Official reports gave no foundation on which the feeling of suppressed ex- citement could be based.
 "The latest dispatches" said Secre- tary Baker, show continued advances in several places by French, British and American troops. They are not extensive, but are important and show that the battle is continuing with great vigor."
 Earlier in the day a press dispatch told of rumors in London that the Brit ish west of Rheims had scored a de cided success and advanced toward Fishes, the German rail base midway between Soissons and Rheims. Later reports confirmed this to the extent of a stride forward by British and French forces on a three-mile front just west of Rheims, throwing the en- emy back a mile and a half. Prob ably it was this which started wild reports of a sweeping victory.
 Still later came news of decided gains by Franco-American troops around Fere- e-En-Tardenois and north of Dormans on the Marne. It was evident that the southern and south western angle of the German position were yielding to the pressure against them. News came also of impoTtnt advances along the Ourcq front.
 The outstanding fact tonight ap peared to be that the enemy's front was being forced back all along the sixiy-mile battle line Of the gains re corded, the Franco-British drive prob ably has the greatest possibilities fol it means that the eastern jaw of Gen eral Foch's gigantic trap is closing in

UNDATED WAR LEAD, BY TIE ASsncIATEn pRESS

UNDATED WAR LEAD, BY
 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. -
 General Foch has taken a leaf out
 of the book of German military
 strategy and orcained the use by
 the allied armies of the pincer sys-
 tenn of offensive in the Sossons,
 Rheims salient.
 Both jaws of the pincer arc
 moving smoothly, with the pivot
 along the Marne working in uni
 son, and the process of attempt
 inf to capture many of the nearly
 half million Germans in the big
 pocket is well on the way to what
 at present seems like a success
 ful operation.
 The Germans, however. evidently do not intend to permit themselves to be entrapped without fighting. Having thrown thousands of endorsements into the already coRgested salient, they have started a counter attack of great violence all along the semi-cir- cular front from the Ourcq river to the region immediately southwest of Rheims and their men are said to have orders to stem the allied tide of advance at all costs.
 Nevertheless, at last accounts the Americans, French, British and Italian troops, themselves well reinforced to meet the new turn in affairs, were steadily pressing forward at nearly all points on the battle line to Rheims while east of the Cathedral city a Po- fish contingent, the first of the Poles to enter the combat, is declared to have carried out successfully an en- terprise against the enemy in which more than 200 Germans were made prisoner
 The western jaw of the pincer con tinues to move eastward on both sides of the Ourcq river, and the Franco American troops are virtually knock ing at the gates of Fere-En- Tardenois, the important railway junction and storehouse for Germany's war SUD- plies. Further south to the Marne new advances, in keeping with those in the north, have been attained.
 At the pivot of the pincer, north Of the Marne midway between Chateau Thierry and Rheims. the French have extended their line northward in the forest of Fere, in the Ris Foerst and north of Dormans, while the eastern jaw of the pincer, under the pressure of the British has noticeably moved forward in a northwesterly direction for about a mile and a half over a three mile front to Mery-Premecy and Gueux, the last named village five miles west of Rheims and a scant mile and a half from the Rheims-Fismes road. At Mery-Premecy the allied line now stands about ten and half miles southeast of Fishes, which is the cen tral station on the railway running be- tween Soissons and Rheims.
 For a week and a day the allied troops have hammered against the Soissons-Rheims salient until its width across between the cities has been narrowed to about twenty-one miles from an original width of thirty-seven miles, while the triangular salient has been welded into a semi-circular cul de sac. Over the entire pocket the al- lied artillery continues to rain shells from all sides and airmen are keeping up their intensive bombing of troop formations and military works.
 As yet, notwithstanding the inroads of the allied troops, there has been no sign of an impending general re-

LONDON (via Ottawa). July 25- The strike had it's origin in the def. ciency of skilled labor, This deficiency necessitated the government making plans for an even distribution of labor but some firms. by offering attractive wages, managed to secure an unfair proportion of skilled workers. The government therefore laid an embargo on three Coventry firms, which were told an excess of skilled hands could not be permitted.
 It is said the men misunderstood the purpOrt of the embargo which was wrongly interpreted as an attempt to oust skilled workers and drive them into the army by means of low wages. Aside from this the men contend the embargo is a restriction of their right to dispose Of their labor on the best terms obtainable.

formed by Fluid Which Battles
Brain and Spinal Cord.

Until very recently the exact role

the brain and spinal cord-was not
understood. But nowadays it is
common practice among surgeons to
squirt drugs into the tissues contain
ing this fluid or to draw out drop or
two of it for examination.
The Journal of the American Medi-
Cal Association, commenting on an adj

fore the Royal Society Of Medicine.
says he describes the cerebro-spinal
fluid as an ideal physiologic solution
in which the exquisitely sensitive nerv-
GUS system is always bathed.
This fluid does not, like the lymph,
arise from the blood by emulation Of
serum through the walls of the capil-
laries, but is the product of the Sc
creting cells of what are called the
choroid plexuses in the ventricles of
the brain. The pressure under which
the fluid always exists is due to the
secretory pressure of these cells and
not to the blood. And there are
scarcely any proteins found in it.
Halliburton says that in order to keep
out the harmful proteins, which would
poison the nerves, the harmless ones
also are almost completely excluded.

in which the fluid is found seem to
