in
' London, Oct. 21. A resume by
Field Marshal Haig of the operations
-ot the American troops fighting on
the British front, given out today,
aays:
"In the past three weeks the 17th
and 30th divisions of the Second
American corps, operating with the
Fourth British army, have taken
part with great gallantry and sucoeea
in three major offensive operations.
besides being engaged in a. number
ot lesser attacks. In the course of
this fighting they displayed soldierly
qualities of a high order and have
materially assisted in the success of
our attacks.
"Having fought with the utmo.t
dash and bravery in the great attach
of September 29 in which the Hin-
denburg line was broken, and having
on this occasion captured the vill
ages of Belllcoivrt and Nauroy with
a large number ot prisoners, on Oc
tober 8 the troops of the Second Am
erican army corps again attacked in
the neighborhood of Montbrehain.
"In three days of successful fight
ing they completed an advance of 10
miles from Montbrehanl to St. Sou
plet, overcoming determined resist
ance and capturing several strongly
' defended villages and woods.
Throughout the past three days the
two American divisions have again
attacked dally and on each occasion
with complete success, . though the
enemy's resistance was most obstin
ate. "Fighting their way from St. Pau
let to the high ground west of the
Sambre canal, they have broken the
enemy's resistance at all points,
beating off many counter attacks and
realizing an advance of nearly five
miles. Over five thousand prisoners
and many guns have been taken by
the two American divisions in these
several engagements."

FINE HEALTH RECORD
IN THE CITY
With the closing of the schools
and all place ot public gathering,
because of the danger ot spread
Spanish influensa. the fact came out
that during the school year of 1917-
1S, there was not a death of a school
child in Granta Ps during wai
time. This also includes the pre
cincts and school districts Immedi
ately adjacent to Granta Pass, from
which .11 death certificate, come toicars and with headquarter, at Port-
the local health officer.
We think this Is quite an enviable
record when we take into considera
tion the tact that there are close to
one thousand students and pupils In
dally attendance at the various grade
and high schools of this city. A nil
death rate per thousand extending
over a period of almost nine months,
where children and young adults are
thrown together dally in class, and
other assembly work, under the
most favorable conditions for the
contraction and spread of disease.
While it was not deemed neces
sary to close the schools during the
past year on account ot any epi
demics, the lid is now on and should
stay on until all danger ot the pres
ent epidemic has subsided, because
we are dealing with an epidemic of
a most dangerous and , treacherous
disease. An epidemic which In one
week more than doubled the death
rate among the men ot our national
army. And In SO 'cities ot the I. S.
there were over 10,000 deaths in
seven days from influensa and pneu
monia immediately following intlu
enxa. .
Neither was Granta Pass missed
by any of the epidemics peculiar to
'this part of the country during the
autumn and winter months. We
had them all. We also had the clos
est sort ot cooperation between the
local health officer and Professor
Imel and his staff of teachers.
In discussing the matter. Dr. J. O.
Ntbley, city health officer, said;
"Too much praise cannot be given
Superintendent Imel and the teach
ers working under him for their
keen observation ot the physical con
dition of the school children, and
their early detection ot the slight
est sign or symptom ot sickness
among the children. Also tor the en
forcement of the rule, 'that any child
who is sent home, or is absent from
school on account of sickness, must
first obtain a certificate from the
health officer.' With the same effi
ciency and cooperation there is no
reason why the same record should
not be. kept up daring the present
school year."
"Cover up each cough and sneeze.
If yon dont you'll spread disease."

of the Josephine county chapter of
