AMERICANS CANNOT
MOVE BALANCE At ONCE
German Newspapers Continue to Belittle
American Participation in the War
But Recognize Good Fighting
Qualities of Newcomers.

Amsterdam, July l5.--The German
press continues its campaign Of belittling
the American military effort on the
western front.
The military correspondent of the 10.
kal Anzeiger keeps step with the other
experts and expresses disbelief in the
statement that more than a million
American soldiers are in France. How
ever, he confesses to great admiration
for the personal qualities Of the Amer
lean soldiers, although he considers that
they lack discipline, saying:
They are smart fellows, but only
when they like to be-"
at is granted" he adds, that Amer
lean human material equals the English,
yet the American army will be inferior
because the Americans will not have
leaders possessing the requisite ex-
perience for handling big armies"
General Koble, the military critic of
the Germania, says that at the most
there are 100000 Americans, including
working squads, at the front, and pro-
ceeds:
1.-THE significance of Americas action
should in nowise be moderated, nor does
our chief command underrate it, but we
should guard against overrating it for
no other reason but that transportation
must be made increasingly difficult by

Look well to their record. What
they have done many times in years
gone by is the best guarantee of fu-
ture results. Anyone with bad back;
any reader suffering from urinary
troubles, from kidney ills, should find
comforting words in the following
statement:
Newton Graham, prospector,744 Min-
ter Ave-, Glenwood Springs, gave the
following statement June 7, 1909:
"About thirty years ago 1 strained my
back while lifting, in a saw mill. From
that time on, especially when 1 would
catch cold, I had attacks of pains
across my back and through my loins.
The kidney secretions were awfully
painful in passing and were scanty.
Doan's Kidney Pills relieved me Of all
those symptoms"
On March 16, 1917 Mr.. Graham said ::
"I still praise Doan's Kidney Pills and
gladly repeat my previous statement
recommending them. When I feel my
kidneys becoming disordered I use
Doan's Kidney Pills and they always
do good work"

The score was SO to 26.

Saturday morning the team moved to
Glenwood Springs where they were Civ
en- warm reception. The members of
the team were royalty entertained at
the homes of the townspeople during
their stay. The business houses of
Glenwood were closed early so that
everyone could attend the game. The
attendance was about $50, and the
school showed pep and spirit that
would do credit to a town many times
its size. The game was played in the
high school gym and was clean exhib-
ition of basketball, both teams giving
their best to win by clean methods.
The Terrors were victorious, the score
being 60 to 23.
While at Glenwood Springs the m I'm,
bers of the team were the guests Of

at which they enjoyed the novelty of
swimming in the hot springs with sn

among whom were Leadville people
who came down on the special train
with the teams, witnessed the games.
Everyone knew that it was to be one
of the most interesting games of the
season, because it was to decide wheth.
er Glenwood or Leadville boys were to
participate in the state tournament to
be held at Boulder.
The girls played first. The game
was very interesting one. Opal Rich,
ardson and Ora May Oldenburg, the
two freshmen members of the team
each played an exceptionally good
game. Marie keck starred, throwing
all of Glenwood's baskets. The Glen
wood girls put up a good fight and
showed Leadville that they were up
against real team. The final score
was 27-ll in favor of Leadville.
The boys game started out with a
rush, Leadville winning the first point
on foul. Leadville started the
"roughing' and Glenwood followed
them right up. When the captain of
the Leadville team found that he was
beaten at his own game, he took his
men off the floor in the middle of the
last half, thus forfeiting the game to
Glenwood. The score was 14-6 in ia
vor of Glenwood.
The Athletic association wish at this
time to thank the people of Glcnwood
for their liberal patronage during the
basketball season that has just closed.
Having brought trains from greater
distances than usual, expenses have
been higher than ever before and wero
it not for the generous support ac-
corded us by the people of Glenwood

have been possible.
