WILLAMFJTt RIVER AUOIST STAGE Aii uiu&wl um 10 Ligm r c 11 Raisfal AVith sUe of on foot ftu.i tea ! 0W tfc low w,ter amrk tb M':tl - i . . ' . Sinee May 19, there has been a rain-1 try to scrutinize carefully the class fall of only .67 of an inch and .60 of jification of married men where there this came in a heavy downpour on the iare no children ia the family, afternoon of July 23. While this reclassification of mar- Minto island is showing larger than ried men has been going on from time at any time during the past generation to time as conditions, slrauged, . the and although the official records have number last evening was the largest uwu epi since lBsm it is probable that very few livinir in Sslpin iiava mdh the river as low as at the presnt time. Opposite West Salem, there is so little water, about three feet, that the Spaulding Logging Company was oblia- ed to secure permission from the govern- ment to dredge in order that, thpro might be sufficient water to float logs from their logging camps. The greatest dry .spell in this secNa of the valley previous to this year was in the fall of 1917 when the river a gain was at so low an ebb that boats could scarcely reach to Salem. During the first two days of last November, the record up to that time was broken for a low stage of the river with one foot and eight inches below the low water mark. After the big flood of last Decem ber when the river reached a stage of 24 feet above zero at 2 o'clock on the afternoon ef December 20, the river has been gradually falling. By the first of January it had fallen to 11.7 feet a bove. On Feb. 1, it was down to 6.5 feet above, March 1, to 5.2 feet, April 1, to 4.5, feet, and on May 1, to 2.7 feet above. From that date to the present, the fall has been gradual but sure. There was only 1.08 inches of rain during May and by Juno 1 the river had fallen to 1.3 feet above. June experienced two traces of rain but no rainfall and by July 1, the river had fallen to seven tenths of a foot below the water mark. During July there was .67 of an inch rain but none in the upper valley to bring the river up and the gradual fall continued. It was One foot four inches below the first of the month and yesterday the low record of last November was equalled. Todav with a record of one foot ten inches below, the low stage record for the present generation is broken. There has been no time during the past 20 years that in a period of three months so little rain has fallen as dur ing the past months of May, June and July.

MEN'S HATS $a TO $6 HINDENBURG MAY BE COMPELLED 10 Extension Of Montdidier Sa lient Dangerous To Ger man Army ' By J. W. T. Mason (United Press war expert) New York, Aug. 9. (3:10. p. in.) British progress today south of the Sum me is extending the Montdfdier salient to a depth which has made it"ulr..ady very perilous for Von Hindenburg to de lay his evacuation. Great confusion prevails behind the German front and the principal line of coniiiuiiiications carrying supplies into Montdidier is under control of tli Brit ish guns. The Montdidier pocket is now about one half the size of the MnrnaLloyd George declared today in a speech pocket. The smaller the wedge, the w.Hlge, the more difficult Is it for the Germans to maneuver inside. Field Marshal Haig is bringing to bear on the Germans about Montdidier the same kind of pressure that Von Hin denburg couldn't resist north of the Marne. At tha same time, the British arc making the pocket deeper and there fore, more dangcrcuB by the drive to ward tho Homme, south of Peronn.-.'. A continuation of the British push may even send the Germans back to the southern part of the original Hinden burg line, if the kaiser delays his retire ment much longer. The persistence with which the Brit ish drive is being followed up south of the Homme shows tactical skill of a very high ord'r. The brunj of the work has. been thrown upon British unitH, who are following tho railway east of Amiens A dangerous salient has also been form ed along the important line of commu nication. Tlie possibility of Hupprechts forces being unablj to maintain con tact with the German crown prince ex cept by a wide detour to the reur, has ( been much increased by Field Marshal ' Haig's progress during tho past 24 huurs' The wedge which the British are now driving into the German lines east of Amiens is reaching a depth, where it may in fact, force Von Himlenburg tok make a general retirement nortn ot Montdidier, so as to prevent the dupli cation of the Marne pocket disaster. The peril of being caught in a trap of this character increases with the British progress toward Chaulnes. If tho British drive continues for the n xt 24 honrs to be as successful as it has since yesterday, Von Hindenburg will certainly be forced to prepare for an important realignment of his position! wuicn eannoi oe comeaieu nuui mt Germans at home as meaning a sMtere defeat.
