BRIEF NEWS OF THE WAR
General Foch has succeeded during
tha past week In definitely halting Von
Hlndenburg's western drive every
where, except In the direction of
Amiens. 1
Tha original momentum of the Ger
man advance, which extended over a
front of 50 miles, has now been con
centrated in tha small sector to the
east of Amiens. j .
Htndenburg continues to throw
fresh troops Into the battle, and It is
estimated that approximately 600,000
men were actively engaged in the com
bats that have been in progress during
, the past few days. Thla estimate, of
course, doeB not Include the reserves
held behind the lines.
I The nresent fighting Is progressing
over a rather broken country, and tha
Germans are meeting with tha fiercest
resistance on every Inch of it, and
they are open to counter-attacks that
are perilous for them. The slight fluc
tuations In the linea In the last few
days show how the French and British
are taking advantage of the natural
conformation of the ground, while
they are strengthening their defensive
lines and their artillery.
The anniversary of the entry of the
United States Into the war was made
the occasion of celebrative functions In
Loadon, Paris and Rome and the send
ing of numerous messages of felicita
tion by allied leaders. A notable ut
terance was that by Premier Lloyd
George, in which he predicted that
during "the next few weeks" the Uni
ted States would give the Prussian
military Junta the surprise of their
Ilyea.". ;
A Remarkable Invention
It la no longer necessary for the motorist to get stuck. Thla
little device, if carried In hli tool-box, multiplies his power by
73, and makes him Independent of road conditions. It his auto
sticks In the mud, skids into a ditch or overturns, he can right
It In 10 minutes by Blmply driving the three stakes in the
ground, attaching
PULL-U-OUT
to them and to the auto and giving the ratchet crank a few
easy turns. The stakes will hold, even in very soft ground
ana out comes the auto. No trouble, no expense, not even
soiled clothes! This wonderful little device lifts a ton, ot dead
weirht, or pulls 60 tons on wheels; yet its Bhipping weight 1
only 28 lbs., and tt fits easily into a space 4xfixl4 Inches.
