Some time ago the workers at the Nancy depot of the American Fund for French Wounded took supplies and comfort bags to two of. their field am- bulances. The gifts were, greatly ap- preglated. and, on a return visit the American workers had. the pleasure of seeing the wounded men arrayed in some,of their nicest pajamas and hos- pital. shirts, looking warm and com- fortable. The doctors were, loud: in their praises and very grateful for the dressings and other things taken out, all of which were being used to good advantage, ‘ This small eulogy is meraly a pre- face that one may better understand the committee’s feelings when an invi- tation came from General D—— ask- ing them to lunch at his headquarters, which are in a small village some four miles back of the lines in a quaint old fermhouse with a big courtyard in front. Here the regimental band was drawn up to greet them with, a fan- fare.on their arrival. They continued to play throughout lunch, music quite unlike the uspal military mysie, for they use thelr native instruments, mostly wind and of wood, and play weird, haunting melodies in a minor key. There is a touch of sadness, in them and the call of the East as well.

W. last July negotiated ‘with the Farmers’ Nonpartisan league of North Dakota for a wage scale agreement. The league offered to nay workers $4.56 a day, but the proposition was finally rejected because the I. W. W. demanded $5 a.day as the minimum wage. Another communication written. by Edwards said that many I W. W. members were oppoged to’ recommendations against “booze” in. the organization’s propaganda in the northern wheat states. i BOOTLEGGERS POPULAR: _ Edwards wrote that the sight of hundreds of I. W. W. work-|= ers: rushing to the nearest towns when given a day off to spend their money for liquor with.bootleggers who charged $3 4 quart for whiskey and then sleeping off their .debauch in the fields con- vinced him that the declaration against liquor was wise. | ‘In a communication to William Crowley, Great Falls, Mont., Edwards observed: : : “We certainly are spending a lot of money on lawyers these days. Everybody. who gets in jail seems to want a lawyer.” In on of the official bulletins of the organization mention Was made of the fact that the defense of I.,W.

JOHN Morrext & C~ 3 Sioux Falls ~ - wath Bacon WAR SUMMARY |, The allied armies,are not neem dine the Germans to “get set’ for a seri: ous ‘blow af the western front. Here and there along the line there have bee nsudden blows at the German po- sitions, and in all of them ground was captured by the allies, The French have done the most of. this work. On the front east and ‘northeast of Locre, on the northern side of the Lys salient in northern France ahd just to the west of Kem- mel, where some of the more intense fighting of the war has been going on, the French have advanced their line over a two mile front Far to the south, near Rheims, the French have advanced into the enemy's positions as faras the third line of trenches. The Australians on the front be- fore Amiens have been active and have improved their positions. Heavy artillery firing is reported from several points along the front, it veing especially severe near Hangard and south of the Avge, near Amiens, The Germans also report heavy can- nonading in the region of Kemmel. Fierce werial Battles. The American sectors have. been the scenes of fierce aerial battles. The Americans suffered a severe loss when Raoul Lutbery of Wallingford, Conn., ‘one of their most darts air fighters, went to his death fn a thrill- {ng encounter above the city of Toul. The Germans have‘ lost several ma- chines, one of which is believed to be the one that accounted for Lufbery. “In the Italfan ‘theatre of the war the fighting in the mountains east of the Brenta river’ continues, reports telling of struggles on the slopes of the mountains. < The French «troops in Macedonia have taken the offensive near Lake Ochrida and have advanced to a depth of’ more than twelve miles at some points. The object of this operation appears. to be the strtightening of an awkward salient in the line.
