With the French Armies Afield.
May 2.—France is waging her great
est artillery battk: of tho wur to
blast loose the German hold on the
crest of Moronvillcrs—Gibraltar of
the Champagne plains. And within
hearing of the continuous thunder of
her cannon—almost in sight of them
—French soldiers arc working along
side peasant women, girls and little
children in plowing, sowing and har-
economic battle as their brothers in
the trenches just ahead fight the mil
itary combat Tips greatest battle
of the guns began Saturday, it ex
tended over more than eight miles.
No Sabbath calm reigned here, it
was an inferno of noise and smoke
and flame. For twenty-four hours I
watched, its progress, standing on a
height north of the Vesle valley.
When daylight failed and the
French observers could no longer
make minute observations of the
enemy positions directing the fury of
their artillery fire, the French offset
lack of eyes by increasing the In
tensity of the bombardment. They
started two barrages of fire. One
was n wall of projectiles dropped in
front of the German front line
trenches. It was to stop nil possi-
bflty of enemy attacks aa to tear
away the German hurbed wire de
fenses and clear tanglements away
prenaratory to a French advance.
The second barrage was at the
rear of the German lines. Its pur
pose was to cut German communica
tion. - ■ e
TRENCH DEFENDERS ISOLATED.
These barrages served to isolate
the German trench defenders from
all human aid.
The French carried out this plan
over'more than, eight miles from a
spot long ago chosen for this pur
pose. All along the front the Ger
man trenches rjmfaced, with shall
marks. As night wore on it was then
that a maximum of firing was at
tained.
All through the night of steel hail
the isolated Germans sent up multi
colored distress signals see
sistance from the rear, while in front
of their trenches, over No Mania
Land, their illuminating sheila mo
mentarily turned night into day.
They were evidently expecting a
French infantry attack at any mo
ment. As tho night advanced the
bombardment increased in fury.
Smoke and dus^ turned the dear
moonlight air into an impenetrable
mist, through which giant gun flashes
appeared as mere sparks. Yet the
French artillery observer*, with the
rowing the ground, fighting France's delicately perfect range instrument!
battle as their brothers in and glasses continued . the night's
vigil, observing details inviaihljj to
the naked eye, even including
erplosions ten—fifteen—miles behind
the enemy's lines, where well placed
Bhots froqi great range cannon ex
ploded German munitions depots.
BATTLE RAGES IN AIR.
Simultaneously with this all-night
earth fighting, an aerial battle
ranged above the smoke and dust of
the earth conflict. Both French and
German army commanders sent be
hind, the other’s lines big bombard
ing squadrons of aeroplanes. From
where I stood these aerial craft were
invisible, hut the rumbling of_their
motors and the sharp crash of their
bombs were audible above the artil
lery’s steady roar.
Back to the great searchlights
which fingered the skv searching out
the enemy raiders while the aircraft
Meantime other. French planes
circled above the artillery fire fight
ing back the great German machines
dropping bombs or occasionally
swooping down and flooding the
trenches below with machine gun
fire. But for the most part theta
fighting planes flew far aloft, out of
range of projectiles. The Germans
sent slowly mounting illuminating
balls of fire from their trenches to
light the skies and give their anti
aircraft guns a sight of the planes.
All night long these serial battles
were fought, repeated and, nfopght
Then at daybreak these nigl
hawks left the air. They were re
placed by French observation pianos
soaring over that . part of the
front where the attack was impend
ing, seeking out tho places where the
night’s bombardment has not yet
completed its destruction. Following
their report snd the fixing of new
fs, the French artillery went
lieally to work repairing its
omissions.
FIGHTING DESPERATE.
At 12:40 in the afternoon, tho
French infantry leaped from their
trenehes and wept loping np the
slopee of Mounts Haiit and Cornillot.
Although in the first-onward rush
the French were victorious every
where the Germans gradually put u 1

struggle another of Ms M strate;

(NOTE: The German division for
merly contained 20,000 men, but re
cent advices have detailed a new or
ganixation plan, whereby such units
now only include from 10,000 to
12,000).
With the advent of this fresh div-
iijpn great bayonet and hand gre
nade flghtinfi ensued. The French
were occisionally driven back. But
every time they doggedly reattached.

Concerning Baby "Week
jwwwanwi
SHA^ s pUUE-YS M 4NGE rS
Old Timothy Satterthwaithe was a
notorious character in our part of the
country. He was an eccentric, violent-
tempered, stingy, brutal old codger
who literally hounded hi* wife to
death and drove his children out of
house and home. His wife's family
took tho children, and one of them .was
brought up in Italy by an aunt who
was an artist living over there. Old
Timothy spent his declining years
alone. He had not even a notion
whore tho scattered members of his
family iyart, but when ha died it de
veloped that be had left a rosily con
siderable fortune to these children, no
doubt as a sort of conscience debt
to the memory of hie long-dead wife.
His lawyers had considerable diffi
culty locating the heirs. The dsuflh-
cuity locating the heirs, 'rue daugh
ter in Italy had married an Italian,
and tho aunt who had raised her was
dead. It was nscenery for her to
prove that she was the daughter of
Timothy Sattarthwpitr and a native
of America aa «!>* claimed before aha
could receive her legacy. A birth cer
tificate from her native stau could
have proved it so easily—hut the
state in which she was born had no
law requiring the registration of
births. She gat her money all right,
but that is another story. The point
if this: Did you know that Georgia
as no birth registration law, and
that if you had such a legacy you
might be unable to prove your right
to it? Did you know that if you had
a son or a brother living abroad be
might he forced by military laws to go
into the trenches against his will be
cause he could not prove his Ameri
can citizenship?
One of the aims of the Baby Week
to be held in Athens during the week
beginning May 6th is to get before
the pidiiic the need of such laws in
our own state. Without them it is
impossible to compile accurate sta
tistics upon which to base any efforts
to improve conditions affecting in
fant mortality. We owe if to our
babies here at home, as well as to
our absent citizens of mature age,
to protect them with adequate ma
chinery for the registration of births.
