Red Cross Notes.

An appeal to the knitters of the
Oakley branch of the Red Cross.
1T IS asked that they devote every
available moment to the knit
ing needles. | thousands of sox
are needed. There is one appoint
ed IN each ward or unit that All
can reach for yarn and instruct
ions, who are-rcady and willing
to give their time that the knit
ing may be as nearly perfect &C
cordfng to instructions from head
quarters as possible. We ask
that any who do not understand
sox, ask advice before doing the
work and save time during this
drive. Knots. holes or darns
cannot positively pass. We are
put on our honor that every
article lie perfect that goes from
this branch, and we DO ask that
the knitters that when they pick
up their needles, feel that it is a
lcred duty, that n fla w in sox
might mean he loss of foot or
even life of one of our soldier
boys and not feel as one woman
expressed herself. ! have always
tied knots and and always intend
to, and to such | would say
please do not call for yarn. it is
time and material wasted Use
double yarn for setting up soxs
AS tapes vary. Please use wood

get them at the Red Cross Phar

ALLIED PLUCK AND
SPIRIT IS WINNING
HUNS ARE ON THE RUN, BEING
UNABLE TO STAND UP TO THE
AMERICANS AND FRENCH.
estterino Tactics Of Allied Forces Too
Much for Crown Princes Followers,
Who Are Desperately Fighting
to Prevent AnnihiIation.

With the Army in France.-Franco-
American troops, continuing their pres
sure on the Germans in retreat from
the Marne, have reached and crossed
the Oureq river and penetrated the
town of ere-en-Tardenois, one of the
great German supply bases for the
enemy troops inside the Sossons-
Rheims salient.
Meantime on the center Of the allied
right wing southwest of Rheims violent
attacks by the French have forced the
enemy to give further ground and en-
abled the French to capture several
towns of strategic value and to draw
their front appreciably nearer the high
road which runs northeastwaro from
Dormans to Rheims.
The Huns are on the run, but on the
extreme wings Of the gradually de-
creasing pocket - near scissors and
Rheims-the enemy, heavily reinforced,
is holding tenaciously, realizing that
successes there would result in a gem
eral crumbling of his plans of defense
against the locking up of his entire
armies inside the big bag. In addi-
ton to the large number of troops for
reinforcement that have been thrown
on these two sectors, the German long
range guns from the region north Of
scissors and north and northeast of
Rheims are keeping both wings of the
salient under heavy enfilading fire.
Under the battering tactics of the
Americans and Frenchmen the German
line on the south has now been driven
back more than twelve miles from the
point south Of Chateau Thierry, where
the allied troops locked the door to
Paris against the enemy July Is and
themselves became the aggressors in
what has turned out one of the great
est battles of the war.
Our men have been making a num-
ber of small raids into German
trenches, discovering the enemy's
strength and dispositions and doing as
much damage as possible in short
time The English, Australian, Canad
ian and New Zealand troops have all
been taking a Share in these grim ad
ventures and nearly every raidine
party brought back a few prisoners.
The line along the greater part OF
the bottom of Soissons- Rheims salient
has been pushed forward in some
places as much as five miles. The
Germans are bringing into play theil
artillery in force to check the plunges
of the Franco-American troops. The
Americans have played a brilliant par1
in the advance, which included sle oc
cupation of Sergy, on the north banl
of the river, and a number of small
villages.

GERMANS SLAIN IN HEAPS.
Losses During First Two Days Of
Campaign Greater Than Reported.

paris.-5The losses of the Germans
during the first two days of fighting,
after the launching of the enemy often
sive in the Champagne, appear now to
have been even heavier than was first
reported. When the Germans east of
4.neims fell into the trap which Gour-
aud laid for them they were moved
down literally in heaps. From where
Gouraud's guns were placed 1t was pos
sible, owing TO the line of terrain, to
observe directly the effect of the
French fire, and entire ranks of the
