fate as all other military ventures
Of the heir to the German throne.
Last October the French launched
an attack and won brilliant suo-
cess, taking $500 prisoners the first
day. Tho enemy was driven out Of
the Aisne valley and the line was
advanced to the Athlete, tho Ger
mans losing all tho long disputed
ridge Of the chen,in des DANES.
In turning to new sector TO
strike their blow the Germans have
taken course contrary to that
which had generally been predicted
by military commentators.
Tho German strategy may con-
template a surprise attack in
sufficient strength to compel Gem
eral Foch to Withdraw troops from,
the north in hope of involving tho
allies sufficiently on the Aisne
front to weaken their lines in
Picardy and Flanders.
" the Germans counted on tho
element Of surprise to assist them
in the new attack they probably
have fallen into a miscalculation.
II is evident from the British
statement that new distribution Of
British troops has been made along
the Asne front.
Before the March offensive the
British line ran to the Disc river,
south Of st. Quentin. Going to tho
assistance Of the British the
French took over a sector extend

When the Health authorities of ortyfour states report
the epidemic on the and local conditions almost
back normal again, word of commendaton for those
who have bravey batted the dread disease
is only Just Criticism is the easiest thing in the world
to give Health authorities get criticised for closing
schools churches and business establishments, and
where they do close them they get criticised for that
1t takes courage enforce order that deemed best
for the public good.
Doctors have worked night and day with little time
for Sleep regularity of meals the physical that
is necessary maintain the strength that resists the
disease.
Red Cross members, school teachers and neghbors
have volunteered and taking the chances of be-
coming victims in order to help the afflicted.
Business houses that permitted to remain open
have voluntarily refraned from special sales other
methods that would draw crowds and those obliged to
close have, with few exceptions, complied with for
bearance that is admirable.
No one is competent judge conditions and best
methods those in authority where reports from all
tons center. Occasional mistakes made by every
one but it stands that when methods applied
are those almost universally used the authorities in the
various sections cannot all be mistaken.
Whether it is a neighbor1ood of two three, or two
and three million people, neghbory cooperation and inn
mediate action is essential by those able to render
ice. Though local conditions have been serious, may
be thankful that prompt action and cooperation has pre-
vented serious conditions have existed elsewhere
