

If the French soldiers are willing

the people of the United States
