YANKEES SEE ONLY SMASHING VICTORY In Letters Home Heroes of the Marne Are Full of Enthusi asm Over Manner in Which Huns' Finest Troops Were Met and Completely Defeated After their first clash with the enemy, Pennsylvania boys are so confident of their ability to lick the Hun that they are shouting it 3,000 miles across the seas. In their letters home, heroes ot the Iron D'vision's gallant stand at the Maine are giving proof of a morale bom of victory. Their trust in the pi on est of the American arms is the outstanding theme of their messages. They wr'ce that "the war will be over by Ob.-istnius.' They boast that a Yankee "is as gopd as three Huns " They chafe at wounds which keep them in a hospital and away from the firing line "where the boys are still driving them back." Claude H. Rowles. of Clearfield, with Company B, One Hundred and Ninth Infantry, is in a base hospital with shrapnel wounds. "1 am going to learn to speak Ger man." he writes to his parents, "for I think by the rate the Hun was goin£ when I saw him last we will need to speak that lingo instead of French. The Hun is a brave man behind two or three feet of earth and a machine gun, but when he meets the cold strip of steel he is down on his knees saying 'Kam erad.' " , c - Sergeant "Jimmy" Anderson, ot Company I. One Hundred and Tenth Infantry, writes to his mother at Greensburg: "The people of Greensburg can be proud of Company I. It did its bit, it any one ever did it. They knocked out some of our men.' but we killed two for every one they wounded oi killed ot our company. t "We took places that were full of machine gun A Some of our men killed as many as eight Germans. We did work that I never guessed we could do." . T , Lieutenant Paul Howe, of free dom, Beaver county, with the One Hundred and Sixty-fifth Infantry, provides an officer's viewpoint in this letter to his father; "No one fought better nor agains. better troops than just plain Ameri cans. We are all so confident and delighted with everything in particu lar and general that we can t sit still." . , „ „ Tom Nase, of Stroudsburg. was a dispatch runner in the Marne battle. •Everywhere Dead Germans "We certainly did lick the Ger mans." the boy writes to his mother "We killed therti off ten and fifteen to our one. Everywhere you can see dead Germans. "To-day 1 was over in one place where we gave them hell. I saw one dead American with his gun and bayonet and fourteen dead Germans around him. so you see how we give it to them." „ _ , li Hours Without Pood First Lieutenant A. G. Timm. once a druggist of this city, now of Com pany E, One Hundred and Twelfth infantry, which is in France, u_is written home graphically of the re cent fighting on the Marne and Voslc. in part as follows: "Was up on the front all the time since July 2. In fact, I am there yet. but the Germans have been running away from us so fast that we could not keep up. We were right in the big drive that the Ger mans started and were moved around on the flank to take part in the coun terattack. "And it was some big show. One day when we were on the front line we drove them for .seven kilometers. Had quite a number of killed and wounded that day. We were con gratulated by generals (French and American) for the good work we did. In the marines they get crosses for things that our fellows do every day. "Unbelievable things happen every day over here. Right now a battle between airplanes Is going on over our heads. They are shooting at one another with machine guns, dodging and ducking one another, at the same time taking dives straight down to dodge, while machine guns and cannon are shooting at the Ger mans all the time. "During the drive the kitchens of our battalion could not keep up with u4 and the whole battalion was with out a mea! for sixty-six hours. Never thought men could go that long without food and very little sleep, but they did some good fighting be sides. Here is another hard one to believe. I have not had my clothes or shoes off from July 2 to July 30, except on July 10 and July 30. At night we always sleep with our boots on. Meet All Dangers "We hava faced all kinds of dan gers. On the. fifteenth we were gass ed for about eight or nine hours; besides thai, they threw more than a thousand shells of all sizes during that morning. We were hit rather hard. Lieutenant Orr was instantly killed. Several days later we got another lieutenant to lake his piace, and on the twenty-fifth- he went the same way. "Just l>ti'ore we came here it rain ed for three days, so you can imagine how mucn mud is here. The roads were awfui. The Germans retreated over these roads, tried to get their cannon, etc.. along, and many a one was stuck it> the road and blocked our way. Shell-holes of immense size were all over, especially at cross roads. Then we went through that mud, with all our wagons, etc. Never saw so much n.ud in my life. " 'Bud' Kyan and i were together most of the time during the last month, and by the grace of God we are still here and are hoping and praying that we get through the war. 'Bud,' like every man in the company, reads his Testament regu larly. Uno ol the most impressive sights is to see our battalion at pray er service just before we go over the lop. Every battalion has a chaplain now. He is a prince, too. The Kev. Mr. Mann from Augusta, Ga., stays with us where the bullets and shells are the thickest. When we have no doctor handy I bandage the men and he consoles them. But the song services and prayers the night bet cue will never be forgotten." With three shrapnel wounds, Cor poral William J. Boland, of West Hamlin, is in a base hospital. He writes to his parents: "1 suppose you get all the news in the paper about how the Americans are chasing fritz. I'm sorry 1 couldn't stay in the game longei. The Americans are surprising the world, and front what i saw, I think one American is as good as two Bodies." Lieutenant Robert L. Butler, 6f Bethlehem, with a machine gun bat talion, writes of a gallant defense by the Yankees on July 28 and 29: "The Bochc had a notion that he was going to put over a heavy bar rage, follow it up with his shock troops to dean up the remnants, ami then there would be nothing left but to march through. "Instead of the Americans retreat ing, they came back at the Boehe with an attack. Our artillery gave him hell. German prisoners say that they have never had to stand such territic artillery tire before. Our doughboys went forward, met strong resistance, but they kept on going forward aro are still going." Private Robert Hunters, of Beaver writes: "If those in the states who don't think the Americans are doing any thing over here could see what we have seen I know they would change their :une. We are tight on -he Boche's heel-! all the time, and where we are American artillerymen are manning Gernfan guns." Another lrcn division soldier, Pri vate Kimber Whary, of the 109 th infantry, writes that his unit is back in a rest camp. Expect \\ ur Over by Christinas "The way the Boche is getting beaten, ' he writes, "makes me think the war will be over before I go in again. 1 guess you all have re..d in the papers- how the American boys have beaten the Germans, and they sure dia heat them bad. If the Germans keep on running like they are, wo will all be sailing home by Christmas." Harry F. Stevanus, of Coal Run. tecentlv reported missing, is in a hospital in France, where wounds madk it necessary to amputate one of his legs above the knee. From the hospital ho writes to his young bri.le. whom he married last Christmas. "I Drought down at least six Ger mas with my gun. But when they got me. I hey stole my revolver and I was sad. as I loyed it. It was an old friend." Drafaed boys from western Penn sylvania have been in action. Word has'been received that Frank Rey nolds. of Brownsville, of the 319 th infantry, has been wounded. William Adams, of Hawley, draft ed last June, transferred to the 146 th infantry, and John Brown, of the same town, with the First Engineers, have been wounded. Recent cispatches indicate that several Harrtsburg soldiers are fight ing with the famous Western Penn sylvania regiment—the l nfantry, formerly the "Fighting Tenth." Captain E. J. Stackpole. Jr., 'of this city is in command of Company M of the 110 th and for several months at 'Camp Hancock was division officer in charge of bayonet practice, returning to his company shortly before the division sailed for France. i This week an inquiry came from Dubois from relatives of Raymond Lingle. a private in Captain Stack pole's company, who was killed in the heavy fighting in the Marne salient. ' A son of Mr. and Mrs. Hawk, of Woodbine street, this city! who has made the supreme sacrifice was a member of the 110 th. Sev eral members of Camp M have been , killed and wounded in the recent fighting. Use McNeil's Cold Tablets. .^.d" DON'T TRUST THE PACIFISTS, WARNS COL. ROOSEVELT Former President Pleads For 1 Speeding Up of War Program Springfield. 111., Aug. 27.—Speed up the war, prepare to defend ourselves afterward and make ready to solve the industrial social problems which will come with peace, were the de mands of Theodore Roosevelt ex pressed in an address he delivered here to-day. Colonel Roosevelt spoke at the Cen tennial celebration of the admission of Illinois to statehood. "The two great needs of the mo ment, ' he said, "are to insist upon thorough-going and absolute Ameri canism throughout this land, and to speed up the war; and secondarily to these needs come the needs of begin ning even now to make ready, to pre pare for the tasks that are 4o come after the war, the task of preparing so that never again shall war find us helpless, and the task of preparing for the social and industrial problems which this earth-shaking conflict of w '" leave in its ruinous wake. Io insist upon thorough-going, 100 per cent. Americanism among all our people is merely another way of saying that we insist upon being a nation proud of national past and confident of our future as the great est of the nations of mankind; for if we permit our people to be split into a score of different nationalities, each speaking different language and each pay ing its real soul homage to some national ideal overseas, we shall not he a nation at all, but merely a poly glot boardinghouse; and nobody feels much loyalty to a polyglot boarding house or is proud to belong to it. "We are not internationalists. We are American nationalists. We in tend to do justice to all other nations. But in the last four years the pro fessed internationalists like the pro found pacifists have played the game of brutal German autocracy, the game of the militaristic and capitalistic tyranny which now absolutely rules the Prussianized Germany of the Hohenzollerns. American pacifism has been the tool and ally of German militarism, and has represented, and always will represent, deep disloyalty to our beloved country. "For the moment the pacifists and internationalists and pro-Germans dare not be noisy. But let our peo ple beware of them as soon as the UrEfEfSfß/15T3JSf2/BfgfEsfsf3/3f2fZr3fßfßr£f3JX3 i I I The Sale We Promised You | | Tomorrow, Wednesday | IT T 7Q HUNDRED DRESSES!
