‘BERMAN MAN POWER BEING
SAPPED, BAKER DECLARES
(By International News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—Declar
ing that “the week Jjust closed has
“been one very favorable to the Alljed
_arms,” Secretary of War Newton D.
» Baker, in his weekly review on war
. conditions, today paid high iribute to
. both the British and Italian arms.
.. Germany, he declares, took the of 4
“fensive in Italy to extricate herself
‘from the increasingly difficult position
_in which the German arms find them
. selves on the west front. This has
“failed, the Secretary says. Summing
“fip the result and the outlook, Mr. Ba
- ker says:
elt is the wastage of the enemy
_ forces—-the slow, yet relentless sap
ping of the man power by continued
and sudden offensive thrusts—which
wanust eventually result in the soften
. ing of his line in the west. This is
*‘the ultimate objective of the geries of
.‘.flmensive{ofr»nsivvs so successfully
Fipursued by the Allies in the past six
'i';momhs. and ig even more important
“than the gain in territory.”
" The complete review as made pub«
i lic by the Secretary is as follows:
¢ “The week just closed has been ohe
. very favorable to the Allied armies,
b’;‘"The success of the British offen
“give in the region of Cambral and
e steady resistance of the Italians
. the face of repeated attacks of the
‘Austro-German forces are two factors
“which may be considered as corela
@vo elements of one and the same
#novement. ‘
Reason -for Offensive.
® 1t is evident the enemy took the
“offensive in Italy hoping thereby to
~extricate himself from the increasing
wly diffieult position in which his forces
sfound themselves in the west. |
&' “The German higher command was
Sapparently confident that, in erder to
émave Italy from invasion, such im-
Uportant contingents of French and
“British troops would he detached from
“the western front as to render any
“further Allied offensives in this the
~ater impossible. |
% "“Though the French and British
phave both dispatched large contin
¥gents to Ttaly, this has In no way
hampered the continuance of thelr of
“fensive operations. |
* olt is the wastage of the enemy
‘forces, the slow yet relentless, sapping
sos hig man power by continued and
pdden offensive thrusts, which must
Seventually result in the softening of
“his line in the west.
" “This is the ultimate objective o(}
"the series of intensive offensives s
successfully pursued by the Allies in
the past six months, and i 8 even more
mportant than the gain of terrain. |
| “The military situation is domtinated
by the spectacular success gained by
the British forces in thelr thrust to
ward Cambral.
. “By adopting new tactical methods,
¥ evolving a strategy daringly con
\ d and brilliantly executed, the
Rritish forces have been able to record
@ greater success, when measured by
icaptured terrain, than any hitherto
mchieved by either belligerent in the
fsame space of time along the westarn

. Haig's Success, i
# wwhile seemingly ‘continuing hia‘
ffensive engagements in Flanders by
tensive artillery bombardment in |
ithe sector stretching from Ypres to
he North Sea, Field Marshal Haig
#ma able to mask successfully his,
lans for an offensive thrust between |
pthe Scarpe River and Bt. Quentin, |
“The » usual preliminary artiliery
paration was dispensed with, 'l‘ho;
felements of surprise so essential to |
Wictory placed a large part in the|
uccesses gained. !
"‘ “The British, ‘by a preponderant |
_numerical superiority in ‘men and ma- |
terial; by improvising the- skillful
% cal maneuvering of an unusual |
umber of tanks, and by co-ordinat- |
with precision the deployment of
hpv‘lry, made use of these two arms!
. 0 bear the brunt of the encounter. |
Infantry then was called upon to hold!
d consolidate the terrain gained. |
“Thus the British were able to record
‘s decided success with very Teat |
' @conomy of ammunitions, and nfilxhtr
easualties. ‘
“Three successive lines of German§
defenses on a frontage of six miles |

which began at dawn November 20,

Ing forward, are® meeting with ""1

mAay expect desperate attempts on the
part of the enemy not merely to pre
vent any further British advance, but |

lost ground. ?

THANKSGIVING BULLETIN|
Many a home will serve 4 less pretentious repast this
vear than on any previous Thanksgiving-—certainly there
will be less extravagance and waste. But the lessons of
economy and common sense that are being learned every
day will prove of conntless value in the f:fiure.
And yet the Thanksgiving dinner need be no less
attractive than heretofore—and the sacred charm of the
occasion may still be preserved. In fact, there will be ad
dittonal reasons for thanks, in the knowledge we have
gained of how to substitute economy for extravagance—of
the value of many inexpensive articles of food that can be
used in place of the costly ones.
The Rogers Stores have felt it a part of their mission to
disseminate all obtainable information that would tend to
correct our pational fault of extravagance and wasteful
ness. All of which we have backad up by supplying our
patrons at the lowest possible prices.
All of our stores will remain closed all day Thanks.
giving. In order to be able to do this, they will be open
on Wednesday night until 9 o’clock, so that all of our
patrons may be served. ‘ :

a two-days’ supply on account of Thursday's closing. Our Quality
Loaf is thomué)hly wrapped and will retain its freshness. This
elegant milk bread is a full 20-ounce loaf and sells for the same
pricesas other 16-ounce loaves, 10c. Our Double Loaf contains 16

" 'ARE YOU A CRANK ABOUT FLOUR?—Many of the best
cooks are hard to please when it comeg to flour. We unhesitat
ingly state that no matter how much you pay, you simply can not

THE TRUTH ABOUT EGGS—Three-fourths of the eggs con
sumed at this season of the year are storage eggs. They have to
be. Supply and demand governs it. Yet because there is a
prejudice against storage eggs, some dealers are forced by their
patrons to call them fresh eggs. They are better than your
prejudice permits you te believe them. Our price on No. 1 storage
eggs, dozen, 39¢c.

day is Velvet, which is handled exclusively by us. Made in Sel
