Tony Carlson and John Klein
are both called for the 25th and
will help the good work along.
Here is wishing you the best of
luck boys.
Several Kerrickites. drove to
Sandstone to hear Corporal Bri-
ant talk. He had spent Is
months fighting the Huns and
he was worth hearing. Some of
the things he told about the
Germans makes the blood run
cold.
The election passed off quietly
and evidently pleased some and
disappointed others. We hope
the best men won. For COVER
nor and for senator we know the
best men won and are thankful.
1t shows that the majority of
the people are for America any,
how.
G. L. Bissonnette left Friday
night and from now until the
Kaiser is in a hotter place than
this. he will work for Uncle Sam.
At present he is in the Univer-
sity taking special training. We
were sorry to see George 60 but
glad to have him 60 for the
cause.
The Free Ladies' Aid met at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. G. E.
Carroll Thursday. the Goth, and a
very nice crowd attended. An
enjoyable lunch was served in
the usual hospitable way of the
CAROLS. $40 was obtained
which we understand. according
to the custom of the Free La
dies Aid, will be donated to the
Red Cross.
The ladies should take heed to
the calls for Red Cross workers.
This does not mean only men,
bers of the Red Cross but also
means those who are not men,
bers. A number of the ladies in
the country should ask for yarn
and knit. This Branch must
furnish "a pairs Of socks per
month besides a number Of
sewed articles and it should be
obligatory on the country wom-
en- to do this knitting. leaving
the sewing for the ladies' who
live close and can attend the
weekly meetings. There is no
excuse for any Of the ladies not
knitting if they know how, and
if they do not know how, others
will gladly instruct. We hope
many of the ladies will come in
or send in for yarn and knit vol
unfairly. otherwise it will be ne
cessary to make direct requests
to each lady to do her part. The
ladies living near the town with
the assistance of a few Of the
good women in the country are
doing it all and the work
should be divided SO all do their
part. This is not meant for the
ladies now working but we
trust those who are not, will
come into the fold.

 Bouresches. The activity of the Ger man artillery was not abnormal and consisted mainly Of harrassing fire on our front line Gas was, as usual, employed in the smelling of the Mar rette, the Belleau and other woods. The number of German airplanes in operation again decreased. In the Ger man rear areas the movemant Ob- served were mainly those of men in groups of small CT moderate sizes. Our own troops were active in patrol ling and in artillery fire. In the Marne sector from July 2 to the day passed almost without incident. The enemy s artillery fire was lighter than on the preceding day and only a few plane were seen. His trench mOrtars were active for a time during the evening. There was little activity on our side
 Our batteries exploded one of the enemy's dumps.
 "In the Woevere there were no mo- table events between July and July except the attempts of parties of the enemy to penetrate our lines, espe- cially in the region of Xivray. On the night of July 3 a German patrol was driven back by one of our patrols af- ter an exchange of fire.
 On the night of July one of OUT cutposts in this region was fired on by a German patrol but sustained no cas- ualties. On the night of July { 9 strong erman patrol attacked a weak outpost at Xivray with the intention of taking prisoners. Our outpost eX- changed hand grenades Ire with the assaulters. The Germans having failed in their purpose. withdrew from the outpost, which was then Teoccupied. On the same night there was an ex- change of grenade fire between an other of our outposts and a German patrol and at another point a patrol encounter. During all three days the enemy's artillery maintained a rate of | fire which is abnormal for quiet sec ! tor distributing his shells over our | front and rear areas and our lines of communication. Only a small amount of gas was used His airplanes and balloons did little work between July l 9 and 4, but were materially active between July and G. Our own forces
 were active mainly in artillery work ! The German lines were heavily shelleo
 with gas on the morning of July ,. In the Lorarine sector the outstand ! ing incidents of July 6 and were ! the activities of the enemy patrolling | parties and of cur own. During the
 night three German patrols approach ' ing our lines, two coming under oul | fire. One of them used light machine
 guns but was thrown back by our rifle
 and grenade fire after fight lasting ' twenty minutes.

 Regarding enemy banks. said the secretary the government proposed 10 apply to the courts for a winding up order, so that they could be put into liquidation, their assets collected ant distributed and they themselves put to an end in the shortest possible time. This step would be of no value If they could be reopened after the war.

The government deemed that it was justified in intro dUcing legislation which would make it impossible for a period of years aft CT the war to open bank in this coun- try

 Major MitcheFs horse, shrouded in black. with boots reversed in the stir rups and bearing also his reversed sword, followed the gun carriage which bore the coffin draped with the Stars and Stripes.
