the spaces have been filled the thrift

Those who prefer may buy So

They "Go Over the Top"
The Americans worked like football
players, every nerve and every har.
dened muscle strainlng. The sergeant,
by reason of long practice, was able
10 ward off some thrusts with the
point or butt, but from many he had
to jump"
Even more vigor was shown by the
men as they occupied the trench line
and. with their officers, went over the
top in a charge. The operations began
by firing from the trench at the dunn
mics In the enemy trenches. Some OF
the men made perfect scores, while
only three of the whole class fell be-
low 50 in possible 100.
The men went furlously at the
charge, urged on by the most emphatic
language that British sergeant major
might be credited with having at his
command. He shouted to his men:
"Give 1t TO 'em--in the heart, In the
throat That's the way. If you don't
get them they'll get you! On your toes
all the time! Quick Quick Quick |"
The urging was unnecessary. The
men knew what to do and did 1t, and
they wele so well trained that orders
were anticipated.
The French and British officers were
enthusiastic, especially at the speed
and energy of the Americans. Some
of the graduates will be sent immedl-
ately to newly arrived units as instruc-
tors.

Washington.-War savings stamps,
popularity known as thrift stamps
are now on sale. These stamps have
been termed "little baby bonds" by
the treasury department, and the term
comes nearer explaining them than any
other, for they are virtually govern
ment bonds issued In small amounts.
Back of them is the entire resources of
the nation, and they steadily increase
ia value from the date of purchase to
the date Of maturity, January 1, 1923.
This obligation of the United States
government is issued In the form OF
stamps, in two denominations the 25-
cent stamp and the S. stamp.
