MILLIONS OF SOLDIERS
SWARM YIN. CA. HUTS
Annual Report of Southeastern De-
partment Reveals ss, $50 Boys
In Camps Crowded Buildings
(By L. Porter Moore.)

| Atlanta, Ca, August 25,-An attend
ance of nearly twenty times the pop
ulation of Atlanta swarmed happily
| in Y. M. C. A. huts in the seven
states of the Southeastern camps dur
ing the fiscal year July /, 1917, to July
/, 1918, according to the annual re-
port just issued here.
In other words, soldiers in the South
eastern cantonments to the number
of 3S,866,980 men wrote letters in the
"Y" army and navy huts, read litera-
ture there and joined in the religious
services and entertainments held in
the Red Triangle buildings which dot
military reservations in Georgia, Ala
bama, Tennessee, the Carolinas, Mis-
sissippi and Florida.
1t is easy to imagine the mountains
of stationery the Y. NJ C. A. provided
in the camps of the Southeast when
1t is stated that soldiers wrote 32,-
SS9,002 letters in the "Y" huts. The
Red Triangle workers also made out
$2,463,744 worth of money orders for
the soldiers, most of the amount be-
ing sent home to relatives
Educational Work Featured
The "Y'' also provided 1905 educa-
tional lectures with a soldier attend
ance of 1,291,243. The educational
classes of various kinds aggregated
64,813 and the attendance was 97S,-
045 Books circulated by the Y. NJ
C. A. numbered 764,710 and educational
clubs formed among the men were
649 Physical activities when figured
In statistics amounted to an amazing
amount. 1t is estimated 36S3,350 par
ticipated in the various physical ae
tivities such as baseball, track and field
meets, baseball, etc.
The spectators, the majority of them
soldiers, at these physical activities,
are estimated for the year at $685.
31S.
The resume of religious activities
shows that 3,464,45i persons attended
16,46S religious meetings under "Y'
auspices in the Southeast, that II, ,2SS
Bible classes were formed among the
soldiery with attendances ranging at
395,34S, that 223,232 Scriptures were
distributed, that "Y" workers had 157,-
533 personal Christian interviews with
soldiers, that the boys made 43,099
Christian decisions and that 1888
signed the religious war roll.
The attendance at the social events
of the Y. M. c. A. was phenomenal
during the year 3,713,609 attending
$3.50 entertainments. The attendance
at the "Y" movie shows was estimated
Mt 4,67S,53 for 1922 performances.

Y.M.C.A. NEEDS men
IN SOUTHERN CAMPS
While Red Triangle Continues to Call
for Overseas Workers, 1000 Are
Wanted for Home Service

Atlanta, Ca, August 25-Men en-.
dowed with the element of leadership
are needed by the Army and Navy
Y. M. C. A. to serve in the camps Of
the Southeast.
DR.. w. w. Alexander, general re-
Gruiting secretary for the War Per-
sonnel Board of the Y M. c. A. War
Work Council, declares that there Is a
pressing need for home service, and
that this affords splendid opportun-
ity to the man of middle age who Is
not able to go abroad under the Red
Triangle.
"The Y. NJ G. A. needs men for
overseas service, of course, but the
home camps must not be forgotten"
explained DR.. Alexander, From now
on until the first OF the year the
Southeast must recruit 1000 men for
the home camps. This means that
each state will be called upon to fur
nish 25 men per month per state to
serve the soldiers in camps such as
Gordon, Jackson, Wheeler and the
others. The constant growth of the
home cantonments and the growing
'emand for the Y, M. G. A. work
makes 1t necessary to recruit "Y"
workers for this side"

THREE WAR MEDALS
BESTOWED ON "Y"HERO
Red Triangle Worker Wounded by
Hun Machine Gun at Scissors,
TouI and Chateau Thierry

New York, August 25.--Flat on his
back in the Waldorf-Astoria hotel, w.
A. Roberts, who has been awarded
three French war medals for bravery
in the fighting zones, is enjoying a
well-earned rest, and is talking freely
of almost anything but why the
French government showered honors
upon him.
Mr. Roberts, Y. M c. A. worker
in France, had bestowed upon him the
Croix de Guerre, the badge of the
Legion of Honor, and the Medal Mill
taire. He won them all in three
months.
Roberts was assistant auditor of the
Michigan Central railroad before he
was selected to be auditor of disburse-
ments for the Y. M. c. A. in France,
and to handle more than quarter of
a million dollars a day. He left for
overseas service February IL, was
wounded by a Hun machine gun at
Scissors, rescued "Y" secretary amid
a hail of bullets in the Toul sector
and was touched up by German marks
manship again at Chateau Thierry.

(By the Associated Press

The Germans continue in retreat
everywhere between Arras and Sois-
sons under the violent attacks by the
Allied troops. There seems to be no
slackenng in the offensive that is
steadily reelaiming numerous French
towns and villages and territory that
long has been in the hands Of the
enemy.
Indeed, instead Of hating his men
for a breathing spell Marshal Foca
seems to be pushing them forward
with greater impetus and at present
the retiring enemy shows more of a
battle turning and offering more OF
battle than he recently has been Civ
ing with his machine gunncrs and in
fantry units that are acting as their
guards to check the forward move
ment.
Already outflanking the old Hinden
burg line on the north Field Marshal
Haig's forces are gradually cutting
their way eastward both north and
south OF the Somme and putting down
strong counter offensive actions, al
though on several sections they have
had TO code ground temporarily.
Unofficial reports assert that the
British have captured the important
town OF Bapaume, where for days
there has been bitter fighting, the
Germans exerting their utmost streng

BELIEVE N0GALES
AFFAIR Is ENDED

Washington, Aug. 29.--Official re-
ports to the war and state depart
ments today emphasized that the bor-
der trouble at Nogales, Ariz., will
soon end if it has not already ceased.
Reports from Major General Hol-
brook, in command on the border,
said quiet had been restored. State
department dispatches told of salts
factory results from the conference
between Brig. General Cabell and Gov
Gales. At the Mexican embassy here
it was stated that Gov. Gales could
be counted upon to stamp out the ac-
tiyities of the German propagandists
in Sonora.
Such information as the state de-
partment received on the forcible en-
try of armed Mexicans into the Amer
lean consulate at Nogales, Sonora,
and the wounding of American Con-
sui Tooley Indicated that the incident
was the act of irresponsible persons
and not the Mexican military.
The violation of the consulate is
now under investigation but there is
every disposition on the part of the
officials here TO treat the affair as
purely local incident which should not
be elevated to an international issue.

GERMANS CONTINUE Retreat BETWEEN ARRAS AND SOTSONS
AMERICANS SWEEP FORWARD
OVER JUVIGNY PLATEAU

With the American Army in France
Aug. 29.-(By Associated Press.)-
Accompanied by fleet of tanks and
covered by heavy artillery barrage
the Americans swept forward early
today against the German lines that
slowly and reluctantly fell back over
Juvigny plateau. The little operation
carried out yesterday by the French
and Americans had been merely pre-
paratory to the attack which began
at Z o'clock this morning. The kink
mad been taken out of the enemy. but
no determined effort was made to ad-
vance TO any extent.
The firing was continuous throueb-
out the night on both sides, the Ger
man guns being especially active. The
rains OF the early evening ceased be-
fore the ground had been converted
into mud, so when the orders were
given today, the men moved forward
unimpeded.
4he German positions were shelled
most vigorously by heavy guns, NOR
tars and light pieces, firing almost
pointlank, as well as by long range
naval guns which searched the posi-
tions far and near. And then the in
fantry advanced.
Up over the plateau the infantrymen
went towards Juvigny and across the
lttle railroad running north and
south. The Germans immediately be-
gan to employ the tactics of similar
retreats. leaving their rear defended
by a line of machine guns hidden be-
hind every clump of brush, promon-
tory and woods, Only few detach-
ments of infantry We're left, the enemy
again adopting measures calculated to
save the most men possible.
From Couronne woods and another
little wood standing like selitinels be-
tween Juvigny and the American lines
the German guns delivered a deadly
cross-fire. Juvogny is only a village.
but located along the side of hill, it
offered a peculiar opportunity for de-
6ense, until the advancing forces NOV
ed in to positions from which they
were able to make it untenable. The
then stopped, the Germans
retiring further east into more bro
ken ground.
The frontage assigned to the Amer !
leans was less than two miles. That |
part in which Juvigny is located was
the scene of a dramatic tank drive. |
Under the cover of artillery, the light |
French tanks flirted along both sides |
of the path up to the little place,
down one machine gun nest
after another in spite of the employ
ment by the Germans of their new
tank gun, SORT OF super-mauSer. This
gun is virtually identical with the
except that it fires bullet a
little more than half an inch in diam
ster. This, it is calculated, can pierce
he tank and possibly injure some vi
al part of the engine. But in the path
,f the advancing machines, there now
lie broken or smashed into the earth
scores of these guns.
There is unquestioned mastery of
he air by the Allies along this front
Only few prisoners are reported
is yet, the Germans apparently see
ng to it that only machine gun crews
hould be sacrificed. I.

In Giles county, this silo 28 by IA

September "a to 27, 1917. The recon-
mendations found in Publication 26 of

we're followed. The cost of the struc-
ture, including two feet of under
ground work, was $110. 1t was filed
October s, using mixture of three
parts corn and one part sorghum.
Mr. Blackburn fed 2S steers, begin

out on grass, finished off on corn, and
marketed June 1, 1918.
Mr. Blackburn thinks so we'll of the
