At the beginning of the attack we
had part of Avatet half of lluciiuont
and Edolslcux and Seirc. but the,
enemy had Moyennuvllle. Courcelles, '
Ablalnzovllle. half of Hucqiioy. Aolilct-'
le-I'etlt and lrles. A map showing the
sites of these, will give full' Idea of
thu two lines.
Our attack wax divided Into two
sections, a northern line of 10.000
yards' ft out. and a southern of R000
ards and It was Hnnnged that the
southern section should conn- Into ac
tion an hour later than tho northern.
I suppose because It had not io far to
go before reaching the railway In front.
Many of the attacking troopx were
of high standing and reputation. It
was hardly likely that our attack
would be u strategic siiipii-e. for the
enemy would naturally suppose that
after our sucress further south wo
would ntiilid htm hard at koine other
position, but the command hoped to
make this a tactical surprise, and m
It pioved. I
Night was very still, but as the
hours passed a wet mist formed over
the earth, though the sky lemalned
cloudless and sometimes one could .
see a star. So thick did the mist be

trees were dripping with umlstuie al
most like rain. Tow a id T o'clock the
first glimmer of dawn was jut per

I N THESE days the news from the mines is as vital to the
nation as the news from the front.
This company has considered from the beginning of
the coal crisis that the dealer's gravest responsibility to the
public is
to take only as many orders for coal
as he van deliver with certainty
Under the ruling of the Fuel Administration a con
sumer cannot ,ancel his order with one dealer and place
it with anotlVbr. Therefore, this company took it. as a
solemn responsibility that no consumer ordering from us
should he disappointed.
On June 1st, we had received orders for 160,000 tons
of Newton coal from domestic consumers .of Philadelphia.
Estimating on conditions then 'we concluded that we had
our work laid out for us until October 15th.
To take more orders would have been emphatically
unjust to those consumers who, by ordering of us, might
lose the chance of getting coal elsewhere.
Today more than half of our orders have been filled.
Our men, horses, and, motor trucks are laboring prodig
iously in the face of difficulties so that all coal may be
delivered promptly as soon as it arrives from the mines.
It should be remembered that no dealer today can
guarantee. definite dates of delivery for the dealer himself '
is entirely dependent on the regularity of his own supply,
and is seriously handicapped by labor shortage.
But it is the Newton working rule that "Every orcfer '
taken must be delivered and delivered as promptly. as we
get the coal and can handle it.'v
