ALLIES READY FOR ANY OVERT
 ACT BY ENEMY

London, Nov. 15.---Describing the situation at the front, the military correspondent of the British wireless service says:
 Marshal Foch had prepared a fur ther great attack east of the Mouse, which undoubtedly would have dealt the enemy a decisive blow. When the armistice was concluded, therefore, the Germans were faced with immi- nent disatser, and the only course open to them was to surrender at dis cretion.
 The German army appears to be in a state of extreme confusion, but the five days respite which has been granted may enable the Germans to organize their lines of communication and carry out the withdrawal of their troops. It is evident that the Allies must remain prepared for possible hostile action on the part of certain elements of the enemys forces. Revolutionary councils have been set up which may refuse to acquiesce in the terms of the armistice, and the mere fact that the arnistice can be terminated by either side at AS hours notice necessitates the Allies being fully prepared for all eventualities.
 Whatever happens, no organized or effective resistance can be offered un- der any circumstances by the German , army, but if the troops refuse to ac- knowledge the authority of their pres ent commanders and the army should disintegrate,. the allied armies still may have much work to do.''

Staumps and Shell Holes in Place of Trees and Happy Homes Not Even Walls Are Left Standing in Malan- court and Roads Are Impossible.

engineers have had to exercise their ingenuity and the surrounding coun- try, stripped of it's wood, has furnish ed the rock. Fortunately there is plenty of that.
 To either side of the road are the remains of what were once livable, comfortable dugouts and buildings, blown into thousands of pieces by discharges of explosive when the en- emy retreated. Farther afield and as far as the eye can reach across the low hills are hundreds and thousands of shell holes, their era ters overlapping, big and little holes from missiles of every character, that have torn and scared the earth al most beyond the hope of redemp- ton.
 Everywhere is the debris of the battlefield, guns, helmets, articles of clothing, piles and heaps of ammuni- tion, broken-down and splintered wagons, caissons and trucks. And if one go over the scene soon enough bodies awaiting burial.

 Forests FelIed by Guns,


 The once beautiful wooded slopes and hills are now torn and gashed. Great artillery bombardments have stripped hillsides of all but the stumps of their trees, which tower pathetically against the sky without branches or foliage, mere crippled relics of their former selves. Many of them have been shattered by shells as by lightning, others cut off as though by bungling wood choppers The reconstruction of Europe is ad- mittedly going to be a long, hard task, far longer than the war that made it necessary. In time to come the meadows and valleys between hvocourt and Malancourt will be green again, and the trees of the Argonne Forest will grow up as they did before 1914. But as they all look now it seems very, very far in the future before the ruin, the utter destruction, can be made good and the former status of this portion Of France restored.

With the American Forces in France, Nov. 15-(Correspondence of The Associated Press)-The coun- try over which the, Americans fought their way northwest from Verdun presents a pixture of ruin, destruction and desolation. The villages are uninhabited and homes seem but se- pulchres.
 Torn by mines causing huge era ters, gashed by bombardments which made hundreds of thousands of shell-holes and strewn with broken or abandoned guns, wagons, heaps O: ammunition, helmets and all the oth- CT debris of four years of desperate fighting, the whole route betrays the awful effects of war.

a pleasant day for old and young and
helped to increase good feeling among
the people of the county, and to instii
