At last came Foch's counter-offensiye,
and the Americans began to appear in
force. They were under French generals,
as Mangin's fine letter to them shows,
but still they were in large units, and
were fighting as Independently as is con
ceiyable in present circumstances.
Probably most Of us, when we read
General Mangin's letter had an unex-
pressed wish in our hearts that before
long our men could be addressed in this
way by an American commander. 1t
didn't seem possible that this could come
at once, because at this distance it is
hard to visualize the organization of a
complete American army in France, espe.
cially in the midst Of what is really a
single great battle. But the thing has
been done. Our first American army is
organized. II has its own part of the

Three small pigs, part of a win-the-

escape in the cleaning last evening

effected a capture in front Of Mrs. G. J..

the equilibrium Of shoppers uptown and
when it disappeared between the Gordon

The number of prisoners had not

so that Serbian military and govern

in which they had been living.
But. unfortunately for the Bulga-
