With the French Armies in France,
June 3.-Fighting their way along the
River Marine, the Germans have reach
ed a point to the west of Chateau
Thierry. French troops hold the west
ern portion Of the city. On the east
ern side of the Champagne salient the
Germans have succeeded in crossing
the Rheims-D ormans road south of
Olizy-Violaine and Ville-en-Tardenois.
Taken all in all, the seventh day of
the new battle found the allied line
from scissors to Rheims, although it
had been bent back at various points,
not SO hard pressed as on previous
days and seemingly more capable of
resisting the enemy's onslaught.
The British in the regions OF Arras,

London, June 3.-Another raid on
Karlsruhe has been made by British
cir squadrons, according to the Off
cial statement on aerial operations.
Twenty German machines were de-
stroyed in air fighting and six were
driven down out of control. One other
hostile machine was shot down by
anti-aircraft fire.
With their left wing touching the
Marine and their right linking up with
the battle front at Noyon, the Ger
mans in their new offensive are ham
mering the allied line apparently with
the hope of crushing the Scissors sa-
lient and opening up the way to Paris
by way of the Marine and the Disc.
They are reported to be using well
on toward three-quarters of a million
men in this effort.
On the front between scissors and
Chateau Thierry the Germans occu-
pied Longpont, Corey, Faverolles and
Troesnes, but later were driven out
of these places by energetic French
counter attacks.
The main trend of the enemy ef-
fort is westward, and with this pur-
pose seemingly fully developed, Gen.
Foch is %disposing his forces to re-
sist it.
Just below Scissors the crown
princes troops were forced back on
TIE Crise river, which runs on a north
and south line through that town. In
the engagements on this front several
hundred prisoners were taken by tho
French, and in the scissors fighting
especially the Germans suffered ter

at points whence their Intervention

SEE Boards IN FASHION.

London newspapers are predicting
the full beard will come into fashion
both in Europe and America asa re-
suit Of the war. War has always in
fuenced the style in whiskers, even
in the times Of Alexander the Great,
who required his soldiers to shave of
their boards because a beard was
handle which an enemy could seize.
The Crimean war in the fifties
brought the full beard into fashion
again. In that campaign British SOL
diers spent months in the trenches,
where they had no chance to shave.
Their boards grew, and they wore
them when they returned to Eng
land. The English papers say that
many soldiers coming home from the
trenches are bearded and, unless
precedents fail, the full beard is go
ing to come into fashion again.
Should our American troops return
from the war with boards, we may
look for that fashion TO again become
prevalent in America as il did alter
the Civil war.-Capper's Weekly.

A greater amount Of pure silver 10
used each year in this country in
photography and photo-engravirg
than any other purpose except the
coinage Of the United State. ~
the methods in general use Only
about 10 per cent Of the silver con-
sumed in these industries is actually
utilized. The remainder Is simply
wasted in the solutions which are
thrown daily into the sinks to 50 cat
through the drain pipes.
Several schemes for conserving
this waste are now being considered.
One consists in saving the solutions
in jars and barrels to be refined or
evaporated to regain the silver. An
other method, which is really quite
practical, is to utilize the silver
wasted in the fixing bath for silver
plating.
The process is 50 simple that Il
can readily be carried on even by an
amateur. The liquid is strained or
filtered and placed in a hard rubber
box. An ordinary galvanic cell is at
tached by copper wires to a copper
plate in one end Of the receptacle.
The article to be plated should be
well cleaned and placed in the solu-
ton opposite the copper plate. The
silver will begin to deposit immedi-
ately. Fifteen or twenty minutes viii
suffice for a thorough plating. In
most photographing establishments
enough silver solution is thrown
away each day to plate a couple Of
dozen spoons or forks.

English Critics Say
New Dual-Valve Six

The new Pierce Arrow dual-valve
six has been pronounced by English
critics as ranking among one Of
the worlds best" This tribute,
which carries unusual weight be-
cause of the pride which the Eng
lish have in their high-grade motor
cars, appears in The Motor, Lon
don's automobile publication.
There is no doubt" says the arti-
Gle, that the new product must
rank among one of the worlds best
The Pierce Arrow, made at Buffalo,
has always been a good job turned
out by what one would call in Eng
land a conservative firm. 1t GER

any firm in reputation, and has re-
,4,heu tnat position by sheer merit
without extraneous causes, such as
quantity production or stunt propa
ganda. 1t is the touring car de
luxe of the highest reliability"
The English publication analyses
the new engine, whose double
valve system enables the engine to
give far greater fexibility, II per
cent more speed, 40 per cent more
power, the power plant being 80
per cent more efficient. With all
these advantages, the engine is II
per cent more economical in the
consumption of gasoline.
Increased cost of production has
necessitated an increase in price of
the new Pierce-Arrow passenger
car" said the local agents today. AT
present they are in special demand
as only a limited number is being
produced"

American Trucks to Be Just

Times as They Were

All that the gasoline engine has
done to help win this war may
never be known generally, accord
ing to Lon R. Smith, sales manager
of the Buda company of Harvey,
Ill. There will never be a more
brilliant page in history than that
written about the achievements of
the internal combustion engine on
the fields Of France.
Mr.. Smith states that the infor-
nation which is coming to them
about the part their own particu-
lar product played in the war is,
of course, only small degree of the
grand record made by the Ameri-
can transport, but he feels that it
does throw a light on the situation
in general.
while we feel justly proud of
the record of the Buda engine in
the transport service" says Mr..
Smith, "the facts we have obtained
about our own product only prove
the efficiency and reliability of
American made gasoline engines. 1t
was the American gasoline engine
which made possible such rapid ad-
vances by our forces when the call
came for those stupendous drives
which resulted in the signing of
the armistice.

Mr.. Dormedy was at his farm,
about IS miles from Duluth, when

fer small lake nearby, but found
that the flames already had cut him

the road and in the dense smoke ran
into rocks and stumps before he re-

punctured and the front axle so
much bent that the wheels toed in
badly.

Corroded Terminals.

Few motorists realize that there
is a reason for the often repeated ad-
vice in regard to keeping the termin-
ais of the battery bright and clean
beyond the general one that corro-
sion prevents efficient functioning Of
the system. Very often corrosion
SO eats through the metal that when
some extra heavy jounce comes
along the terminal snaps off and it
may be matter of some difficulty
to rig up an emergency connection.
The only safety lies in keeping the
terminals bright and clean and coat
ing them with vaseline or cup grease.

Testing Spark Plugs.

When there is reason to suspect
a spark plug of not firing properly it
may be tested by removing it from
the cylinder without disconnecting
the wire terminal and laying the
metal part of the plug on the engine.
By turning the motor over slowly
the electrical circuit will then be
completed by the commutator and if
the spark plug is in working condi-
ton a spark will jump between its
two points. If not the probability is
that the plug needs cleaning or is
short circuited and useless.
