Enemy Losses Heavy
The text reads:
The battle was fought with sus-

and last night The Germans,
blocked by the valiant French troops
and cruelty punished before the Las
signy and Noyon fronts and the left
bank of the river Disc, concentrated
all their efforts on the French left
and threw forward important forces
in the region of Montdidier.
''At this point the engagements
soon developed an unheard-of fer
ocity. French regiments, fighting
hand-to-hand inflicted heavy losses
upon their assailants and did not
falter. Finally they withdrew in
order to the heights immediat ely to
the west of Montdidier.
There has been intermittent can
nonading on the remainder of the

Washington, March 2S.-Late re-
ports that Anglo French defense is
stiffening before the German as
sault on the western front led Amer
lean military observers to believe
to-day that an allied counter stroke
might get under way at any mo-
ment.
All depends, officers said, on the
forces the allies have been able to
muster in reserve. There is every in
dication that both the British and
French have been using reinforce
ments sparingly in their efforts to
stem the German advance. mean
while conserving. their manpower TO
the day Just ahead.
Although no official report has
reached the War Department of the
participation of Am merican troops 9TH
er than engineer units, the view here
is that Americans may take part in
the attempt to hurl the Germans
back.

RETURN OF BOY SCOUTS

Wild woods Company of Boy Scouts
broke camp last Monday afternoon at
Dorchester Heights, one mile from
L~eesburg. For three days they had
tented OF penny Hill,n along a big
woods-near to Nature and "heard the
owl scream and the crickets cry;p but
this did not daunt them much. What
worried them most was the "peskyu
mosquitoes, which like the poor, we
shall most likely always have with
us !" The brave Boy Scouts fear MOTH
ing big, such as lions, tigers, snakes
and even Huns; but when it comes to
the little winged musical Jersey 'skee-
%ters," the boys lose their nerves-on
the same principle that an elephant
fears nothing so much as a tiny mouse.
Mosquitoes are remorseless, and they
disturbed the otherwise happy sIum-
beers of these future soldiers. AT Camp
penny Hill," the lads rowed on the
Maurice river, near by and swan IN its
muddy waters. They also took fire.
quent hikes in the ne~lghborhood, as
the candy and ice cream shop was a
mile away. One poor fellow might
have been scalped by Tan envious sill
ver'' of an overhanging oak tree bough.
The unfortunate boy was Fred Nc
Keown, who was running at top speed,
when he tried to duck under the bough.
Two slight scalp wounds was the only
result. A doctor was sent for and hug
ried to the scene of the accident,
and bound up McKeown's wounds.
Patrol leaders were elected as follows:
Clarence Adds, first patrol leader;
Charles Inglee, second patrol leader;
Ed. Wimley, third patrol leader; and
Ed. Ziesel was elected patrol leader of
the Red Cross patrol. w. D. Inglee,
of e. Andrew avenue, went along as
cook, and enjoyed the outing as much
as the youngsters. Assistant Scout
master Courtlsnd Steelmsn made the
trip with the boys to and from camp,
lIoat returned IN the meantime 70 10
here Saturday night and Sunday. The
boys attended Sunday-school at the
Leesburg NJ. e. church, the pastor OF
which is Mr.. Eldredge, a cousin of
Cashier G. G. Eldredge. The trip to
Dorchester Heights was so much en-
joyed by the Scouts, that they are al
ready laying plans for their next out
ing, to last two weeks.
