GERMAN LOSS OF MEN.
BOYS BEING DRAWN UPON". Received May 2, 11.15 p.m. Reuter Service. London, Ma" J. A British headquarters correspondent states that the German field recruit depots are being heavily drawn upon to replace the recent casualties. The thirteenth reserve division has just received a company of 250 boys of tlie 1920 class, who have only had eight weeks' training. They were not to be engaged in the fighting unless absolutely necessary, but the fact that they are now with the divisions in the battle line suggests the anticipation that they may have to be used.
