The reply Is terse, direct and search-

It is assured of unanimous in

It confirms and completes unity
among the allies, and agrees with the
opinion In England. Franco and Italy.
The London Post:
President Wilson reuses the temner
of his own people and of the aiifts

Ausies had driven tho Huns from their ;
trenches just beyond the Corbie woods
and they had fallen back to.tbe trenonea
on the hiUside. Early In April the Ausies
dug support trenches beyond -VlUers-
Bretonneaux. In the German push" for
Amiens -tho British lino was straight
ened out leaving this territory in tho
hands of tho- Germans. Almost every
night the Ausies are taking sections of
this-German front line, once their own
support trench line. . On July a few
Auales crept out killed 19 Germans and
took two prisoners and two machine
guns. On tho following Sunday after
noon an Ausie lieutenant and eight men
went overtho top and bombed a ma
chine gun post, killing the gun crew and
destroying the gun. 'Next morning an
American lieutenant asked to go along
to get a UtUe experience. An Australian
officer, tho American officer and a. halt
dozen "Diggers" went out In broad 'day
light, rushed tho trench, killed the crew
of a machine gun ana brought in the gun.
A small raiding party of Ausies near
Corbie brought in an office (rand 19 men
a few nights ago. A mile Of trench was
captured one night this week. Our boys
have been with the Ausies on several of
their raids and they love the AusieS like
brothers. The Fourth of July was cele
brated In Australia as though Australia
were part of our own country. v

dents of tho fight at Hamel from the
Ausies. From my sandbag but I can see

on the fact that practically no - on
among th civilians who crowded the
sidewalks afforded any -recognition to
th national colors aa they want by
with their guard 'of marine.
It is Just as obligatory-for civilian
to salute passing colors, as it to for a
soldier or sailor. The man In the serv
ice stands 1 rigidly at salute until th
colors have passed. - 'A ' civilian should
stand uncovered, the hat bald In the
right hand across th breast. To see a
civilian crowd standing In any haphaz

shocking to a man who ha been In th
