LIT Is said that little George never
told lie. This Is a mistake. He
told three or four every day. and some
awful whoppers. but Ne lied as gently
Ak he could, and there was no SIN In
his heart when he lied. His father
had favOrite plum tree. IL was a
favorite because II never bore over
dozen plums at once. and because
every plum was wormy. One day u
slave on his fathers plantation had
his ears cuffed for some impudence.
and he seized the AK and went out
and cut that plum tree down for re-
venge. Little George saw him do 1t,
but he was not Il boy to go and blnb
everything out. When his old man
missed that tree, and demanded to
know who had cut Ii down, what did
little George do2 He spoke right up
and claimed that he cut IL down with
his little Ratchet to see IL the Ratchet
had an edge on 1t. His father was
going to give him the darndest lick
Ing boy ever got. but, the fact that
little George had told the truth, when
he could have lied just as well as
not, appealed to the parent. He took
his son In his arms and fOrgave him,
and told him that he would buy him
dozen more hatchets, and he could
cut down every tree around the house,

your opinion about that? Does II

ALLIED TO

Premier Clemenceau told the army
committee of the chamber Of deputies
today that the moment was near when
the reserves Of the allies would enter
into action. The great battle now be-
ing waged in France would then take
on a new phase, and he added there
was every reason to hope that tho
enemy would not retain the benefit Of
the gains made at such . bloody
price.
There was a settling down alonx
the British and French fronts, where.
tho Germans were trying to break
and wen ,within the last
few hours there has been noted q

said. 81 =,

Villages Captured By
Huns Are Nothing But
Piles OF Brick Dust
BIZ KENNETH ". AYNE

More than 200 villages are marked
on the map in the region through
whichs the Hun hordes have now
driven.
But the capture of those villages
means nothing except the capture Of
certain names on the map.
There are no villages there.
Travelling in a British staff motor
l have gone through ore Of these
very villages and would not even have
suspected their existence were it not
for sign posts at the crossroads bear
ing the name of the hamlet which
once stood on the spot.
In the conquest Of this region the
Germans have taken nothing Of mil
treating across it, blotted out every
thing which might have been of use
to human beings.
What every correspondent who has
studied this region first hand had
long suspected iB no secret now. the
British had made no serious effort
to fortify and hold this area in case
Of a new German drive across it., .Ex-
cept for the necessary buildings to
house their troops and except for
road repairs to render motor COM
nlunication possible, the British left
the region practically in the state Of
utter devastation in which theyo found
it after the Hun retreat Of a year ago.
Places like those marked Estress,
Poeuilly. Brie, Athies, Tincourt, Roi-
sci, and Buire may we'll nave been
taken by German troops. but those
places r nothing but heaps Of red
brick dust and a few piles OF shatter-
ed stones. practically useless ever
for machine gun posts.
The German plan seems to have
been to catch the British armies in
this devastated area and engage them
in q wa Of movement in the open
where there was no cover of any kind
by using which the r~etreating Tom
mics could hold up the Hun advance.
Dispatches indicate that the British
have forestalled this trick by extricat-
ing themselves without more than
normal losses and taking up prcpar-
ed positions still further back.
Tho strategic advantage which :he
Germans have gained will not be fully
evident for several days. But the ter
ritorial advantage OF their drive in
the region east Of the Bapaume-Pe-
rome line is nil. They have simply
occupied a vast Sahara Of their own
making. containing not nj soli-
tary civilian inhabitant to be added
to their slave gangs.
