With the French Armies in the
Field. Aug. 29.-(By The Associat-
ed Press, 10 a. m.)-Noyon was oc-

Mountain, west of Noyon.

crossed the Roye-Noyon road near
Sermaize, two miles north OF No
Won, but the Germans are energetic
ally defending the hills to the east.
The French First army took
Queancy wood to the west OF the
Canal du Nord. The wood was a
strongly fortified position and from
it the Germans endeavored to check
the French pursuit.
The fall OF Noyon comes as a
heavy blow to the Germans, who
were thought during the early days
OF the Picardy offensive to be plann-
ing to hold Noyon os the southern
pivot OF their line, which runs
northward along the old battle
front of 1916.
\ Noyon is situated on the right
bank of the Oise river at the con-
fluence of that stream and the lit
tie River Voise. TO the south and
east there are large areas of flat
lowlands along the Oise, while 10

the southwest is Mountrenaud and
the Lassigny ridge, which domi-
nate the whole region. To the north
east a range OF hills jutS out into
the valley. One railroad runs
through Noyon. 1t comes up to the
Disc valley from Compeigne and
and turning east at Noyon leads TO
Chany and La Fere. \ canal leads |
of 10 the north and terminates at
Nesle. Two small railroad lines run
north and northeast, the former
Nesle and the latter TO Ham.
Noyon is great highway center.
Roads run to Roye to the north
west; one to Ham to the northeast;
one goes up the OiSe valley and
another leads down into Carlepon;
forests TO the southeast. Another
goes down the Oise to Compiegne.

ARGENTINA FAVORS
LEAGUE Of NATIONS.

BUENoS AIRES. Dec. 13.-Honorio
PueyrredOn, Argentine foreign minis
ter, declared in an interview with the
United Press today that his govern
ment is a strong advocate OF the
league of nations.
81 think the league of nations is
the most wonderful idea yet advanced
by your President" said Pueyrredon.
Regarding freedom of the seas,
Pueyrredon said:
Argentina expressed. her ideas of
freedom of the seas when she sent
her note to Germany after sinking of
the Toro. She demanded not only rep
aration and satisfaction, but assur-
ance that the Argentine flag would
have the liberty OF the seas"
/. Pueyrredon then discussed the rela-
tiops between Argentina and the
United States.
Cordial feeling depends upon the
friendship of the two countries rather
than upon diplomatic representation" !"
he said.
The foreign minister predicted there
is a great future in trade with the
United States.
Pueyrredon mentioned the swift
ness with which Argentina acted, in
conjunction with the United States. in
aiding to compose the Chilean-Peru-
Wan differences. Argentina is now
awaiting the reply to the ADVANCES by
its ministers in those countries.

...A2iNG AUTO LIGHTS
ARE UNLAWFUL
From the Portland telegram

The sentiment against drivers of mo-
tor cars who persist in defying both
the state statutes and the city ordi-
nances, which say that headlights must
be dimmed. is growing among ''safe
and sane motorists Accidents to
cars, endangering the lives notOnly Of
the drivers of the cars not equipped
with proper lenses, and the passengers
whom he carries, but of those whom
he meets on the roads, are growing
more numerous as the cars become
greater in number and there is serious
talk among drivers who pay attention
to the law of taking drastic measures
against. those who have no regard for
the law.
The law states specifically Just how
car should be equipped so that the
headlights will not throw a glaring
light, but in spite of this fact. nun
dreds are driving their ears in and out
of the city with their lights full on,
binding approaching motorists and Pc
destrians. Glaring lights leave the
other fellow who is coming headon
absolutely helpless. He may be hit by
the other car or he may drive into the
ditch, for all he can see is binding
glare from the other light. The road
is blotted out. Distractions cannot be
seen, and his only salvation is to stop
still and wait until the road menace is
past. Then when his eyes have be-
come accustomed to the darkness
again, he can start and drive safely
until he meets another car not equip
ped with proper lenses, when his safe.
ty first operation OF stopping still must
be repeated.

ADAMS WAS DARK

People of Hood River and their
guests, who viewed the total eclipse
of the sun from the northern section
of Hood River county at points from
which both Mount Hood and Mount
Adams were visible, were privileged
the rare sight of beholding one noun
tain sin ghost-like shadow while the
other was resplendent in the rays of
the afternoon sun.
Mount Hood was without the zone
of total eclipse. while Adams was near
the center of the zone. Those who
saw both mountains declare that the
contrast between the two snow peaks
was the most impressive incident of
the eclipse.

APPLE ESTIMATES
TOO HIGH SAYS BONE

The government estimate of the
Hood River fruit crop, placing the 1918
yield at 1900, 900 boxes, is decidedly
erroneous, according to c. r. Bone.
81 have not visited all sections of
the valley" says Mr.. Bone, ''and my
opinion, of course, may be somewhat
changed after | have seen each COM
munity, but am sure that the govern
ment estimate is a way too high. If
all other districts are like those that |
have seen the crop will not be any
greater than it was last year, when
less than 900,000 boxes of fruit were
shipped"
