Announcing the Fall Opening of

Charley Bacon, who was formerly
a brakeman out of this terminal nnd
went overseas avUIi an engineering
corps, In a letter to W. J. Landgraf,
says in part:
"Tills Is a great life if you don't
weaken; but if you weaken it Is h .
I am right at the front where all the
big excitement is going on and have a
lino job as an engineer ion a trench
railroad, and bcllovo me you see all
the big stuff pulled off. The engine
looks more llko an automobile than
a locomotive, but sho travels Just the
same.
On this Job they figure the length
of a man's life at forty-live minutes,
but already I have out lived that
period by several days, but of course
I don't know how soon I may get
mine. However, I am hoping that the
shollwhlch Is to got me, if I am to
bo gotten,, has not yet been made by
tho bodies .
Tho first few days I was on the job
I nearly shook my shoes off, and some
of tho boys said I had Joined the
suilcldo bunch, but I have become ac
customed to bursting shells nnd they
don't hnvo so much effect on me.
However, I have had a good many
nnrrow oscapes When bursting sheUs
tlew all around mo. Once I was with
in 300 yards of Bixty Japs who wore
killed by a bomb. '
I have also seen many exciting afr
plane fights.
This llfo is great If a man can get
safely by, and his experience will be
well worth recalling In future
years."

THE YAJKS STAItT OFFENSIVE Nnncnrtl. n-htnh mo nnnt.,rmt f
ON ItEGISTllATION DAY. ! Bols do Gargantua and north ' of
Tho long-heralded offensive in
France began yesterday. It was start
ed In the -lorning on the western
odgo of tho Woevro plain and was
evidently intended to break the grip
of the Germans on the Meuse river,
south of Verdun, and to open tho way
for attacks against the great German
fiortressos of Metz and Strasburg.
With the opening of the American
drive allied offensive operations now
extend over practically all the western
front from the North sea to the Swiss
frontier.
For some time the Americans have
been concentrating heavy forces on a
certain sector of the American front
and the developments Indicated
they were being massed on the
Woevre plain.
Two dominating facts stand out:
1. That tho American offensive was
launched on registration day in Am
erica. 2. That Secretary of War Baker
has just reached the fighting front.
Up to seven o'clock last evening
American troops on the Lorraine
front had captured the towns of
Thiaucourt, Pannes and Nousard.
North of St. Mlhlel, General Persh
ing's farces have captured Combres.
They are reported to have reached the
western outskirts of Donmartin ta
Montague.
French troops co-operating with
the Americans In their drlv on the
St. Mlhlel salient havo reached the
western outskirts of St. Mlhlel.
Thiaucourt was captured early In
tho drlvo. From that town tho battle
lino runs a little tp the south of
BolUonville, then to Pannes and
