ARMY DEFENSE
American Engineers Aided in

Amiens.
tBy Associated Press,

LONDON, April 1O.--But for the
gallant defense put up by General
Carey's improvised army, in which
American railway engineers played a
prominent part, says the correspond
ent on the western front of the Daily
Mail. the enemy might have pushed
through to Amiens in the first few
days of his great attack. The i'm
provised force held an important
stretch of the front against furious
German onslaughts.
There was no doubt in anybody's
mind that they would hold on grimly
as long as breath remained in their
bodies" says the correspondent. How
the men were assembled before day
light, made up into companies and
battalions by noon and ready to
march shortly afterward is told by
the correspondent, Who adds:
at was not until it had been in the
field for some time that the. force was
able to get artillery But soon as
they had it, they certainly used it to
good advantage.
'In the beginning, however, it was
the men who held the enemy back,
with their bodies"
The sector involved began at the
river Somme near Sailly-Laurette and
extended southwest to about the Luce
river.

by angry Irish members. A test of
strength soon developed when Joseph
Devlin, nationalist, moved motion to

closure on his motion and then ad-

War Gardens are Not
Seriously Hurt by
Snow Says Murphy

War gardens will not be seriously
affected by the cold weather and
snow. according to City Gardener
Murphy.
Where peas have been planted, the
weather may injure them," said Mr..
Murphy, "but the cold will have no
effect on lettuce and onions. The
snow does not harm the vegetables. as
long as it does not freeze"
According to Mr.. Murphy. the effect
on the gardens might have been much
more serious had the cold weather
arrived two or three weeks later, when
vegetables had begun to spout. A
number of people have planted onions,
potatoes, radishes, lettuce and peas
but in most cases the vegetables are
not yet through the ground and will
not be affected. The cold may retard
the growth of the potatoes that have
been planted, Mr.. Murphy said, but
will not injure them.
