said that tho Germans were working
vigorously at various points along the

outs and improving positions generally
as fast as possible for probable winter

American Front Quiet.
Almost complete quiet reisned over the
American front northwest OF Verdun to-
day. Not single infantry action OF
any Importance took place and there was
minimum even of patrolling on both
sides. The artillery. which from the Ger
man side was mildly active on the Amer
lean right during the night. ceased be-
fore daylight and was heard only inter-
mittenty in the later hours
Despite sunsfnine Throughout the day
the Visibility was SO poor that the ayia-
tors could accomplish little. The Amer
ioen Tiers encountered few OF the enemy.
The advance on the extreme American
left into Bourgogne Wood yesterday
and the taking OF the hamlet OF Furnay
were OF Importance because they mark
an extension of the American lines up
the narrow valley. bringing the north
easterly curving line into the woods
This puts the Americans almost behind
the troublesome and costly Belle Joyeuse
Farm, which has been bitterly contested,
having been won and lost several times
In the last few days.

region of Briquenay. north OF Grand Pre-,
were bombed this afternoon by about
sixty all American bombing airplanes,
with about eighty pursuit planes pro-
tecting them Formations OF from ff-
teen to twenty German machines at
tempted to drive of the Americans and
several aerial combats resulted.
Lieut. Edward Rickenbacher was
among the pursuit planes accompanying
the bombing squadron. He engaged in
two aerial combats and brought down n
German machine within the American
lines near Exermont. Rickenbacher fol-
lowed the enemy machine close to the
ground until he saw the enemy aviator
land and fall into the hands OF American
infantrymen. Returning to his atrdrcme,
Rickenbacher heard the news OF nis PRO-
motion to a Captaincy.
The weather was fairly clear when
word came that German troops were ar
irving at Briquenay by trains. and that
they were marching and being trans
ported toward the Bourgos ne Wood. An
expedition was quickly organized, and
was soon on the wing.
In addition to bombing Briquenay and
the railroad. the bombers dropped a few
bombs in woods near by, and the pur-
suit planes attacked enemy troops with
small bombs and machine guns. The
bombers report excellent results, direct
hits being obtained upon railroad sheds.

missing. Over Grand Pre- the left wing

DENAIN GIVES THANKS
FOR ITS DELIVERANCE
Prince of Wales and Gen. Cur
rie ReceiUed With Honors.
By the Associated Press.

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE
AND BELGIUM, Oct. 27.-The historic
old town of Denain to-day paid it's
recent deliverance from n bondage Of
four years by the German invaders.
All the remaining residents of this
war Scared place, headed by the local
dignitaries, formally received and rem
dered a touching tribute Of thanks this
morning to the Prince of Wales, repre-
senting the British Government: Gen.
Currie. commander OF the Canadian
Army Corps, and the commander of the
Fourth Canadian Division OF Quebec
which freed Domain from the enemy.
The reception of the royal representa-
tive was attended by elaborate cere-
monies.
Even as these proceeded there came
constant detonations OF exploding shells
from great German guns to the east,
but these marks of hate failed to
dampen the spirit OF Joy and thanks
giving. for they came from an all but
vanquished enemy and Denain was free.
The Prince of Wales. Gen. Currie and
the divisional commander entered the
town with a guard of honor composed
OF Canadian troops, French veterans OF
the War of 1870, their TUNES covered
with the medals OF that conflict. and
a delegation OF local beauties dressed
in Alsatian costumes and carrying huge
bouquets. They proceeded to the CEN
trail square of the town, where promi-
nent civilians and officials were awaiting
to receive them.
While the guard stood at salute the
commander of the Fourth Division was
presented with a flag for his gallant
troops. who a few days ago had forced
the enemy from that very square at the
point OF the bayonet The girls gave
their flowers to the Prince, Gen. Currie.
the divisional commander and the
other Generals.
This ceremony having been completed.
the procession reformed to proceed TO
the church for the celebration of high
mass. At this time at its head marched
all the priests in their robes of Office.
Near the altar was a gaping wound
10 the wall where a great shell from a
German gun once had exploded. The
Prince of Wales took his place just I'M
der this ragged hole.
Aside from the religious rites, an ad-
dress of thanks was delivered by the
parish priest Then going to the Cana
dian representatives he thanked them
and referred TO them as relatives by
blood and association In concluding he
said that he could see the hand of God
working behind the just punishment
which certainly would be melted out to
the Germans. This punishment had lons
| been delayed. but II would be all the
harder for that very fact he said.
The congregation then fled out OF the
church and the, Prince of Wales took
up a station nearby to allow the troops
to pass in review. His post was beside
the statue OF Gen. Villars, who as com.
mander under Louis XIV. freed Denain
from the Austrians long years ago.

Once More in Life

"Tanlac is sure one fine little med
icine," says Leo II. LentZ, a popular
cigar salesman, well known in this
city and who lives at 10S Locust

Let me tell you l was in mighty
bad shape and it fixed me up good

Head ached all the time; was
nervous as cat; my appetite was
gone; my circulation was on the
ilitZ' and l felt like a sick pup all
over No pep, no ambition, no SELL
ing power. And there's no money
in feeling like that.
So l began hunting round for
some sort of a bracer and l heard
about Tanlac. Me for it,, I said,
and I started in on it, Well. sir,
maybe that little old medicine didn't
get right busy redding up my whole
system. 1t swept out every depart
ment and set the whole works to
running like clockwork.
Il feel fine, extra fine, superfine.
1 haven't felt so good in 1 don't
know when; no aches, no pains, no
nerves. I'm chuck full of pep and
all thanks to Tanlac.''
