The defeated but not disOrganiZed
Huns between scissors and Reims, as
was predicted, gathered their strength
for a pause in their retreat between
the VeSle and the AiSne. Their guns
were brought into play from the plat
eau in that region which commands
the Vesle valley The Germans, in-
deed, made strenuous attempts to pre-
vent the French and Americans from
crossing the Vesle, especially in the
vicinity of Fismes, but numerous rela-
lively small units forced the crossings
and held onto their new positions de-
spite furious counter-attacks. These
operations were mostly between
Braisne and Fismes Up to the close
of the week Marshal Foch had not
tried to send any very large forces
across the river probably waiting I'M
til his artillery could drive the Huns
from the nearer hills to the north
The Germans were using only medium
calber guns, which was taken to mean
that their heavier artillery was being
placed north of the Aisne to defend
that line; for there seemed little doubt
that they would be forced that far
north before very long. Their position
south of the Aisne was said to be real
ly untenable though seemingly strong
At the west end of the line the French
and Americans were steadily pushing
east along the Aisne, and at the east
end Immediately north of Reims the
French made considerable advance be-
tween the railways running to Laon
and Rethel.

NEWS REVIEW Of
THE GREAT WAR
ALLIES FORCE CROSSING OF THE
VESLE RIVER IN FACE OF
STRONG RESISTANCE. - MARCH
STATES AMERICAN ARMY PRO-
GRAM
BY EDWARD w. PlcKARD.

Having thoroughly whipped the
armies of the German crown prince
and driven them back beyond the
Vesle river, Foch. now a marshal of
France. turned his attention in the
middle of the week to the forces I'M
der the Bayarian crown prince, RGp-
precht. At dawn on Thursday the Brit
ish Fourth army and the French First
army, under command of Field Mar
shall Haig, began an offensive on
wide front in the region east and south
east of Amiens. The front under at
tack was about twenty eight miles in
length from Albert south to the vicin-
ity of Montdidier.
Within "a hours the allied forces had
penetrated the enemy lines to points
from six to seven miles beyond the start,
had taken more than 10000 prisoners
and great quantities of material and
many guns, and had occupied numerous
towns. Their own losses were remark
ably light. Tanks led the infantry in
the attack and did wonderfully good
work.
Complete success in this offensive
would result in oblterating the Ger
man salient In the Montdidier region
and would imperil the entire Hun line
from Reims to Ypres. The Germans
seem to have anticipated this move
ment by the allies and some days prev
iously withdrew their forces there and
in other sectors to stronger positions.
Progress by the allies here carries
them into the Picardy country which
was ravaged by the Germans in their
retreat of March, 1917, and again de-
vastated by them when they drove for
ward this year.

~ the Trenches.
. AS you walk along the streets OF
High Point any evening you prob
ably notice the absence of many faces
which year ago were quite familiar.
Many of them-bright, ambitious,
smiling young chaps-have quit the
pursuits of civil life to don the armOr
of the soldier to help fight the battle
for liberty and humanity. A number
of them have already crossed the At
lantic and some of them are, no
doubt, at this very moment in the
front line trenches or helping drive
the Teuton forces back. Their smiles,
we hope, have not disappeared but
grim determination has steeled their
hearts to do their bit to wipe the last
vestige of "kultur" and Prussian midi
arism from the face of the earth.
You and want to bring these boys
every one of them safely back
home We want them back again as a
part of our daily life, even If we can
not boast of a service flag in the win
dow, denoting a vacant chair at tho
table.
But before we can expect to sca
them again we must see that they are
properly fed, clothed, and furnished
with the guns and ammunition to az
complish the task they have set out to
do. High Points quota for the Fourth
