THIRD YEAR OF WAR
ENDS WITH GERMAN
ARMS HARD PRESSED
[Continued From First Page.]
man and Austrian empires, featured
by the fall of Chancellor von Beth
mann-Hollweg, have led the open
discussions of peace in the German
rcichstag as the fourth year dawns.
Portugal and Rumania threw in
their fortunes with the entente
shortly after the third year began.
The United States entered in April,
followed by Cuba and Liberia. Pan
ama pledged the United States her
aid in defending the Panama Canal.
Costa Rica put her naval bases at
our disposal. China, Bolivia, Guate
mala and Brazil severed diplomatic
relations with Germany. Uruguay
expressed her sympathy for the
United States.
New Nations Ilom
Three new nations were born dur
ing the year. Poland was created a
kingdom under German and Aus
trian direction. In Mecca the Ara
bians overthrew Turkish rule and
declared independence. In the Bal
kans liberty was restored to Albania,
which was established as a republic
under Italian political protection and
with French military aid.
An estimate made two months be
fore the end of the third year—voiced
bv Arthur Henderson, of the British
war council—placed the number of
men killed at 7,000,000 since August,
1914 French general headquarters
recently estimated 1,500,000 Germans
had been killed up to March 1. Mr.
Henderson estimated the total cas
ualties at more than 45,000,000.
America Lands Army
The first and second American
contingents of troops landed In
France on June 26 and 27 and an
other to-day. '
Nearly 10,000,000 Americans of
militarv age registered on June 5
under the selective draft law, and
from these are being selected the
men who will comprise the great
army contingents which America is
planning to send to Europe.
Fighting on the western front dur
ing the third year of the war may
roughly be divided into six phases—
two in the latter part of 1916 before
winter called a halt and four after
the entente offensive was resumed li
the early spring.
Kaiser Holils On
At the close of the second year
the Germans were still unwilling to
concede failure in the operations
centering on Verdun. After August
S, 1916, the French gained the as
cendency. culminating in the retak
ing of Douau, Thlaumont and Fort
Vaux, with thousands of prisoners
and many guns. By November the
French had once more come into
possession of the complete circle ot
the Verdun defenses.
The second phase dates back to
the commencement of the Franco-
British offensive—the first Battle of
the Somme —in July of 1916. By
mid-September this had reached
such proportions that the Germans
were credited with bringing up seven
new divisions against the British,and
live against the French. It was esti
mated that 3 8 Germa" divisions, or,
based on the strength of those Ger
man units at that period, about
"60,000 men, opposed the British
and French on this twenty-mile
front. In this battle the British air
supremacy became dominant. By
November the British and French
had taken St. Pierre-Divlon, Beau
mont-Hamel and Beaucourt and had
penetrated German positions for a
depth of six miles.
"ViitorioiMi Retreat"
In the spring; the Germans, antici
pating a resumption of the Sqmme
operations, began what has become
known as the "Hlnderburg victorious
retreat" to newly established German
lines. In this second battle of the

PLEASANT OUTING
FOR STORE FORCE
Schcll's Seed Store Enjoys a
Picnic at Hcrshey Thurs
day Afternoon
Fun and lots of it, and a Jolly good
time, with every one happy, made
the picnic of the Shell seed store,
held at Hershey Park, Thursday,
one of the most thoroughly enjoy
able events of the sort ever arrang
ed by the store force.
Two large motor trucks and tour
ing cars conveyed the party to and
from the park, amid the merry din
of horns and different noise-making
instruments. Various races such as a
peanut race, walking race for the
married women, running race for the
men, running race for the women
and girls, and short distance dashes
for the children, added to the pleas
ure of the outing as well as the
numerous amusements of the park,
including swimming, boating and
dancing.
A delightful picnic supper, served
in true out-of-door fashion, conclud
ed the day's active enjoyment for
those in attendance, who were: Mr.
and Mrs. Walter Schell, and son,
Metlen Schell, Mr. and Mrs. J W.

Milton Garfinkle, 1219 North Second
street.
Somme, Bapaume, Irles, Peronne,
Nesle, Fayette, Gricourt, Vaux, Roye,
Tergnier, Ham and hundreds of
other positions were lost by the
Germans. In an evacuation which
French critics regard as memorial
the Germans left a track of wide
spread devastation which aroused
world-wide indignation. The Brit
ish claimed capture of nearly 5,000
prisoners in the three months of this
German retirement for a depth of
from five to fifteen miles along a
front of about 46 miles.
In April the British transferred
their offensive northeast of Arras,
forcing Von Hindenburg to redis
tribute his forces along a fifteen
mile front. Canadians played a his
toric part in this fighting. Monchy
le-Preux was taken; and Vimy Ridge
was captured after one of the world's
bloodiest battles. Canadians held the
ridge against desperate counter at
tacks. This success east of Arras
turned Hindenburg's northern pivot,
and British critics regarded it as the
greatest in the history of British
arms in the present war. This offen
sive, continued, placed the British
astride the Hindenburg line and the
Germans retired to positions a mile
or two west of the Drocourt-Queant
line. These they he' ' as the third
year closed.
Many Killed
Meanwhile the battles of Cham
paign and Aisne had been carried on
by the French, who in April captured
Auberive. In the first days of Cham
paign offensive, one of the greatest
struggles of the war, the Germans
sustained an estimated loss of 100,000
killed, wounded and taken prisoners
through their desperate defensive op
erations. Fighting In these regions
continues after three months, during
which the French have advanced
from one to five miles along a fifty
mile front. The present French line
runs from northwest of Soissons,
tnrough Rheims to Auberive.
In June, 1917, the British began
au attack on Meusines and Wyschaete
in an effort to straighten out the
Ypres salient. Again British flyers
dominated the air. The British had
spent an entire year mining the
earth for this offensive, which was
begun with an explosion so terrific
that it was heard in London. Beyond
Messines, for two miles east and
northeast, the British won and con
solidated ground, capfcured more than
7,400 prisoners and great stores of
artillery. Gaining every objective,
they placed themselves astride the
Ypres-Comines canal, having ad
vanced three miles on an eight-mile
front. Portuguese and Belgian troops
aided in this offensive. In recent
days the fighting there had been
confined to raiding operations.
Germans Suffer Heavily
It is estimated that during April,
May and June ihe Germans suffered
350,000 casualties on the western
front.
The Russians, having in June of
1916 begun an offensive from the
Pripet Marshes to the Rumanian
frontier, speedily captured Czernow
itz and the rest of Bukovina, to
gether with Brody in Galicia, and
in August they entered Stanislau for
the third time in the war. These
operations forced the Austro-Ger
mans to relinquish lines they had
held throughout the winter of 1915-
1916.
This Russian operation broadened
by mid-July so that it extended from
the Gulf of Riga to the Rumanian
front, a distance of 800 miles. The
Germans were reported to be rush
ing troops from the Italian and
French fronts. Widespread enthusi
asm was created throughout Russia
and the moral effect on the other
entente powers was tremendous.
Russ Front Crumples
Before th ©third year closed, how
ever. Russia's offensive sutfered a
collapse. German spies, anarchists,
peace fanatics and other agitators
succeeded In destroying the morale
of some of the Russian troops in
Galicia, where a retreat became nec-

affection among the Russian troops.
Rely On I T -Boats
Except for submarine operations,
naval writers have found little to
engage their attention during the
past year.
Germany continued to rely on
XT-boats. This policy led to unre
stricted warfare which drew the
United States into the conflict.
U-boats destroyed an estimated
gross tonnage of more than 4,000,000
during the year. This included
2.000,000 Hying the British flag sunk
from February 25 to July 1.
America's destroyer flotilla arrived
in British waters in May. Without
the loss of a ship or a man. Ameri
can warship convoyed the first
American troops to France. Two
submarine attacks were made on the
transports. At least one U-boat was
sunk. American warships took over
from British and French vessels the
uatrol of American coasts. Brazil
added her navy to ours in South
American waters.
Cities from Bagdad to London
have been subjected to raids, notable
attacks being those by German Zep
