throughout the forces which are re-
tiring.
The eastward flank of the Allies
is showing wonderful tenacity, not
only preventing the Germans from
advancing, but even counter attack
ing and retaking important points.
Officers and men at these critical
periods participate in all the dan
gers of personal combat, in which
the enemy has lost fearfully.
The fanlike formation of the
enemy movement was pushed out on
the sides and in the centre yesterday,
covering more territory. The Allies
are falling back slowly before enor-
mously greater numbers.
Fresh Troops Brought Up
Aviators report great activity on
the roads all along the rear of the
German advanced forces, as fresh
enemy divisions are hurried forward
to take the place of exhausted units,
The Allied airmen are doing splendid
work, harassing the German rein
forcements and supply columns by
making attacks from low attitudes
with machine guns. The German
aviators are very numerous in this
region and aerial combats are occur
ring constantly
In the central part of the battle
front the enemy, finding that before
him were only tired troops which had
fought day and night since Monday,
was able to make another leap for
ward toward the Marine by penetrat-
ing the thin Allied line with bodies of
selected men armed with light ma
chine guns.
Purely an Infantry Fight
The battle has now developed al
most purely into an infantry fight.
The artillery in action appears to be
only of about the same amount as is
usual on q quiet sector.
South of Scissors the enemy at
tempted renewal of his push, but
came in contact with French troops.
which thrust him back. notwith-
standing his employment of numer-
Gus tanks The French here exc
cuted a vigorous counter attack,
which caused great confusion and
losses to German battalions and
made the enemy hesitate. No prog
ress was made.
Rely Upon Numbers
In the centre the Germans are
placing great faith in their immense
superiority of numbers. An added
advantage is that they carry num-
Der of light and heavy machine guns.
They evidently are abundantly sup
piled with ammunition as they kept
their guns going at all times. Vile
en-Tardienois was target for the
few cannon they were able to carry
forward with them during their
rapid advance. Their incendiary
shells started fire in that town, or
its immediate vicinity, as the cor
respondent saw large clouds of smoke
there, while frequently shrapnel
burst overhead.
Further eastward, in the vicinity
| OF Rheims, where the united French
and British columns are resisting,
the enemy appears unable to make
! any advance, except when the Allies
are ready to recede to readjust their
line when neighboring troops fall
back. ~

$500 RAISED FOR
BELGIAN BABIES

The five thousand bouquets of forget
me-nots which were to have been sold
for the Belgian children's relief fund
Saturday, we're delivered at the Com
mercial club rooms late Monday after
noon. Although Mr.. Ullman, secre-
tary of the club, and instigator of the
campaign, has not definitely decided
upon a plan for disposing Of them, he
stated Tuesday morning that they
probably will be held for another sale
within the next few weeks in order
that the fund may be raised to at
least one thousand dollars.
Practically all the citys which have
sold the Belgian Baby" forget-me-
nots have turned in to Washington
amounts ranging from three to seven
ty-five thousand dollars, and since the
Richmond children made such ire
mendous successful sale with the
scraps of anything and everything
which they hastily gathered together.
it Is scarcely fair to the reputation or
the city to turn in six hundred dollars
when the real boquets are here waiting
to be sold.
Although complete reports even yet
have not been made, $671.00 was de-
posted in a local bank Monday, and as
soon as the bills, amounting to $66.19
can be checked out, the money will be
forwarded to Major Leon Osterreith,
the Belgian Military Minister in Wash
ington, who sends it directly to the
Belgian queen.
The winners of the prizes, which will
be silk Belgian flags. have not yet
been decided but will be announced
later this week.

Opposing reduction of the minimum
draft ages, Senator Kirby said he be-

Here is told how to prepare an in
expensive lemon lotion which can be
used to bring back to any skin the
sweet freshness of which it has been
robbed by trying atmospheric condi-

small jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth SO no
lemon pulp gets in, then this lotion
will keep fresh for months. Every
woman knows that lemon juice is used
to bleach and remove such blemishes
as freckles, sallowness and tan, and
is the ideal skill softener, smoothener
and beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any pharmacy and
two lemons from the grocer and make
up a quarter pint of this sweetly fra
grant lemon lotion and massage it
daily into the face, neck, arms and
hands, and see for yourself.-Adv.

Over millions bowed down,
While you gamble their blood and

No doubt they will wonder some too.
