It is England's aim to see the task through. and the pros- poets of victory have never been brighter than they are now with the Huns being steadily forced back from a position which they thought was impregnable.

STARS AND STRIPES"
 SOLDIER PAPER OUT
New Army Paper Delayed Be- cause of Mechanical Difficulties

PARIS, April 4.-"The Stars and Stripes" the new official weekly of the American troops in France is now on sale regularly every Friday since it's first appearance on February 10, bear 'ng the date of Friday, February 8. The delay in appearing shows some thing of the difficulty of bringing out ? new paper in English and, as a mat. Ter of fact, the army organ found such great trouble in obtaining paper and discovering printer who could tackle its work in English that it's appear ance would have been still further de- 'ayed if the Continental Edition of the London Daily Mail had not stepped in and agreed to produce what is in a way a competitor of it's own American edi- tion of the Daily Mail. This latter however, has already reached the point where the scarcity of paper will compel it's publishers to limit it's circulation to about 15O,O00 copies.
 The Stars and Stripes is an eight. page paper, sold for fifty centimes or ten cents.
