CLAIM ALLOWED
A GREAT SUCCESS

If anyone ever doubted that the 1918
class of the Garfield County High
school possessed histronic talent of
high order that doubt might easily
have been set aside by attendance at
the Senior class play, 'Claim AL
lowed,' staged at the Odeon theater
Tuesday evening.
To begin with, the selection of the
play was most happy one at this pa"-
ticular time, Claim Allowed being
filled with patriotic thrills from be
ginning to end, and from first to last
the large audience gave the utmost at.
tention and heartily applauded the
many beautiful patriotic expressions
which ran throughout the text.
The earnestness and self composure
of the young men and young ladies
who played their parts so well, is II
high compliment, not only to each Of
the members of the Senior class, but
rector, Rollin Smith, whose skill in as
signing the parts and directing the per-
formance proved that he is complete
success in his capacity.
The house was filled before the cur
tain was drawn and many were obliged
to stand during the performance, but
this they did without complaint and
thus evinced their interest in the play
and also in the embrionic actors.
The many illusions to the war, Lib
erty bonds and the duty we all owe to
the government at this time brought
out much applause and from first to
last the young people were made, TO
feel that their auditors were in hearty
accord and sympathy with play and
players. The young people are highly
pleased with the splendid patronage
accorded them and also with the gra
cious spirit in which their efforts were
received.
The Post cannot review each indi
vidual s effort, especially in view of
the fact that there were no poor play
ers and no stars, unless it may be said
that all were stars.
At the close of the performance,
after the young people had received
the congratulations of their many
friends, they posed i'll stage costume
for a flashlight group picture and then
repaired to Bryant $ for refreshments.
So we'll was their first efforts received
that the young folks are considering
the presentation Of this play In other

Germans Use Two Divisions
In Attack, But Fail To Hold
Ground Taken
ALLIED LINE STRONG

The allied defense on the Flanders
front to the southwest of Ypres has
again been tested by the Germans and
has been found adequate. Two divi-
sions of Teutonic troops were employed
on relatively short front and were
sent into the fight under cover Of ter.
rifle artillery fire. The front chosen
for the attack extended from the vii
lage of Vooremzeele, but the center of
the assault seems to have been at Vier-
STRAIT, hamlet northeast of KENNEL
hill.
The flanks of the German attacking
line were stopped short by fire from
the French and British artillery posted
on high ground, and which was able to
enfilade the German regiments as they
tried to advance. In the center, how
ever, the Germans made quite a serious
dent in the allied line. Wednesday,
however, the allies drove forward in 4
counter attack, and the latest reports
effect that the line has been re-estab
lished. The Germans are reported to
have lost heavily during the fighting
There is q constant rumble of heavy
artillery fire along the Somme front,
but here the British have again i'm.
proved their position by local attacks.
The Canadian forces from New Bruins
wick and Nova Scotia have engaged in
q successful local attack south of Ar
ras.
E
On the southern sector of the Somme
salient, as well as in Lorraine and 9th
er sectors further south, there have
been no noteworthy combats.
The artillery of the contending ar
mics continues very active in the Asia
go basin region on the Italian front.
The official reports from Rome tell of
enemy troops being "hampered' by
the allied fire. The Brenta and Maser-
ada sectors also have been centers of
heavy bombardments.
The city of Amiens is being system
atically destroyed by German artillery
fire, in spite of the fact that there are
no allied troops in that place and it is
of no military value since the allies
have constructed new lines of communi-
cation outside of the city. The vener-
able cathedral, one Of the finest in
Europe, is reported to have been struc X
by shells and to be in peril of de-
structioh.

The foundation of the 1000. =
900 bushel grain elevator is well
along at the st. Johns Municipal
terminal and footing for the
powerhouse foundation and other
parts are under way. but on the
main tuilding the work has slow
ed because the waterproofing
is being applied before the side
walls are carried higher. The
steel reinforcing was delivered
at a favorable time and columns
are going in as well as the
other labor on the ground, so it
is believed the plant will be
operating by the time 1919 rolls
around. As interior elevators
are beginning to handle bulk
grain it is aimed TO have the
Portland plant ready for part of
the cereal to be shipped to tide
water. Already there have been
receipts of the new wheat crop.
