COURAUD and
YANKS Won WAR
Colonel Hayward Asserts Foe
! Was Lured Into a
ShambIes.
KNEW ABOUT GERMAN PLANS
Through Prisoners French General
Learned of Exact Hour of Hung
Great Offensive and Beat
Them to 1t.

New York.-The story of low Gem
eral GQuraud obtained through prison.
ers word of the exact hour at which
the last great German offensive of the
war was to be launched, and how with
the aid of American troops, he hurled
back the advancing hOrdes, was told
by Col. William Hayward of the Three
Hundred and Sixty-ninth infantry (col-
ored), the former Fifteenth New York
This German drive, launched on July
10, was the turning point of the war,
Colonel Hayward declared. Reinforced
by released prisoners from Russia the
foe was at the zenith of his power.
The blow came east of Reims.
I'VE knew this attack was coming,
and knew it was to be the maximum
German effort" Colonel Hayward said.
"About one hour before 1 O'Clock on
the night of July Il we captured Ger
man prisoners In a raid. They told US
when the attack would come.
Beat Them to 1t.
1.-THE artillery preparation was to
start at midnight and last for five
hours and twenty-five minutes. So
General Gouraud started our artillery
fire five minutes ahead of theirs.
'"rhat put them up in the air. Fritz
had to send to Hans to ask what the
change in his plans meant.
when the French knew when this
battle was coming, their lines did not
remain a thin blue line. 1t seemed
that all the soldiers and all the can
mons in the world crawled over and
took position back of us.
General Gouraud saved the world
Cor civilization. / have heard stories
about how hard he had to work to
convince General Petain and Marshal
Foch that his plan was right.
"But he took a chance-the greatest
chance any soldier ever took in the
world. He took his troops out of the
front line trenches over front of fifty
kilometers.
"Some of these trenches had cost
thousands of lives. Men had toiled
Tor weeks and months to gain these
positions. He abandoned them when
he was sure where the attack was
coming
"And when this occurred he had
!he Three Hundred and Sixty-ninth
American infantry on one end of that
fifty kilometer line and the One Hun
dred and SiXty-fifth on the other.
"When the troops were withdrawn
from the front line only patrols were
left. On my regiments front, instead
of 1000 men, only sixteen volunteers
were left. They were left in specially
reinforced trenches with signal rock
cts gas shells, and a few machine
guns.
"And so the German fire fell on
these front line trenches for five hours

WANTS SCARLET RIDERS BACK
Canada in Worldwide Search for
Members of Northwest Mounted
Police.

Vancouver. B. C.-The world is to
be searched by officers Of the royal
northwest mounted police to locate for
Eler members of the Scarlet Riders and
bring them back to the fold.
When the European war broke out
the mounted police were not permitted
to enlist as a unit. Some of the men
disappeared" and were not heard from
until they distinguished themselves on
the battlefelds. Later unit Of the
'mOunties" was accepted for service.
Investigation has disclosed that some
of the best known Scarlet Riders are
in the Holy land, others in Africa, Aus
tralia and the Orient. The government
wants its Scarlet Riders, back, and will
do its share to bring them home.

ana twenty-five m1nutes-and those
shells fell on empty trenches, except
for those patrols who stayed there ex-
pecting to be killed, but who, strangely
enough, practically all came back to
US in the morning.
Cut to Pieces.
when the hour for the German in
fantry attack came they set off the
gas bombs and the signal rockets. Our
artillery saw the signal rockets and
cut loose on the massed German in
fantry. 81
1.-THE German masses were literally
smashed by the terrific French artil-
lery fire, and the gas shells our boys
had left smothered them with the dead
" mustard gas. e4q
"They never got through to our
second lines. Our boys sat on the para.
pets of the trenches and watched the
show
but on the other end they did get
through. They crashed into the Rain
bow division and the One Hundred and
Sixty-fifth infantry (the old Sixty-ninth
New York;, met them hand to hand
in some of the most terrible fighting
of the war-fighting fit for that terri
BILE battle.
General Gouraud's army stopped
the German rush and in an address
to his troops General Gouraud pointed
out that the American troops in his
army were my little old Three Hun
dred and Sixty-ninth, the One Hundred
and Sixty-ffth, and others of the Rain.

GIRLS DROP OLD HEADGEAR
for City Fashions to Save
Thin Hair.

Paris.-Peasant girls Of France are
more than ever abandoning the close
fitting native headgear, to wear which
they had to have their tresses cut. In
rural France there is a widespread
movement for the adoption of the
"towny'' style, which, if less pic
turesque, makes for the preservation
of woman's chief glory.
This fact, coupled with the total
disappearance from the market Of
Chinese hair, from which the cheaper
grades of switches" and tails used
to be made, renders false hair extreme
ly expensive in France.
''There are no more so-called hair
fairs held in France nowadays" says
a prominent hair specialist, "and nat
ural blonde plaits are worth at least
500 an ounce.

War Losses of France
Put at $24,000,000,O 900

Paris.-The budget committee
of the chamber of deputies has
drawn up Il report fixing the
damages caused by the war in
France, the total reaching $24,-
OO0,000,000. OF this amount
$20,000,000000 is entailed by di-
rect damages and $4,000,O0O,OOO
by indirect damage through loss
of income or the impossibility
of carrying on work.

ARMY SWEETS TOO RICH
German Children Ate So Many Amer
lean Chocolates That They
Became III.

Paris.-A carload of chocolate billed
to the American army of occupation
in Germany was wrecked near Trier.
Before the American salvage crew got
to work German children of families
living near by ate quantities of the
sweets and started homeward with all
they could carry.
Many of the children had never
tasted chocolate before, this form Of
candy being among the luxuries which
Germany was virtually unable to sup
ply during the war. The result was
that the boys and girls, became i'll and
had to be treated by physician.

THERE is NO WAGE SLAVERY.

AT THE END OF THEIR STRING.

Four propositions will be before this
congress which mean much to the west,
namely:
Workable waterpower legislation, an
oil land leasing bill. road measures,
and public land measures. Particu-
larry is the west interested in oil and
waterpower development.
Self-seeking politicians have defeat
ed passage of these measures for years
ut the expense of western states, but
it looks as if they had about reached
the end of their string. Congress al
ready has these two measures on the
way and speedy action is promised.

Here's an easy way to figure your
income tax, this method having been
originated by one of IL trade papers !:
Take your income and add the number
of your house and divide by the size
of your hat, plus your age. Then sub
tract your automobile number: if you
have none. your telephone number will
do just as well. Add the number of
children you have, less last months
gas bill, less the average weekly num-
Der of automobile trips you have made
in the three fiscal years Immediately
preceding the war. Multiply by your
mother-in-law's g minus deprecia-
ton and repairs. Deduct your life in
surance premium, less freight and cart
age, plus the number of your watch,
and pay 6 per cent of the remainder.
If you make a mistake you are liable
to 20 to Jail.

TRUTH AND

Why did you leave the farm, my lad?
Why did you bolt and leave your dad?
Why did o beat it off to town,
And turn your poor old father down?
Thinkers of platform, pulpit, press,

They seek to know the hidden cause
Why farmer boys desert their pas.
