Statements mado ortlclally by General Pershing and 5tnjnr General 5tnrch re flect this confidence without divulging why. Their reasons nrc presumably linked with prospective moves about which the public may not bo Informed In advance. It is explained here that tho arrival of American troops on tho Plcardy plains has far more mllltnry significance than appears on the surface. The outcomo of the ptcsent fighting depends to a largo extent on tho matter of reervo forces which cttlnr side can throw Into tho fray.

Besides, the number of troops which the present participation of the United States will release from imme diate service Is admittedly nearer 500, 000 than 100,000. Of particular Importance In the opin ion of General Staff ofllcers may be tho fact that tho Get man high lotnmaiid did not calculate on America's Jumping Into the thick of the tight at this time. Of. flclal reports received at tho War De partment havo mado It clear that tier many made her rrlve now in order to exert maximum mlllt.irv pressure while her enemies were at their low ebb and presumably befote aid could bo tendered.

The Franklin Sugar Refining Company ANNOUNCEMENT OUR Government has requested that we- put at the disposal of the War Department our entire output of the "makings" "BULL" DURHAM tobacco. And we have complied fully, gladly. For whatever the Gov ernment wants, whatever it needs, it must have from us and from you fully and with a generous heart. We have been sending immense quantities of "Bull" to our men at the front, and at the same time trying to supply consumers at home. But now we are asked to give all our output: 36,000,000 sacks, 2,000,000 lbs., 100 carloads of "BULL" DURHAM every month. This call means more than just huge figures to me and I know it will mean more than figures to the hundreds of thousands of men every where in the country who "roll their own" and who look upon that little muslin sack of good old "Bull" as a personal, everyday necessity. It means that the Government has found that our fighting men need the "makings". But, if "Bull" is a necessity to you, here, in the peaceful pursuit of your daily life, how much greater its necessity to those splendid Americans who have gone to fight for you to win this war for you. I know that you will think of them as I do only of them. I know there will not be a single complaint. I know that you will give up your share of "Bull", however long you have enjoyed it, however close it is to you, as you will give up anything you have if it is made clear to you that our forces over there need it. That the Government has requested the whole output of "Bull", the night and day output of all of our factories, must make this abso lute need clear to you. And I know that you will not forget the little muslin sack gone for the present on its mission of hope and inspiration to our boys in the trenches. "Bull" will come back, with ribbons of honor.
