On January 31, 1918, the front measured 754 kilometers. Then came the Hindenburg drive of March, which increased the length of the western front until July 20, 1918, when it measured 856 kilometers. This was the maximum length of the front, and it was just then that the effects of the great Allied joint drive began to show, By September the front had been shortened to 722 kilo- | meters, and by November 11 to 643 | kilometers, {* The British held 25 per cent. of | the front on January 1, or 187 kilo- | meters, and held this length of frent { until Mareh.21, when the Hinden- burg drive opened. The British front, Liverpool has been settled, and the | according to the figurés, was at ne | time more than 180 kilonieters aftep ! March 21. The French held 69 per band has been selected to accompany | Cnt. of the frent on January 1 and { only 55 per cent. on November 11. | The maximum per centage of the held by the French was on May 30, when they held 632.5 kilo- | meters, or 75 per cent. of the front. | ~The American army held 1 per { cent. on February 28, 4 per cent. on | March 21, 6 per cent. on May 20, { 12 per cent. on June 10, 14 per cent. jon July 30, 17 per cent, on August | 10, 20 per cent. on Aug\fBt 10, 20 per | cent. on August 30, 22 per cent. on September 10, 23 per cent. on Octo- | ber 10, and fell back to 21 per cent. | on November 11.

In: October and November, when it was evident to everybody that Ger. many was beaten, the Americans were holding a little over 20 per cent: of the lind and delivering kicks to the giant frame of the exhausted enemy. There is no wish in Canada to take away from the credit due to Americans for their generous support of the allied cause during the last two years of the struggle, but it is a good thing to keep facts and figures like the above in sight these days to answer a certain element in the United States that claims all the glory of winning the war, as though France and Great Britain did not figure in it. 3 Crab Changes Sheil. The crab's equivalent to the in- ternal bones of animals is its tough outer shell, which does not grow. The baby crab is forced to get rid of this tough confining prison. So It 'breaks itself loose internally and then splits its old protecting home across the extreme back ridge, creeping out in that way. It is, naturally, a very delicate operailon to withdraw the terrible Saws ahd thet limbs, or these are r at the extreme . Indeed, : first sight impossible, seems at but these curious ereatures have the Power of withdrawing the blood ine to the body, and this greatly reduces the. bulk 'of the i - 4 398, 354. in the | on ~ they 'give expréssion to their emo- | Uons and feelings. A famous authority, Dr. Framcis Ward, said this, and added that if one only knows how to observe fish one can tell what they are thinking about, what they intend to do, and what they are feeling! : It may seem highly ridiculous to talk about the emotions of fish, and of their intentions, but they have | these feelings, and they do express them. They love and fight as we do. That fish can actually reason, al- though very slowly, has been proved by M. Oxner, the French naturalist. He made a series of interesting ex- periments with captive fish. He baited a hook, and two inches above it fastened a tiny piece of white paper. With this bait he tempted a recently captured fish, But this fish was wily, and for seven days refused the bait. Then, the next day, when tho week-old memory of its capture had apparently vanished from fts mind, the fish bit and was i hooked. M. Oxner carefully unhooked the | catch and replaced it in the water, Three times more the fish bit, with a day's interval between each bite. But after that it-mo longer touched the bait, for the meaning of the paper sigual bad become known to On the twelfth day the plece of paper was removed from the hook, and the fish straightway bit the bait! The paper was thereupon re- placed, and for three days Mr. Fish F ank Keyes, scerciary of the local i barber's union, has notified the Mas- {ter Barbers' Assogmiion 'that _e {Journeyman have accepied the award {of the arbitreion board 'with the understand"ng that the union men receive aixly-five per cent. of the tak- lings of brokén week: with one or more days off and bat no journey- | with apprentices who reefused to go {out with the men on stifike.

On the other hand the jourmeymen state that the boys were warned that ey ware expediad to go out with "he barbers awd that they were al- {lowed two weeks to make prepara- jcms. They were also offered strike | | pay. The bosses cre holding a meeting "o-night 2nd the whole question will | {he thoroughly discussed.

On the fourth day however, the fish swam right up to the paper signal, sniffed it, and then descended and: very cautiously nib- bled 'the bait until it had succeeded' in eating it all off the hook without swallowing the latter. On the bait being replaced, 'the fish did exactly the same thing, avoided "eapture." Experinfents with other fish always had the same result, The following humetraus anecdote amply proves that fish---or, at any rate, trout----have memories: | An expert piscicultupist kept a large trout captive in a pool. When 'ever anyoné approached the hatch- ery this trout would show, itself, and appear to be examining its. visitors. «By 'way of 'experiment the expert would get a trout rod and hold it at the side of 'the pool, = Immediately the trout would swim swiftly into hiding, its fins bristling, its skin pale | with fear, and its eyes glaring. It { would remain hidden as long as the trout rod was in evidence. The explanation of this frout's fear of the rod is that early in its life the expert cast a new barbless hook into the pool with a trout rod in order to test it. The trout seized i the hook, which penetrated its upper { Jaw. By the time it had been re- leased, the fear and pain it had suf- HH | tered evidently had made a lasting impression upon its memory. An astonishing fact is that when the, owner of the trout brought an ordinary stick or cane into view the fish would take no notice whatever! Fish make 1ove to the partners of their choice practically In the same way that pigeons coo and bow to their mates. y If, however, his persuasive meth. of love-making are not favor- ably 'received, he gets annoyed and | attacks her mercilessly! | ~The bride is simply driven into | the nest and forced to "make ftself at home." It often happens that two or more fish claim the same mate, In that cafe a fierce fight ensues and the bravest gets the fairest, When a fish is enraged it be- comes brilliant in color, and all its fins bristle sharply. When frighten ed it literally goes pale with fear, Just as a human being does. This pallor is' due to the fact that alarm causes the pigment cells in the fish's gkin to contract and the white flesh to show through ----Tit-Bits, FOLLOWED THE STRING.
