MILITARY NEWS
By Frederick B. Hertkamp

The fourth drive of the Germans
has come to a complete halt in shorter
time than has any other launched by
them. This had been due to the uni
fled control made possible on the
Western front by the allies in giving
supreme control to General Foch.
The latter part of last week saw the
French successfully driving back the
Hun in the Mont r-Noyon sec
tor and in the region of Chateau
Thierry they recaptured the village OF
Montcourt Southwest of this section
the American Arti1lerymen have been
active.
There is a general feeling prevailing
in military circles that the real big Of
fensiye by the Germans has not really
taken place and such an offensive is
looked for soon aimed either at the
channel ports or at Paris
With the slackening of the offens-
i've on the western front word comes
of activity by the AuStrians in the
Italian Theatre. The new drive COW
cred an area of seventy five miles
along the whole line from the Aslago
Plateau to the sea. The Italians are
aided by French and British forces but
as vet we have an official statement
that no American troops are there. 1t
is the purpose of the Austrians to
cross the Piave River and reach down
into the Venetian plains
American troops have now been
placed in Klsace having already occu-
pied sectors in Lorraine Thus America
will have a direct chance TO fight tor
those sections of the country which
have such an important part to play
and whose fate rests with the outcome
of the present struggle.
Recovering from the first lmpact the
Italians have now turned and have
launched successful counter attacks.
This theatre of the war has been very
inactive and both sides have been
- rsrsrtheninsg their forces for battle
for some time past.

and the president is urging that the
states follow the precedent establish

either go to work or find a branch of
active service with the fighting forces
The results of the law have been most
satisfactory where it has been in
force.
Our Army win have one million men

hundred thousand men were shipped
from our shores to Europe. The size
of the army has been augmented by
the number of new men of the age

thousand
Ireland is smoothing over the con-
scription proposition by adopting the

that England decided not to enforce

distasteful one.
June 28th is War Savings Day.
Special effort win be made all over
the country to increase the sale of
War Saving Certificates and Thrift
Stamps. This is one of the very best
means of saving money, the amount
to be invested ranging from a quarter
to one thousand dollars per person.
Many of the enlisted men have sent
home q War Saving Certificate to the
folks and they have continued to fill
the card for them.

Wind from the Channels reaching water,
Watt me the fragrance of English
Morn on the heath, and a curlew crying
over there 'twiXt the moon and sky;
And an echo, far through the wide waste
hieing,
Land where the fields have friendly
Love ,s0e Of my dreams in sun and rain.
Vernal voices in old sweet places
Call me home with JOY that's pain.
Rain in the trenches. Here men bear
Life with laughter, drop or dare,
Though Mays in the world. All, over
Heathery hills and a blue day gleam-
A deep glen booms with an oceans
Giimpsed for moment seamew
Wheels and dives to an unseen shore.
There's a shy green lane, with the
banks piled high,
Where hazols kiss in the glistening sky,
And gay pr nroses climb and crowd
To the azure zenith like a cloud.
All, JOY amid leaves to loiter along
To the Tilt of stream and Innet's
The breeze laughs in like a TESTERS story
With a seaweed smell; there's lark in
The wlld-rose bursts, and the first Mays
falling;
In a mist of boughs is a cuckoo calling
An echo faint, in the deep wood heard,
Asks at the heart, Is it dream or bird?
There's a wet moss scent from ferny
gloom,
And the lone love-sigh of wind in the
broom;
Then a flash from far, and the hearts
quick rise
Leaps the blue to the brain with a holden
glee!
The earth swoops down from the shining
eyes,
And the sky sweeps up like a wing set
In the INFINITE face of the sudden seal

Incidents in tue LiveS Of
 WOrLd- Famous Women
How Young Woman Saved the Life of Her King
'-~ By ELOISE HARRINGTON

As they laughed and talked a wild Highland war cry was heard in the courtyard. Mingled with the clash of arms and the shouts of the men was the sound of many heavy footsteps.
 The Queen gave a low moan of terror as the King rushed toward the great oaken door to slide the bolt in to place. But the heavy iron bar used to fasten it was missing.
 Terrified. Queen Jane and her la dies urged the King to make his es- cape through the window. James tried to break the iron bars from the open ing. but though he was a man of mar vicious strength they would not even bend. That way, also, was closed to him.
 The angry voices drew nearer and 1,earer. Queen Jane and her maids kuddled in a corner, trembling and ZIG bbing. Only Catherine Douglas re- mained calm, trying her utmost to help the King | As James looked about hopelessly, she sprang to the door, and throwing the weight ot her body against it. thrust her lovely white arm through the iron loops made for the bolt.
 Hurry, sir! There's no time to |, SC! You must pry open the floor and i escape through the passage under ground. Hurry! I beg of you!" she cried. as again the Highland war cry sounded, this time within the castle.
 James's eye fell upon the tongs hanging by the fireplace. SeizIng them, he forced open a plank in the floor and jumped down into the vault below.
 The plank had scarcely fallen back Into place again when the 300 High ! .anders rushed into the corridor. | With blanched cheel-s and eyes brilliant with the spirit of loyalty. Catherine Douglas braced herself against the door and sbravely tried to keep the traitors back. They broke the delicate white arm as they forced their way into the room, but not murmur of pain escaped her lips. The armed men swar'ned in, but sne smiled as they searched through cup boards and wardrobes and under touches and beds for the King Al last, maddened by disappointment ana anger, they gave up their frultless search and left the wrecked room much to the relief of it's terror-strick- en inmates.
 Then only did the Lady Catherine
 Douglas sink fainting to the floor as she said, revently: '1Thank God! the King is safe!"
 Catherine Douglas, because of this brave deed, was ever afterward loV' ingly called Catherine Barlass.

MOTOR HATS HAVE BEAUTY AND
 UTILITY

The motor hat is no longer the hat from which utility banishes beauty. Even the very practical headWear has it's charm and almost any one or the small street hats shown for hrst spring wear might be pressed into service for motoring if supplemented by proper yelling.
 For that matter, the motor veil itself is not the tyranL it once was. IL is still necessary as protection from dust on long trips over dusty roads; but for ordinary purposes a woman is very likely to adjust an invisible net over her hair for the sake of comfort as well as trimness, put on any small street or sport hat that Will stick to the head and has no trim ming that will be damaged by blow ing and consider herself ready for motoring so far as head covering goes.
 Satin models and little shapes made entirely from ribbon are shown III countless variety, some of the best being new version of the visor cap, which, at it's most extreme, is a fright, but which is susceptible or delightful treatment. A soft. rather small beret crown-one cannot lose | that much-abused .beret-mounted on 1 @ straight band much higher on the | one side than on the other and far | ing out ever so slightly at the bottom in front to suggest visor and relieve the hard. straight line against the | forehead, is fashioned entirely of ] narrow overlapping lines of soft, ] grosgrain ribbon.
 l Another, also of narrow ribbon, has a rather high and narrow crown widening out toward the top and a narrow brim running visorlike across the front. A bow of the narrow rlb-
 bons was posed on the front of the | crown.
 A middy hat of stitched black satin yelled in beige has a strap of black satin holding the veil across the front, like a half band around the hat, and a black pompon posed
 outside the veil on the top of the low
 crown.
 All the small turban shapes are practical for the car, because they stay on we'll and veil easily, but a
 bit of brim in front, at least, does help in motoring. and many women
 insist upon brim really wide enough
 to shade the eyes.

Since a tunic overskirt is out of the question, we'll make a plain pleated skirt with a box pleat in front" she said, cutting off the lenghts of silk serge.
 From the remainder of the material Madame planned the/ waist, cutting the long, kimono sleeves in one with i the bodice. The sleeves are quite wide about the hands, and, calling Miss Westley from the workroom, Madame directed her to finish them with narrow, turned-back cuffs of the materials bordered with a narrow edging of dark blue worsted embroid- cry.
 After basting the seams of the bod ice and skirt together Miss Wesley fitted them on me, according to Madame's directions. She made a box pleat in the front of the bodice to correspond with the skirt, so there would be a long line from the base of the neckline to the hem. Then she arranged a pleat at each side of the box pleat and softly bloused the bodice at the waistline. After Madame had studied the lines she said:
 Have some small buttons of the gray serge made and embroider them with blue wool. Use them to outline each side of the box pleat from the collar to the hip line.
 Cut the neck trif1e lower and make a round. fiat collar, not more than three and one-half inches wide. to finish it. Make sure that it fits perfectly over the shoulders, and trim it with a border embroidered to match the cuffs
 If there's enough material left make g. long girdle instead of a belt. It should be long enough to wrap twice about the waist and to have ends to extend below the knees. In stead of using tassels of wool fringe trim the ends of the girdle with cuff like ornaments of the same material bordered with the wool embroidery. | Close the frock at one side under the edge of the box pleat."
 After the second fitting I remarked to Madame that the frock was very l like monks habit, and when ! slipped it on today before Miss Gra- ham was due for a finished fitting she agreed with me.
 I haven't as striking coIoring as Miss Graham, yet the stone-gray frock in spite of it's severe lines was partic- ularly becoming, and not a bit old. Womany.
 I've discovered that whether color is youthful or old depends entirely upon the color of the. hair and the complexion of the weaE-.

who were fine were considered, since they were to be the constant compan- ions of the young Queen. The fairest of these ladies was Catherine Douglas, who, on account of her cleverness, tact and charming manner, soon be- came Queen James most intimate friend.
 Although life at court was gay and free from care, the Queen and Lady Catherine knew that the King had many enemies, and were in constant fear for his safety.
 Rival factions tried to seize the reigns of government and would stoI at nothing to accomplish their end.

vALUEOFEXERCISE ID TIE GIRLS
 WHO W'ORK

Periods of mental activity are bene- ficial for every one. If adhered to too closely, however, without any break of physical exercise they even- tually prove very harmful.
 "All work and no play" has always resulted in Jill becoming dull girl
 Exercise is excellent for all of us, but it is an absolute essential for that individual who does mental la bor, confined in an office during the day.
 1 Every girl wants to keep her com plexion clear and her eyes bright and every woman over the girl limit will strive her hardest to retain her youthful appearance. | And this may best be accomplished 1 by taking certain periods during each day for exercise and relaxation. | Calisthenics taken the early morning do much to keep up the general health.
 Standing, warmly but loosely clad at an open window and inhahng deep breaths of fresh air, will stimulate 1 the blood very quickly.
 This might be followed with two or three easy exercises.
 One might consist of doubling the fists, placing them at the shoulders and then trusting them aut at arms length swiftly.
 After that it would be we'll to bend trying to touch to the floor with the finger tips without bending the knees
 These calisthenics might be conclud- led with a final one of kneeling ant binding toward the floor from the waist.
 The whole performance need no ltawe more than five minutes, and vii ldo more to make circulation hvel1 and muscles in good condition thar Iany amount of medicine.

Madame and were looking over the materials, hunting for something suitable for one-piece frock for Miss Graham. Worsted materials being barred, we had spread the different silk weaves of a heavy quality over the long table.
 That gray silk serge seems to be the best for the type of frock I want to resign for Miss Graham. Her coloring is vivid enough to stand stone gray" commented Madame.
 In measuring the length she found there was just enough for a simple, one-piece dress.
