rection of Rheims. Although In these
attacks the enemy is still using large
electives and great numbers of guns,
he Is being held almost everywhere
from further progress and on various
sectors compelled to assume the de-
fensive against vicious blows deliv-
cred by the Americans, French and
British troops.
Near the Veuilly wood, which lies
northwest of Chateau Thierry, and at
the point where the drive has
brought the enemy nearest Paris, the
Americans have beaten off a strong
German attack. and on the Marine at
Jaulgonne. some six miles northeast
Of Chateau Thierry, fighting shoulder
to shoulder with the French, they
have aided in forcing the first con.
tingent Of the enemy to cross the
Marine again to seek refuge on the

SAW POINT OF RESEMBLANCE

A fond auntie was left to amuse her
small niece and nephew while their
mother went shopping. James became
deeply interested in his toy engine and
tiny Ruth was absorbed in watching
auntie cut out beautiful paper dolls.
One Of these appealed to her particu-
larly and she would scarcely wait for
auntie to finish.
"Oh. auntie, isn't she pretty? She's
blue"
Eyes, she is lovely. And see what
a faicy dress she has on. Look at her
long train"
The last word caught serious-mind.
ed James attention.
"Auntie, show me the train"
Auntie pointed to the deep founce
which was set on with large plaits and
which was long enough at the back for
quite a sweep. James took 1t in his
hands and examined 1t closely and ST.
lently for a few moments. Handing
1t back, he said solemnly:
II suppose you could call 1t train.

Reports from survivors who were
aboard the vessels also established the
fact that during the day at least two

Mothers Day Proclamation

State of Arizona, Executive Depart ment.
 Since our Country has entered upon he war for the freedom of the world, have made many calls upon the peo- pie of this state appealing to their patriotism and often to their generOs- ity. The response has always been immediate and spontaneous. And so in making this proclamation it is with the feeling and the hope that the answer will come from every corner, from every home, and from every heart in the State.
 The second Sunday in May has for the past few years come to be accept ed as MOTHERS DAY. This year it seems that every day is MOTHERS DAY. The soldier goes to his duty tuned to the excitement of the hour and the companionship of his fellow soldiers; the wage-earner goes to his work with the firm determination to do ms uCnOSI, put ILS ulOIHGR must stay at home-with her many duties, to be sure-but always with the solitary thought that the lives she has brought into the world are somewhere on the field of battle. Here is the real-the greatest-sacrifice All that can sus- tain her is the belief, the surety, that the sacrifice she makes will insure for the mothers of tomorrow a world made free for the bearing of their children. Therefore, with prayer in our hearts and smile of comfort on our lips, 1 ask the people of Arizona to dedicate the 18th day of May to the mothers. May God bless them and keep them.
 In'Witness Whereof, 1 have hereuntO set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed.
 Done at Phoenix, the Capitol, this 9th day of April, A. D., 1918.

Victory Gardens Help
 the Farmer.

LAAO CAA AAA(A America can feed the world.
 Food will win the war.
 But the farmers cannot do it all, for the labor situation is serious. It is an economic waste to plant thousands of acres unless ihere is labor to reap the harvests.
 Therefore the home garden, yourS Victory Garden must be planted to a greater extent than eyer before.
 And this planting must be done as efficiently, as economically, as expertly as possible.
 Remember you have no control over the price or supply of any thing which you do not personal ly produce.
 Your Liberty Garden, properly planted will mean better living, a very important reduction in your household expenditures and more food for our boys at the front.
 If you have not already done so get your seeds today.
 Get them in the ground as soon as weather conditions will permit. Now is the time to act; get started with your Liberty Gal den.

Nutrioso Notes

The citizens of Nutrioso have proven themselves loyal Amerl- cans by buying Liberty Bonds doubling their quota. which was S4OO.O0. There was S900.00 worth bought in our little town-and by people, too, who couldn't afford it, as the term goes. Neither could we afford to let others bear the burdens of this great war which we feel as deeply interest ed in as other true patriots. Be- sides there is such a thing as stacking, you know, and who is the greater stacker, the man who hesitateS to sacrifice his life for liberty or the one who hesitates to sacrifice a little convenience in helping furnish the war? Mrs. Mary A. Love, Marcellus HUlsey and Willard Hamblin was the committee who canvassed the town and surrounding ranches in the interest of the Liberty Bond.
