THE PROGRESS OF THE WAR.

According to the latest reports from
the war departmens there are now
l,400,0O0 American soldiers i'll France.

Oise and the French and English have
penetrated their lines in many places
and at last accounts, were at the gates
of Noyou. Over ten thousand prisoners
have been taken and considerable.
ammunition and store houses have been
destroyed.
Although the casualty list is increas.
ing daily, it is not more than can be
expected when our forces are on the
aggressive. In many places the distance
between the German border and the
advancing zeallies have been narrowed
down to twenty miles. This is especially
true in the south.
A German U-boat captured a traWler
that was armed and it has, been CON
verted into pirate of the sea, and a
number Of fishing schooners have been
sunk. A number of American destroyers
have been sent north and it is expected
it will only. be a matter Of a short time
before the pirate will either be captured
or destroyed. It Is claimed there are
Six German U-boats operating on this
side of the Atlantic and that two have
been destroyed.

pected to be elarge ones, for the fighting.

RELIGION IN THE CAMPS

Many good citizens of Louisiana do a
good deal of worrying about their boys
in camps or over the seas, imagining that
they will lose in those new and grim as
sociations all the benefit of what religious
training they have had during childhood
and youth. But if they will look over
the last annual report Of the supervisor,
Hugh Cork, who is well known to many
Louisianians, they will find that 30O,359
copies of the New Testament were dis
tributed to the soldiers during last year,
the Y. M. C. A. secretaries doing the
distributing. 1t was their responsibility
to see that no soldier went to France
without copy Of the New Testament in
his pocket. It will be seen, therefore,
that not only is the boy who has been
given religious training at home held
firm to his faith, but that other boy who
has Jest growed," like Topsy, is given
an opportunity to learn better things.

THE BOYS FROM HOME

Out of the twenty-three men drafted
from one small town, it was found that
seventeen had never spent night away
from home. Louisiana S contingent has
many of like kind. Fancy these poor,
home-loying and homesick boys in the
training camps and across the seas-if it
were not for the Y men or the Welfare
men or the representatives OF ALI the
seven organizations which have Joined
hands for Just such work as this. The
bov from home cannot go so far nor
fight so hard that he will not find one
of these near him, with the friendly hand
on his shoulder and the splendid word
of cheer TO lift him out of the depths.
1t is because of work like this that the
seven organizations are to receive the
of money during one moment
Gus week, beginning November II; and
after that week the war work will 90 for

Austria Hungary and Turkey have in
formed Germany that they will accept
President Wilson s peace terms, accord
ing to dispatch to the Central News
from Amsterdam.
Turkey has made a definite peace pro-
posal to President Wilson, according to
reports in circulation here.
Reuters Limited says it learns that
Turkey has approached the United States
with a view to peace.
So far no decision mas been reached
by the ministers assembled at Berlin un-
der Chancellor Macmillan to consider
President Wilson IS answer to the peace
proposals of the Central Powers, says a
dispatch from Berlin received here today.
As the new government, however, the
message adds, regards peace measures
most seriously, it is considered certain
that an answer will be given to President
Wilson onsa all these points with the same
rapidity as that in which he answered
Germany.
It is believed from this that it is the
purpose of the German government to
pursue the conversation commenced on
the possibility Of concluson Of peace.
A rescript from the German emperor
to the army generals is printed in the
German newspapers. After stating that
Chancellor Maximilian is desirous of
ameliorating the state of siege through,
out Germany, Emperor William invites
the military authorities to establish re,
lations with the presidents of the prov
inces on alL questions not strictly relat-
ing to military affairs.
In particular he mentions censorship
and the right of public reunion and
association. In the case Of disagreement
on any question it shall be referred to

aid and judicious expenditure OF this
fund, st. Mary may look for big things
in connection with the development ot
her roads.
A road conference, approved by both
State Highway Engineer Buie and Fed
eral Engineer Glenn, is being planned
1t will be held at some point in St. Mary
and, if conditions will permit, on date
not later than two weeks from now. The
purpose of the meeting will be to of
ficially secure the views and enlist the
aid of federal and state authorities on
road matters which now hold the inter
estSof this parish.
1.-THE people of st. Mary, Lafourehe,
Terrebonne and Assumption are fast
awakening to the Importance of good
roads. Their support of recent measures
taken in the interest of good roads amply
demonstrates this spirit. When projects
now in the making become realities they
will derive great satisfaction in the
knowledge they have been instrumental
in bringing them to pass.
