1t will be remembered by the read
ers Of this papsr that few weeks
ago we had an article in relating to
the two men that were taken to Camp
lodge by force from iceland. The
Bismarck Tribune has the following
to say Of one Of the men:
Bismarck Tribune June 81 This
man should be held in the service
until he is made into decent Amer
ican citizen. He was born in North
Dakota % years ago and has not yet
learned to speak English. A year or
two in the army will accomplish more
toward making an American out of
him than % years in iceland N. D.

General Fraser made in returning to

THEY NEVER SING THE OLD

PORTLAND, Ore, Oct. 2S.-"I sup pose the boys go marching along sing ing 'Tipperary' and other old songs ?" said a bubbling young girl to Lieuten- ant R. A. Blythe, veteran of the bloody first battle of the Marne, who has been wounded numerous times. gassed, and almost buried alive when bursting shell caused the cave-in of his dugout.
 The lieutenant looked pained.
 There is an unwritten law in the army now that 'Tipperary.' Keep the Home Fires Burning and q few of the old favorites of the opening of the war are never sung" he said. And why? Because the fine brave fellows who used to sing them are now in 'blighty'for good They've all gone west.

FRENCH LIGHT TANKS PROVE
 THEIR WORTH

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES IN FRANCE. Oct. 2S.-Greater laurels daily are being won by the French light tanks" which are cooperating with the American forces in pushing the Germans back toward the Rhine Among the many individual feats of the tanks and their drivers which have come to light one of the most 1 interesting, perhaps, is that of Briga- dier Collier. who has been decorated with the cross of the Legion of Honor for his work in a light tank which enabled fifteen American soldiers to capture seven hundred Germans.
 Several hundred of these tanks led the counter-offensive from the Villers- Cotterets forest in July. which marked what appears to have been the turn. ing point of the war.
 They broke through the enemy's | lines. destroying his machine guns overcoming strong centers of resist ance and spreading panic and demor- alization in the German ranks.
 Wherever the infantry was preced- ed by the chars d'assaut' as the French call them. the advance was three miles q day.
 It was these same French light tanks" which preceded the Amer jeans in their advance upon Juvigny and Terny on the Soissons plateau. One of them manned by lieutenant, killed more than 200 Germans on the plateau.
 Documents that have come into the hands of the French staff show that the Germans are greatly worried by the light tanks and are studiously coaching their men in methods of de fense against them.
 The light cars have the advantage of greater Speed and of being more easily handled than the heavier tanks They require q crew of only two men, driver and gunner and carry a one and half inch gun and ma chine gun.

SALUTAToRY.

Having purchased the Office and
business of the Perrysburg Journal,
I wish to assure the people of the
town, township and vicinity that
it will be my constant endeavor to
give to them a clean, readable paper
worthy of their support and en-
couragement.
For the past six years l have been
associated with Mr.. Blue in the
Journal Office and therefore believe
that my acquaintance with the
Journals patrons will enable me
to anticipate their wishes and
render the service due from the
publisher to the subscriber.
In the future the Journal shall
not take the stand for either politi-
cal party, but will be an independ-
ent, non-partizan newspaper offer
ing to both political parties the
same rights and privileges, guaran-
ting to all a square, upright and
hoporable deal.
The columns of the Journal will
continue to be open to good, clear
reading matter and legitimate ad
vertising, all of which we earnestly
solicit together with the suppor'
and cooperation of all the people
of the surrounding community.
With the coming of the Holiday

and tried to serve. And during
that time the Journal has always
been loyal to home and country,
Our place will be taken by Mr..

ambition and hope to spur him on
to success. We are assured that
he will give the best there is in
him to make the Journal faith
full advocate of all that may have
a tendency to enhance the best in
terests of the town, township and

We extend our most sincere
thanks to the many friends who
have proven their friendship by
favoring us with their business
and good will and assure them
that they will long be remem-
bered.
That we have not pleased all
the people all the time, only
proves that we are human. But
we can assure the good people of
this community that we cherish
only the best Of good will for all.
And now for the last time as
editor of the Journal, we extend
to all Merry Christmas and
Happy New Year.
