With the American Army in France
The Germans again attempted a raid
against the American lines, but the
raiders were discovered and the artil.
lery, responding to rocket signals, laid
down heavy barrage almost In.
stantly.
The Germans path back to their
line was marked by red lines.
During the night a machine gun bull
let killed an American private.
Enemy planes flew over the entire
position repeatedly. One American
machine, in a dash over an enemy
trench, sprayed it with machine gun
bullets.
For several days the Germans have
been concentrating artillery Of vari-
Gus calibers opposite the American
positions. They now have twice the
number OF guns as when the Ameri-
cans first took the sector, and be-
tween 500 and 1000 shells are being
fired at the American positions, wher
at first there was hardly $50.
American artillerymen continue
their practice of sending the enemy at
least two or three shells for one. En-.
emy artillery haid particular attention
to towns and battery positions, firing
hundreds of shells on them. Three
soldiers wounded were the only cas-
ualties from the shell fire.

SOPHIA, TROUBLE MAKER

If one were to ask European to
name the one woman who has done the
greatest injury to the cause of the al

ten, ex-Queen Sophia of Greece; and
he would add that there is no other
woman in q position to continue ener-
getically the work Of impairing the
allied cause. Despite the expulsion Of
the Prussian princess from Greece,
with her husband, King Constantine,
and all her children, except Alexander
now king of the Hellenes, she is not by
any means regarded as at the end Of
her career.
AS trouble maker Sophla's name
