Friday saw the Americans aud French hatter their way further eastward into the deep triangular salient, which has KoisSons, Itheinis and Chateau-Thierry at its points and successfully withstand a te'rithe counterattack by the Germuns on the plateau southwest of Noissons where the allied guns dominate this im portant strategic town.

FOR RUSSIA American Y. M. C. A. Workers Teach Returned Russian Soldiers Useful Trades ** ? With the Government at Washington prepared to lend economic and philanthropic support to Russia, the National War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A. 1r actively recruiting to reinforce the Red Triangle workers already manning huts over there. Agricultural experts, physical direc tors and regular Y. M. C. A. secretaries as well as other men familiar with welfare work in communities are being, sought. A further consideration of a definite policy toward Russia has served virtually as a "go-ahead" order to the association. The Y. M. C. A .lhrough all uncertainties of the past few months, has kept 100 of its secretaries in Russia. These men have been kept busy day and night in an effort to build up the morale of the citizens and soldiers of the unfortunate coun try. The secretaries today are in all parts of Russia. lu the dark days of Russia the American secretarieg "stood by" all over that country to serve the people in every way possible. Thousands of invalid prisoners were taken care of as they returned from Germany. Most all the men worn broken in health. They died, almost without exception, with curses against Germany. But greater even than their hatred was their wonder that their countrymen could have made "peace" with such an ?nemy. "The Y. M. C. A. leaders in Russia," said Dr. W. W. Alexander, direc tor of the War Personnel Board of the Southeastern Department, National i War Work Council, "have naver doubted the essential soundness of the Russian people. Despite all difficulties and inevitable losses and discour agements, the Y. M. C. A. haa remained in Russia, seeking to serve and watching for a better day. The day Is nefcr evidently coming." Fifteen new secretaries. With ability to contribute some constructive element to the Russian life'of the future are being searched for throughout the Southeastern Departnueat, Some agriculturists are wanted, some tmsiness men, but the call cones stronger for men skilled In rural Y. M. O A. and Community wortc. All are to go with the purpose of helping Russia help herself.
