USELESS MONEY IN BANKS
Have $4,000 They Do Not Know VIVA,

Battle Greek banks have $4,000 In
cash on hand they don't know what to

The money really belongs to several
thousands of men employed on Camp
Custer construction work who failed

contractors, paid out checks weekly
and the government deposited cash to
cover them. Hundreds Of men left
camp daily with pay checks for small
amounts, and the sum of unclaimed
money grew all summer. Some Of the
checks uncashed amount to $50 or
more.
The government has no way to take
the money back. Porter Bros. have no
legal claim on the money. And the
bank can't get rid Of the money be-

MASS MEETING
And Conference at First Presbyter.
ian Church April %.

There will be mass meeting and
conference at the First Presbyterian
Church April 23, at 2 p. m. and 1880
p. m. Two distinguished men will be
present sent by the National Commit
tee on the Moral Aims of the War.
DR.. Gulick has been connected since
1918 with the Federal Council of
Churches, and since 1915 has been
Secretary of the Worlds Alliance to
promote friendship between nations.
In 1915 he was sent with DR.. Ghailer
Mathews of Chicago to Japan as a
Christian Embassy. They received
the warmest welcome from the whole
nation. Arrangements were made by
which two Japanese representatives
of labor came to California where
they were cordially received by the
organized labor of California. This
evidence of better understanding be-
tween the two countries is of vast
importance at this time.
DR.. Slocum has studied abroad Eu-
ropean politics and the Eastern ques-
ton. AS newspaper correspondent
from the continent and a member Of
the Hague Congress he has come face
to face with the problems of the wan.
His address will bear on the funda-
mental principles at stake in the great
conflict and the relations of our coun-
try to the struggle. He holds that
the only hope for the liberties of the
world is in the downfall of the Ger
man autocracy and that victory cam
not come without larger part in the
conflict taken by our nation.
The afternoon meeting is confer
ence which will be open to all like
the night meeting.

HOMER SMITH EXCURSION TO
RIPLEY MUCH ENJOYED

The Homer Smith excursion to Rip
ley and Maysville was much enjoyed
by large crowd from here and from
Ripley. Many who attended the ex-
cursion spent the evening in dancing.
The music furnished was of very
good quality. The weather was mild
enough to sit out on the decks and en-
joy the beautiful river view.
The Homer Smith will run another
excursion Sunday to Cincinnati and
it is probable that a large number
from here will go as the Cincinnati
Reds and the Chicago Cubs are sched-
uled for that afternoon and the ex-

GROUND IS RETAkEN
BY FRENCH TROOPS
Huns Unble to Continue Gains
Against British - French Forces
In the Region OF Amiens Re-
cepture a Portion Of
Senecat Wood.

Paris, April 1S-The French forces
in the region of Amiens have captured
a portion of the Senecat wood, and
made advances against the Germans
on several other sectors, according to
the official communique issued by the
war office tonight
With the British Army in France,
April IS, 2 p. m.-Ten divisions of
German troops were driving furious
ly today against the British defenses
between Givenchy-Lez-La Basse and
st. Veniat, in an attempt to effect a
crossing of La Basse canal.
The British were holding well and
infiicting heavy casualties on the
enemy, according to the report.
Coincidentally with this pretentious
assault, the Germans surged forward
farther north, and again began ham
mering at the approaches to KENNEL
and the neighboring high ground.
New York, April 1S-Reninforced
by French troops the Allied line is
holding hard against further incur
sions by the Germans from the region
of La Basse to the north of Ypres. Ev-
erywhere the Germans have struck
the line in an endeavor to press back
the defenders, they have been re-
pulsed with heavy losses and have
been successful nowhere in gaining
further ground.
Attacks of an extraordinarily vio-
lent nature are being thrown by the
Germans on the ten-mile front be-
tween Ginvenchy and Robecq, where
an endeavor is being made to cross
the lie Basse canal and bend south
ward the salient which now outfanks
the important railroad town of Beth
une. A division of troops to each mile
is being used by the Germans on this
sector but the British at last accounts
were holding we'll, and inflicting
heavy losses on the enemy.
Canadian Divisions Are Sent Into
Fight
Ottawa Ont, April 1S-Advices
have been received in Ottawa which
indicate that at least one Canadian
division (believed to be the firsD now
is participating in the mighty con-
let on the Lys batNe front. Detailed
information was hourly excpected to-
night by the authorities.
Up to the present, Dominion troops
have not had an extensive share in
any of the fighting that has been rag
ing with such fury during the last
three weeks. In their Picardy often
sive, the Germans struck south of the
Canadian lines and only the Domin-
ion cavalry brigade and some Cana
dian armored cars took part in the
battle which followed. Their losses,
it is understood, did not exceed 1000
in killed, wounded and missing.
In the present drive the Germans
attacked north of the terrain held by
the Canadians and with the exception
of the division now reported in action
General Currie's men have expert
enced nothing more than the usual ar
tillery fighting.
