YOUR DUTY TO THE WAR
CRIPPLE

Fl The. cripple is not helpless bul

Idleness is the calamity too great

needs is the chance to work, and the
encourag cement to take advantage Of

thing possible to make the cripple

The cripple needs thorough train

supply for the returning soldiers,
but the responsibility for making

You can help to make life worth

Enormous Sum Which Ger

LONDON. Oct. 2l.--Some OF the items
which figure on Germany's bill in Bel
GUM are given as follows from an Of
fetal Belgian source:
Local contributions and fines levied
by Germany on Belgium in 1914, siO,-
600 900.
War contributions from November.
1914. to October, 1916, s192, 100000.

Der of the current year. SIS. 000. 900.
Raw materials and machinery taken
by the Germans were reckoned by them
in January. 1915. at $500. 100000. The
damage to December, 1914, estimated by
the North Germon Gazette. amounted to
81. 900, 10000 This makes a grand to-
tai of 81, 1921. 10000

oned at more than billion dollars. Dur

men to the number OF 1850 were de-

OFFICIAL REPORTS
OF THE FIGHTING
British Gain on Both Sides of
Volenciennes.

LONDON, Oct 2l.-Follotoin1 are the
official reports Of operations in France
and Belgium. as issued BY the several
,1Gr offices:
BRITISH (NIGHT)-purlng the
night and early morning. there was
sharp fighting for possession OF the
village Of Amerval. which we captured
during our attack yesterday. Deter
mined attacks to regain the village
were repulsed.
Early this morning the enemy made
an unsuccessful attempt to drive in
our advanced troops In the neighbour
hood of the Cambrai-Bavay road. We
took few prisoners. East and north
of Denain our progress has continueS
in the face OF considerable opposition.
We are less than two miles from
Valenciennes and have reached the
general line La Sentinelle-St. Amand-
Ronge- Taintegnies. We hold the west
bank Of the Scheldt at and several
miles north of Pont-a-Chin, north
west Of Journal.
BRITISH 1DAY)-The number of
prisoners captured by us in the opera
ton yesterday north OF lie Cateau now
exceeds 5000. The enemy positions
along the River Selle were of great
natural strength and we're held with
resolution.
The attack was launched by Eng
lish, Scottish and Welsh divisions at
o'clock In the morning under most I'M
favorable weather conditions, con-
tinuous rain rendering the advance ex-
tremely difficult. The fighting was
heavy throughout the day, the enemy
offering strong resistance In the VII
lagos and along the line OF the railway.
In overcoming this resistance great
assistance was rendered at certain
points by tanks, which, despite the
flooded state Of the river. succeeded
in passing to the east bank at an early
hour.
AS soon as the line of the river was
secured a number of bridges were rap
idly constructed under heavy fire
from the hostile artillery and machine
guns, enabling our guns TO push for
ward close behind the advancing in
fantry and to afford them effective
support at short range. During the
evening certain points at which parties
of the enemy were still resisting were
cleared up by local operations, and a
counter attack from the region OF Ro-
meries was beaten of with heavy loss.
North of Domain our advance troops
continued to push forward In contact
with the enemy and are approaching
the village of st. Armand and the line
Of the Scheldt north of Journal.
