A dispatch to the Star Friday night
told of the recapture by the French
- Saissons. This makes the fourth
time this Shattered and blood-stained
city has changed hands during the
war. 1t is of little material but great
moral value The Germans jubilated
immensely when they drove the
French out of it a few weeks ago,
and their dismay at its recapture by
the Allies will be in proportion.
