reminiscent of the long months of
trench raiding which preceded the
present offensive.
Hindenburg apparently is content
to hold on to what he has won until
he can bring up his heavy artillery
and allow some of his worst shattered
divisions to recuperate. The Germans
even continue to construct trenches at
several points in their lines

Reverence for Banner Shown.
ny PAUL AYREs ROCKWELL.

When the last company of legion
natres had passed Gen. Dogan APP
preached and kissed the 1egion's flag.
Immediately Col. Rollet was sur
rounded by thronG of women and
= children who embraced the banner
with affection and reverence. The
legion's band began playing La Mar
seillaise." and the refrain was taken
up by 4 group of old men, some of
them veterans of the war of 1870.
1t was an emotional hour and the
giadness of the Lorrainers was so
plainly genuine that every spectator
felt a lump in his throat and no one
remained dry-eyed. The sadness was
increased by the appearance of sew
eral score of British soldiers who
four days previously had been re-
leased from captivity in Germany.
These men were in a terrible con-
dition. All had been captured by
the Germans this year and forced to
labor long and hard without suitable
food. Last Thursday they were lib
Grated without food. money or warm
clothing. They were told that the
war was ended and that they would
have to get home as best they could.
For four days they had been walk
ing toward France. being welcomed
all the way by the Lorrainers. who
shared their own meager rations with
them. Gen. Dogan procured army
automobiles and sent the weakened
Tommies to Nancy. where arrange
ments are being made for their re-
kpatriation.
