FORBID WOMEN To SAIL

An Atlantic Port Sept. 2s-A steamship arrived yesterday with 126 passengers and not single woman or child among them, by orders of the British Admiralty This was due, pas sengers said, to the increased activity of U-boats off the British coast and the sinking of the steamship Nissan bic on Sept. g with the loss of some passengers. John Thornton McKean, Assistant Traffic Director of the Washington Terminal, had to return to America without the bride he went to England to set. Mir. McKean said he left Washington on July 12 and married Miss Agnes Lappin in Mott insham, England, on Aug. 1s. He booked a cabin for himself and bride on the steamship and did not know of the Admiralty ruling until they arriv- ed at the port of embarkation. AS 1t was useless to appeal, Mir. MoKean had to send his wife back. to her par ents in Nottingham. So far as he could ascertain there is no Likelihood of the embargo against women and children crossing the Atlantic being raised for some time,

HOW 1T FEELS TO BE SKILLED
 AND BOMBED

Somewhere in France. Sept. 23.- Correspondence of the Associated Press .)-"What does 1t feel like to be shelled or bombed?" is 8 question which many people at home ask of American soldiers in their letters.
 Bombing has one marked differ ence from shell-fire. When bomb has exploded, soldier can be fairly sure that the worst is over, whereas when shell explodes, the first shell presages many successors. Shells, like troubles, never come singly.
 The soldiers try to pretend that they like shelling or even that they are indifferent to 1t. Many of them admit that nothing makes them more nervous than desultory shell-fire. They may try to appear apathetic- they generally light a cigarette-but 1t is altogether a poor performance.
 The absurd part of it is that the slightest cover makes the soldier quite himself again. It is the instinct of the ostrich. It is almost humorous to see that shelters man will run to if a shell comes their way. Long grass even creates the illusion of safety.

Continued from Page 1.) progress in their drive for the encir- cling of St. Quentin. They pushed in far on the south and captured the vil- lage and fort of Vendeuil, close to the Jose, nine miles northeast of St. Quera- tin, says today's war office announce ment.
 From vendeuil the French pushed on to the river.
 The statement:
 Tn the region of St. Quentin the French troops continued their ad- vance last night. They penetrated the wood north of Uys-Fontaine, captured the fort and village of Vendueil and pushed on to the Jose.
 French reconnoitering parties took prisoners north of the Aisne and in the Champagnsi sector in the direction of the Butte-du Mesn1l. German raids north of the Vesle and in the Vosges failed,
 With the French Army in France Sunday, Sept 22-(By The Associated Press)-General Debeney's troops continued to advance toward the La Fere road, south of St. Quentin today. They reached Landay, the Cappone and Le Mou1ine farms and the Ven deuil forest which is only 1000 yards from the road and about mile from the Disc river.
 As the French draw nearer the Hindenburg line around St. Quentin | the Germans multiply their defenses North of the Somme they appear to be reorganizing defensive system on the line of heights which parallel the enemy's to Hill 123, south of Holnon, and thence through Hill 1SS, east of Savywood to Dalton height, on the road from Ham to St. Quentin. This | line is being feverishly fortified against tanks with mine fields. All the eastern slopes of these heights are utilized to shelter troops which appear | to be quite dense there. A system of communicating trenches has been dug to permit the bringing up of supplies.
 General Debeney's men now are in contact with this line of resistance and they continue to advance. German forces in this region do not hesitate for preparing traps for the unwary foe.
