are on duty night and day all over the
camp and treatment may be had at

Army officers appreciate the fact
that many ills of the body are due to
bad teeth and from the time a man
enters the army until he is discharged
his teeth are looked after When he
first enters; camp and goes to the mus

the new recruit finds his mouth is the
first thing looked at. II he needs

tai surgeon who examines the teeth

self called upon to report at one Of
the two big dental laboratories. From
hat time on his teeth are examined
ut frequent intervals.
Colonel C. r. Wolven, who is in
charge Of the dental corps, recently
compiled q record of treatments here.
He found that in eleven months 29,-
627 teeth had been, treated. 46,6S4
teeth had been extracted and 25,55l

War Summary
(By The Associated Pressy,

IL tFhkF \ ~ AL ~
There is every reason to believe
that the great Offensive OF the Allied
armies in France has reached q ell
max and that the next few days may
witness events which will mark an
epoch In the history OF the On
a front extending from Roulers on
the north to Verdun far down toward
the other end of the battle line the
Germans are being battered by sue
cessive BLOWS and In some of these
sectors they seem to be in a serious
position. \
British and American forces struck
az blov south OF. Cambrai yesterday
that seems tQrhave shattered what RI
manned of the great enemy defensive
system in that region. Over a twenty
mile front the Allies stormed ahead
and at nightfall appeared to be out
in the open country and moving to-
which is the only ven Of escape
for the Germans still in Cambria. It
now seems hat the enemy must re-
treat hurriedly from the Cambrai re-
gion and that their retirement will
involve the front far to the north
ward.
Further south the French have
won valuable ground and have moved
ahead SO that their front is virtually
in line with that of the British and
Americans.
This advance taken in connection
with the progress Of General Berthe
Rheims appears to place the Laon sa-
lient within the Jaws of a pair Of
pincers which are slowly closing.
Berthelot has not only put Laon in
a pocket but his advance along the
Aisne is most menacing to the Ger
mans further east.
General Gouraud's armies are fore
ing the enemy to retire slowly from
the temporary lines he has held north
of the Arnes river. Heavy machine
gun fire has retarded the Allied ad-
vance but attempts by the enemy to
organize a counter attack failed COM
pletely when it was caught by the
Allied heavy guns.
Americans in company with the
French have struck the German lines
east OF the Meuse river north OF YER
dun and have carried the villages Of
Charny, Brabant, Haumont, Consen-
voye and Beaumont, lying just to
the east Of the river. This attack
was carried out with such force that
the detectives assigned for the troops
were soon reached. At last reports
the Germans were being driven slow
ly back desperately fighting.
West of the Mouse there has been
some sharp fighting, but no signifi-
cant advance have been made during
the past day. The American prog
ress along The eastern edge of the Ar
gonne forest has forced the Germans
into a narrow strip of the forest,
from which, it seems his egress is
pretty we'll barred.
Dispatches from Berne state that
the Turkish cabinet has resigned and
there is great excitement in Constan-
tinople. This may b. an indication
of the early withdrawal Of Turkey
from the war. Allied forces operat-
ing in the region of Damascus have

AT THf MOMENT OF DEATH.

When We come to die, all the world
falls away from us-we have to face
the darkness alone. Our friends are
of no use to us; even our relatives
stand by helpless while we draw near
to the last BREATH and the stream of
life flows on, as if it had no further
concern for us, now that we are de-
parting from this current. In at our
windows comes the noise of the
streets, the rattle of vehicles, the cry
of children; and we lie quite still and
crushed, seeing how little We are
missed.
Oh, if in that hour of gloom, when
the shadows are deepening about
our weary eyes, we have the company
of the angels come to show us the way
to their celestial home, and the society
of happy souls whose salvation we
have helped to procure, we shall not
be utterly lonesome, as the earth fades
away from our vision and we stand,
trembling and awestruck, in the pres
ence of the Deity.
1t is now for us to make friends
with those who may befriend us when
human sympathy can no longer be
noticed by dulled ear and deadening
brain, and who, even at the judgment,
may give us proofs of love and rea-
sons of mercy.

lOng-taught man; a much tried and

of self-control, self-mastery, and self
sacrifice. The result is an unselfsh
man, master of himself, of his higher
and lower nature.
He is we'll taught. His is the most

SPIRITUAL BOUQUETS.

"Give flowers to the living but
prayers and Masses to the dead"
'One rose in a sick mans chamber is
worth hundred laid upon his coffin"
More and more Catholics, we are glad
to say, are beginning to realize the
folly of covering the poor lifeless re-
mains of their dear ones with eXpen-
siVe floral offerings. These are being
replaced by Spiritual Bouquets-pray-
ers, Communions, Masses-and how
grateful the Poor Souls in Purgatory
must be for these beautiful and
fragrant blossoms! The poor mission
aries, too, are benefited by the Mass
stipends, especially in these war times
when it means such a struggle to keep
the various mission works going.
Therefore, we beg our promoters,
especially, and all our other good
friends, to use their influence, when
they hear of collections being taken
up for flowers for the dead, to have
this money converted into Mass sti-
ponds, thus affording the greatest pos
sible relief to the departed soul and
at the same time enabling the mis-
sionary, who receives the stipends, to
carry on our Lords work-the saving
of souls.

All depends upon the men in charge

GARDENERS PATRON SAINT.

The title, THE Gardener" which
is usually appended to the name of
st. Phocas, cannot but command at
tention at the present time A few
years ago, the gardener pursued his
course quite unnoticed and 'unsung"
by the thousands of busy city folks,
but times have changed and today
maximum of prestige surrounds
and hallows that name--no one can
laud the gardener too highly or too
effusively. 1t is, therefore, quite in
keeping with the spirit of the time
to consider a sainted gardener, a
man who may well be honored and
invoked as the patron of those who
till the soil.
st. Phocas was born in the latter
half Of the third century at Sinope,
a town of northern Asia Minor, on
the coast of the Black Sea. He cul-
tivated a large garden near the gate
of his native city, and from the plen-
tiful fruits of this garden, he sup
ported not only himself but also a
large number of his needy neighbors.
He delighted to till the soil and
watch the growth of the trees and
flowers and vegetables: the garden
was an open book to him, each plant
telling its own lesson of the great
ness and beauty of the Creator, His
mind and heart were thus continually
carried heavenward, and his labor,
however difiGult. was q labor Of
