Everybody Cordially Invited
MUSIC BY PUTTSGUTH ORCHESTRA
Taris, July 12. The lull in the
fighting on the Somme front, report-
ed in today's official statement, was
marked down in advance. The Anglo-
iFrench steam roller is halting and
preparing for the next infantry rush.
French authorities declared todr
that the offensive is proceeding: with
all the mathematical exactness with
which it was planned.
Copied German Tactics
The allies copied from the German
attack at Verdun their present tactics
of smashing through German de
fenses with heavy artillery and
trench mortars. Heavy artillery has
pierced the German lines at several
points, rendering possible infantry
thrusts for as great a distance as
eight and one-half miles, had the
allies been willing to sacrifice the
men. However, they refused to ad
vance their men until they have
brought up heavy artillery and clear
ed a path.
Allies the county for about 40 years and thh-'
was the first time he ever rode on a
railroad train, is a very strange thing
Probably one reason Link never rodj
on a train before is the fact that he
is one of the best horsemen in the
county and always kept a driving
horse that was faster, in his opinion,
and more safe than a railroad train.

TWO OF KAISER'S GUNS
CAPTURED DATED 1874
London, July 12. The Reuter cor
respondent at the British front re
ports that two German field guns
bearing the date "1874" have been
captured by the British. The corres
pondent asks whether, without at
taching undue importance to the in
cident, these guns do not indicate the
straits to which the Germans are be
ginning to be reduced in order to find
sufficient armament.

Colonel Stephen C. Mills, in service in the
Philippines, tramped 18 miles in a new pair the
first day he ever wore Herman's U. S. Army
Shoes, 15 miles the second day and long distances
the next two days, through mud and water often
waist deep, and over slippery, rocky hills, and
, his feet were neither rubbed, bruised nor abrased.
That was because U. S. Army Surgeons -de

outsoles ot Texas unscourea oaK; insoies ot
superior quality leather, pliable, easy and durable ; lining is
specially tested drill ; heels are solid whole oak lifts with
hemlock top pieces ; workmanship is best in the world.
HERMAN'S U. S. ARMY SHOES are
built to keep the feet comfortable through the
hardest service in all climates and all weathers.
