Wh-r-r-ooml" That one was close
behind. The fragments of the shell are
rafting on the truck.
Now shells are falling, further back
along the road. And the driver feels
the summit as his wheels begin to pick
up speed.
Straight down a village street in
which the buildings are only skeletons
of buildings. He wheels into the court
yard of great sfell-tora chateau
well, you made it again see!" says
q smiling face under tin hat-a face
that used to look out over a congrega-
ton in Rochester.
"Yepl'' says the driver glancing at
his watch. And we came up Dead
Mans Curve in less than three minutes
Including one stallI''
Later that night two American boys,
fresh from the trenches bordering that
shattered town, stumble up the stairs
Of the chateau, into a sa1dbagged room
where the Rochester minister has his
Canteen.
Get any supplies tonight" they ask.
"You betI didl'' is the answer, what
will you have?"
whats those? Canned peaches7
Gimme some. Package of American
cigarettes lets see-an' a cake of

You hear that up and down the front,
a dozen times night What would
we do without them?"
Men and women In these organiza-
TORS are risking their lives tonight 10
carry up supplies to the soldiers. Trucks
and canionettes are creeping up as close
as any transportation is permitted.
From there these people are carrying
up to the gun-nests, through woods,
across open fields, into the trenches.
The boys are being served wherever
they go. Things to eat, things to read,
things to smoke, are being carried up
everywhere along the line.
With new troops pouring into France,
new supplies must be sent, more men
and women by the hundreds must be
enlisted. They are ready to give every
thing. Win von give your dollars to
help them l--.2 cur men?

When the Engine Stalls on
Dead Mans Curve!

K%dEY climb aboard their loaded
truck at shutdown, fifteen miles
behind the lines. They rumble
through the winding streets, out on the
white road that leads to Germany!
The man at the wheel used to be
broker in Philadelphia. Beside him sits
an accountant from Chicago. A news
paper man from the Pacific Coast is
! the third. Now they all wear the uni
form of one of these organizations.
The road sweeps round village and
on a tree is nailed sign: Attention.
L'Ennemi Vous Voitl The Enemy
Sees You'll"
They glance far up ahead and there,
suspended in the evening light, they see
q Hun balloon.
"Say, we can see him plain tonight"
murnlurs the accountant from Chicago.
And don't forget" replies the Phila-
delphia broker, that he can see US just
as plain"
The packing cases creak and groan,
the truck plods or-straight toward that
hanging menace.
They reach another vilIage--where
heaps of stone stand under crunpled
walls.
Then up they go, through the strange
silence broken only when a great pro-
jectile inscribes its arc of sound far
overhead.
They reach turn. They take it.
They face heavy incline. For half
a mile it stretches and they know the
Germans have the range of every inch
oft. The mountain over there is where
the big Boches' guns are fred. This
incline is their target.
The three men on the truck bring up
their gas masks to the alert, settle their
steel helmets closer on their heads.
AT first the canton holds its speed.
Then it slackens off. The driver grabs
his gear-shift, kicks out his clutch. The
engine heaves- heaves- and stalls!
"QuickI Spin i'll" calls the driver.
The California journalist has jumped.
Ee tugs at the big crank.
-room!"
The shell breaks fifty yards behind.
Another digs hole beside the road
Just on ahead.
And then the engine comes to life.
1t crunches, groans and answers.
Slowly, with n1addening lack of haste,
it rumbles on.

Amsterdam, Oct. Recommending on

new German imperial chancellor. the
TaSeblatt Of Berlin says:
"An Germany. or at any rate that
great honest and good Germany which
Is imperishable, feels that Prince Max
lm;lian in accordance WITH his duty as
a man and as a servant of his people.
has done what is right and necessary.
Why haven't we learned earlier to
know ourselves ?"
The Lokal AnZeiger of Berlin says
that two OF President wilson's points
must be considered rejected. the
separation of Alsace- Lorraine from
Germany and the incorporation in in
dependes. Poland Of Prussian Poland.
A Threat From Berlin.
A sample Of pam German comment
may be found in the Lokal Anzeiger
defiantly announcing that the German
people viii fight to the last drop Of
blood those whose aim is to dictate a
humiliating peace.
"Unbroken stands our front on
enemy land" the newspaper continues
I'VE shall be able to defend ourselves
more easily against an entente attack
thru Bulgaria than against Russia,

three years. Many flouNshing

hundreds Of thousands Of lives must

maximum of our concessions does not
suffice them
civinn Advice 10 Wilson,
The newspaper somewhat peremptor-
lily admonishes President Wilson to
realize the "superhuman responsibility
placed upon his, shoulders" and in
mniesterial tones hopes ''he wilNprove
himself worthy of this terribly respon-
sible hour"
The Vienna vierchspost writes:
"President Wilson Is now given op-
portunity to prove his fitness to be a
world arbitrator. Restoration of peace
depends on his sincerity to do justice
and establish a new order that excludes
oppression and establishes real and
lasting peace. The fate Of humanity Is
placed in his hands May the presi-
dent, conscious Of this responsibility.
show himself worthy with the historic
past that may cover his name with un-
perishablc glory"
Dsrnburg Has His Say.

is slated for a stand to the end against

Yanks Make Farther Advance After
\ Capturing ChateI ,chehery.
[By the Associated Press.1
With the American Army Northwest
of Verdun. Oct. s.-The American
troops continued their advance north
of the Argonne until late Monday night
After the capture of Chatel Chehery
they gained further ground.
The advance was aided somewhat by
the use of smoke bombs and heavy
fog. A platoon of minenwerfers was
captured. During the night patrolling
was active. There was intermittent
artillery fire during the night on ac-
count of movements behind the enemy s
line.
Word was received late last night
of the rescue of an American bat
talon which had been surrounded by
Germans in the Argonne forest region
It is presumed the battalion was re-
leved by other American troops.
Several efforts were made yesterday
to obtain reports from the lost bat
talon by carrier pigeons. A basket
containing a number OF pigeons was
lowered by parachute near where the
Americans were believed to be. But no
bird had returned up to a. late hour
yesterday.
"The lost battalion" pushed ahead
with other troops when the first Amer
lean attack to the west Of Verdun be-
gan. They were surrounded in all
probability because the men were not
used to forest warfare. Advancing in
two widely separated columns the en-
emy reached the rear of the battalion
AS soon as the battalion was missed
other troops tried to find them.
Man yairplanes flew over the section
Of the forest where the Americans were
believed to be and messages were
dropped for them. AS it was thought
their supplies might be exhausted
cunningly devised parachutes then
were released above the forest.
