GREENBAUM SiTUMEZE 6W rf FRESH CERTilAN TROOPS BREAK THROUGH FRENCH Poilus Pufh North to British Yho Arc Overwhelmed by Enemy BATTLE IS STABILIZED Counter-Stroke by Allies at ; Opportune Moment Seems ' Certain WITH THE FRENCH ARMY IN FRANCE. March 27. By The Asso ciated Press.) Fresh German troops were thrown today against the French army maintaining the junction between tbe French and British lines and notwithstanding the determied 'stand made by the French they : were forced to retire toward the west. tJbe Germans break ing through at Montdidier and oc cupying that place.' Further south, the French held well, resisting all the German efforts. , In the rear of the French army the movements were so intense that It was impossible to approach the firing line. Notwithstanding the continued .advance of the German, the battle, has become more or Mablllzed in the last two days. The French are pushing northward In in dVder to keep in close touch with the British who had been forced back bv overwhelming numbers. French troops have relieved part of the British line; Nothing as yet hat been allowed to develop regard lag the, intentions of the entente allied commanders, but It is certain that at no opportune moment, they will make a counter- stroke. The general Idea of the, bat tle as far as it has gone shows that (he Germans chose to make the!" principal attack against the British front. At the same time tbev made a demonstration just where the two armlet, French ; and British, join. The Germans succeeded in making a breach in the British line, which he French forces closed, first send ing cavalry to f Ul the gap. The Ger mans had earefullv prepared for this offensive, whole divisions and army corps rehearsing the parts they were to olay when the moment came. Just before the assault, the Brlt- tlh lines were deluged with sb el la for a 'short period find with projec tiles charged with naxlous gas.

CHIDREN STUDY NEAR TRENCHES Shells Pass Wickedly Over Belgian Youngsters on 'Playgrounds SOMEWHERE IN BELGIUM. Feb 12. (Correspondence or The Asso ciated Press.) One of the mot amazing sights along the IteUlan front Is that of a school for chil dren which Is being maintained cloae to the fish ting lines by the array through General Rucqaoy, tne chief of staff. Here about 250 little folic whose homes are nearly are beina cared for during fho day in a school which is less than four mile from the German trenches. Great shells pass with their wick ed wall over the heads of the young ster ax they play about the groun Is. The detonations of the huge guns Is constant and often the school house rocks with the vibration. Fleets of German aairplanes circle about with their loads of enormous bombs. Hut the work of the school continue! Its regular course. The American Red Crofs is deep ly interested in this unique institu tion and Is helping it In every way possible. Major van Hchaick Jr., ae. ting commissioner for Belgium, In a repot t on the siiool said: "It would appear that these chil dren ought to be in a highly ner vous condition, but fn fact thev are about as sturdy a lot of little Flem ish boys and girls a I have seen. They never fin when the shells whistle or explode. One of the! favorite amusements Is to Jeer at German airplanes, and they are ab solutely fearless. It probably would aupear to many people that the dntv of the American Red Cross would be to help get these children out. In stead, we are giving them a new bar rack, and sending clothing and shos to help them stay. This Is on tho theory that it Is better for the chil dren to be with their parents than to be sent away. Reversing condi tions in former generations, we fin.l that the big towns are the places ot danger and the scattered farms pUc-et-. of comparative safety. This Insti tution is a day school where meala are served and instruction given and the children live at home." A member of the Reichstag says he sees a revolt of the German peo ple in the near future. But he may be subject to optical delusions. Here's hoping he is right. Exchange.

We know that. Incidentally, pur time is money. It's fifty-fifty. If we can gave you time, we can -save ourselves time -and we're out to economize the little golden minute, because they are mutually profitable. Did you ever check up on the amount of time yon have wasted in a dental chair? Isn't that one of the big reasons why you duck going to a tooth-plunger, because you just can't spare the hours, and hours that you have learned from past experience you will spend receiving cotton and conversa- tion? - ; . A busy man or woman, with lots of cares, thinks a good many times before he or she yields to grim necessity and steps np to the fang-fixer's. Tod often, the visit comes too late and there is a much longer stay with Mr. Dentist than there would have been any need for, had there been an j earlier call with the "S. O. S." V The average person, occupied with the daily routine oj making a living, must hail with genuine joy any tooth-expert who not only knows how to do but guarantees a speedy job of dentistry. New patrons of Painless Parker offices usually remark with astonishment at the rapidity with which dental opera tions are performed by the specialists in these offices. No lengthy waiting-room delays ; no fiddling around with pro longed examinations; no dilly-dally over preparations for the work; no cheap artifices to extend the job into a real "operation" or an expensive" 'call." Best of all, no charge made to hear the monologue of a professional chatterbox. Ton get the work done just as expeditiously as is consist ent with good dentistry. ; The reasons why this is done in all the Painless Parker offices are that we don't have to "string" our patrons along; ?e have too many patients to waste cither our own or their time ; we have practitioners who are skilled in their own . special lines and know how to work swiftly and surely and we don't care to substitute dilatoriness for dentistry.
