Although Infantry oiteratious hi thu

trig bfttttcv are in the prooeM of raak
- tag In Wanders, France and Italy. At
rarloua point* In theee three war nonjy*
: Intensive artillery duel* are going u?i
day and night. They are partlcuftkrfy
mm>r? in the region of Yprea and the
Oambrai wector, where the Uvitiah.are
facing th? Geruwus, along the Aisne,
on the Verdun sector and along thu
Noeelle river, where the forces at the
^German crown i^ince aud , Grand
i>uk?> Athrccht of Wurttemberg are
4>pp&ting the French, and In the ltui
tan highlands flrom ijhc region oir
f^ake/SG?rda eastward to the Plave
liver, Where the Austro-German troops
are aligned against the Italians, French
and British.
Southwewt of YpreK, in Flanders, the
, German* have ma^c an attempt to
enter British positions, but met with
repulse and heavy losses under the
?ftre of the British infantry and ma
chine guns. Likewise an attempted
raid against the French positions on
the historic IIlll 804 in the Verdun
nectar was stopped with sanguinary
losses to the Germans. These two
maneuvers constitute the only activ
ity by infantry force# at any point
?xcept that small British patrols at
several plaecs forced crossings of the
Pinvo river against the Teutonic
allies.
Tho situation arising in tho dis
agreement between the Teutonic ul*|
lies and the bolshevlki leaders in Rus
sia still remains clouded owing to lack
of definite information concerning the
trend the negotatlons are taking or
whether they have entirely ceased. An
official , dispatch from Petrogrfld
quotes fci. Radek, one of the bolRhe
vikl delegates who has been treating
with the Austrians and Germans In
Petrograd, as declaring that the bol
shevlki is definitely strengthening the
fighting front, but that the Russians
will acceptn o help from the entente
allies If they are forced to fight again,
a? the Russians are fighting for an
ideal and not for conquest Tho bol
shevlki, like the German ? working
elasscs, added M. Radek, stand for a
democratic peace and if the German
government attacks the Russians "'it
will display Itself to its own people In
Its true light." ? ry . '

GRAND LIFE OF THE NAVY
Ontoofcor Inspired by tight of ?!* Qrmy
W?r?hl|M and Lllwrty tho
Sailor* Injo).
II was Sunday morning In Now
York, and the drivo at the foot
of Seventy-ninth street waa alive
with people, The benches - woro
at a premium. An aged woman,
with her knitting, got up and a crosa
eyed man sat down so quickly that the
bench didn't have a chance to get cold.
The tide waa Just turning, and tho
gray warships tit anchor began to poke
tbelr noses seaward.
"Thorn ships look grand, huh?"
The sailor sitting next to tho man
turned and regarded his bench mate
curiously. He waited tho fraction of
a second before replying, and before
he could answer he was bombarded
with another questlou:
"They ain't got no names."
Still the sailor remained silent. "81*
lence is golden," and the sailor was
running true to form. If you were ob
servant you could hsvo caught him
napping before the advent of the cross
eyed man.
"Bellevo me, that's the life," ho
rambled on, waving a long arm Hi tho
direction of the pier, where a launch
from one of the vessels had drawn
alongside. "Them fellers have a pretty
soft time of it. See *em? Going to
have u good time up town. Believe me,
that's the life."
Suddenly he turned and looked over
hit* shoulder, as though Inspiration had
gripped lil in strongly.
"Thafs the life ? I'm going to enlist,
believe me."
The sailor said to himself: "They'd
like to get him, only he's as deaf ns a
luiddock, und If he ever shoots where
he's looking ? good night J" ? Exchange.
Introduce New Food Fish.
Tho tllellsh Is a new food fish which
Is being extensively introduced and
promises to become a utaple food. Tho
secretary of commerce, in hid annual
report, characterises Its history aa ro
mantic. Ho- says:
"Discovered In 1870, It seemed ex
terminated by nntnr^l causes within
three years thereafter. Gradually It
reappeared and ultimately became
abundant on our Atlantic coast near
the 100-fathom line. The bureau has
long known the fish to be available,
but previous efforts to establish a fish
ery for it failed. The task was to get
fishermen to catch the fish, to get deal
ers to sell it, and consumers to buy It,
and to do these threo things at the
same time. The methods used were so
effective that In one month the bureau
withdrew from the campaign with the
fishery established and the demand for
the new food created. The progress of
the fishery has been extraordinary. It
centers as an established industry in
New York, in which port as many as
13 different vessels have landed tlle
fish in one month. Tileflsh bears ship
ment well and Is sent all over the
Eastern hnlf of the country. Some
large lots have gone as far as Kansas
City."
Her Valid Defense.
One has heard a good deul about the
Russian woman warriors. Sensational
stories about them have appeared from
time to time In the European press. Al
together,, there Is a flavor of romance
about the Russian amazons which Is
lacking entirely In the totally unlooked
for defense recently put up by an Eng
lish working woman, remarks the
(jnristian bciehce Monitor, a. suit nad
been brought against her for having
failed to pay the money due for the
hire of her sewing machine. Asked
what she had got to say for hersolf,
she replied: ^Nothing; I am unable to
pay, as I was wounded a short time
ago, fighting against the Austrlaus."
It quite disconcerted the court I Her
papers were examined by the judge
and found to be In order. Needless
to say, the charge against her was
withdrawn. ?
Dried Potatoes In Bolivia.
Throughout the Andean plateau of
Bolivia potatoes are cultivated at al?
titudes where even the hardiest grains
and vegetables will not grow. The
natives have a method of preserving
potatoes, which consists of alternate
freeslng and thawing until all the
moisture Is removed. The resulting
product Is known as chunu, and it can'
be stored for months and even years
without fear of deterioration. Pressed
into little bhllet-shaped pieces, chunu
Is universally offered for sale la the
markets, and is one of The chief foods
of the native population. The same
report states that Prance and Sweden
have imported seed potatoes from Bo?
11 via.
HavfiH^Eyes, He Saw Net.
One day last summer a tourist drore
hurriedly up to the home of Bnos A.
Mills at the foot of Longs Peak, leaped
ont and approached the naturalist.
^Mr. Mills," he said brusquely, "I hare
been told that there Is fine scenery In
Betes park. I want to get you to show
'me some of 1L"
The naturalist's eyes turned toward
the 100-mlle sweep of snowy mountains
that cut the blue sky, then swept the
valley below and rested on noble crass
Stad streams that 'Wound among groves
of pfne and aspen. Slow)/ he shook
his head. C
"I guess you must have been mlsln

Henoittag* MtU News.
This* was a very happy Christinas
In the ITfcrmltago Mill village In spite
of tho wintry weather and the loas of
many of the young men, who are uow
In tho Army.
(>n the afternoon of the 21?t, the
kindergarten had Ita entertainment at
tho Community Cottage. After some
sougs, dramatization, etc., a door open
ing luto ninother room was opened
and children marched In. Tho night
that greeted their eyes was one of
the prettiest tiny Christmas trees, the
writer has ever ween. It contains gifts
for each child. The children gave evi
dence of much enjoyment.
A party wan glvou at tho Cottage
on tho night, of tho 22ud to all tho vil
lage. The Virginia Reel and the aqua re
dance wont much enjoyed hy all pres
ent. When tho party came to an end,
all voted It the very nicest one ever
had In the cottage.
There was a t>lg Christmas treo for
the whole village at the Methodist
Church Christinas eve night. It was
a beautiful tree. "America" followed
by "Keep the Home Vires Burning"
wore Nung by all the children of tho
village. After this a little Christ
inas play ' was given by the small
children.
Mrs. Margaret Mliter, president of
Uie Camden lied Cross, gave a short
'?ut effective talk urging our folks to
loin the Hod Cross, -rrits was much
mi joyed by all. Santa Clans now en
tered with the proverbial pack on his
Wick and was greeted by shouts. The
'heart of each child present was made
ilad with a bag of fruit and a toy. v
Tho village regrets very much In
lml the loss of its commriilty worker,
Miss Itlta Izard, wbo has gone to
Chicago to take, another course in her
line of work.
The mill surprised its overseers with
?i Christina* present of a dally raise
In their salary for tho following year-.
This was certainly very much appre
ciated. I
