SAMMIES THROW
FUSILLADE OF GAS
SHELLS ON ENEMY
Americans Forced to With
draw When Germans Repel ,
-Trench Raid by Attack
With Hand Grenades.
With the American army in France,
Tuesday, March 19. American artil
lery on the Toul front has heavily
.Hacked the Germans with gas shells
during the past day or 60, it is now
permitted to announce.
Four different attacks were
launched and from the manner in
which the enemy was silenced it is
evident they had the desired effect.
During one period when the gas
shells were flying over the enemy
lines last night, a German airplane
with a red tail light appeared over the
American lines and dropped a red
rocket, for what purpose it is not
known. However, shrapnel from
American anti-aircraft batteries burst
so near the German immediately aft
erward that he was forced to fly for
' his own lines in a hurry.
Americans Shell Montsec.
Last night the enejny observation
tower and positions on Montsec were
Shelled heavily and heavy fire was di
rected against the enemy lines this
morning. '
At noon today the enemy opened a
WvAv fir nn one of the American po-
sitions with .37-millimeter guns from'
the cemetery at Richecourt. The
American guns of the, same caliber
came into action and after they had
fired SO shells, the Germans ran from
the position and took their guns from
them. The American guns then shelled
the village of LaHayville, where two
heavy explosions, apparently of muni
tion stores, resulted. -
Germans Use Gas Shells.
The German artillery directed most
of its attentionto dropping a few gas
shells into one or two towns within
the American lines and shelling cross
roads, known as Death's corner dur
ing the day and night.
Last night . American patrols en
tered the German front lines at two
points, but did not see a single enemy
soldier, although they hunted some
time. , - .
Another patrol remained in the
enemy wire entanglements all night
hoping to ambush an expected enemy
party, but it did not appear.
A third patrol party was discov
ered by the Germans,, who hurled
hand grenades and forced the Amer
icans to withdraw. Still another es
tablished contact with n enemy pa
. i trol and a few shots were exchanged.
I The Americans came through un
scathed, but it is not known what
happened to the Germans.
Allied Plane Lost
Many airplanes were up until it
began to rain at noon. One airplane
from the rear of the Americain line
drove oS two boche machines after
a thrilling battle in and out of the
clouds. Another airplane was en
gaged against a German when aiec-
ona ucrnian jinncu in me uguu t
second friendly airman came tip to
assist but it was too late, for the
airplane the Americans hoped would
be victorious ten to tne grouna wun
in the cnenty lines. - x : .

A corn cannot be shipped east hereafter
except la equipment furnished by eastern
lines. It was apparent that the bull
side of the market bad been placed under
a aeoiaea nanaicap. ror there are no sur
plus csrs en eastern -line. To a consider
able extant the - embargo was treated of
late as a, dead letter In order to move
promptly the accumulations of corn ready
tor export to in entente allies. At present,
however, rural consignments are falling off.
Depressing effects of the reinstatement , of
tn embargo, were somewhat counterbal
anced late tn the day by an Improved de

Oats, like corn, were pulled down In
value by the eastern embargo. Besides, re

(Special Telegram.) Congress
man Sioan of Nebraska deliv
ered half-minute speech that
. brought forth rounds . of ap-
' plause. ."
The house in committee of the
whole was considering the war
corporation bill and Dr. Fess of
Ohio was talking, when 300 sol
diers in khaki entered the gal
lery wearing the insignia of the
23d regiment of engineers, now
- in camp in Laurel, Md.
There was an instant pause
' in the proceedings as the mem- A
bem on the floor gazed gallery
ward to the stwdy young
American boya soon to go
. "over there."
Congressman Sloan happily
gave the dramatic touch by in-
: terrupttng Dr. Fess long enough
to say;
"If the gentleman will yield,
" I have an important statement
to make., is trie gentleman
' aware that he has an audience
t'ie suuerior of which seldom ap
pears in an American auditor- J
mm? l reter to several nunarea
young American engineers who
have come from Laurel this
morning to visit the house of
representatives.
"It is specially fitting that the
gentleman from Ohio, Dr. Fess,
one of America's leading educa
tors and statesmen, should
speak in the hearing of these
young militant members, all of
whom are school men and 75 per
cent are college men.
'They are all clean, brave, es-
timable, gallant young Ameri
cans, who will prepare the way
i for the boys in multiplied thou
sands to go over the top in
France., where many of our
morning guests soon expect to
be.
"We wish them God speed.
""We bespeak their victory."
. The boys in the galleries ap
plauded with all their might,
seconded by the applause of the
members, ,
Among the hundreds from the
Laurel camp-who are members
of the 23d and who spent the day
in Washington were Privates
Richard W. Reynolds and Clyde
C. Rice of Omaha and H. Turkel
of Lincoln.
Amundsen Says Labor Must
Do More to Help Win War
Chicago, March 20. American labor
has become cock sure because of high
wages received and must come down
from its high jiorse ,and help win the
war, Captain Roald Amundsen, Nor
wegian explorer and discoverer of the
South Pole, declared tonight in an
address under the auspices of the .Chi
cago Swedish-American societies
Laborers can t be slackers in their
work and wave the flag of patrrtism
at the same time,' continued Cao'ain
Amundsen. "Labor must see that there
is no cessation of the work of building
shipjs and othef necessities. Every
idle Content on the part of, a laborer
means the war will last just that much
longer. When labor becomes imbued
with, the idea of work and nothing
else, then it will do its full share
toward winning the war."
Getting a Better Position
Means Selling Your Service
Tn, .
The Twentieth Century Method of sell
ing your services is to advertise thdm.
. You can do more with a little ad in
the "Situation Wanted" columns of -The
Bee than you could in days of
, weary walking.
And then employers haye learned to
look in the "Situation Wanted" col--r
umns when they need vto fill vacan
cies in their organizations, and you
get interviews with people you could
not reach in any other way.
If yc
u want
' able ad, call at The Bee office--there is
.'no charge for this extra service-otherwise

Censorship Permits Statement
That Many Trainloads 6T
Drafted Men Are Enroute
to France.
(rawed by' the Censor.) , I
Camp Funston, , Kan. March 20.
(Special Telegram.) Drafted men of
the middle west are in the war.
Many thousands of the middle west
democratic army, the drafted men
from Camp Funston, moved some time
since toward the ultimate goal the
trenches and dugouts of France., tn
their number are men from Nebraska,
Missouri, Kansas. Colorado, South
Dakota, Arizona and New Mexico.
NO DETAILS MAY BE GIVEN.
The exact number of Funston men
who entrained some days ago for the
trio overseas cannot be published, nor
their route to the pott of embarkation,
nor the name on the port, nor can it
be told whether they are yet within
the United States, on the ocean, or
landed in France. Censorship rules
forbid publication of such information.
JOIN OTHER DIVISIONS.
They have gone as a division. The
nucleus of the 89th division,' from
which they were taken, remains at
Camp Funston. They have been or
will be - joined to another division
more fully prepared, the number of
which is withheld for evident reasons,
filling it out to capacity.
In such a way will the 89th division
be filled when the opportunity for
oversea duty copies to the men left
behind.
NO TEARS SHED.
There was no suggestion of sad
ness when they prepared to leave.
Bands played, regiments paraded,
and farewell celebrations were held
nightly in every barrack.
Men who were to remain m camp
made the best of their fate, getting a
measure of enjoyment by feasting and
banqueting the departing bunkies.
Speeches by colonels and privates
pictured the spirit driving them on
and portrayed their hopes that they
might be worthy ,of the trust.
No one shed a tear. It was not a
time for tear shedding. It was time
for songs, and they sang; a time for
cheers, and they cheered.
ALL FULL OF PEP.
When train after train pulled away
from the depot at Camp Funston
loaded to capacity with consignments
of olive drab there was bedlam of
bands cheering and singing. Banners
were displayed everywhere lettered
with slogans of determination to
reach the stronghold of the arch
criminal; determination to make Ne
braska proud of its output. Cheers
for the other six home states, entries
for just one chance at the boches, and
farewell to the folks back home.
Cheers Still Ring.
They left, and going, left behind a
renewed split of determination un
conquerable in the remaining men.
How long ago they left cannot be
told, but the echoes ot tneir depart
ing cheers are still reverberating in
the hearts of the men in camp.
Their training period in France will
be short. They are the best of the ;
assistance in preparing a suit-.
middle west, for only the best could
gd, lacking only the polish of the
training fielcs of France to make
them the'equal of the most seasoned
soldiers of Britain or France. "

WAS SO WEAK SHE
COULDN'T LIFT HER
6 M ONI 11$ OLD BABY
Now Does Own Housework
and Weighs More Than
She Has in 18 Years.
"I wasdown in bed and couldn't
raise my head or move without help
and now I'm able to do all my housework-even
to my cooking and garden
work and I weigh more than I have in
eighteen years and have been takinpr
Tanlac only about four weeks," said
Mrs."Dollie Hawkins, 4906 Second
avenue, South Birmingham, Ala.
"For many years," continued Mrs.
Hawkins, "I suffered with rheuma
tism in my shoulders, arms and in my
sides and neck, and I had indigestioy,
too, in its acute form. The rheuma
tism got me down in bed and had me
bound so hard and fast somebody had
to move me about and the pain was
terrible. I couldn't so muh as lift my
little : six-months-old baby, and we
had to hire someone to wait on me
and do my work. I was so nervous
and full of pain the least little thing
dropping on the floor would startle
me and my heart would almost stop
beating and the only way I could got
any sleep and rest was from hypo
dermics. I had indigestion so bad I
couldn't eat any solid food at all, and
I was so thin and weak and in such a
run-down condition that my baby fell
off until it was just a little skeleton,
and fretted and cried all the time ex
cept when it was given something to
make it quiet. My condition was too
awful to try to describe it all. No
kind of treatment on medicine did me
any good and I was getting worse all
the time, and I dont know what I
would have done if it hadn't beea for
Tanlac.
"If ever a medicine did wonders
for anybody, Tanlac did it for me. I
felt better in just a few days after I
began taking it. I could eat something
and sleep better. I have taken three
bottles of Tanlac and I am not ner
vous An the least now and my sletf df
is fine and rests me. The awful rhevr
matic pains and misery is all gone and
1 don t need the servant any more. I
can eat anything I want and my food
gives me nourishment. It has been a
long time since I felt as well and
strong as I do now, and as I hava
already said, I "weigh more thanI
have before in eighteen years. Tan
lac has made a well woman of me
and I don't know any better way to
tell what a wonderful medicine it is
than that I'm just so' thankful for
what Tanlac has done for us I want
everybody to know about this great
medicine."

TRAIN YOUR HAIR AS AN
ACTRESS DqES
No class of people devotes as much
time to beauty as do actresses, and no
class nust be more careful to retain
and develop their charms. Inquiry
develops the information that in hair
care they find it dangerous to sham
poo with any makeshift hair cleanser
The majority say that to have the
best hair wash and scalp stimulator
at a cost of about three cents, ona
need only get a package of Canthrfcri
from your druggist; dissolve a tea
spoonful in a cup of hot water and
your shampoo is ready. This makes
enough shampoo liquid to apply it to
all the hair instead of just the top of
the head. After its use the hair dries
rapidly, with uniform color. . DarN
druff, excess oil and dirt are quickly
dissolved andt entirely disappear;
when you rinse, the hair. After this
your hair will be so fluffy it will look
much heavier than it is. Its lusternd
softness will delight you, whil the
stimulated scalp gains the health
which insures hair growth. Ad
