Possible Lines of Retreat.

For the army on the Oise the possible
lines OF retreat are through Laon, Marie
and Berbins to Hirson. The next army
also would retreat to Hlrson by railroad
and highway. This army also might
withdraw by rail to Rozoy. From the
Aisne sector there is no obvious line Of
retirement except one light railway
which runs from Scissors to within four
miles of Rozoy. The next two armies
would make for Mezieres, and then for
Sedan. up the valley OF the Meuse. On
this route there is one railway. but the
road Is rather winding,
II does not look like the means of re-
tirement are any too extensive for the
traffic they will have TO carry and in
view OF the fact that all the roads con-
verge. With the Allied armies In close
touch with their rear guard the Ger
mans would not find 1t particularly easy
TO get all their troops and supplies out
OF the angle OF the salient In spite OF
the great skill with which German COM
manders have conducted previous re-
treats.

slider without undue optimism that the

Of the character OF the country. A few
miles further east the Aisne Canal has
been crossed at Nillers
The general feeling is that the enemy
is on the point OF falling back on a wide

at many points OF which resistance has
been determined East of Liry, which
has been captured by the French and

now cleared OF the enemy.

Power of Resistance wancs.

In front OF the Chemin des Danes
and at many other places opposite our
front the enemy has posted machine
guns with the idea OF delaying our ad-
vance as long as possible, but that there
will be any definite check seems alto
gether unlikely At the same time the
retreat is being conducted in good order,
though not without serious losses in
prisoners and guns.
As yet there is no question OF rout
but the enemy's power of resistance is
becoming appreciably less. 1t is, how
ever. approaching the time when the
character of the retreat will change, The

into immense sallents, the st. Gobain

German armies and parts Of two others.

of Ohio to preach Importance of the

ernment's War Savings plan.
This request is in keeping with the
plan Of the Ohio War Savings CON-
mittee to employ every available
agency in disseminating information
concerning the necessity of genuine
participation in the War Savings
plan. I'VE are asking you, wherever
possible, to include in your sermons
or addresses a few words telling Of

clergy of all creeds are advised by
the state committee
"The United States wishes to mo-
biliZe all the women, all the children,
all the wage earners, and everyone
who can not go to the front into a
great Thrift Army, to back up the
men in tne trenches" the ministers
are told. 1--WE are calling upon you

Is that q person agree to buy, during

War Savings Stamps.
People of Ohio can't duplicate, any
place, the chance to buy $1,000 of
such irst.grade security for 1926"
Director H. P. Wolfe of the Ohio War
Savings committee says in state
ment issued from headquarters. And
the significant feature of such pur-
chase is that the increase in, value of
the War Savings Stamps is guaran-
teed by the government. At maturity,
Jan. 1, 1923, the purchaser will get
$1,000 in cash on surrender of his
War Savings Certificates"
The Thousand Dollar War Savings
Club" idea is spreading to many sec
tions>of tre state. In Holmes county
Chairman Charles f. Cary has IA
charter members of such a club; he
expects to secure 100.
The Thousand Dollar" idea is he
ing carried still further in some COM
munities. Organization of Five Hun
dred Dollar Clubs" and "One Hundred
Dollar Clubs" is being perfected in
many localities.
Impression prevails in some com
munities that the War Savings plan
is only for children and those in mod
crate circumstances" the state CON-
! mittee says. This is not the case.
The government thinks so we'll Of it's
savings plan that it limits participa
tiqn. No person can own more than
$1,000, maturity value, of these
stamps. First of all, the United

Russian Floors.

The finest floors are said to be seen
in Russian houses. For those of the
highest grade, tropical woods are ex-
clusively employed. Fir and pine are
never used, as in consequence of their
sticky character they attract and re-
tain dust and dirt, and thereby soon
become blackened. Pitch pine, too, is
likely to shrink, even after being well
seasoned. The mosaic wood floors in
Russia are often of extraordinary
beauty.
