By Associated Praia
While there has been no renewal
of the smashing offensive on a large
scale Inaugurated by the allies la
Flanders since Tuesday, the incessant
pressure on German lines la begin
ning to tell In the further yielding of
ground.
The British yesterday capturedlhe
village of St. Julian. The French
moved ahead last night.
The Germans have launched a num
ber of counter attacks against the al
lied lines since the big offensive waa
checked by the storm and, mud, but
these efforts, under the supervision of
Prince Rupprecht, have been without
result save the useless destruction of'
many Teuton soldiers.

Let Klamath Falls
Get Busy'
Potlaad Uoitto help Klamath Falls. The Portland Chamber of
Commerce la sending out letter this week to aU, the commercial bodice
in the state, asking co-operation In getting the people of Oregon to visit
Crater Lake, and to help advertise it afterwards. This Is, of course, a
very good move for the atate of Oiegon to promote, aa it wiU get an
Oregon attraction before, the -public eye, which If located la CaUforaU
would have been heralded from const to coast for a quarter of a ceaiarjr.
A very large portion of the people who visit Crater Lake also visit
Klamath Falls, aad Incidentally leave enough sample of the cola of the
realm in the pocketa of our merchant and business men to make aae
tantial increase la oar reveaue. No community la 'the' state will beaeat
more and few communities aa much as KWmatu Falls by the proposed
move of the Portland body.
Shall we, then, aa a community, not get behind tills movement aad
push it with every lueaas la our power? Shall It be aald ot Klamath
Falls tlurt It was necessary for distant districts to do the boosting which
brought the strangers to the attraction at our very doers?
Because of the fact that this city la so near the lake, aad has beam
visited by nearly everyone, It will aot be accessary, verhaaai te term
clubs to visit It, but we caa certainly push the alaa of aeatdtaig the pestal
