In recent times people seem to
think that any wrong can be righted
by legislation. The employer expects
law making bodies to look after his
interest by legislation tending to re-
duce the price of labor while the en-
ployee asks for laws that will give
him shorter working hours, more pay
and cheaper living expenses. Thus
the fight goes merrily on - the goose

have been relegated to the four winds

But neither losses nor German
reinforcements could stop the Rain
bow division, now that it had start
ed. The Foret de Nesles lay before
it, full of German defenses, and
from the woods on Hill 220 machine
guns still raked the positions of the
l66th. At 9 a. m. on the 30th, Colo
mel Screws and his 10Th Alabam-
ans started through the wheat to-
ward the Chateau de Nesles, and
with the aid of the sniping guns Of
the Goth divisions artillery, blasted
out machine-gun nests, crossed the
plateau and dug in close to the cha
teau. The 16Sth had to dig in after
progressing about 500 yards.
In Muercy Farm, Colonel Nc
Coy's New Yorkers could only dig
and seek shelter from the whitening
fire down the valley Of the Ru du
Pont Brule. Light field batteries
and machine guns played constant
ly on the ruins and unceasing duel
went on between them and the
16lst artillery from Minnesota. The
most the l66th could have done was
hold, and they did that with heroic
tenacity.

deserted the village. During the aft
ernoon enemy patrols, filtering in
to it, found it empty. More came
in, and still more, until by nightfall
large body of them was there,
probably preparing new machine
gun positions, if not preparing a
counter attack.
And all this time Colonel Hough's
men were hanging to the edge of
Hill 1874, and when darkness had
fallen they surrounded Seringes, at

fierce hand-to-hand battle mopped

than the Americans to come to close

II out with bayonets. The difficulty
the Rainbow was finding here on the
Ourcq was in getting to close quar-
ters without being killed or disabled.
Rushing through the open up to the
concealed German machine guns in
the hope Of frightening the eunners
into surrender, or Of catching them
off their guard was sheer suicide.
That was now certain. 4

So then and there the Rainbow
conceived and launched a typieally
American style of attack; launched
it as extemporaneously as Z great
orator in the heat Of q debate
launches an immortal phrase. 1t
claims no credit for having origi-
mated it. In one form or another
the American divisions which had
fought in Belleau Wood and up to
lie Croix Rouge Ferrne and before
Soissons had used the same method
of capturing German machine gun
nests. But the Rainbow knew
nothing about that. It had had no
schooling in such work. Without
time for either rest or schooling it
had come from a sector Of patrols
and raids to sector OF defense, and
from there directly to = sector of
offense, and what 1t learned it had
to learn by bitter, costly experience.
What it did now, with Sergy.

On\ the morning of the 10Th the

by German artillery. Shells fell in
the whole Ourcq valley that day like
rain.
Hill 2lz commanded the Foret de
Nesles, which was now the only
strong position the boche had left In
his whole Oureq system. French
and American artillery, concentrat-
ing upon it, sileneed the German
batteries and they began to, with.
draw. And on the night OF August
l the German infantry pulled itself
together quietly, and silently stole
away toward the River Vesle. ~.
The Rainbow had outwitted. out
gained and outfought the best SOL
diers in the German army. They
were now in full retreat from the
Ourcq.
The pursuit started next morning.
The 168th exhausted after six days
and nights Of constant fighting OF
the hardest kind, was revealed by
the 1l7th engineers from California
and South Carolina, commanded by
Colonel Kelly. This regiment, ready
now to attack as infantry, as they
had been ready to defend in the
Champagne, carried on the chase
with the Ohio, Alabama and New
York infantry regiments.
That day the Rainbow advanced
through the Foret de Nesles nearly
five kilometers beyond the point
from which it had started in the
morning. The Germans in their
hurry to get away blew up great
ammunition dumps, but the Rain
bow came so closely upon their
heels that they deserted nearly 30,-
600 shells which the division captur-
ed intact.
Lived in Posthole.
A line running between Mont St.
Martin and Cherry Chartreuve was
the limit of the Rainbow's advance;
between the frst-named point and
La Croix Rouge Ferme the distance
was II kilometers-the longest ad-
vance by any division attacking be-
tween scissors and Rheims. There
relief of the Rainbow by the
Fourth division, which had been pro-
crossing during the pursuit, was
completed, but the artillery stayed in
position for several days assisting
the Fourth to maintain footing be-
yond the Vesle river.
The weather was hot, and the
country full of ruined villages, dead
unburied bodies-boche and Amer
ican--and thousands OF dead horses.
The men were dirty; baths were
next to impossible. But instead of
being withdrawn from the salient,
which seemed on the verge of be-
coming a pest hole, the Rainbow
division was held in reserve for
nearly week. Sickness broke out
Elsie Janis Appears.
And into the middle Of this filthy
backyard of war, with its sicken-

fine afternoon one Elsie Janis
fluffy, beautiful, pipquant-not at
all unlike a goddess just stepping
out of the clouds for bit to see
what all this rough-house was about
down here below. That's what it
seemed like to the Rainbow divi-
sion.
They hauled wagonbed into an
open field and made a stage on it,
and there Elsie Janis danced and
sang before vast concourse of un-
washed doughboys, who suddenly
remembered that there was such a
thing in the world as pretty
American girl-and were somewhat
awed and saddened at the remem-
brance. An aeroplane came whir-
