German Losses
Greater Than In
Any Previous Battle

PARIS, July 10. .-(Havas Ag-
ency.) ~ About twenty enemy di-
visions we're engaged in the fight
ing between Rheims and Chateau
Thierry and the same number be-
tween Rheims and Massiges. 9th
er divisions were in reserve and
ready to enter the battle.
All the divisions have been iden-
titled as representing the elite Of
the German army, showing that
Germany on Monday delivered an
extremely powerful effort. All
the divisions suffered heavily.
Statements made by prisoners
are to the effect that their officers
had assured them they would have
an easy victory, asserting that
they would be opposed by troops
in no great numbers and who were
completely demoralized.
Never before we're the enemy
losses so high. Piles of bodies
cover the ground.
The fighting Of the Americans
and Italians was extremely bril-
liant.
liant.
In the region of Prunay the
heavy attacks Of the enemy were
repulsed outright. The German
losses at that point are estimated
as 65 per cent of the effectives en-
gagged.

The day was a typical Thanksgiving
Day, with the exception Of the weather.
The scenes around the home Of Mrs.

southern home in Autumn time. One
was reminded Of the thought of the
poet who said: "The year leans to the
west; and now earths care is over,
! for God has sent it rest"
Everywhere there was abundance Of
things physical for which to be thank

was seen the abundance of harvest.

ton for relief in time Of stress and
the reconstruction period following
the greatest war in history is no time
for inactivity.
The work Of the Red Cross in war
is universally known; the work, now
that the war Is over, will be conducted
along exactly the same lines as dur
ing the days Of actual hostilities.
First. the soldiers and sailors over
serve army and they need all the Red
Cross has to offer Of help, Of encou'
seas now stand as an emergency re-
agement and Of cheer. AS the men
come slowly home, numberless diff
culties will arise before they can find
themselves in their old places in civil
life;. these difficulties, whether they
touch the home or the business life,
the Red Cross will help to make easy.
The 'convalescent soldier and the
one permanently disabled will turn
to the Red Cross to be helped back to
health and to be placed in new indus
tries for which new education is re-
quired During this ltime of read
justment the men and their families
will often need counsel, encourage
ment and protection, and possibly ma
terial aid at times; all Of this the Red
Cross will give.
America Is the one country whose
resources are practically untouched
by war; famine. pestilence, danger

have participated in the fiercest strug

LIES PROBLEMS
ARE DISCUSSED
Bv MRS. WILSON WOODROW

1 was sitting, in restaurant TAX
ing a solitary luncheon the other
day, having a beautiful time pour
ing over an enthralling book which
had only, been able to read in
sratcheskAaa ar, when an acquaint-
ancc camS@Np, greeted me and sat
down opposite me.
Isn't it too bad about poor
mary?" she began. You know she
has just haG an operation" Here
she elaborated all the details. And
Bertha" she sighed. Don't you
feel dreadfully about her? Isn't it
one of the saddest things you ever
knew? And wasn't that tragic about
young Jones? But, my dear, just
let me tell you about all of the
things that have happened to me
lately"
She told them, emphasizing the
woe wherever it was possible. After
she had gone l looked at my be-
quilting book and my untouched cof-
fee and groaned. Then L summoned
the waiter.
please bring me another pot of
coffee and a fresh cup" l wanted
TO add: THAT woman has poisoned
this one" But L feared that he
might misunderstood me and send
tor the police.
Yet it was quite true in one sense
I simply could not drink the cof-
fee into which my erstwhile COM
panion had poured all that mental
wormwood.
This woman was prosperous, she
was healthy, it was in her power to
add much to the happiness of the
world. And yet she would probably
move about all day adding her
mite-mountain seems more appro-
priate-to the general gloom fund.
To have discoursed as she had
was not mere thoughtlessness or an
exhibition of inherent morbidity: it
was wretched taste. She did not
know what might have happened in
my life that very morning. l might
have been sitting there outwardly
calm, but inwardly consumed with
anxiety about some one dear to me.
| might have just received some dis
tressing news, or might have been
trying to pull myself together after
some knockout blow of fate.
These possibilities did not enter
her head. She was too much alb
sorbed in the unhealthy, the un-
happy side of life to dream that
other people were not or that she
might be quickening in them a host
of secret apprehension.
TO do her justice, / do not believe
that willingly she would have added
to any ones burdens. Yet she went
about imagining that she was being
interesting and entertaining wheE
she was merely profoundly depress-
ing. Still, great as were her sins
against others, her sin against her
self was greater. She was steadily
subtracting from her own buoyancy
OF nature, her own power to face
difficulty and diSa Gtar and raact
quickly to the more cheerful view;
the happier outlook. She was bat
tering down her poise instead of
safeguarding it. She was making
herself a minus instead of plus
quantity.
l heard a man interested in mo-
ton pictures discussing various
phases of them the other day.
"A baby" he said, "is the unsur-
PASSED comedian of the screen. The

Advice to the Love1orn
Splendid Ideals
DEAR MISS FAIRFAN.

DEAR MISS FA1RtAN:
| have been close friends with
girl from childhood, yet we are
drifting apart. In my opinion the
cause is dress and different views of
the male sex.
We are both seventeen. Although
make as much as she does, if not
more, still | cannot afford to dress
stylishly, as | have to contribute all
of my salary to the family budget.
She, on the other hand, uses almost
all of her money for dress. / cannot
adapt myself to her views of choos-
ing friends among boys. She consid-
ers 1T proper to go out with boy to
whom she has been introduced at a
dance, party or n concert. l wouldn't
think of going out with a boy or a
man whom I didn't know personally.
This also causes us to drift apart. as
she goes out several times during the
week and / perhaps once in a few
months for the above mentioned rea-
son. This makes me very lonely
sometimes and then 1 begin to doubt
my views.

ested in him. Whatever he does
amuses and delights. If he cries
every woman present wants to rise
Up and comfort him; if he laughs,
the entire audience laughs with
him. He occupies the stage"
The reason is, that baby is all
plus. He is unconscious, unre-
strained, incarnate joy. And every
one in his radius feels it and re-
spends to it.
The whole world is just big
audience. We want to be thrilled
with the suspense of vital courage
and big, splendid deeds. We want
beauty, romance and adventure to
enchant us and lift us out of our
selves. We want our hearts touched
and our emotions reached by the
pathos of life, it's eternal passion,
eternal pain. And we want to
laugh. oh, above all things, we
want to laugh!
| have letter this morning from
girl who writes me that she was
the happiest girl in the world until
about a year ago, when she had a
misunderstanding with the young
man to whom she had been en-
gagged. Since then, she says, life
doesn't interest her any more.
"I am good-looking," she can
tinues, clever, have a happy home,
and everything to live for; but moth
ing seems to cheer me up. 1 have
tried to forget, but it seems impos-
sible."
1t is, of course, no consolation to
tell you, my dear girl, that this grief
is almost sure to be merely tempo
rary, that in few years you will
have found ample solace, and be
looking back on this period of your
life with amaZement.
But l do urge you to make a very
strong effort to stop subtracting
from your own sum of joy and in
stead determine to increase it in
every way.
Here you are, very young, pretty,
in pleasant circumstances. My dear,
you are lowered of the gods. The
world is yours, and the fulness
thereof.
For you alone the sky is blue,
For you the rose is red"
Open your eyes and look at what
life offers you. Opportunity to
make anything you want to your
self. What we really desire to be
we can be.
Your heart may be very sore and
sad. But it is not broken, it will
mend And there is too much to do
in the world to-day for any one to
coddle a sick heart. Don't shut your
self up in the prison of your own sad
thoughts, but get out into the big,
living, suffering, but forever beauti-
full, forever glad world.
Do not be a blighted being. 1t
shows a lack of courage and a lack
of imagination. Life has been very
good to you; it is only fair that you
express your appreciation.
Resolve that you are not going
to be any little Sally Waters sitting
in the sun a-weeping and awaiting
for a young man. Play your part,
enact the role of the bright, charm
ing, pretty girl. Bow to worlds low
fcotlights, and catch the wreath
that is hung. And If you do it
whole-heartedly, for the sake of
your family and your friends and
your own self-respect, you will find
before you know it that you are not
