within seven days from the date it
was mailed. The board has found that
many errors are being made in filling

most common is that the registrant

filled out in the handwriting of the
parties who sign them.

of the registrants have been placed in

NATIONS HEART

ARMY IN FRANCE
Whole Country Goes Wild
Over Brilliant Victory
Over the Hun

Washington, July 19.-The heart
of the American nation was in
France last night. 1t marched and
fought proudly with the boys who
went over the top this morning and
still were gallantlY smashing their
way ahead beside their French COM
rades late in the day.
1t was a tale of splendid victory
and daring that news reports and
even the terse official statements
told. Hour by hour the extent of
the victory grew. What the full eff
feet of the blow will be cannot be
estimated until details of the action
along the whole 25-mile front from
Chateau Thierry to scissors from
which the surprise attack was
launched are available.
1t was clear beyond mistake. how
ever. that in the rush of the first day
of this answer of General F'och to
the German attack east and west of
Rheims, the enemy had been placed
in a position from which he may
have great difficulty in extricating
himself Not only may the Ger
man effort west of Rheims and south
of the Marne be wholly nullified.
but all they have accomplished since

ago may be overturned.
There was little effort here to-
day to measure the scope of the
Franco American stroke. Officers
were too vitally interested in the
swift development of the attack as
it was unfolded, bulletin by bulle-
tin, to devote much time to cold
calculations such as form the basis
for military predictions. 1t was the
instant news that held them, from
General March to the junior staff
officers, and the War Department
was a place of smiles and hand
grips as the boys overseas wrote
new and glorious pages in American
history.
Secretary Baker had difficulty in
holding himself to cool unhurried
expression, as he dictated to the
newspaper men late in the day a

New York, July 19.-New York

story OF the battle overseas. these
flags were waved madly.

There was a demonstration of war
theatres and restaurants, while
hastily organized jubilees were cele-

Union League, were obliged to put

answer the flood of questions which

LOSES SLEEP TO
CHEER VICTORS
Whistles and Bells Bring Out
People and Impromtu
Parade Results

Not since the night following the
day on which Schley smashed up the
Cervera's Spanish fleet at Santiago,
back in 1898, did Harrisburg have
such an impromptu celebration as
that of last night.
The Telegraph gave TO thousands
OF Harrisburgers first knowledge
that the Americans were attacking
successfully and the news kept filt-
ering in over the wires until about
10 o'clock 1t became apparent that
the Americans and French together
had achieved a great victory.
Then the railroad whistles cut
loose, bells were rung and the fog
horns on the munitions mills roared
out their alarm. Hundreds of early
sleepers reused from their slumbers
thought it was fire until a jocund
yard engineer unable to restrain
himself and seeking an outlet for
his feeling through his whistle rope,
went out across the river footing
something like this:
"Root-i-toot-too Root-i-t :
toot! Root-i-toot-toot," which was
taken up by other whistles and old
sttakers who had heard fire whistles
on many occasions decided against
any such explanation, concluded
that something must be doing, and
hustled to the telephone.
But that did little good.
Apparently everybody in Harris
burg thought of the telephone at
the same time.
1t was worse than a fire. The
night force of exchange girls was
simply swamped. The switchboards
were blaze of light and some of
the girls became hysterical under the

The Australians took the trenhces
without much trouble, collecting
thirty-three prisoners under an angry
company commander. two field guns
and two machine guns
The prisoners taken showed more
interets in the battle on the river
Marne than in any other subject and
refused to believe the statement that

The prisoners had been given
glowing account s Of G m a n

the German armies would be in Paris

spoke of the present battle as be-

on it's conclusion the Entente allies
would be glad to sue for peace.
The British front continues quiet
save for vigorous enemy shelling in
the neighborhood of Ypres and in the
hills around KENNEL.
