Close on the heels of the ter

struck out again today on a
big front across the Ailette and
Alsne rivers, advancing from one
to two miles in few hours.
A great number Of German
prisoners were captured, but the
most important result was the
new menace which confronts the
hold the Germans had on the
Chemin des Danes. The Chem
in des Danes is the high road
way just north OF the Aisne river
that the Germans made their
stand on after their first retreat
from the Marne in 1914 II is a
piece of ground Of much strategic
importance.)
An interesting feature of the
new attack was the fact that it

three great allied armies on the

QUEST FOR CONSERVATION OF
GASOLINE is DISoBEYED.

While the request Of Fuel Admin
strator Garfield that owners of au-
tomobles refrain from using them
for pleasure purposes on the Sabbath
has been fairly well observed by
Columbians during the two Sundays
It has been in effect, it is claimed

tally d Pd it, and an effort is
on foot, e its observance today

ton in which the writer ASSERTS that
25 automobiles were used for pleas
ure purposes in Columbus last Sun
day, and gives the numbers of the
cars which he claims were SO used.
The letter, which was written in
Tupelo, Miss, also contains the fol-
loving statement "One Of our men
will be in Columbus next Sunday,
and II this needless use of gasoline
is not stopped by car owners dealers
will be ordered not to sell them
gasoline, and, failing to do 50, will
not be able to secure any for them
selves"
Local garages are certainly not
responsible for any illegitimate use
of gasoline which may have taken
place, as all Of them have been clos
ed each Sunday since the request
for the conservation of fuel of this
character was issued.
