Military experts believe the Germans will retreat to the line of Hartennes-Jaulgonne as speedily as possible. If forced from that position, it is thought they will fall back to the line of Soissons-Fere en Tardennois-Chatillon. If driven from that line, they will probably retreat to the line of the Vesle river, which is a very strong defensive position.

U. S. Merchant Marine to Bring Prosperity to Its Neighbors

Miss Mary Heidelman went to Dayton this afternoon to be the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Gridley over the week end. Miss Matilda Feldman.

who is also visiting there, will return i

Sunday evening with Miss Heidelman.

(By Associated Press) PHILADELPHIA, July 26. LatinAmerican diplomats, the guests of the shipping board at an inspection of the Hog Island shipyard, were told today by Chairman Hurley that the great merchant marine now being built by the United States must bring prosperity to American's neighbors as well as to this country, or the pride of the United States in the achievement will be diminished. "You may send back to your own peoples the word that these ships will not be used exclusively for this nation's aggrandizement in peace," he declared, "any more than they are used for such aggrandizement in the war that is now waging. Our duty now is to build a bridge of ships to our fighting front in France. Our expectation is that a large part of this bridge will be used to connect us more closely with our neighbors when the war Is over a bridge that will be used as freely and with quite as much advantage by our neighbors, as ourselves. "It has been laid down as a rule of our conduct at home, during the war that no excessive profit shall be made out. of the struggle of humanity. That rule will net be lifted when peace comes." Visit Shipyard. Mr. Hurley spoke at a luncheon in the diningroom of the Internaitonal Shipbuilding corporation, with the staccato .rattle of pneumatic hammers flaintly audible from the world's greatest shipbuilding yard outside. After the lrncheon served immediately, they were taken over the yard and its fifty ways, from which the first ship will be launched August 5, and from which Mr. Hurley told the visitors It Is expected to launch three ships week. "The world's greatest shipyard, established here," said Mr. Hurley, "was part of our answer to the challenge of tho German government, which set out to sink our ships, and. our cargoes, and American citizens travelling the ocean highways. It was intended primarily to serve civilization in the great war emergency, but it will serve civilization as well in the enduring peace that will be borne out of the victory of the Allies and America. "The ships that are being built by the United States as instruments of war are designed to serve equally well as the instruments of an enduring peace. The great fleet that this coun

try is building will be operated after the war upon principles which recognize human and national rights and equities. That fleet will serve LatinAmerica as it serves the people of the United States. It will serve the world, as America Is now serving the world In fighting for the cause of liberty. "When the war is won, as It must be if this hemisphere is to be freed from the constant menace of militarism, the ships that have served their military purpose, will play a large part in bringing the neighboring nations of this continent closer together, reducing the delays In making personal and commercial contact, and cementing the bonds of comradeship. "The great merchant fleet, created out of an imperative war need, has been dedicated by America to the cause of liberty your liberty as well as ours and so long as the American flag floats at the mast head of a single ship, that cause shall never be forsaken."

317 Schools Entered in Special Training Camp (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, July 26. Three hundred and seventen schools and universities have responded to the offer of the war department to give special military training in the officers' training camps at Plattsburgh, Ft. Sheridan and the presidio at San Francisco to a selected group of Instructors and students. Though no commissions will be given, the members of the groups will assist officers assigned by the war department, to the colleges in the training of student's army corps, which will be recruited among registered college students between the ages of 18 and 21 yars.

GAAR FARM HAS BIG WHEAT YIELD

Among the biggest wheat yields reported in the county is that from the Gaar farm east of Richmond on the New Paris pike. The wheat grade is especially fine, and the yield is heavy in spite of the fact that 30 acres planted in wheat is corn ground. The yield from the 30 acres was 1,055 bushels, or 34.58 bushels an acre. Another field of 24 acre3 yielded 615 bushels. The total average yield was 30.5 bushels an acre.

Port Angeles, Washington, has one of the largest saw and shingle mills in the world and also boasts a commercial devil fish industry, said to be the only one of its kind in existence.

P. 0. INSPECTION OF COUNTY MADE

Postmaster Charles B. Beck completed the inspection of the rural mail routes out of Richmond Thursday, the Inspection having been made at the request of the government. It has taken several days. Attention

has been given to all the routes leading out of Richmond. The post office department at Washington has decided that the mail boxes on rural routes must be of standard make and must be placed so that the doors can be opened without any great effort on the part of the carriers, who must be able to do their work as quickly and efficiently as possible. Government orders state that no mail is to be put in Poxes having neither names nor numbers on them. Patrons owning boxes which are not properly equipped will not have their mail distributed, especially at times when substitute carriers are on the routes. But the post office is aiming at establishing a service so efficient that any postman will be able to deliver mail to any box. In connection with the boxes the postmaster will also insist on people buying stamps instead of leaving pennies in their boxes, as this custom causes postmen a great deal of trouble In the winter months especially. Often the carrier will have to remove his gloves and waste several minutes in removing small change. Bad roads and dangerous approaches to mail boxes were also under consideration of the postmaster while on his inspection. He states, however, that he found the roads are in very good condition on almost all the routes. The old National road between the state lin? and the Eaton pike on route B, north of the city, is in bad condition over the stretch of a mile. Unless something is done to put these roads in better repair, a discontinuing of deliveries will have to be recommended. In all cases of this kind the mail will be returned to the post office where patrons will

Follow the advice of a Richmond citizen. Mrs. J. R. Brown, 440 Randolph St., says: "I have used other kidney remedies, but Doan's Kidney Pills have always given the best results. My kidneys were weak and I had dull, nagging backaches. I felt languid, my work tired me easily and I often had dizzy headaches. My kidneys didn't act regularly, either. Doan's Kidney Pills soon restored my kidneys to a good, healthy condition and the aches and pains left my back." Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Brown had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo. N. Y.
