LONDON. Sept. 2.-The complete fail

Capt. Won Huetwetter, writing in the
Berlin Lokdl Anseiger. who says:
Undoubtedly we underestimated the
determination of our enemies. We
never thought England and her allies
would be so little disposed toward
peace after eighteen months OF sub
marine warfare"

changes in Germany, II not to a seri-
Gus political crisis. The U-boat fight

LONDON. Sept. 2.-On front of ap-
12O miles, from Yprss TO
the region east of Scissors, the Ger
mans were prodded further toward
the Rhine to-day.
While the allied armies made prog,
ress at many points. the advance OF
the British north Of the Somme
amounted practically to smash
through on what has long been
heralded as one OF the strong parts
of the Hindenburg line. The British
victory was achieved on the Drn-
court-Queani switch line, which
broke along its entire length under
the onslaught of Canadian and Eng
lish troops. From the Scarpe River
to Queant the British pushed through
this famous defence, and at last re
ports they were three miles beyond.
This smash by the British constitute.

Germans. since it puts Haig's men In

burg line both from the flank ami
the rear.
That the Germans attached the Ut
most importance to this line is ind-
catet. by the fact that they are known
to have concentrated $4,000 men be
tween Queant and a point five miles
north. Military observers have >ex-
pressed the opinion that should fhe
Queant-Drocourt line be broken the
Germans would he found to have no
defences back of il. Everything points
therefore to the probability that the
Germans intended TO hold this fine at
all costs.

he had not gone into civil life, like so
many of his class, and amassed COM
potency In the first booming years oi
the twentieth century.
Something In the blood, perhaps. had
held him to the army life, which he
loved so much in principle and hated
so much In practice. He was not far
short of thirty; he had nothing but
his meager pay; no ties but married

CASTING IN WAR
SAVINGS STAMPS

The State of Iowa has an honor OF
twelve counties. These twelve coun'
ties are placed on this list because
their citizens are reals patriots. NO
slackers there. In not one OF these
twelve counties has there been sin.
I'll War Savings Stamp cashed in at
the post office. When the citizens OF
these counties bought stamps, they
did so to hid them. 1t was not a
mater Of buying to get rid of the So
licitor during the drive or to get their
name in the limit club with DELHI
crate intention of cashing ina fter the
drive was over.
The selling of Liberty Bonds and
the cashing in of War Savings Stamps
are acts of entirely different nature
in their effect on the Government
finances. When one sells his Liberty
Bond the Government is not called
on for any cash; the ownershop Of
the bond simply passing from one
person to another. When War Saw.
ings Stamps are cashed in, the case
is entirely different. The Govern
ment must pay out in cash, the
amount the holder of the War Saving
Stamp is entitled to. In this case,
the money the Government planned
to use for purchasing guns, ammuni-
J ton, foods and SUPPLIES for our sol.
der boys in France, is paid out to
the person who cashes in the stamps.
Has Florida any counties wherein
there has not been a single War
Savings Stamp cashed in? At pres
ent the State Directors Office cannot
say, as all counties have not yet re.
ported If there is such a county or
counties in Florida, we shall be de-
lighted to proclaim their name far
and wide.
