THE FL Paso people are not respond
L ing as rapidly as had been hoped
for in their donations for the Christ
mas boxes to be sent to the men over
seas who would otherwise receive
no Christmas cheer This is probably
due to the fact that the Christmas
spirit has not yet been felt by the
people here at home. However. the
boxes should be sent by the goth Of
this month II they are to reach the
men in the service by Christmas. And
when the Christmas days arrive, many
mothers and sisters will be very dis
appointed that they did not respond
to the call and so make the day hap
pied for some OF the brave youths
in the service, who, after all, are
only grown up boys, who win enjoy
the good cheer as much as they did
when little lads.
It has been suggested that those
who have received labels allowing the
sending OF a box to their own boy, at
the time this box is submitted for
the final inspection, donate the small
sum OF 81 which viii make the son
OF some other mother, perhaps who
has answered the final call, happier.

supervisor Of the Red Cross Gift Shop.

SUMMARY OF The WAR

Comparatively small progress, at
tended by losses described as enor-
nous, is BEING made by the Germans
in their latest efforts 20 break the
allied front in France. The advance
AGAINST the line from Noyon to the
eastern suburbs Of Montdidier, COM
ina quickly after the force of the
offensive on the Aisne had been
spent, has encountered stern resis-
tance and il 10 over comparatively
short section Of the line, that the
enemy has made appreciabie gains.
The deepest penetration reported 60
far 10 approximately two and three
fourths miles.
Il has been believed since the drive
toward Amiens stopped that Gen.
eraI Foch had the greater bulk of his
reserves in or near the area that is
now being attacked. Not only are
these troops within striking distance
of The front, but there are natural
obstacles which will also initiate
against the entire success of the Ger
man assault. The high hills which
now are the scene of heavy fighting
are but outposts of the positions
which are prepared along the Disc
river, which bisects the field upon
which the battle will be fought If
the first lines of defense are over"
whelmed.
The present assault on the line
east of ,Montdidier may be considered
