French CAPTURE Servon


With the French Army in France,
Sept. 27.-French troops attacked in
the Champagne in thick fog on Il
wide front after a period of artillery
preparation which terminated in an
hour of most intense gunfire
The early indications were that the
attack was progressing most favor
ably 7zzz.-zzsza--s
The French fourth army has taken
SerEen, which has been i'm Germaa
hands since 1914, and Navarin farm, a
strong position around which there
has been much violent fighting.
A drive nOrthward In Champagne
threatens the communication lines in
the rear of the Hindenburg defense
system. where the Germans are strug-
Cling to keep the British and French
from breaking through.
Military critics have pointed out
that the Champagne front was the
logical place where an allied effort
intended to destroy the effectiveness
Of the Hindenburg line could he made.
For some distance east of Rheims the
terrain is fairly level and open and
an advance of some distance here
would outflank Laon and possibly ST
Quentin.
More important still, such an ad-
vance would sever the communication
lines eastward from Laon, the pivot
Of the German defenses between
Rheims and Ypres. An allied break
through might separate the German
forces in the west from two groups.
Renewed German attacks north of the
Aisne have been repulsed, the Paris
war office also reports. At one point
where the Germans panied foOthold
upon the French positions they were
ejected by a counter attack.

SEVEN YOUNG LADIES
ENLIST AS NURSES
Are Now Awaiting Orders to go in
Training - Dorchester is Third
Among Counties of Maryland.

! In the recent drive to secure vol
unteers for the Student Nurses Re
serve Corps, Dorchester enrolled sew
en- young women, who have been ac-
cepted and are now awaiting orders.
Dorchester's contribution placed he1
third among the counties of the
State. and the Eastern Shore con-
tributed 63 per cent of Maryland's S
appOrtiOnment.
The following are the volunteers:
Miss Anna Kirwan, Lloyds.
Miss Angie Chappell, Cambridge.
Miss Imogene Seward, Stewards.
Miss Isabelle Hanna, Cambridge.
Miss Ida Virginia Hastings, Hur-
/ lock
Miss Belle Andrews, Cambridge.
Miss Drusilla Phillips, Cambridge.
According to Mrs. Charles E. E'U-
cCtt, State Chairman of the U. S. Stu
dent Nurse Reserve, another drive
lCr the registration and enlistment of
student nurses will be started immt-
;tlately. There are still many your 6
women in Dorchester county who
should enlist, and for this purpose
the recruiting office at the new Ar
mory will be re-opened at once.
Mrs. Ellicott's explanation Of The
closing of the drive, and of its sub
sequent reopening in Maryland, is
hat, in both instances, she has been
acting under direct instructions from
Washington.
The explanation made by the au-
1horities in Washington is as fol-
lows:
By August 81, the Council of Ma
tional Defense had received word
from so many of the States that they
had enrolled student nurses in ey-
cess of their quota and that they Felt
confident that the entire $4,000 stu
dent nurses must then be in the pro-
blanks They had received, however,
only 1000 completed application
blanks, a number insufficient to fill
he vacancies in the fall classes. They
therefore sent the following telegram
TO Maryland, and to each of the 9TH
er States: Intensive campaign far
recruiting student nurses should
close September 5, so that applicants
may be graded and assigned for the
TALL term" This was to impress on
The state divisions the necessity for
securing these completed application
blanks, and did not mean to infer
that all efforts to secure recruits in
the U. S Student Nurse Reserve
should cease on that date, but only
that the intensive campaign might
close in order to stimulate applicants
to send in their completed blanks.
Maryland is far behind its quota
Of Student Nurses. The quota for
Baltimore and all of the counties is
80. So far only 123 completed ap-
plications have been sent in to
Washington, or less than 25 per
cent. The quota of Baltimore city
alone is 120. of which 81 have been
supplied, or less than % per cent.
With the exception of Montana. no
State has sent to Washington appli-
cation blanks to the amount assign
ed it. Many other States have re-
ported that their enrolment exceed
ed their quota, but application blanks
