France has aban doned her proposed e vil mobilisa tion. The new move is taken to mean in many quarters that the Hi hot gov ernment has the war situation ho well in hand that it will not be necessary to draft French citizenry between the ages of 16 and sixty for war work. War work wil Iremain volun tary in France. The dark economic cloud accom panied by sinister rumors of a bad winter to come following the fuel shortage of 1916-17 has also been shunted to an inconspicuous place on the horizon. Paris has the word of the Prefect of the Department of the Seine that the great metropolis will not feel the pinch of either hunger or cold during the coming winter. This official announces that the coal supply is assured and that food suo. plies will be pentiful. The conditions which caused Parisiens to stand in line before food emporiums and coal yards will be forestalled he 'declares and thereby emphasising that France Is suffering no great amount of wor ry over the ravages of 5erman submarines. Another piece of good news eman ates today from the ministry of com merce to the effect that Parisians will soon be supplied with "National Foot gear" and "National Cloth" for cloth, ing. This promises to be a real boon for modest purses as shoe leather has finally aviated to prohibitive price. The average price for re-sollng a pair of shoes is now ten francs $3 which Is more than double pre war tax. Men pay about $10 for u good pair of shoes and ladies must pay about $15 if they want the mode. The French national shoe will cost about t5 francs or $5, wear and comfort will be guaranteed but styie wiM not. It will be the national style. Fancy footwear will howevef continue on sale for those who warn to pay the price. The "National shoe will emfwypeia The "National Cloth will be guar anteed by the government of good quality in various shades at a nomi nal price. There will also probably be some check on greedy tailors who will attempt to charge too much for tailoring the national product. yoitxg wnxnv ,kts $ieo.- OOO rt-' AM, FIKM) Mil- J JONS. zzlJI ft " TWO WEDDINGS FOR IJfilAPIfJE .

B stopping off in Sterling for a brle( visit en route to the mountains in Co lorado for a vacation, Mr. and Mn George Keller of Ashland. Neb., dis covered that they were rich In land beyond their knowledge. Some years ago Mrs. Keller came to fitoneham neighborhood. Just across the line in Weld county. Then un married and seeking adventure, shl homesteaded a piece of land. It war a lonesome ife. but she stuck to it until she proved up. Then she went to Nebraxga and as the years passeo she gave little thought to the land beyond paying the taxes each yeai. When Mr. and Mrs. Keller visited Stoneham yesterday they saw mar vels.

Today she say Is worth $40. She has decided tc make it productive. ' J WASHINGTON, Aug. 7. The Brit ish-French assault on the German right flank has made a profound im pression here because, in the judg ment of many American Army of ficers. It is directed at the most vul nerable point on the entre German front. Complfte success for the Allen, sweeping the German line back from the sea along the entire Itelgiun coast, would be an immediate answer to the U boat warfare. The main North Sea bases for U boat operations would be stamped out. Uehind that achievement then would stand the possibility that the entire German line in France could be endangered by a flank attack . Reports from London or the front were still to meagre tonight to dia- lose the full scope of the new opera. tions. Some observers here were in clined to believe, however that unless the drive were supplemented by naval to.operatton, with a landing b'hin-i the present German front, complo'e success could not be expected. The discussion here brought out strongly the fact that many Ameri can officers who have studied the situation believe the German right flank offers the only real opportunity to bring -the struggle to a decisive Issue In a single campaign. The possibilities of the new offen. sive produce the suggestion to-day that if the Allied front could be ex. tended to the Dutch frontier the Netherlands might Join the Allies. Recent reports from neutral sources have Indicated that the Germans feared some such action by their little neighbor. There are officers who believe that with the Allies greater forces and more powerful artillery, they now could be certain of fairly quick suc cess If trench fighting could be aban. doned for the shift and strategy of field operation. The Germans, these officers say, also know this, nnd have no intention, if they can help it, of permitting any change in the battle scheme they have forced. In the Gem State Lumber Yard, did damage estimated at a hundred thou sand. Five carloads of Fords were destroyed. The blaze spent d to an le plant, cold storage plane and coal yard.
