t0 when he declared that the self made
partnership of the kaiser and his
"Gott" had gone awry.
Taking the situation as a whole,
March pointed out that the Germans
had made bold decision for retirement
relying on the cove. If night and the
seclusion Of smoke clouds to hids their
withdrawal.
This decision had been taken when
tho important communication line from
Soissons to Chateau-Thierry was appar.
ent destined to fall into allied hands.
Between the Marne and Rheims, on
the east flank, the enemy has been push
ed back from one and one half to two
miles, along a ten mile front, he said.
Along the Marine itself, the Americans
and French have crossed the river at a
number of points and now hold posses
sior there.
The response of the Germans to
Foch 8 counter offensive was to throw
a large number of reserve divisions,
which had not been used when the Ger
man drive for Rheims started.
1T is the belief of General March
that fifteen reserve divisions were thus
used.
The advance of the allies for the last
few days has been practically steady.
March pointed out there is only one
rail line over which the Germans can
retreat, though they may have con-
strucied in addition some small, tenn
porary field railroads.
The enemy's retreat was necessary if
he did not wish to be caught in poek-
It at the mercy Of the allies, March de-
elared
The ground gained in the Franco
American counter drive is about equal
to the territory the allies lost in Flan-
ders last April, March revealed.
AS for the Montdidier attack, March
said it was not Of essential Importance

battery positions. The gunners were
afraid of hitting their own infantry.
German prisoners admitted their sur
prise at finding themselves opposed by
British soldiers. Many of the German
officers declared they did not know
the allied counter offensive had begun
on the other side of the salient.
General Foch's Strategy
The experience ofSthe British in this
battle, illustrates the versatility of
General F'och's strategy. They were
moved from their previous positions,
some distance away, expecting to go
to the defense of the Marne line. Sud-
denly, they were diverted to their
present positions, arriving on the night
Vt the 10th. They were ordered to at
tack the next morning, at the same
time relieving the Italians, who had
teen holding the Germans successful
ly, but who needed rest
The German 10Th division already
had lost heavily at the hands of the
Italians The British attack completed
the work, almost annihilating it. Only
about 500 men were left. Other divis-
ions badly mauled were the seth, 103d
and 22d.
Girl Drives Ambulance
On the road to Epernay,lo ,lorries and
ambulances of all the allies passed each
other in continuous lines. One ambu-
lance was driven by o young woman in
dust covered khaki. Italian soldiers
resting by the roadside waved to her
and smiled brightly. Late 1 learned
she is Miss Italia Garibaldi, attached

DOUCHNUTS WAKEN

BY Frank ]. Taylor.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
With The American Army In France,
June l6.-(By Mail, HE was one of
those quiet, likeable sort Of chaps who
says little and does lot. He newer
talked enough about himself so that you
could know him, yet you liked him and
trusted him because you couldn't help
1t.
He used to come in from the trenches
during the day and do anything he
could do to be useful around the Saliva
tion army hut run by the Mcintyre Sis
tors, Of Mount Vernon, New York. He
would stand watch at night and come
back to help the girls in the daytime.
They couldn't persuade him to sleep.
Other fellows came and worked and
told their stories and got their words of
cheer from the girls and went. But this
chap was always on the job, ever work
ing and never saying anything.
He Disappears.
Then his company moved, and the
girls missed their chief doughnut dipper.
They often inquired what had happened
to him. But no one knew anything
about him, and they heard from him on
ly through an occasional brief note from
the trenches few miles to the north.
One morning Miss Irene was rolling
doughnut dough, and Miss Gladys was
dipping them in the boiling grease, when
the former chief doughnut dipper stumb-
led into the hut. He looked tired and
footsore, and he was dusty.
"Gee, it's good to see you," he said
after the girls had given drink and fed
him some doughnuts, which he ate silen-
tly.
They waited for his story, which he
did not begin.
"Well, how are you'" the girls ask

KAISER WITNESSES DEFEAT
By william Philip simrns

Omitted Press staff correspondent
With the British Armies in France
July 24.-The kaiser saw the German
offensive falter before the Franco-Am-
erican defense in the Champagne, then
break up and fall back before the al
lied counter offensive, according to in
formation received here today.
According to the reports, the kaiser
planned to see son Fritz well off on

licking he has received since Verdun
and more Americans than he ever
wanted to believe were in France. o
Latest reports from the Ma1ne coun-
try show the British have reached all
their objectives, taking 1044 prisoners
including IS Officers.

Dome Waste Inc Seed.

Thrift is one of the excellent qualt-
ties fostered bythome gardens There
should, therefore, be thrift In the use
of garden seed. This year there is a
real seed shortage SO that. what there
is should be made to go as far as"pos.
sible. ~
The home gardener too often
wastes his seed by planting it too
thickly. Such Vegetables as lettuce.
muskmelon, cucumber, kale. parsnip,
vegetable oyster and turnip require
only one-half ounce of seed in order
'raddish, spinach and carrot require
one ounce; string or lima beans. one
half to one pint; beets. two ounces;
cauliflower. one packet; egg plant
one-third ounce; cabbage. one-fourth
ounce.
If your garden row measures more
or less, figure accordingly but buy
only as much seed as.i i snecessary-
and buy It early. ~ 4
