By DeWITT MacKENZlE (Associated Press War Analyst) Wo are on the verge of the beaten Hitler's great retreat from western France to the defenses ol his own frontier where he plans to fight just as long as he can find men who are willing to risk their lives for him. Events have moved rapidly during the past few hours. Any chance the Germans may have had of holding the strategic line of the Marne river have been nullified by General Patton's drive to the world war battlefield of Chateau-Thierry, hallowed by the gallantry of our doughboys of a generation ago, and his daring thrust fourteen miles northward from Meux on that river. This move by the adventurous two-gun commander not only has cut the river, but it has decided ly increased the German danger of being flanked. Meantime west ward towards the sea the Canadian-British forces have establish ed another bridgehead across the Seine near the coast, thus Increas ing Ihe very sure allied grip on that river. 'I he Seine and Ihe Marne form a natural defensive barrier across northern France, and it had been the obvious intention of (he Hit leriles lo make a strong stand there, since this position protects their nil-important channel dp Tenses to the mirth and their gateway through Belgium to tile rcich. Now they will have to pull out quickiy or suffer anoiiier dls aster such as h;is been visited on them in the batik ot Norman dy. Nazis Face Big Crisis Actually it will lie surprising if tiie Germans aren't already in the process of withdrawing. Their probable inti-niion is to make their next hij; itcleuse on the Somme river in the northern tip of France, and perhaps the Aisne. which forms a more or less con tinuous front with the Snmmr. The valleys of both these streams were tile scene oi bloody lihtine, in the last war. . . Whether the Gennnns will be able to pull upllH'h' socks on the .somme is a mailer ot some ones rlfic toll from all concentrations of enemy troops and from forces moving on die roads. Vital Porta at Stake This aerial slaughter ol men, destruction of equipment, and Ihe consequent disorganization in nazi ranks certainly will make it difficult (or them to reform for a strong stand on the Somme. How ever, they must make the effort In order to protect their robot bomb launching grounds in Ihe Pas de Calais area, and the ports of Calais and Boulogne only about 20 miles from the English coast. While Ihe allied troops have thus been energetically building lio scaffold on which to hang Heir Hitler, our high command seems to have given another dis play of acumen in placing the re sponsibilty for the security of Paris in the hands of the French themselves. There still is a cer tain amount of disorder in the capital and we shall avoid fric tion by leaving it to Ihe French military to deal with. The situa tion is such that display of arm ed authority by foreigners might increase the difficulty. Second of Quadruplet Babies Taken by Death GAINESVILLE.

WFA holdings in storage on August 4 were 1.4 million cases of shell ('Kgs and 37.5 million pounds of frozen eggs. About 75 per cent of the 5 million cases of eggs bought by WFA to support egg prices be iween the first week of April and Die middle of July, have been di verted into war consumption channels and about S35.000.000 of Ihe total price of S50,000,000 has been liquidated to date. The WFA buying program is estimated to have saved producers from a po tential loss of $200,000,000 that would have taken place if the market price of eggs had drop ped as much as 10 cents a dozen. At the outside, the final loss in- urred by WFA on the eggs pur- DAILY DEVOTIONS DR. CHARLES A. EDWARDS Be strong is a very popular slogan for today. Be strong physically, financially, politi cally, socially, in military might, and in leadership. Peo ple like the idea. But the Chris tian man goes further. "Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might." To have this strength one must first be long to the Lord's company, walking in faith and obedience to His way. To have this strength one must give care ful attention to the spiritual food, remembering that "man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that pro ceedeth out of the mouth of God." Again, he must watch for any weakening factors that might touch his life and guard against them. He must put on the whole armor of God, that he may be able to stand against the forces of evil, armed with the shield of faith, the helmet of Salvation, and the sword of the Spirit. We are able to overcome with Christ. St. Paul gives a vivid description of the Christian's armour, and cloth ed thus, the Christian goes forth day by day, to meet the forces of evil, and overcomes the enemy of our souls. "Be strong, say not tne days are evil, who's to blame, and fold the hands and acquiesce, stand up and bravely in "God's name be strong." Amen. Milk Output Boost Patriotic as Well As Profitable Two good reasons why Douglas county farmers should make a determined effort to keep their milk production just as high as possible are the increasing mili tary requirements for milk pro ducts and the increase in dairy production payments which go in to effect the first of September, Leo Sparks, chairman of the county AAA committee, suggests. The armed forces get more than just food value out of their ijuge and whole milk powder Is laggin behind needs and butter procure ment for the armed forces mus continue through October Instea of "signing off" in September du to the sharp drop in butter pr( ductlon so far this year. In th first seven months of this yea: total milk produced on farms wa only one-tenth of one per ceii below last year and 12 per cer above the 10-year average. Dairy production payments wil be increased 25 cents a hundrec weight for milk and 4 cents pound for butterfat beglnnki; September 1.
