SUDDENLY AND DEAL
GERMANS HARD BLOW
xrey-Coated Troops of Hindenburg
Are Hurled Back to Average Depth
of 1,500 Yards on Three Mile
Front
Field Marshal von Hindenburg's
roops east of the forest of- Nieppe
rot a nasty and unexpected blow to
lay when the British suddenly drove
orwari i a surprise attack along a
ront of more than three miles 'and
curled the startled grey-coated sol
hiers back to an average depth of
.,500 yards. The operation was an un
iualilied success from its inception,
mnd the attacking infantry reached
ill their objectives.
By this thrust the Blritish not only
iave greatly improved their position
n this important and much contested
lector, which lies just north of Mer
rille, but they inflicted heavy punish
nent on two hostile divisions that
vere holding the line here--the Thir
.y-second division of Saxons and the
Forty-fourth reserve division of Prus
;ians.
Large numbers of the enemy were
tilled in the hurricane onsinught and
wine 2;>0 had been collectedi in the
rison cages before noon.
Tlie front of the attack was 6,000
yards in length and lay approximately
)etween Vieux Berquin on the north
md Pont Tournai, which is 2,1 ,0
yards northwest of Merville, on the
South.
West of Merville the British and
German lines here had been jammed
up almost against the edge of the
Nieuppe forest with the resuit that
the British felt a lack of elbow room.
It was in order to acquire more lee
way that today's assault was pro
jected.
The objectives settled upon lay
along the winding little stream known
is Plate Becque.
Piussians and Saxons were holding
;his zone.
The first stages of the drive were
omparatively easy. In fact, all the
inai objectives were reached with
)ut much <lificulty.
The losses among the storming in
!antry for the entire engagements
'ere extremely light. Australian
roops on the left of the columns car
.1 out a stimulated attack of their
>wn which had an amazing result,
dding nearly half a hundred prison
~rs.
ihe morale of the prisoners taken
oday was not high. These men and
>thers captured recently have appear
!d to be much disheartened by their
ailure to get Digger result sin their
>ffensive.
These men have professed to have
elieved that the United States was
iot going to be able to render much
Issistance to the Allies. The helpless
iess of the United States is being
)reached assiduously to the troops by
he German high command.
With the German officers, naturally
t is different, for they have no. de
usions on the subject.
The British pushed off at 6 o'clock
his morning after a sharp bombard
nent, just as the white mists were
)eginning to arise along the numerous
treams which thread their tortured
way through the regions. Statements
y prisoners show that the enemy
gad not the slightest expectation of
he British taking the initiative. The
.,ermans Celt so secure that they were
levoting most of their time to a cam
>aign against the epidemic known lo
ally as the Flanders grippe.
i ne British were over the top at
he enemy before the latter realized
heir danger. Machine gun posts were
stormed and cleaned out with hand
renades and bayonets. Where the
.ermans were holding a stretch of
rench the attacking troops rushed up
with rapid firers and swept the ditch
as with an intense fire that annihilat
d the defenders.
LEND--NOT GIVF
Ini asking people to invest in war
avings and war thrift stamps, the
government is not asking them to
:ontribute money.
It is merely asking for the use of
noney, and is willing to pay liberally
or it.
The government simply wvisheis to
~mploy .your money and pay you for
ts services just as it would employ
ou and, pay you for your services.
You will get your money back with
nterest--comnpound interest at the
ate of 4 per cent per annum. The
itamps mature in five years, but you
~an cash them any time you wvish be
pore, the date of maturity and still
~et mnterest-at three per cent.
If you need the services of your
noney before five years, the savings
tamp handedl to the postmaster will
). the letter of resignation, and you
'll get your money back with addi
ional payment for the time the gov
~rnmnent has usedl it.
There is no red tape, no bother, no
mcertamnty, no worry. It is the simp
est, safest, andI most satisfactory in
reatment you can make.

JElTING TIIE HABIT
THAT MAKES PEOPLE RtICHl
Rich men save to get money to in
'et. 'Their investments make more
noney for them to invest. Saving
omes first, you see, and they can be
nadeci a habit.
The government of the United
>tates is giving us all a chance to
>wn its own "stock", andI it wants to
telp us build the thrift habit.
A quarter is all you need to start.
