miles north of Albert and two and a
half miles south and west of Buc-

Reports from the Franco British
forces to the south indicate a little
progress there. The British rushed
the enemy infantry at Sally lie Sec

In seven days, one unit of $50 "spe-

Young men, for the love of adven-

Three Days without Food.
A French battery facing Noyon
fought three days and three nights
without food. After being complete

guns and carrying off their dead and

The captain of a French machine

solid masses of the enemy. He de-
clared he could have easily fired sixty

until the train was upon him, it is
relieved, was he aware of the i'm
pending danger. He was crossing a
cattle guard on the tracks and his
foot caught in the guard, pinning him
to the tracks.
