LIBERTY LOAN

$104,500 in pledges. This added Il
the amount of $2o0.350 received on
the previous days drive makes the
total s3o4.s50. which is most encour-
aging. An appeal is made to the
people to meet the solicitors with q
glad hand and do the very best they
can. Due to the lack Of public
meetings, largely, the workers are
rather handicapped in their work and
it is necessary for folks to pledge and
pledge freely and quickly all they can
in order to reach the mark. With
the cooperation it is expected
that Waterville will go over the top
at the time set for the move and pos
sibly before that. On Friday the
Boy Scouts will take up the work.
The campaign is progressing.

ceny OF dress suit case, two promis-
sorry notes and an axe. Cecil Cooley

spondent was not guilty.

Mt them with an air rife. In the

STUBBORN RESISTANCE
BY ENEMY ON SUIPPE
AND NORTH OF ARNES

With the French Army in Champagne
Oct. Shy the Associated Press). The
battle of Champagne is going on with
increasing intensity today from the
Aisne in the region of Naux les Morron,
which was ia en- this morning by the
French, to the suippe river at Bazan-
court, which is evidently attacked BY
the Germans.
North of St. Etienne on the Arnes riv-
err the enemy made a vigorous assault
upon the positions won by Cen Gour-
auds men Tuesday but without other
result than to increase largely the Ger
man casualties
notwithstanding, the stubborn cpposi-
ton the enemy is Offering on the Suippe
and north of the Arnes. the impression
still is that he is merely seeking to gain
time to reduce the difficulties Of retreat,
the extent of which in view OF the devel-
opments on the extreme left wing of the
fighting front it is impossible to fore
cast
The vigor and perseverance Of the Al
lied pressure appears to have deranged
all the German plans. Nowhere have
the Germans with all their genius In or
Ranization. been able to prepare a sta
BILE position upon which their defeated
troops could retire in security. which
suggests that they again have erred in
their Judgment OF the strength and en-
durance of the Entente Allied fighting
forces.
Unless by supreme effort and utilz-
