Grady county wool will be shipped
out of Chickasha on Juno 1925 and

ers have their clips ready for ship

All wool will be assembled here in
order to ship by carload rate to ST.

Will be big help and saving to the
wool grower who foots the freight
bill. A letter is being sent out today
by the county agent detailing the
program and asking that wool grow
ers report by phone or letter at
once to Arthur Ersland at the Farm
Bureau office the amount Of wool
they will have to ship at that time.
SO tnat an estimate will be made as
to the size of car needed.
THE wool will Of course be pur.

Mr.. Mostetter 1T win be graded
in St Louis, officially, and from that
point will be shipped to the Allan,
tic seaboard to the spindles. While
those consigning clips Of less than
1000 pounds will be paid the approx
innate price here, and those having
clips larger than that amount may
receive rs per cent of the approx
mate price, it will make matters
much more simple if the growers
will simply consign their stuff anu
wait for payment until the wool is
officially classed. A representative
will be here on June 24-25 to receive
the wool"

TO HIHDENBURe LINE By
OCTOBER !, PARIS BELIEF

There is no mistaking the fact that
the whole German resistance at emit
ical points show signs Of cracking
and am informed from Pans that
there is a very general belief in that
city that the Hindenburg line will
be in Allied hands by October 1. This
is obviously extreme optimism but it
finds an interesting confirmation in
the message Clemeneeau has just
addressed to the General Councils of
France. The German is still fighting
bravely and with skill and deterTnin-
alton but the hopeful and significant
thing is that despite his colossal ef-
forts he is being defeated heavily
and continuously.
LudendOrff's situation is not vet
desperate, but it is becoming exceed
ingly perilous. He has been unable
OF unwilling to initiate Hindenburg's
method and make a swift retreat to
the line on which the old marshal
stood from March 1917, to the spnng
of this year. Lingering, Ludendorff
has suffered heavy local defeats and
an ever mounting wastage of men
and material. He : not inflicting
greater losses upon Foch than he is
suffering. On the contrary, his loss
es are far more considerable and the
morale of his army is breaking down
under steady retreats. Not a single
retirement ike that after the second
Marine, which was orderly and left
his soldiers with the sense of a stra-
tegic movement, but retreats after
local defeats each of which increas-
ed the depression and pessimism of
his army and increased the sense of

We have still to keep our feet SOL
idly on the ground, despite the amaz-
ing turn of events and the ever grow
ing magnitude Of our successes. The
decisive stage of our campaign or
our offensive of this year has not
vet come. 1t cannot come until the
battle for the Hindenburg line be-
gins. The battle may begin at any
moment but if it does it will be on
new fields, north of Arras or east of
Rheims or in both regions, thus re-
calling the double thrust of Cham
oaign and Loos in 1915. (
In a word, Ludendorff's center is
