Girls’ Sewing h ' Club Work

The fust District Achievement Day was held at Coleman on July 28th with an attendance of one hundred and fifty club girls and leaders from the Western districts.

The work exhibited was of avery high quality, and one cannot praise the local_ leaders too highly for their untirlng efforts in teaching young girls the rudiments of good Sewlllg- That the girls themselves 9ll10y the club work is quite evident in their exhibits. It is pleasing that they are taking advantage of these courses as every young‘ woman should have a thorough nowledge of dressmaking. if for ‘l0 other rea- son than to enable her to know whether an article which she wishes to buy is durabl sewn and wiliwear well. But the best part of SBWIHE is that one can have the very best materials and be well dressed on the same amount of money it would take to buy very ordinary clothes which would neither wear as well nor look as nice.

The Weather Mari having being favorable an hour of sports was en- joyed before returning to the Hall to hear the second Year Demoli- stration and Tllird Year Talks. One of the highlights in the world of sports was the "Leaders Race" which was won by Mrs. George Beer of Coleman, closely contested by all the other leaders.

Who Would Know

Famous Author

NEW YORK, Aug. 6—Isa.bel Pat- erson of “Turns Wit-h a Bookworm" 1n The Helald Tribune entertained her friend Grace Uuckhart of the Vancouver Province at the time of the visit to New York of Margaret. Mite-hell, author of “Gone With the Wind."

(The total sale of the book is _l.- 690,000 if translations and forei n‘ sales are included. It has been pu - llslied in 11 languages.) But let Miss Paterson tell it:

Grace Luckhart didn't. ask to see any celebrities, and as it's the off season. we thought one literary party was a pretty good break.

Arriving (at a New York affair) we were Just ahead of another guest, obv ously a southern girl. She was small and cute, with bobbed brown hair. a faint suggestion of dimples and a smile. Mrs. Marsh was the name. l-Ier face was vag- uely familiar, but that's no help to us

In the course of conversation. she said something which gave us a. lead, We said brightly, “You are from Atlanta, we take it." She ad- mitted the fact, without stress, and began an amusing story aboutjihe southern network of cousins. and the peculiar southern ability to re- member them all to the ninth and 10th. degree, with real interest and affection. She said this was the time of year when the cousins cir- culate most freely, and she had only a day in New York because she had to hurry back to meet all the new husbands and offspring who would be introduced during the annual round of visits.

She had just came from a series of barbecues, lunches, dinners, teas. dances and breakfasts, extending. over half a dozen counties, some-

day. she told how she had first met her own husband. at a dance, where he overheard her reciting a select- ed list of relatives. and that he said afterward. he came of a num- erous family himself and recogniz- ed the fitness of things, and. when she married him, she promised he should never want for kin-and he hadn't.

“Atlantaﬁ we repeated, intend- lng to pursue some further inquiry. But someone was laughing at the time and jogged our elbow ently and said: "Don't you know tits is biargaret Mitchell?"

It showed us up sadly, for in fact we had never seen Margaret Mitchell. And there we were asking hei- politely if she came from At- 4 iantal Not that. she cared. She pre- ferred not in be recognized as she had 1118MB a flying trip to New York on business only, and we're probably doing her a dlsfavor by mentioning it at all.

b the Canadian Corps at the gdpenlng of the Battle of Amlens. All the hopes which Ludendorl! had built up throughout the earlier part of i918, his expectations of a. crushing victory for the German armies. his plans to lmpﬂﬁe D6669 on the Brit h and French were irmmmbly shattered when at 4.30 o'clock of the morning of Aug. 8 the Allies ushered in the last Hun- dred Days of e war with a triumph against which the enemy could not stand.

“The Eighth of the Eighth" is the term Canadians apply to the i; nlng stages of the Amlens bat- tl}: Two decades of review and re- trospect have not altered the con- viction which t-he tired but jubilant Ca-ndaian soldiers formed as they bivouacked on the bare hillsides of Sﬂnteﬂc on the night of Aug. 8- 10m. This was that they had achieved within the preceding hours i; victory lncomparably great- er than any that either of the con- tending forces had achieved on the Western Front before. The definite turn which the Battle of Amlens

gave to the war. the steady. un- relenting ressure maintained upon the defea ed enemy. culminating

in slngnatures applied to a serious of documents in a railway carriage at Rhotondes OIrNOV. 1i. 1918. were

the direct results of what the Carl- adian Corps accomplished at A

Ludendorffs bid for victory, from March to July 1918, had been punctuated by a series of titanic battles. l-le had attempted to breach the Western Front at half a dozen points. and almost he had succeed- ed. I-Ie missed comlfete victory by a. narrow margin. ‘ﬁlth an abandon torn of desperation he had thrown masses of troops into the blazing holocaust, utterly regardless of hu- man life lust so long there was hope of eventual triumph. That prodigallty was his undoing. The toll exacted by the defenders. the British and French, was terrific. Launch Attack

The German Army leader had assembled his very best troops in “storm divisions" and it was his very best that he lost from March to July. When the Allies wrested the initiative from him on Alli; the soldiers at his disposal were no longer the eager, well-trained and hard-fighting men who had brought him so near to victory. That was reluctantly avowed by the enemy commanders themselves in later days. and it was conceded also by the Allies.

COB-Willi! in Action

The three veteran divisions of Crops swept over the ridgas. cleared the enemy out of the valleys and fortified positions. Bitter figzhtinli ensued in the neighborhood of Aubercourt, Hangard Wood and in the northern sections at Marcelcave. But to all tasks the Canadians were equal. A (genial sun dissipated the mists. all a spectacle that was never again repeated in the Great War unfolded itself. On the whole five-mile front, the Canadian lines were revealed, advancing steadily across the hills and plateaus. ‘They were beyond the enemy gun-line, beyond his support and reserve positions, As one formations task was ended there was a brief respite. then another formation took 1t up and the advance was continued. Disconsolate groups of prisoners trudged back to the rear, some

escorted by slightly wounded Can- adians ell route to the air msts, others entirely on their own. The battle progressed. and a new ele- ment was interjected into Canad- ian operations. With the thinning mist the attacking troops. lookinq back. could see occasional small patrols of horsemen. ‘They rode carefully over the rolling hills, keeping behind the infantry. As the attack proceeded they became more numerous.

Cutting the centre of the front. along the marshy back of the Luce River. was the “Valley Road.“ Four hours from the opening of the bat- tle this roacl. resourided to the thuder of galloping horses. Wound- ed men returning from the ever- advancing battle-line stood by and cheered as regiment after regiment of cavalrymen thundered past.

The break-through? It had every appearance of such. The enemy guns silenced, the steady waves of troops could not be stopped. Here and there determined groups of enemy machine gunners ncltl out on the ridges. at Beatlcourt. Caveux and Marcclt-live. But on this line the cavalry took up the pursuit ros- silrr the wooden bidges at Igrincotlrt they swung eastward over the hills. Through the advanced waves of infantry they gallopetl. breasted the bare slopes beyond Caycux and off they went “into the blue.“ Behind them trudged more in- fantry. to exploit the great victory already gained. The ‘westerlne sun saw the Canadians deeply bulging th enemy's line. the point of the spearhead at Caix, about seven miles from the starting point.

Slowly the tanks waddled through the masses oi’ recumbent men and as they poked their bows into No Man's Land, a flare ascended a- bove the gun-line. Instantly an in- flerno broke loose. A thundering roar of gunfire. the reverberating coughs of the heavles mingled with the sharp barks of the light artillery, rocked the whole area. Through the mist. scintillating flashes danced alon the sky. dim- med only slightly the curtain that enveloped them. Fantastic lights of which there was no end. they ushered in the scream and the screech of shells. The explosions deafened the ears. Prom the Ger-
