HUNS ARE FACING
GREAT SLAUGHTER
ALLIES HAVE GREAT BATTERIES
IN RESERVE TO BATTER GER
MANS TO PIECES.
DRIVE DOOMED TO FAILURE

Paris.-The allied troops. well sup
ported by heavy and field artillery,
have halted the Germans in their fu-
r!ous rushes to reach the railroad from
Clermont to Amiens. The enemy's
latest detectives we're evidently to
cut the railroad and take Amiens. In
both of these he failed.
The allies, holding their ground
firmly in many parts and counter
attacking successfully. have again
caused the Germans enormous losses.
The slight gains the enemy has made
in the last few days give the allied
high command no reason to fear, as
they are considered here only the fluc-
uations OF battle.
The Germans, notwithstanding their
terrific losses, will not give up their
attempt to break our lines nor will
they realize that such an attempt is
now doomed to failure. Both French
and British at the present hold good
positions in most parts dominating the
German ones.
1t is reported that some OF the
French heavy batteries have not been
fired yet, so that should the Germans
ever meet us within their range the
battle will reduce itself to an abso'
Lutte slaughter Of the Germans. It Is
also said the Germans have brought up
some naval guns with which they in
tend to lombard the railroad but this
does not trouble the French or British.

Don't Buy Too Bio a Bond.

Here Is word of advice for the
farmer bond purchaser. Don't bite on
more ,han you can chew. Your gov.
ernment doesn't want you to "strap"
yourself or run into financial difficul.
ties trying to pay for u bond. Buy one
small enough so you will be able to
my for II In the allotted time without
having TO borrow money TO meet the
obligation. It's value will represent
your savings for that period OF time.
n your circumstances won't permit Of
you purchasing n $1,000 bond, buy on.
" q $500 one. Don't complicnte our
already complicated financial problem
by assuming debt you cnn't pay.

WOMEN TO THE FORE
Wives and Mothers Know Value
Of Liberty Bonds.
War Behind the Lines 10 Being Prose.
euted on a Tremendous Scale
Every Woman Can Help
Do Something
(By ALBERT w. ATWOOD, Financial
Writer for the Saturday Evening

Writer for the Saturday Evening
Post.)
The day seems 10 have passed when
woman's education consisted of piano
lessons and little polite French.
Now she studies biology. PSYCHOLOGY,
and all the other ologirs. In this
great and radical change In the posi-
tion Of woman II will not do 10 over.
look the change In her relation 10
money matters. II Is no longer un.
womanly to know something about
money. Feminine charm Is not d.
minishcd by knowing the difference
between bond md n share of stock.
Millions Of women earn their living
today. Hundreds Of thousands have
independent means and must decide
for themselves In affairs financial
More and more Of the wives, mothers
md sisters not only spend the house
hold money, but ARE consulted by the
men when an investment ls 10 be
made. II matters not whether the
investment consists OF n yIctrola, an
automobile, or bond. II Is said men
do not take their wives into their con.
fidcnce when they gamble or take n
flyer. but Il Is also said that deception
In these matters does not pay.
So there IN every material reason
why women should do their part and
more In floating the Liberty bonds,
Indeed woman recognizes gold
dollar Just ms quick as man, and
when II pays good interest In addition
she II not going 10 turn II down. But
there Is more than purely busl.
ness and selfish side 10 the women of
this country. They have surprised
even themselves with their executive
ability and powers Of business organ
iznt,on. The Red Cross and every
other variety of relief work has been
IN Its detail largely the result OF
womnn's effort
Behind the lines women are prose
cutting the war on tremendous scnlc.
There are millions Of men as well ns
women who cannot fight In the
trenches, who cannot even drive mo.
,or,rucks or work In munItion fac
tories. There nre some people who can
no, even successfully raise vegetable
garden. hut there Is not nn adult man
or woman outside the poorhouse and
the hospital who cannot either buy or
helm To sell Liberty bond. II In the
least they can do.
Crittenden record-press., 1918-04-11

Ing 10 take It anyhow. IL las 10 hav,
II. II will make us pay II In taxes;
and then we not only will not have
any interest, but wen have nothing to
show for ,he money. In the second
room they all helped. How many OF
you are going TO help? How many
here want bondsf"
Partnership With Government.
Evidently the factory considered II
n good argument" And then the
wops, with their despised salaries, had
subscribed; everyone was thinking
about that. The hands began TO 30
up. and line Of applicants was
quickly formed.
The tall young man (whose mother
was an American) had stood, hesitat'
ing, until he saw Old Bailey's gray
head bend over the signature bench |;
and then. smiling, he slipped In be-
hind him, muttering, III he can, !
can"
Now the machines were humming
again and argument began once more
The thin man by the window was
the first to speak "Well," he com
mented. "we'vc got to do something
for the boySW
"When | get this paid, maybe theyh
have a per cent bond," said Jo, the
flnancler.
America and Italy; we gotta make
kill ALA de kings-alln no good nod
ded one Of the contributors from the
second room, with approval.
1t was the same everyday hum oi
the machines. but the factory was dif-
ferent. II was no longer n critical,
skcptical spectator Of the struggle OF
civilization, bitterly suspicious OF It's
own government II and the govern
ment were now partners. The war no
no longer the governments war; II
was our war. our army. our boys. ana
the factory was doing its bit
The bond salesman, perhaps, added
up the result OF his work with some
satisfaction; but by far the greater
and most important part OF II he
knows nothing about.
