And in them the British continue to hold the advantage. Another trench systeih—s barrier to the forward march of Field Mar shall Haig’s forces toward Douai—has been taken over a front of a mile in most sanguinary fighting. .The new position lies south of Oppy and runs almost to the outskirts of Gavrelle. The Britishers went into the fray with their usual intrepidity: The Ger mans resisted strongly, but ' King George’s men would not be denied and soon drove out the defenders of the po sition and entered it. Counter attacks launched by the Germans were unavail ing and at the close of the day the British were in full possession of their new gain and in appreciably better po sition than previously for a continua tion of their offensive eastward to ward Douai.

True economy lies not only in buy- ;ng wisely but also in making the full est possible use of what is bought War FacU. The People is at a loss to under stand how munition manufacturers, copper and steel men and others, who sell their products to the governnfent at u profit of from 300 to 1,500 per cent, are called “patriots” when the country newspapers are expected to give the government absolutely free the only thing they have for sale; i. e., advertising space. The makers of munitions get more for a big explosive shell than thousands of country edi tor! make in a years unremitting toil.4' We do not believe there is a more patriotic set of men in the country than the newspaper editors and they have been loyally assisting the gov. eminent in every way possible m re cruiting jnen for the army and navy, and they will continue thu good work by publish mg free reading rotiros We that until tto United aefca tto lemma to, frv* of c«m « The United States is the eleventh nation to enter the fight against Ger many.
