Nation after nation, on the other hand, had severed relations or declared war on the Teutonic powers until a great part of the world had ranged itself on the side of the Allies. In March, 1918, the Germans precipitated a series of crises the final ones as it turned out. In that month they began a terrific drive on a fifty-mile front against their opponents in the western theatre of the war.

A few scalps would look well over the gate. It hasn't had a fresh ornament of that sort since we've been here! What say you? It's but a fifty-mile ride." "I have no objection to the thing it would look well; but I shall not go myself. I don't like being along with the fellow out there or anywhere else you can understand that feeling, I suppose?"

Carl, who had thought perhaps of a fifty-mile trip, looked amazed, but his delight was equal to his surprise. He had always wished to see the West, though Chicago can hardly be called a Western city now, since between it and the Pacific there is a broad belt of land two thousand miles in extent. "Do you think I am competent?" he asked, modestly.

My, yes, I bet you broke the record hitting that fifty-mile camp." Tisdale nodded, and for an instant the humor played lightly at the corners of his eyes. "It took me just seven hours with an up-grade the last twenty miles. You see, I had Weatherbee to break trail. He rested a night at the camp and lost about three hours more, while they hunted a missing husky to make up his team.

He was already beginning to regret the step he had taken, though Jack's fearlessness was not without its effect on him. A big crowd was at the station to see the train start, which made Fret feel the importance of his position. The train had a fifty-mile run and Jack found that he was expected to make it and return the same day.

I went personally to Okar and was told by Silverthorn that the railroad would accept no material consigned to the Double A ranch." "Pretty raw," was Sanderson's only comment. "Raw? It's rotten!" declared Williams. "There's plenty of the kind of material we want in Lazette. To get it here would mean a fifty-mile haul. I can get teams and wagons in Lazette," he added, an eager note in his voice.

The next moment the machine was reeling drunkenly around curves and a fifty-mile gale was roaring past. Senor Ramen Alfarez was considerably nonplussed when his two distinguished visitors made known the nature of their errand. Cortlandt did most of the talking, his cold hauteur serving a good purpose and contrasting strongly with the suppressed excitement of his wife.

Sometimes she goes for a ride then, if she feels like it. Or she walks about the grounds, or drives out in the dog-cart. She's very keen on horses. Then either she goes out to lunch or someone lunches with us. And after that she's off in the car for a fifty-mile run or a hundred if the mood takes her. She's never quiet except when she's in bed. That's what I want you for.

Great battles in the Champagne and along the Aisne were fought by the French, who in April had captured Auberive, and they advanced their forces from one to five miles along a fifty-mile front, inflicting great and continual losses on the enemy. At the end of the third year, the French line ran from northwest of Soissons, through Rheims, to Auberive.

By that I mean the submarines. They must steam on the surface. The first flotilla to be composed of twenty-seven vessels." "I understand," returned the German admiral. "Very well. My ships will be stretched out in a fifty-mile line on either side of your ships as they approach and will fire at the first sign of treachery." "There shall be no treachery, sir. You have the word of a German admiral."
