summoned everything possible was
done for her and along late in the
day she recovered her knowledge of
things to some extent. She broke one
of the bones in one arm, was cut
about the head and severely bruised,
and the doctor thinks that there is
no other injuries. She is resting some
easier today and there seems nothing
to interfere with her recovery when
the break and bruises have gotten
well. 1t was a very close call and
her many friends %sympathize with her
in her suffering.

REVIEW OF WAR
TRIBUTE TO MEN

Continued from Page Eighteen).
Fourth corps, closing the salient
and forming a new line west OF
Thiaucourt to Vigneulles, and be-
yund Fresnes- en-Woevre.
AT the cost of only 1000 casual
ties, mostly light, we had taken
Is 900 prisoners and 443 guns, a
great quantity of material, released
the Inhabitants of many villages
from enemy domination and estab-
lished our lines in a position to
threaten Metz.
This signal success OF the
American First army in it's first Of
fensive was of prime importance.
The allies found they had q formi-
dable army to aid them, and the
enemy learned finally that he had
one to reckon with"
The report shows for the first
time officially, that with this brill
liantly executed coup, General Per-
shing's men had cleared the way
for the great effort of the allies
and American forces to win a con-
elusive victory. The American
army moved at once toward its
browning achievement, the battle Of
the Mouse.
The general tells a dramatic
story of this mighty battle in three
distinct phrases. beginning on the
night of Sept. 81, when Americans
quickly took the places of the
French on the thinly held line of
this long qniet sector. The attack
opened on Sept. &c andsthe Ameri-
cans drove through entanglements,
across No Mans land to take all
the enemy's first line positions.
Closing the chapter, General Per-
shing says;
"On Nov. 6 division of the First
corps reached point on the
Mouse opposite Sedan, Is miles
from our line of departure. The
strategical goal which was our
highest hope was gained We had
cut the enemy's main line OF COM
munications, and nothing but sur
render or an armistice could save
his army from complete disaster.
IN all 40 enemy divisions had
been used against us in the Meuse
Argonne battle. Between Sept. 26
and Nov. 6 we took 26,G59 prism
ers and 46S guns on this front.
Our divisions engaged were the
First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth.
Twenty-sixth, Twenty eighth. Twen-
ty-ninth, Thirty-second. Thirty
third, Thirty-fifth. Thirty-seventh.
Forty-second, Seventy-seventh, Sew
enty-eighth, Seventy-ninth. Eigh-
tieth, Eighty-second, Eighty-ninth,
Ninetieth and Ninety-f1rst. Many
of our divisions remained in line
for a length of time that required
nerves of steel, while others were
sent in again after only few days
OF rest The First, Fifth. Twenty
sixth, Forty-second. Seventy-sev-
enth, Eightieth, Eighty-ninth and
Ninetieth were in the line twice.
Although some of the divisions
were fighting their first battle, they
soon became equal to the best"
The commandments does not
lose sight of the divisions operat
ing with French or British armies
during this time. He tells of the
work of the Second corps, compris-
ing the Twenty-seventh and Thir-
tieth divisions in the British as

Join the French army in Belgium.
OF the total strength of the ex-
peditionary force, General Pershing
| reports:
There are in Europe altogether
including a regiment and some san
itary units with the Italian army
and the organizations at Murmansk,
also including these enroute from
the states, approximately 2,053,347
men, less our losses. OF this total
there are in France 1,S3S.169 COM
blatant troops. Forty divisions, have
arrived, of which the infantry per-
sonnet of 10 have been used as re-
placements, leaving 30 divisions
now in France organized into three
| armies of three corps each"
OF their equipment he says:
"Our entry into the war found
us with few of the auxiliaries nee
essary for its conduct in the mod
ern sense. Among our most I'M
portant deficiencies in material
were artillery, aviation and tanks.
In order to meet our requirements
as rapidly as possible. we accepted
the offer of the French government
to provide us with the necessary
artillery equipment of los, one 55
millimetre howitzers, and one So
G. P. F. guns from their own fac
tories for 80 divisions The wis
dom of this course is fully demon
strated by the fact that, although
we soon began the manufacture OF
these classes of guns at home, there
were no guns of the calibre men
| toned manufactured in America on
our front at the date the armistice
was signed. The only guns of these
| types produced at home thus far
received in France are 100 rs MILL
metre guns.
: 'In aviation we were in the same
situation and here again the French
government came to our aid untis
| our own aviation program should
| be under way. We obtained from
| the French the necessary planes for
| training our personnel, and they
have provided us with a total of
2,676 pursuit, observation and
bombing planes. The first air
planes received from home arrived
| in May, and altogether we hav9
received 1879. The first American
squadron completely equipped by
| American production, including
airplanes, crossed the German lines
| on Aug. z, 1918. AS to tanks, we
| were also compelled to rely upon
the FrenchN Here, however, we
were less fortunate, for the reason
that the French production could
barely meet the requirements OF
their own armies.
at should be fully realized that
the French government has always
taken a most liberal attitude and
has been most anxious to give us
every possible assistance in meet
| ing our deficiencies in these as well
as in other respects. Our depend
ence upon France for artillery, avi-
alton and tanks was, of course, due
to the fact that our industries had
not been exclusively devoted to
military production. All credit is
| due our own manufacturers for
| their efforts to meet our require
ments, as at the time the armistice
| was signed we were able to look
forward to the early supply of prac-
tically all our necessities from our
own factories"

The summons of the Austro- Hun

(Teutonic) peoples have again and
again announced The reception which
previous similar steps met with from
our enemies was not encouraging.
The Imperial government, however
follows the new attempt to bring the
world nearer to the just and lasting
peace which it desires with the sin.
