This was the first distinctly Ameri-
can operation of a major character
launched on the Western front.

J Washington, Sept. 13.-Americar
troosp operating III the ST. Milne
sector made considerable gains yes
terday, Gen. Pershing reported in
his communique late last night. AL.
ready 5000 prisoners have beer
counted, and the movement still is
in progress.
The text of the communique fol-
lows:
Headquarters American Expedl-
tionary Forces, Sept. IL, 1918.
Section A:-This morning our
troops, operating in the St. Mihiel
sector, made considerable gains. AS
sisted by French units they broke
the enemy's resistance and advanc-
ed at some points to depth of five
miles. We have counted 5000 pris-
oners up to the present. The oper-
alton is still in progress.
The American first army under
command of Gen. Pershlng is in ac-
tion against the Germans on a 20
mile front on the famous St. Mihiel
salient in Lorraine, which had stood
sharp wedge in the French line
southeast of Verdun since the COM
mencement of the war.
In the preliminary thrust ground
was gained on both sides of the tri-
angle and also at it's apex at St. Mi
hiel, and at last accounts the Amer
leans, with whom some French
troops are brigaded, were fast
sweeping across the salient in an ef-
fort toclose themouth of the big
pocket before the Germans can ex-
tricate themselves from the perilous
position thy are in as result of the
suddenness of the blow and the ele-
ment of surprise it carried with it,
Although the advance of the AM
ericans was swift and sure and gains
in excess of four miles on the south
ern side of the battle area were
made, the cavalry far outstripped
tanks and footmen and was last re-
ported operating along the railroad
near Vigneulles almost in the CEN
tre of the salient and some ten miles
northeast of st. Mihiel and also
northwest of -Mousson, thro'
the forests and along the railways
line running northward to Metz, the
great German fortress, the southern
outer Notifications of which are less
than ten miles distant.
From the war maps it would seem
almost impossible for the Germans
% evacuate the salient as they ap-
)arently are trying to do, without

rhe first reports show that the AM
orleans took 700 prisoners in the
irst stages of the battle and suffer-
I'd remarkably small casualties.
The strategy of Marshal Foch in
he present maneuver cannot be
'oreseen except that it has as the
irst objective the leveling of the st.

Some regiments have already re-

There are several theories as to the
origin Of the wedding ring. Here is
and coinage the gold money in Egypt
was made in the form of a ring, usu-
ally worn on the finger as convenient
method Of carrying and safe keeping.
The men and women, therefore, had all
their gold or wealth made into rings,
and for the majority of people these
rings were no larger than the plain
gold bands of today. Thus, when the
groom placed the ring on the brides
finger he meant exactly what the mod

tually endow his bride with all his
