Errors in Last Issue


The Enterprise made two blunders
in it's last issue. One was in stating
that Calvin Duke had undergone an
operation in Nashville for gall
stone, when, in fact, it was Clanton
Duke. The other was in stating class
5 of the classification of registrants
would predominant in numbers.
Glass will be the larger. Class S
embraces cripples mostly, and, con-
sequently, will be the lowest in num-
Der. The weather must have had
something to do with newspaper
blunders last week, as the Memphis
Commercial Appeal reprinted in its
Fridays issue it's leading editorial
of Thursday, because of a blunder
appearing in the editorial when first
printed on Thursday.

WHEN I'M FAR AWAY.

Darling, when am far away
From you, somewhere in France,
| ask you to always think of me
And pray that may have chance.
To leave you, dear, was hard
The hardest thing OF all
But am no Stacker
When hear my country's call.
To be at home with you, little girl,
Is happiness that is true,
But cannot see the enemy
Down the Red, White and Blue.
/ used to be with you often
Beautiful, happy daysl
But it makes me blue TO think
We are 30 far away.
Some day in the future
This great conflict will end,
And soldier boy who loves you
Will come back to you again.
The girls here are fair,
But wherever roam
There are none to compare
With the girl let at home.
When the boys are marching
To the tune of the national hymn
1t makes me proud to know
That | am one of them.

For the boy who went away
Into the hArdships,
Serving his country all the day.
Bear the burden, little girl,
May your love be true
To the soldier boy in khaki
Who will come marching to you.

Send Your Boy a Sweater


The intensely cold weather re-
minds us that mothers who can do
so should at once knit and send
sweaters to their boys in the training
camps, as it takes about three months
10 get sweaters to the boys after
they reach France. Mothers can buy
Sneir yarn and knit and send these
sweaters to their boys now, so that
they will have them ready for use
apon reaching France, as well as
acre at home. 1t is the purpose of
the Red Cross to supply every boy
with a sweater, but the process at
Best is slow, and many of them now
in France, perhaps, have none. So
it is advisable that mothers attend
to the important matter themselves
a once. Any member of the Red
Cross knitting department, Mrs. j..
III. Jones, Chairman, will gladly give
AL needed Instructions and assist
aRce.

made in the first few days when they
nushed forward IN wedge headed
towards the southwest. The length
aninq sides of the wedge exposed
them to a possible danger which
thew sought to avert by an offensive
further north.
Frank H. Simonds, t~elegraphing
last Friday night, said:
1T was the realization of this dan
ger that led the Germans to begin on
Thursday their desperate attacks
upon the British line about Arras.
They sought to break the northern or
British hinge of the allied front just
as their dash at Montdidier was a
blow at the southern or French hinge,
north and south, they failed to make
any but local gains.
In pursuit of the limited local OBJ
i~ective, which is Amiens, the Ger
mans began on Thursday to make des-
perate/ efforts just south of the
Somme, to clear the old Roman road
running west from st. Quentin to
Amiens. This road is their most di-
rect route to Amiens, o some
twelve miles distance from Warfusse-
Abancourt, which they reached on
Friday. At the same time they push
ed southwest into Montdidier in or
der to keep open the Noyon-Roye-A-
miens highway which is their only
road to Amiens.
The danger that n or more Brit
ish armies could be destroyed, and
that a great British disaster result,
ended on Thursday when the British
had pulled themselves together from
the Scarpe to the Somme, from Arras
to Albert and were standing firm. The
arrival of French armies on either
banks of the Disc between the bend
near Lafere and Noyon and along the
Noyon hills westward, had already
closed the road to Paris. Thus the
whole problem was simplifed.

LEMONS WHrTEN AND
BEAUTlFY THE SKIN
Make this beauty lotion cheapIy for
your face, neck, arms and hands.

At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare a full quar-,
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin softener and complexion beautifer,
by squeezing the juice of two fresh lem,
ons into a bottle containing three ounces
of orchard white. Care should be taken
to strain the juice through a fine cloth
so no lemon pulp-gets in, then this 10,
tion~will keep fresh for months. Every
woman knows that lemon juice is used
to bleach and remove such blemishes as
freckles,' sallowness and tan and is
the ideal skin ~softener, whitener and
beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store and
two lemons frRm the grocer and make up
a quarter pint of this .sweetly fragrant
lotion and massage it daily into
the face, neck, arms and hands. 1t is
marvellous to smoother rough, red hands.

MEETINGS
CLOSED SUNDAY

DR.. Herbert Booth closed a union
.evangelistic meeting on Sunday night
which had been in progress at the
First Baptist church for two weeks.
DR.. Booth is an able preacher and
his messages were heard by crowds
that often filled the church. The
seating capacity would not accom-
modate these at the three last SER
vices on Sunday morning, afternoon
and night.
There were about IS professions
during the meeting and the doors
of the churches will be-open next
Sunday to receive new members.
While DR.. Booth is a deep student,
is strong in argument and has quite
a dramatic and interesting style, he
did not<go very strong on emotional
ism, as Some evangelists do, and
there was not the manifestations o.
re-consecration on the part of back
sliders as is in evidence at many re-
~vivals, but despite this there were
quite a number of people converted
and many others helped along their
Christian journey.
Baptists, Methodists and Presbytc-
rians joined heartily into the SER
vices, nearly all of which were large
ly attended.
DR.. Booth was assisted in the
meeting by his nephew, Rev. Eric
Booth libborn, who expects to soon
engage in missionary work in China.

The greatest battle in the history
of the world has been raging for two
weeks. The Germans, with the aid of
Austrians and Bulgarians, threw in
to the conflict the heaviest weight
of men and guns ever used by any
army. The purpose was to break
through the British line in France, or
failing in that, to drive a wedge be-
tween the British and French armies.
Hindenburg was quoted as saying
that he would dine in Paris on April
/.
He didn't succeed in keeping that
appointment. His attack was met by
a fighting. retreat which cost his
armies a casualty list of hundreds OF
thousands. At that Staggering cost
he succeeded in capturing a 30-mile
wedge of wilderness which he him
self had devastated last year. The
apex of his wedge stops short of
Amiens. He has paid a CHASTITY price
for a strip of barren land which he
will not be allowed to hold.
The great battle has been attend
ed by two very important incidents.
One is the appointment of General
Foch as generalissimo of all the al
lied forces, leaving Haig and Petain
to hold their present positions as
field commanders, which they are

March 28.-(Good Friday.)-The
German crown princes army took

enemy's efforts to push further west

March 3O.-The Germans began

April with the passing of the
thirteenth day of the big battle there
came increasing evidence of German
exhaustion. The Huns no longer
threw vast masses of men into the
fray regardless of losses; on the
other hand they declined to give bat
tie except where the British or
French attacked them. No important
changes were made in the battle line.
April APART from violent ar
tillery and aerial activity, military
operations were almost at a stand
still. Minor German attacks were re-
pulsed by the French in the Woevre

British carried out a small operation
and captured an enemy outpost.
