their adversaries more than prepared. Long lines of Kemalist troops could be seen crawling down from the sum- mfts of the mountains in serpentine fashion. The Greeks hurried to their positions and awaited the order to for the onslaught.
 The Turkish guns soon were roar ing out fierce volley. Their aim was accurate and deadly. Scores of Greeks could be seen falling. By de- grees the Kemalists advanced until they were within five kiiometers of the city. Their artillery fire was especially effective. The Greek troops then got into action and an swered the murderous cannon and rifle fire that met them. Their work was described by neutral military ob- servers as superb.
 Turks Continue Advance
 In spite of the sustained rifle and machine gun fire of the Greek in fantry. however the Turks were get ting nearer and nearer to the city. Their shells were breaking within panic-stricken. Some fled in terror to the cellars of their homes. Groups of them surrounded the Associated Press correspondent and sought some word of encouragement from him. Would the Turks retake the city?" That was the question that worried them. For a time the situation looked dark
 But the Greek reserve divisions had not yet been heard from. They had been cleverely deployed around the city at the most advantageous strategical points. They were hur- riedly brought up to the first lines, where their rifles and machine guns did deadly work. The Turks. then within three kilometers of the city fell back
 Are they coming back?" the dis tressed Christian population kept re- beating. Only the Greek troops could answer
 Three Greek divisions of infantry were now pouring merciiess stream of fire into the Turkish ranks. They soon were joined by the cavalry.
 Slowly the Kemalists Negan to yield their ground. By this time they were outnumbered two to one by the Greeks, and the odds were becoming greater. Mortals could not stand such a relentless barrage of bullets. Kem- al put up a brave and determined fight, but it was apparent he had not reckoned upon so great a host.
 Additional units of Greek infantry made their appearance until it seemed as if a dozen divisions were in ac- tion. As the fury of the fire in- creased, the Turkish lines began to thin out Those who were not killed turned and fled toward the noun tains. The Greek forces swept on and drove the remainder into the recesses of fhe mOlInfaine triumph for Hellas.
 After the battle 1t was found the Greeks had nearly annihilated three of Kemars finest divisions. One Greek regiment Nf cavalry. in dar- ing charge, slew 400 Turks with the saber. The total Turkish casualties, killed and wounded, were put at 1000, while those of the Greeks were esti- mated at $500.

most of the Greek troops, would be caught unaware within the city. Ke- mai with all his available troops launched a spirited attack from a point eight kilmeters to the north of the town.
 DESCEND LIKE WOLVES
 The Turks descended from the crest of the long range of hills which en- circle Eski-Shehir. like wolves bear ing down upon a sheepfold. Eki- Shehir was too great prize to be given up lightly. Not only is the town strongly fortified, but it is an important railroad head and links Constantinople with Angora. The town lay peacefully upon the broad wheat-covered plain, the surrounding mountains combining to form a vast amphitheatre around it's environs. It was a perfect setting for battle The weather was ideal. Within the city the population was preparing quietly for luncheon, with no thought that a struggle was about to ensue. Only the hum of Greek airplanes overhead disturbed the repose of the lethargio Turkish town.
 The Greeks had taken up posiNons on the outskirts of the city. They, themselves had planned an offensive that afternoon. So the Turks found
