CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY

CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY
 PARIS, Aug. 2.-The Allies celeb rated the fourth anniversary of the war by a vigorous resumption of the offensive. Late yesterday the French and British attacked lnt western s,de of the Marne salient along five mile front and penetrated to a maximum depth of three miles.
 The Allies captured the entire ridge which forms the watershed be- tween the Ourcy and Aisne.
 This advance by the Allies along the western side of the salient is con- sidered extremely important and pos sibly is the most important thing the Allies have accomplished since the Germans retired from the Marne........ The new positions command biz area to the north.
