Germans Compelled - to Give Up Pieces of Territory Won (Continued” From Page One.) must wait the arrival of new) | | posal to the ministerial council of troops. The enemy is moving up new troops and. supplies along ing bombarded heavily by the British. Germany probably still has many reserve divisions, and there is little doubt that her masters will use up the last divi- sions in their attempts to crush the British or French. ‘The Brit- ish bore the brunt of the present campaign, which will end its first month today, and their line still is unbroken. The enemy has not been able to pierce it and roll up the side as he apparently intended. RESERVES INC! REASE Facing them, on the western fronts, the Germans find British, French, American, Belgian, Por. tuguese, and Italian troops. The number is increasing constantly, while the Germans undoubtedly | ; have used up their veteran divi- sions in the battles of the past month. The Germans cannot halt now, if they would attempt to crush the allies while they yet have strength® Field Ms arshal Haig’s fabian tactics have been more than a match for the strong, head-on rushes of the Germans. In a month of the heaviest fight- ing of the war, the Germans have gained nothing the allies could not afford to lose, when at the same time, they could inflict losses more than commensurate with the value of the positions sacrificed. now are in a better position for an overpowering offensive than they were on March 21, BOMBARDING DING OF PARIS Paris, April 20.—Yesterday’s long range bombardment which consisted of three shots at wide intervals resulted in no casual- ties and little damage.

D., April 20/—At the meeting held in the opera house for the purpose of counting the votes resulting from the- canvass, which was made to ascertain the sentiment for or. against Community church in Cooperstown, Rev. Keedy was el- ected to act as chairman, and G. B. Edmondson, secretary. ‘The votes were counted and it was found that nearly 1500 people had ‘voted. .on the proposition. Of tif{is number an overwhelming majority was found to be in favor of a_ non-sectarian Community Church, the. remainder of the votes being cast for the’ vari- ous denominations. Methodist, Con- gregational, Baptist, and others. of the denominations, the Methodists received the highest number; 28. From the result of. this vote, it is easy to sce where the English speak- ing people of this city and vicinity stand on the Community church proposition, church members as’ well ‘as those who are not at present affil- jated with any church. A motion was made by-one of the leading church men present, seconded and carried, that an efofrt be made at this time to reduce the number of our English. speaking churches to two and that a program for the services be worked out that would do away with the overlapping of one service upon the other, This, of course, is up to the church people, themselves, and is a step in the right direction, which may eventually result in that most desirable institution, a non- sectarian Comunity church. In connection’ with the vote taken, it is interesting to note that many people at present affiliated with churches, voted the’ non-cestarian ballot, and, in every instance-the churches ‘polled less than half their strength for their particular’ denomination, and running as low as one-fifth.
