The experience of other cities as well
as our own proves that a building
must be built much larger than the

should accommodate the 7th and 8th
grades and the central kindergarten.
The pupils then will be largely
from the thickly populated wards of
the city and from the country west
and north The teachers live in the
district, likewise the parents. The
distance is too great for the midday
hour and knowing as we do what is
now required of teachers and pupils,
we feel it is entirely too much to
ask them to carry q cold lunch or
prepare their own in the Domestic
Science kitchen. Mothers in large
numbers visit the grades on special
days and this is most helpful to the
school Few of them could tramp 50

1t is also desirable to use this new
building as civic CT s)cill center.
A building so remote would be de-
cidedly undesirable especially on q
cold winter night The location is
not easily accessible. All must ap-
proach it via the bridge except pos

FRANCES HAODEN FIRST WINNER
First Correct Solution in Missing
Word Contest Received Tues
day.-Many Replies Received

Judging from the large number OF
replies received, great deal OF in
terest is being taken by News-Bud-
Get readers in the Missing Word
Contest now being conducted by this
paper
Replies commenced coming in rap
idly soon after the paper was out,
but it was not until Tuesday after
noon that correct solution was re-
ceived, Miss Frances Hadden being
the winner Most answers contained
some of the missing words, but the
word missing from r. j. Sands ad-
vertisement, while an easy one and
in large type, seemed to be the
"sticker" No doubt many of our
readers found all of the missing
words in plenty OF time to have won,
but thought they would be too late
and did not send in the solution
Miss Haddens letter containing
the correct solution is as follows:
Editor News-Budget,
Dear Sir: In your missing word
contest, issue of March 13:
In Nate Hands adv, in last line,
the word of is omitted-'Full Line
(of) Farm Machinery
In Calkins & Sons adv, the word
better is omitted-'But it could not
keep any (better) time than the
brand of watches we sell, etc.
In r. j. Sands adv, in the SEN
Keen } and Hick-
ory Brands -'Kutter is omitted.
FRANCES HADDEN."
The first solution to reach this of
flee was submitted by Gerald Ma
loney. He found the missing word
in Calkins & Sons advertisement,
but neither of the others, although
he thought the word ''but" was omit
ted from l.. H. Spencer's advertise
don't buy sewing ma
chine often, (but) when you do" etc.
Harry Munroe brought in the next
solution, getting the missing words
in both Nate Hands and Calkins &
Sons advertisements.
Quite a number got two of the
words correct, but failed to find the
third, although there were several
who found what they thought were
other missing words. We will say
here that words omitted will usually
be important words, the omission of
which spoil the sense Or leave the
incomplete in some
way or other.
Lainys Simon submitted a solu-
ton containing five words, two of
which were correct. Quite number
submitted only the two words in Cal
kins and Hands advertisements,
thinking perhaps that only two words
were to be omitted The rules pro-
vide that two or more words will be
omitted each week
Some answers contained none of
the missing words. Numerous an
swers were received from out of the
city, in fact, the winner lives out
side the city. Some replies were re-
ceived from outside of the county.
The quest for the missing words
will be somewhat easier this week,
and more important will it be to
get your solution to the News-Bud
get office at the earliest possible mo-
ment All solutions must be in writ
ing, whether mailed Or brought in
No one will be told whether they are
the winner or not until it is an
nounced in the paper the following
week 1t will cost you nothing if
you lose. If you have keen eye, you
cannot earn a dollar any easier.

Germans Driven Back.

Paris, Nov. 16.-The left bank O:
the User has been cleared entirely ol
the Germans and telling defeat was
administered by the allies in contact
with the invaders on the right bank
during the fighting Sunday.
Complete evacuation of the western
bank of the canal, which the Ger
mans have held for so long, was an
nounced in the official communioue
from Bordeaux.
the official statement lays the
greatest stress, however, on the fight
ing on the right bank. Here the Ger
mans held strongly advantageous po-
sitions at Nieuport and at Dixmude.
The fury of the allies offensive wa
directed against the latter position,
which the communique admits is still
held by the Germans.
Unofficial accounts of the fighting
described terrific battle for this po
sition. The Germans had mounted
machine guns in the few remaining
towers left in the ruined village and
cannon had been trained on the thor
oughfares leading to the westward
and commanding the trenches of the
heavily reinforced allies. From the
western edge of the town new and
heavily protected trenches had been
dug by the Germans.
The allies bombarded the Germans
in the town on the western bank and
under the cover of heavy cannonad-
ing made repeated attempts to cross
and take the town on the other side
OF the canal by storm. The vigor of
