BOYS REMOVED BY THE ENEMY
(REijTER's TELEGRAM.) ' LONDON, 14th September. '" Reuters correspondent at American Headquarters, writing on the evening of _ 13th September, says: "General Pershing and General Petain entered St. Mihiel this afternoon. The Germans had not time to evacuate the inhabitants, but had previously deported all boys of from 10 to 16 years. They forced the old people to work. As for the reft, the least said the better. What a relief it was from' all those years of oppression could be judged by the transports of joy with which the Americans were greeted. It was the same in all the other towns and villages."
