GERMANS REPULSED
BY AMERICANS
Only 2 Of 800 Who Intended to Reach
Third-Line Position Reached
First Line.

Germans carried out raid last
against the Americans
northwest of Toul but fell far short
of their intentions, which were to
penetrate to third-line positions. The
attack was made by special battal-
ion Of shock troops who had rehearsed
the action for or weeks behind the
lines. AS soon as the German barrage
began the American batteries laid
down a counter barrage with the re-
suit that less than 200 of the enemy
succeeded in climbing out of their
trenches and advancing toward the
American line. The German officer
sent the men right through the bar
rage but only two succeeded in reach
ing the front line. Both of these were
taken prisoner, one Of them dying in
a short time from wounds. The Amer
leans poured deadly fire into the
raiders, then climbed out of the
trenches and engaged with grenades
and hand-to-hand fighting the Ger
mans who were able to cross No Mans
Land. The American infantry drove
the enemy back to his own lines and
dragged the German dead back to the
American trenches for Identification.
The German losses were heavy, the
dispatch from which this is taken
states, as No Mans Land was strewn
with dead and numbers of the enemy
were killed by artillery without being
able to leave the German trenches.

RELY UPON THE FARMERS.

Secretary McAdoo Relies Upon The
Farmers to do Their Utmost to Help
In the Great Liberty Loan Work.
Secretary Of the Treasury McAdoo
issued the other day the following
message to country school house meet
ings: g7:
1T is matter Of supreme national
Importance that the treasury Of the
United States shall be supplied at all
times with the amount of money need
eo 10 furnish the food, the clothing the
guns, the ammunition required by our
soldiers. To pay the allowances made
o! the government to the dependent
wives and children of these soldiers
and to pay the life insurance which
the government permits every soldier
20 BUY from it, the treasury must also
nave the necessary money to extend
credit to the valient Britons, Belgians,
French and Italians who are fighting
alongside American soldiers on the
bloody battlefields Of France, Bel
gum and Italy. If the American
people fail to lend their money to their
government for these noble purposes,
now can we gain victory in this
glorious cause? Everyone can help
by lending their money to the govern
ment. They do not make a gift of
their money; they merely lend it on
lmpregnable security and are paid in
terest on the loan at the same time.
1T makes no difference how small
the loan, it will be helpful Those who
can only buy thrift stamps should buy
thrift stamps. Those who can only
buy War Savings stamps, should buy
War Savings stamps. Those who can
buy Liberty bonds should buy Liberty
bonds. Always they should buy as
many stamps and as many bonds as
they can, instead Of as few. There is
no citizen in the land who cannot help
to some extent if he is patriotic
| enough to do so.
1.-The farmers are already perform
| ing patriotic service of the highest
value in raising the foodstuffs needed
by our own military forces and citi-
zens at home and by the soldiers and
civilian population of the great ma
tions associated with US, but they
have further duty to perform They
should invest all of their available
money in the obligations of their gov.
ernment. In doing so they will moi
only benefit themselves by saving this
money but will be helping to defene
their liberties, their rights and theil
farms against the threatened aggres
sions of the most powerful autocrati'

Number of Men to Camp in Ex-
cess of Monthly Average.

The draft call for 49,843 registrants
mentioned in Mondays Robesonian as
having been sent to Governors of
States increases to more than 200,-
600 the number of selectmen ordered
to camp since late in March. This is
far in excess of the monthly average
that would have been mobilized un-
der the original plan to call 100000
men this year over months
period.
Although every State and the Dis
trict of Columbia are called upon to
furnish men under General Crowder's
latest order, nearly half of the 49,S43
men will come from seven States. ILL
nois will supply by far the largest
number, it's quota being 8,047. Penn
sylvania is next with 3,776; New York
third, with 3,542; Michigan fourth,
with 1888; Missouri fifth, with 2,163;
Wisconsin sixth, with 2,135, and Ohio
seventh, with 1900. Nevada has the
lowest quota, 40.
The quotas Of other States follow:
North Carolina, 481; South Carolina
289; Virginia, 756; Tennessee, 442.

Winston-Salem, April 12-That only
257 banks in North Carolina, out Of
her total Of $40, are acting as AGENTS

only seven States from the bottom
among the States Of the Union. This
shows that not even half of the banks
In the State have responded tc this
call of service. Of the 81 900 hanks
in the country only 1928 have ac-
cepted appointments as authorized
agents for the sale of stamps, which
leaves over 10000 banks which have
not yet come into line.
That there are so many financial
institutions in the country that are
not allied with the savings campaign
is cause for regret at National head
quarters for War Savings at Wash
ington. "The Director" published by
the National War-Savings committee
says that our present problem is to
decrease this large number of banks
which are not serving, and until this
is done, the campaign will not be
getting full service from the immense
field occupied by the bankers. "It
seems unfortunate" says the Direc-
tor, "in view Of the repeated solici-
tations that have been sent to each of
the banks urging them to serve il this
patriotic capacity, that there should
still remain this large number which
have not yet come into line and need
to be further reminded that there is
definite work which it is their duty to
perform

appointments as we'll as those which

customers having savings accounts

it says, they not only fail to protec!

Minnesota leads the States in hav

Nature Cures, The Doctor Takes the
Fee

There is an old saying that "Na-
ture cures, the doctor takes the fee"
but as everyone knows you can help
Nature very much and thereby en-
able it to effect a cure in much less
time than is usually required. This is
particularly true Of colds. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy relieves the
lungs, iquifies the tough mucus and
aids in it's expectoration, allays the
cough and aids Nature in restoring
the system to healthy condition.

Report
Washington. Aug. .

Anthracite production reached a total
of 1,750.49O tons last week, and the fuel
administration announced that this out
put broke all previous records.
The fuel administration issued the
following statement:
The mine workers enthusiasm over
breaking coal production records has
reached the anthracite region. During
the week ending August there was the
greatest coal tonnage for any week this
year the production Of prepared sizes
amounting to 1.l63,22O tons and steam
sizes 5s7.27O tons.
This il banner week in the an
thracltc field and reflects great credit on
the patriotic endeavor of the anthracite
miners. II should serve to rcassure con-
sumers who fear n threatened shortage
of anthacite,
But the fuel administration wants /,
to he fully realized that this one week
will not suffice to save the situation. To
keep up with the demand for anthracite
next winter it will be necessary to keep
everlastingly at ii and this record must
be betteIe ed If patriotic striving can ac-
complish it."
