TEACHERS MEET
 ON APRIL 4TH

Little Rock, Feb. 8.-The largest meeting for the Arkansas Teachers Association ever held in the state will assemble here April 4, for three days meeting.
 The Executive Committee of the Association has repeatedly been- as sured by the hotels, the citizens and the Board of Commerce that five thousand teachers can be adequately taken care of in the city. Ample pre- parations are being made to see that all teachers who visit Little Rock Association week are entertained.
 Among the special features that will be provided will be a parade of the teachers, demonstrating to the laity the strength and force of the Arkansas State Teachers Association, the one great organization whose sole purpose is to promote the cause of education in Arkansas, and to ele- vate the character and advance the in- terests of the profession of teaching.
 Trips to Camp Pike, Fort Logan H. Roots, and the Ebberts Aviation Field near Lonoke are also being planned, which will interest every teacher in the state. The Board o fCommerce will give a reception, and other inter- esting feature of the Fiftieth Ami versary meeting will be announced later.

 The officers expect that every pro- gressive teacher in the state will be. come a member for the Jubilee meet ing, and that fully five thousand will be in attendance.
 Much is to be expected of the schools in the future on account of the great national crisis, and the educa- tional forces of the state and nation will be expected to stand patrioti- cally to the front to see that the edu- eational needs of the boys and girls are safe-guarded to the utmost of the ability of each teacher.

London. July 1S.--The great coun- ter attack in which the French and American troops are participating between the Aisne and the Marne has succeeded admirably we'll, ac- cording to the latest tadvices re ceived here tonight, and the situation for many reasons is considered very promising As there was no artil- lery preparation the action was a complete surprise for the boche ana the enemy artillery reaction was very weak.
 The French counter battery work was exceedingly effective. Enemy aviators entered into the action and attempted to impede 1he advance using their machine guns at low al- titude Notwithstanding this the counter attack was noteworthy Tor the reason that the French offensive accomplished much more than was achieved by the German drive on both sides of Rheims
 The length of the front over which an advance was made was practically the same, and the French and Amer jeans working together. advanced in three days.
 So far as is known at present the junction line between Soissons and Ouchy-le Chateau and Soissons and Nsmes are under direct Observa- ton and fire from. the new French positions on the Crisne ravine. These two lines are the only lines by which the Germans in this salient between Soissons and Rheims can be sup piled. It is possible the Germans have succeeded in connecting Up their lines in another way.
 The French counter is regarded here as one of the most brilliant pieces of work in the war and it is believed the results will prove ex- tremely valuable as the French have obtained most strategic positions.
 In London the view is held that the advance has put an end to the Ger man offensive for the present and that Rheims can be considered com paratively safe. The French have reached all their first objectives. Soutr of the Marne much local fight ing is reported. The French have lost some ground but are still With in effective range of the German brides across the river tho it is pos sible they may have lost direct oo- servatiOn.

 Americans.

With the American Army in France. July 1S.-The allies have reached
 roughly the line of Belleau, Cour- champs, Chouvy, Villers, -Helon, Chaudun, and the heights dominat- 1 ings Soissons. French cavalry has crossed beyond the Soissons- Chateau Thierry road to openings made by the ,, 'Franco-American forces. After pass
 ing the third obJectives Set for the
 operation of the morning the Amer jeans in cooperation with the French south of Soissons launched second powerful attack at noon Showing the effect of splendd training the American troops went forward swift ly and fought with fury.
 Nothing seemed to stop them espe- cially in the region of Soissons and to the south of that city. Light and heavy pieces were moved up as the troops advanced and soon after each barage ended shells from the Amer ican guns were deluging the enemy's rear areas, playing havoc with his forces whether those in retreat or reserves endeavoring to come up.
 In the open warfare with all the httending excitment and thru the gaps made by heavy guns and in santry the Wrench cavalry dashed down those in their path. Terrific losses were inflicted at all points on the enemy. The tanks did all that was exacted of them. The great lumber ing engines rolled along in front of the infantry driving the Germans be- fore them with streams of bullets and clearing away many Instructions that had escaped the artillery.
 The enemy early began to bring up strong endorsements. Fresh troops have appeared at various points and heavy counter attack probably will have to be withstood. On the line south of Soissons the American troops carried all their objectives in the second attack with the same dash as the first even proceeding farther than had been expected.
 The enemy was routed and for most part fled before the American advance, abandoning even light guns and ammunition. Only here and there along the line was strong resistance offered and at these points the Ger mans were attacked with rifle and bayonet before which they retreated steadily.
 So faf has the attack progressed that tonight the enemy in.the vicinity of Chateau-Thierry is considered to be in a somewhat dangerous position -one where he will have to act quick ly. The American troops including those returning 'bandaged are in high spirits. The Americans have re- ceived warm expressions of thanks from the French commanders.
