 Not Worrying Now, Appshv Re;no S.:c

Octave Bernard and his son-in-law, Delor Provincial, both of the north end of the city. came to the office of The Patriot, Monday, and alleged that the children of Delor, who are grandchildren of Octave. had been kidnapped last Thursday afternoon after they left St Mary's ssehooL
 The two men express the opinion that their wives, who left them some time ago, are responsible for the dis appearance. The children are Delor, aged II, and Yyonne, aged s, and the grandfather says that no brighter, smarter children live and breathe than these.
 According to the story told by the two men, their wives left them near ly a year ago. Why the assertion hap pened. they did not state. After ward, they say, the children were placed in the Windham County Tenn porary Home. While there, the ia ther says. he paid the children s board. Subsequently, they were giv- en into his custody and he placed them in a home in the north end of the city, and there was woman who took care of them. The father said the children had good care and that he bought them plenty of clothes and that they were happy When he re turned from work last week Thurs day he says that the children were missing and had not since been seen. He and the grandfather have been spending a great deal of time since in an endeavor to locate their wlVes, feeling sure that if they are found the children will also be found
 The grandfather said that he had been to Mrs. Bartlett to try and md out where the women are, but that Mrs. Bartlett says she does not know and the man intimated that he was not satisfied with this answer.
 When asked why he did not notify the police of the kidnapping, he sad that he had done so, but that he was told that nothing could be done erim= inallv. but that the matter was one for civil court He said he had been to Providence and other places, but that he was convinced, that the women were not far from Putnam He wished the pictures of the two children put in Bosotn paper and the paper asked to conduct search for the little onees.
 Believing that there was another side to the story, a Patriot represent alive had an interview with Mrs. Bart lett She said that about year ago the father of the children had a guar rel with the mother. threatening her with knife, and that shortly after that she left him. Not long after this the two men went away, which left Bernard's wife, TO years old with the two children. The woman had 10 ma IS of support but to go to

London, Oct. 16.-The British SEQ
ond army. fighting in Flanders. has
reached LIE Chate, ON the Courtrai-In-
gelmunster road. and has captured the
villages of Gulleghem and Heule The
British have advanced to the outskirts
Of Courtrai. This announcement was
made by the war office, which also
corroborated the Belgian and French
successes in Flanders.
Since the morning of October II the
allies have taken 10000 prisoners. and
more than 100 guns in the operations
In Belgium. In addition to occupying
Menin, the British have entered Wer-
vicQ and are standing ON the right
bank Of the Lys.
The entente forces in Belgium and
France continue successfully to drive
the enemy before them. In Belgian
Flanders the advance is somewhat rap
Id, but on all the sectors in France the
Germans are fighting with desperation
to hold back their foes
The great wedge that is being driv-
en- by the Belgian, British and French
troops In Flanders now threatens seri-
ously the tenure by the enemy of
many positions in north Belgium from
the Lys river to the sea, including his
submarine and other bases along the
coast, while to the south the Lille sal.
lent gradually Is being enmeshed and
doubtless soon will receive attention
from the pincers. which are being
oiled for the task of reclaiming this
important tract Of territory as far as
Valenciennes for France.
Meanwhile the French and American
forces are struggling valiantly forward
in their drive northward from the
Champagne region into the country
over which the Germans must effect
. retirement to their own border in
the event of a final debacle. AS has
been the case always since the often
sive began, the Germans are vigorous
ly defending their positions, using in
Vulnerable machine gun detachments
in endeavors to hold their ground.
To the west the French are slowly
closing in upon Rethel on their way
to Mezieres. being only two miles dis
tant from the town. West of Grandpre
they have effected further crossings
of the Aisne. About 800 Germans
were taken prisoner in this fighting.
In Flanders the British have taken
the important railway center Of Menin.
Thourout has fallen and the Thourout-
Courtrai railroad has almost been won.
Numerous towns have been recaptured
by the allied forces and large mum.
bers of prisoners have been taken.
Many guns also have fallen into the
hands OF the allies. The capture of
Thourout completely outflanks the
German submarine base at Ostend and
brings the allied troops within ten
miles Of Bruges, whence the railroad
line runs northward to Zeebrugge.
Germany's other U-boat base In the
North sea.
Reports are to the effect that the
Germans are withdrawing what is left
Of their forces in the north, both naval
and military.
