sive and gas shells into the woods and cleaning the heights.
 Fighting on in those treacherous woods, subject to flanking fire and in constant danger of ambush, the Mar ines continued to advance, regardless of fatigue and losses, until they held another quarter of a mile of the woods and the advance was halted. The new position was consolidated with the help of the Engineers and food and ammunition were sent in.
 "As a result of the fighting on June 7th all along the line, the Amer jeans advanced their position over a six mile front.
 "To the men in the woods, fighting most of the time, snatching sleep when they could, the succession of night and day was hardly noticeable and there were few who could have told how long they had been fight ing.
 And so the battle continued, with our boys edging their way slowly ahead in the forest, the ghastly dead lying all about them. Companies that had entered the battle 250 strong dwindled to fifty or sixty with a Ser geant or a Corporal in command; but with burning eyeballs and drawn fac es, they fought doggediy on. The Germans brought up reserves and Stiffened their resistance. A tremen- dous and continuous artillery fire was concentrated on the wood, Bour- esches, and all approaches. Gas was poured in, the deadly, insidious yper- ite, that saturates the clothing and burns the skin and hangs for days in thickets and low places. The strain was beginning to tell."
 Finally, Fifty American and French batteries-some two hundred guns in all-then let loose an infer nal fire on the woods. The infan- try action had given the artillery a chance to get thoroughly ready for this storm of fire. And they batter ed the last spark of fighting spirit out of the Huns.
 "The Germans had tried attack af-

ter attack to drive the Marines out but without success. Now they were up against more serious situation. The combined artillery and infantry attack was too much for them. It must not be supposed, however, that there was any lack of resistance. The enemy still operated numerous ma chine gun nests in well selected pp- SitionS, many of them cleverly cam ouflaged, which our shells had missed. And so the hand to hand fighting was resumed.
 "Early on the morning of the 10th, the Marines started in again with the artillery fire sweeping the woods ahead of them, and began to clean out the rest of those machine guns with rifles, hand grenades and bayonets. They partially surrounded the woods and subjected the Hanks of the Ger man defenders to a taste of their own machine gun fire. They were cut up and slaughtered. They began sur rendering in groups. On that day, our line was advanced two-thirds of mile on 600 yard front, and all but the upper portion of the wood was cleared of Germans. And behind our men came the Engineers, con- structing strong position.
 'In a way Soissons was a bigger affair for the Marines than Belleau Wood, though entirely different in character. They were not required to stop German drive single-handed, but they took a not inconsp1cuous part in the big push that drove the Bosche back from the Marne."
 The award of the foulragere by the Republic of France is in commemor- ation of all of this and more that cannot be told in this brief space. But many memories will be quickened in the minds of those happy faced young salesmen, book-keepers, plumb CTS, farmers, clerks, lawyers and laborers, of the days they spent in the uniform of the Marine Corps when they receive this token of honor and gratitude from the Nation on whose soil they fought for civilization.

losses on that day were even heavier than on the 9th. We lost a series of battalion attacks against the forces in the wood, besides the constant fighting for local positions, and the fepulslng of counter attacks. On that day, Sibley's men, resumed their rushing of machine gun nests and their strenuous hand to hand fight ing.
 At the peep of day, they were up and at 'em again as though fresh from their billetS. It was now matter of thrusting the whole line northward through the woods and into the darksome maw they plunged straight into the Dantean horrors. There was no respite. The enemy machine gun fire became more dead ly after they had penetrated to some little distance, but they had to keep going. When they could, they dug little rifle pits for themselves with the small trench tool carried in the kit, as a slight shelter against that WieiiOAhiS 1hC' "hch ldllSuc UeCdlllc greater than could be borne, men curled up in shell holes or crevices in the rocks, or in the shallow trench es they dug, hoping for brief res pite, only to be reused by the uproar of new conflict or the nearby burst ing of shell. Occasionally gas was
 fred into the wood, and that meant
 inting in masks. None but the fin
 type of soldier could have stood
 to all this and continue to make
 ,gress. They took those machine gun nests one after another, and in some cases were able to turn against | the Germans.
 "Our artillery was at a disadvan tage in not knowing just how far our men had penetrated, but gradually with more complete information, our shell fire improved. The guns coop erated when they could, eventually hurling more than 5000 high eXplo-

TONOPAH AND DIVIDE
 MAKING BIG PROGRESS

From the standpoint of actual min ing results, the Tonopah and Divide mining districts are making q very satisfactory showing, and each is in line for a generous increase of its ore tonnage. The four big ore reduction plants operated by the four leading mining companies at Tonopah, are working at capacity, and for the most part on the ores of the Tonopah and Divide districts. Small shipments are coming in from time to time from the Arrowhead and other nearby districts of recent "birth," and mining condi tions therein indicate that future shipments will be in larger tonnage.
 Interest in mining development af- fairs at Divide centers chiefly at the Tonopah Divide and the Kernick Di- vide properties, where deep shafts are being driven to the zone of primary precious-metal enrichment. In the Tonopah Divide workings satisfactory progress is being made in driving crosscuts to the ore on the 500 and 1,000-foot levels. It will be several weeks, however, before the objectives are reached. In the upper levels, from a depth of 165 feet to a depth of 585 feet, the management continues to block out and add to the ore re- serves. At the same time shipments go forward to mill at the rate of 40 tons a day. This ore is mined during the ordinary course of development work and is in sufficient tonnage and of sufficient value to meet operating expenses.
 At the Kernick Divide shaft pow erful electric hoist has just been in- stalled and is proving an efficient agent in furthering operations. The shaft has a depth in excess of 900 feet and will reach the 1,000-foot point within a few weeks. There a level will be established and crosscuts be run to the ore bodies exposed at, or near surface on the Kernick, the Re- vert, the Hasbrouck Divide Annex and the Tonopah Hasbrouck properties. The expense of driving this shaft is shared jointly by the companies nam- ed. The Kernick, Hasbrouck Annex and Hasbrouck companies affairs are controlled by the George Kernick es- tate. The Revert ground, to the con- trary, is to be developed on profit sharing basis, and is held under a lease agreement.
 Mining conditions in the Eureka district, one of the desert standbys of early days, continue to improve as old ore bodies are tested out and now ore bodies are further developed. In fact, it appears certain that number of the ore bodies opened in former years are to come back strong, with silver selling at dollar an ounce and with modern reduction and transpOr- tation methods cheapening mining and reduction costs. In a number of the old-time mines the ore left stand ing by former operators is now being mined at a profit, and as other of the bonanzas of the past are taken over and developed, it appears certain that they, too, will again become valuable mining assets.

READING THE FUTURE

Now and then you see in the maga-
zines or big-town papers the adyer,
tisement of come man or woman
usually a woman under high.sound-
ing Egyptian name-who claims to be
able to read the future, to tell what
investments are safe, to locate lost or
buried treasures and to tell all of the
secrets of success. We don't know
whether they ever wheedle and pen
nies out of the people around here or
not We hope not.
Read one of these ads the first op-
portunity you have and then, even
while you are tempted to inclose the
small sum asked in a letter to the
medium" figure it out along this line.
II such people know and are capable
of telling where fortunes are hidden
or buried why don't they go and dig
those fortunes up themselves instead
of tipping off the secret to you for a
ley pennies? If they know what Oil
stoA oS copper stock or any other
kind of stock is going 10 pay hun
dred dollars for every dollar invested,
why don't they invest a few dollars Of
their own in such stock2
Answer those questions yourself
and you'll not waste any of your mon
ey upon such fakirs, If such people
lived in the Figi Islands or some other
faraway place we'd be sending mis-
sionaries d~-u there to civilize them.
