SCENE OF RUINS BY LOWELL MELLETT (United Prean Correspondent) WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN FRANCE, Aug. 30.—(Night) ‘The ground over which the British are now fighting shows little new devastation since it was last occupied by ther. The havoc wrought by the Huns in thelr previous retirement wan so complete there was little left to destroy. It ts even oubtful, should the war last another four years, that these barren fields could be made a tnore complete waste than now are. An a matter of fact, however rapidity of the Rritish advance is testified to by the fact that there are few signa of the recent fighting. The chief landmarks are the samo rusty wrecks of tanks and the same enor mous mine craters of a year ago.

No. Just taking a nap between Drives. It’s time to wake up, though. The Drive to fill our quota of the War Savings Stamp Loan has been on now for several weeks, and it is beginning to look as if Seattle’s enviable record in every- thing it undertakes might be impaired by failure in this one thing. Why? Have we lost our Pep? No! We iust haven’t taken it seriously enough. But failure for Seattle in anything is a serious matter. There isn’t such a word in our lexicon. We have been taking a brief respite, but we are rested now, and it’s time to go OVER THE TOP again. War Savings Stamps are one of the best and safest invest- ments obtainable, and you are depositing with the best Banker in the world—Uncle Sam. Your investment is not only safe, but is being employed in the greatest cause ever undertaken by a Nation. Every War Savings Stamp is a nail driven in the coffin of oppression and a rose twined in the hair of Liberty.
