BY AN OFFICER OF THE FRENCH
GENERAL STAFF.


On July II, 1918, out of the eighty
one divisions which the Germans held
in reserve, about thirty were brought
ap and placed behind the troops hold
ing the sectors between Chateau
Thierry and the Argonne. On the
with the German front line troops,
were launched to the assault.
In Champagne the German attack
broke down when it reached our first
series of positions. Between Rheims
and the Marine it was brought to a
standstill in front of our second po-
sitions. South of the Marine the Ger
mans were able to gain a footing on
the heights between Jaulgonne and
Dormans, and formed pocket from
four to five miles in depth
On July Is and II, all the enemys
EFFORTS were made in the direction of
Epernay, but the German troops We're
necessarily counterattacke ed and were
unable to make more than very tri-
ling progress. By the evening of the
18th their advance had been brought
completely to an end.
Instead of resulting in breaking
our front and creating an enormous
pocket in the Champagne and Brie
country, the enemy's attack had en-
abied him to obtain only a few local
tactical successes, which did not
compensate him for the heavy losses
he had sustained. Moreover. the
general situation of the German
It'll and LIST armies by no means
had been improved. On the con-
trary, the troops who had succeeded
in crossing the Marne now found
themselves in a very precarious sit
uatlon; they were menaced with being
driven back across the river at any
moment. while their revictuaiment
could only be effected by means of
bridges that were constantly under
ators.

BOARD OF TRADE NOTES

TRADE at Home" is a good slogan
both for the people and the merchants,
as the benefits are mutual.
Much money is wasted by going to
larger places to do Unnecessary trad
ing, and very little is saved when car
fare and expenses are considered.
Manchester stores are well equipped
to supply all the normal needs of the
community and can sell goods at "A
lower price than stores in larger
places on account of low rentals and
overhead charges. The more patron
age the home stores get, the better
they can do by the people. The home
stores are the ones which give credit
when needed, and pay taxes for the
benefit of Manchester, Perhaps all do
not realize the service which local
stores are giving US.
Our merchants can send away for
goods not in their stocks and in most
cases can give better prices than com
petitors on this class of goods. On a
cash deal they will generally be glad
to meet any prices.
