at Chateau Thierry on the 26th Of
September and did not stop until
Nov. II, the men of the 56th suffered
many horrors. 1t was raining most
of the time: the men were improperly

no shelter; the only food canned sal

STICKY French mud, and 20 per cent
of them lousy.

advance was SO rapid that the supply
department couldn't keep up. There
was no complaint. There were 10
bands playing, no officers swinging
their swords and giving orders to
charge, and l didn't see the American
flag during all those days. We were
told what to do at q certain hour,
and each man did his part cheer.ully,
and not a word of co nplaint though
we all knew that it meant probable
death from one day to another.

it frightened them, and no doubt re-

FOUR MINUTE SPEECHES FOR
BETTER EXPRESS SERVICE

The nation wide campaign inaug-
urated by the American Railway Elk
press Company to bring about better
methods of packing and marking ex-
press shipmerte, began Monday with
the first of a series of meetings of ex-
press employees to be held in this city
during the month of the drive. AT
convenient periods throughout the day
Agent A. J. Couette called together
groups OF his co-workers and urged
them to put their full force behind
the comprehensive campaign now un-
Ger way and 10 work with shippers
| i'll accomplishing decisive results in
lettering the express service.
Vehicle men, depot platform and
claim bureau and office employees Were
each addressed by the agent or his
Four Minute Men. who made stirring
appeals for their active cooperation
and keen interest in the drive. The

speakers told the express workers
that they. individually and collective
", could give valuable aid in the cam
paign by bringing their work up to
the highest standards. There is room
for Improvement everywhere, they
stated. Owing to conditions brought
| about by the war, they admitted, the
express service had not been as good
as the company had expected to make
it. But with these obstacles removed
and every expressman doing his part,
the way has been cleared for a. very
marked change for the better.
In urging the men to seek the CO.
operation of shippers in the drive, the
agent brought to the attention of the
drivers the necessity of giving them
all the aid possible in bringing their
packing and marking methods up to
the required standard. It was ack-
nowledged that the manner of pack
ing and marking varies with the COM
modities, but the question OF whether
a shipment is in proper condition for
handling to destination safely must
be left to the good judgment of the
| driver, who has been thoroughly in
structed on the rules and regulations.

DR.. GANEY TELLS HOW
TIE S6TE RECT ENItHI

Capt. J. NJ. Ganey, NJ. D, of New
London, surgeon with the 56th artillery
regiment, of which SO many Of the
Norwich coast artillery company boys
were members, gave a ffrst-hand story
of the fighting that the regiment did
and how victory came to the armies of
the allies in a Commute talk that he
gave on Sunday in New London at the
Knights Of Columbus entertainment.
The main thing he impressed upon
the audience was that it was the
United States troops who absolutely
turned the tide of battle and prevented
the Germans from winning the war.
as they certainly would have done had
there been anv longer delay in getting
the Yankees into the fight.
Dr. Ganey said that when the Sec
ond division was ordered to the front
IN the vicinity Of Chateau Thierry the
English were retreating, the French
were actually routed, and it wasn't a
question of whether Paris was to fall
but what was to become of Paris
when it did surrender.
TT was not intended that the Amer
lean troops should enter the fight until
the spring Of 1913, but the situation
was so desperate that there was no
alternative. Green troops were rushed
into the breach and the spirit of the
troops and the fighting they did lved
the day
THE Second division was practical
~ annlhilated but tI1eY had stopped
the onward rush Of the Germans and
when the 56th regiment arrived in
support of the 18th the Garnl:.ns we're
checked and they were started in the
opposite direction.
From that time on un.il the dav Of
the armistice the Germans were cor
tinuously driven back and on the dav
the armistice was signa the American
troops were in pos session of a railroad
which was the main supply of the
entire south wing of the German army
and which meant had he fighting
continued that the whole of thu south
ern army would have been cut of

been killed, but the Germans would

DR.. Ganey described the terrible
carnage how the men had tt NOV;

to bury the dead in single gravli;

PAY INCOME TAX
BEFORE MARCH *

That there will be no general exten-
sion Of time beyond March 18th for

ment Of income and excess profits

OF Daniel c. Roper, commissioner of
internal revenue. The announcement

ut is necessary to get the initial
tax payments in by March 18th" says
Commissioner Roper. NO other course
is possible. Some months ago the
treasury issued certificates of indebt-
edness to an amount approximating
$50, 900 600, maturing March 18th. The
first payment of tno income and excess
profits taxes for 1918 was planned for
that date. 10 meet this huge obIiga-
ton.
The American people have proved
that there is no emergency too great

I This present situation is another
emergency which can be overcome by
cooperative effort. The bureau ex-
tends its every force toward this end.
and l am relying upon the people to
meet the situation whole hearted1y.
The internal revenue bureau must
carry out the program prescribed in
the new law. which requires all re-
/ turns for 1913 TO be fled on or before
! March 18th, 1919, and requires the first
| quarterly payment or the entire pay
ment to be made on or before that
! date.
Every taxpayers who can possibly

/ Of his income tax on or before March
! 18th. The quarterly payment method
J is intended for taxpayers whose
! financing of the tax at one time would
tend to upset local hnan<al condi-
! tons.

! cOnferees by the senate and house OF

assumed to be law The internal reve-
