During the past week the great
battle on the western front has
ragged violently with the Germans
stin on the offensive. The Allies
have been greatly reinforced and
have succeeded in stopping the adj
vance of the Huns. The long range
German gun or guns continue to
pour shells on Paris and a number
of casualties have been reported.
The outlook for the Allies is de-
eidedly brighter than it was a week
ago and it is thought the next few
days viii bring forth some brilliant
Allied victories.

AMERICAN TROOPS ARE
BEING MOVED TO The FRONT

Definite ann0uneement that
American troops wsH actually fight
side By side with the French a=a
British in northern France reach
ed the American troops last night
in Pans newspapers. Il was greet
ed with cheering. The men Who VII
go are euvied BY the rest Of the
American forces
As they passed BY on the roads
they we're speeded on their way with
cries sueh as; Eat 'em uPw and
See, you fellows are in luck
Orders to proceed toward the
plains of Pieardy we're received
from the French high command
three days ago, but until II was
OffieiaIl yanouneed no mention could
be made Of It.
The muddy roads again were jam
med with Americans on the. move.
n some cases they were marching
in double lines, taking up the road
from side to side. For obvious rea-
sons, it Is inadvisable 10 disclose
where the troops are going, where
they are coming from or even the
direction in which the movements
are being made. 1t may not be many
days, however, before the United
States viii know 1t is possible that
news will come with the report Of
the American forces IN action, but
when that may be IS another sub
ject which cannot be discussed
Whenever it is, it Is certain the
troops viii CIV ca good account of
themselves, for they are husky,
hearty. trained and completely
equipped and on their toes for a
clash with the enemy. If this clash
should be in the open the troops
will like it better for they say:
i'That's our game" All are deter
mined to get into the fight if pos
sible.
