That Enemy Is Making
Last Desperate Stand

WASHINGTON. July 23.-The
German high command apparently
is making desperate efforts TO hold

lean troops hJmmering away from

Italian forces battering at the west
flank OF the German position, il was
still far from certain Monday night
that the enemy would be able TO
set his forces out of the southern
end of the salient without terrific
losses.
Already great numbers OF prison
ers and guns have been taken by
the American and allied forces. The
only estimate from official sources
covering the aggregate captures by
French. American and Italian troops
during the first two days of the
counter offensive gave 10000 as the
probable total. There are indica-
tions that the number captured on
sunday might Joe create, although

and Chateau Thierry sectors prob
ably accounted m some par. for the
swiftness OF the advances made dur

 creased Gunfire.

With the American Forces in France, July 4.-French villages where there are Americans present cd a truly American appearance to- day, French soldiers and civilians joining the Americans in celebrating the Fourth and making it the holiday ofs both nations.
 Civil and military buildings and business places and private residen- ces were decorated with American and French flags and the colors of the other allies. Children in the streets waved small flags in honor of the Americans.
 Old women and children living in the vicinity Of American cemeteries fairly smothered the graves of Amer ica's heroic dead with fresh flowers.
 Athletic contests between many of the American regiments developed the keenest competition. Officers contributed the prizes and there were races, boxing and baseball.
 The Germans also knew it was Americas great day, from the artil- lery, machine guns and rifle firing which was increased on the American front.

Weathers were appointed committee to draft res olutions recommending that 'Presi- dent Wilson be reelected.
 It was the regular meeting night of the machinists, but the Fourth of July spirit was so strong that it speedily became a patriotic demon- stration It developed during the talks that the machinists are far more than Zip patriots" for besides their other patriotic work they have sold something over $2.500 worth of War Savings stamps and are still so- liciting pledges.
 The members of the ladies' auxil- iary will be rendered "Hooveriz- ed luncheon" at the next meeting, to take place on July IS. A patriotid program will be rendered. Fred Pe- terson. Robert Cranston and H. I. Kolkbrenner were appointed a com mittee to arrange for the event.

Learn to Do Without,

One of the arts of life is to learn how to do without. Few of us have everything we consider desirable and if we grumble at every little deprivation we make ourselves miserable and our associates uncomfortable. To learn to do without and yet be cheery and happy, goes far toward, making life q success.

will, by saving. release labor and ma
terials for the use of the governments;
to prosecute the war. Thus, thru the

The mother and parent-teacher as
sociations, culture clubs, churches,
missionary societies and the w. c. r.

work along this line by forming War
Savings societies within the ranks of
their members. Among the several
thousands of lodges and secret and
fraternal organizations in Kansas
societies are now being formed, while
among the employees in stores, offices,
banks, in factories large and small
organizatio are in process of fornla-

Organized saving is, urged by Mr..
Goebel as the most efficient means. of

A War Savings society may be
formed by ten or more persons who,

selves to save Systematically and TO

WHY HAIR FALLS OUT

Dandruff causes a feverish irrita-
ton of the scalp, the hair roots shrink,
loosen and then the hair comes out
fast. To stop falling hair at once and
rid the scalp of every particle of dand-
ruff, get a small bottle of Danderine
at any drug store for a few cents, pour
a little in your hand and rub we'll into
the scalp. After several applications
all dandruff disappears and the hair
stops coming out.-Advertisement.
