The task Of General Bethelot's army
during the battle which was virtually
concluded with the retreat of the
Crown Prince and his armies beyond
the Vesle was a most trying one.
Bethelot's orders were to hold onto

Germans had from fifteen to sixteen
divisions in line facing his few divi.

Der, comprised units which had made
a name for themselves on many bat
tlefelds. Among them, also, were a
couple of divisions of Italians, who vie
with their French comrades in cour-

Bethelots first duty was to stay the
German rush which started on July

Ardre valleys. seize Epernay and turn

Meanwhile Highland and Yorkshire
divisions had been brought up with
the object of taking part in the de-
fensive action but when it was found
that Mangin's offensive was progress

French and American troops, was
pushing up from the bottom Of the
German salient. General Berthelot
asked General - to send his divi-
sions into the line of attack on the

whence he could threaten the rear of
the retiring Germans by pushing
toward FiSmes.

one of the most complete jobs Of
looting the world ever saw. 1t ap-

looting vas given to the soldiers. who
were not only allowed to send their
loot to their families, but were pro-
vided with military transport for that
purpose.
Every store in every town was
stripped absolutely OF food not one

shelves of the stores were swept clean.

A brief, simple meal-cold ham,
boiled beef, mashed potatoes, cheese
and fruit-was served on the table,
whose only ornament was bowl of
flowers picked in a scissors garden.

occasional distant rumble of artillery
and the uniforms worn by all, includ-
ing the servants, of whom there was
one left handed native who has &C

campaigns.
Only twice was the war mentioned
once in reply to the query from an
American Major on the Geenrai's

CONFERENCE WILL
|; BE POSTPONED

The district conference Of the home
service workers OF the Red Cross
which was TO be held in the, division
headquarters at Minneapolis on Fri
day and Saturday Of this week, has
been indefinitely postponed on account
Of the epidemic of Spanish influenza
which is raging.
1t was thought best by the arrange
ments committee to avoid a public
gathering at a time when contagion
is SO easily spread.
]. b. Wineman, chairman Of the
local home service division, upon the
advice of the local committee, has in.
vited the conference to meet in Grand
Forks when the time is definitely set.
This district of the home service in
cludes the states Of North and South
Dakota, Montana and Minnesota, and
as Grand Forks is the most centrally
located point, it was deemed advisable
by the local committee to suggest that
the meeting be held in this city.
