settle down comfortably in your sea,
and see her come romping across the
stage with her rollicking Hello!
Everybody" This month she sings
for Columbia a song that with all its
humor, has a bit of sound advice to a
| certain named William who lives in
Berlin. The song is 'Regretful Blues,
sung as only Nora Bayes can sing it.

Squawkin, have you ever heard
words so perfectly sing themselves
Well, that's the way 1.-THE Yanks

the end. You simply can't help catch
ing the lifting melody-any more than
you can help laughing over the catchy,
clever words. 1t is one of the features
of Columbia's June group of records.
Another record from this list which
stands out for sparkling humor is I'm
in Love-" sung by Gus Van. When
a man gets as far gone as Mr.. Van ap-
pears to have gotten, one would think
his prediciment anything but funny
yet there is a scream of laughter in
every line.
Another debut to Columbia's credit!
This month it is Van and Schenck,
perhaps the most popular male team
on the vaudeville circuit. Everybody
knows their rollicking harmony-ex-
pressed in songs that are always hits.
This month they sing I'm the Land o
Yamo Yamo"-a record you will
surely want.
Annie Rooney" After the Ball."
Sweet Rosie O'Grady"-can you read
these titles without a surge of fond
memories? They are only three of
twelve beautiful old-time songs that
have ben put on a single Columbia
Record this month-to waltz time, and
played by Princes Band. Here is
dance music plus!
Forty-five sparkling numbers COM
prise the June list of Columbia re-
cords. Straccairi sings wonderful
bit from "Traviata," and Mr. Stransky
leads the Philharmonic through the

hit. and so on down the list of famous
artists, popular entertainers, instru-
mental and vocal selections.

German Officer Captured in st. Mihiel

Paris, Friday, Sept l3-The first

The wounded men in talking Of the en-
gagement described the fighting as Of
the severest sort, especially in the dense
woods scattered about the salient and
also along the railroad line. Scarcely
two hours after the attack was launched
the Germans started counter attack
with three divisions which, however,
were unable to stop the American ad-

SPEED OF DRIVE
SURPRISING
In View of Fact That Seven
German Divisions OPP
posed Americans
AMERICAN OFFICIALS
TALK OF NEXT MOVE
Anxiously Await News of
the Extent of Booty
Secured

Washington, D. c., Sept. l4-With
the st. Mihiel salient wiped out by Gen.
eral Pershing's army, interest of officials
here was divided to-day between the
next probable move by the American
forces and the amount Of booty that had
fallen to them in the short time required
for the accomplishment of the first task
assigned them as an independent operat-
ing army.
Latest reports from the front did not
make il clear whether the Americans
and the supporting French forces had
halted on new line in the shape of
bow from Fresnes to the Moselle river
at Pagny, where the German border was
in sight, or still were pushing the en-
emy.
The speed with which the Americans
from the south and those advancing
from the west made a juncture some
twelve miles northeast of St. Mihiel was
surprising in view of the fact that no
less than seven German divisions op.
posed them. That many divisions were
identified by the prisoners taken, which
General Pershing reported last night
numbered $4,000
