Aug q (by the Associated Press) -
The victories Of the French army on
the Ayre and at Thescourt were won
by some of the less renowned divisions
which genedally are known as sector
divisions" meaning divisions charged
with holding parts of the line while
the duty of attacking the enemy was
assigned to units that had earned the
title Of 'shock troops"
These divisions, without a glorious
past to inspire them and without re.
Inducements, attacked the Germans
with an ardor which shows fine
spirit pervades the entire army These
so-called fsector diyisions' have
obliged the Germans to bring up rA
Inducements and to resort to all ex-
pedients to stiffen the resisting pow
ers.
Several fresh divisions participated
nj the enemy's counter attacks upon
the positions recently captured by the
French around Ribecourt and Canny-
Sur-Matz. In the Thiescourt region

The German artillerymen now are
