The Fourth Loan is the Fightin.
Loan.

AS the campaign for the Fouth
Liberty Loan approaches the Ameri-
can Army in France moves on to-
ward Berlin. Under our own leaders
the great American Army has won
a notable victory.
The Fourth Loan must be great
success. The Fourth Liberty Loan is
fighting loan.
When our soldiers on the battle
front are Drawing death, each one
offering to make the supreme sacri-
flee for his country and the great
cause, we who remain safely at home
surely should give them every support
should make every sacrifice to streng-
then them. If we cannot fight our
selves we can make our dollars fight.
1t is a great cause for which Amer
lea is engaged in this war; it is a
great struggle in which the very hope
of the world is bound up that is be-
ing waged in Europe and on the high
seas. 1t is an honor to have part
in it and all Americans, all of their
lives, will be proud of the part they
had in it or ashamed of their failure
to do their part.
The Fourth Loan is a fighting
loan. Every subscriber to the Loan
strikes blow for Liberty, for Vic
tory,

The American troops were brought
up in the night together with French
comrades from crack units and lay in
their positions until five o'clock this
morning. At that hour the American

Numerous tanks participated in the

The American infantry went into
attack without previous artillery

the rolling barrage they captured
many guns, prisoners, equipment and

The Germans in most places offer

weapons.

ALLIED DRIVE IS
MOVING FORWARD
WITHOUT A HITCH
Foch'S Offensive Is More of a
Success Than Was Expect
ed at Outset; Counter At
tack of Germans Fail.

With the American Army in
France, July IS t2 p. m, by the Asso-
ciated Press. The entire offensive
operation begun this morning on the
front between the Aisne and the
Marne is going at this hour for the
most part even better than had been
exnected. The enemy so far has beeh
unable to Withstand the shocks the
Americans and their allies have de-
livered and are still delivering.
AS the whole left German flank IS
menaced. the enemy must draw IN
his troops from the Marine front or
risk their being caught where they
are This means the finishing blow
possiblv has been administered to ms
dying offensive.
The towns of Torcy and Givry and
the Giyry wood were taken by the
Americans in their advance.
The final detectives in the Givry
and Torcy sector were reached IN
| about two hours of hard fighting.
The troops on this part of the front
did equally as well as those on the
of material and prisoners, who con-
! tinue streaming back.
Hastily organized counter cks
| against the Americans developed here
and there, but all were broken up and
| orr troops continue to advance.
In one town, on the southern part of
| the front, the Franco American forces
captured eighteen guns.
Probably the most stubborn resist
| ance to the allied advance developed
| in the region west of Chaubun. which
| is four and one-half miles southwest
| of Scissors The Americans and
| French, fighting side by side, how
| ever refused to be checked.
| The American machine guns moved
| the enemy down and then our troops
went on.
The fighting still continued in this
| region this afternoon and seems like
| ly to become heavier when the Ger
| man reserves arrive.
In the region of Scissors, where the
| attack was especially successful, the
Americans carried everything before
| them bv storm. Early this afternoon
| they had passed their final objective.
From the second to the third objective
they swept behind third barrage.
| The second detectives were usually
| taken by the troops of the first units
who had dug iniat the first detectives
The resistance to the south was es-
pecially vicious. AT some places the
