THE GERMAN RETREAT
New York Tribune.

The German retreat east and northeast of Paris is being main tained at a pace about equal to that of the Seine Valley. It may be argued by those who still have faith in the German offen- sive that it will be a simple mat ter to start new rush, toward Paris after the German armies have been re-enforced and refitt- ed. The reverSes suffered by the Kaiser's forces may be held to be no more damaging than those suffered by the allies in the ear Her battles in Lorraine and on the retreat from Belgium. It may be that Germany will invade France again, since the only hope of German success in this war has lain and stil! lies in an early and decisive victory in the western theater of operations.

FILE LIQUOR PETITION
Argenta Saloonists Begin Legal
 Action to Reopen Saloons.

A petition containing 2,46O names was filed with the county clerk yesterday afternoon ask ing that liquor license be grant ed and that saloons be permitted to reopen in Argenta. This numbers given at the recent trial of the Argenta liquor peti- tlon case in the Third Division Circuit Court, is a majority of the adult white residents of the city by 552, the census being given as 4,368.
 A petition circulated before and during the early part of thlS year contained majority .ot the population of adult white residents as given above, but a sufficient number of these names were ruled off the list by Judge G. W. Hendricks to cause him to decide that the saloons must close. This trial ended on Sep tember 26 and since midnight or that date the Argenta sa- looms have been closed.
 The circulation of the new pe- tltlon began on October ?. To comply with the law, the names on the petition must be adver- used In a newspaper, published within the county, twice and 10 days before the matter can be taken before the county judge to decide whether or not the town can issue license. The second advertisement of the names appeared yesterday and It IS thought that the matter will come before County Judge Joe Asher in about eight days.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING

A delegation composed of DR..
Guy w. Latimer, Councilman
John C. Brooke, w. P. Magrud-
er, J. Frank Rushe and E. A.
Fuller, from Hyattsville, and
Geo. Held, Brice Bowie and J.
Burrows Waters, from Riverdale,
visited Annapolis last week and
conferred with the Prince Geo.
county delegation in the assem-.
bly, about the high school build
ing for the upper section of the
county. It was agreed that the
building should be erected in
Hyattsville, and that the amount
of the bonds should be S25, 900,
including cost of site, which
latter will be on the Washington
Baltimore boulevard.
A delegation from Capitol
Heights was assured that bonds
for SIS, 600 would be issued for a
ten-room school in Capitol
Heights.
Mayor w. H. Vanneman of Mt.
Rainier urged a bond issue OF
$4,000 for an addition to the
Brentwood school, but was in.
formed that the county com.
missioners would levy a tax suffi.
cient for this purpose in March.

A Referendum

A Bill has been submitted to our
County delegation at Annapolis, re-
curing that trap and pound nets be
taken out of the Patuxent River; re-
gulating the use of seins and glllnets,
and appointing an-inspector to see that
the regulations for the conservation or
fish are complied with. This Bill has
the support of the Rureau of Fisheries
of the Federal Government, it having
been found, after long investigation,
that pound and trap nets have practi-
calIy DESTROYED the fish industry IN
rivers of this size.
ANY of our old farmers can recall the
time when shad and herring could be
purchased In season at any river shore
in quantities sufficient to meet winter
needs, and at moderate prices.
The pound nets have practically
eliminated ali the fish in the upper
part of this splendid river, and yet
they are caught in such quantities at
its mouth as to justify their use for
fertilizer. Fish are intended for food,
and this use of them should bring down
condemnation from all persons having
the welfare of our County, through
which this splendid river flows, at heart.
When we realize that all fish have to
get to fresh water to spawn that pound
nets are staked across the mouth OF
this river during the season when fish
are trying to get to the head waters to
spawn in such a way as to allow only
| room for the steam boat to get through;
that the few that accidentally get by
the mouth are caught in pound nets
| stretched across every available place
up the river; that these nets work day
and night, week days aud Sundays,
killing the spawn of those they don't
catch, killing young perch and other
fish by the tn usands; that scarcely a
handful of fish get to fresh water
spawning grounds; that unless they get
to the fresh water there will be no
| fish spawned for the next season, we
| can then realize how it is that there
are no fish in our splendid river, and
no W important it is to protect and con-
serve this great natural industry.
By simply thinking this good law
will do no good; you must act if you
want your delegation to act; write them
your views and they will know how
their constituents feel about this con-
| structiye legislation.

The United States Civil Service Com
mission announces that while it has no
difficulty in securing sufficient female
stenographers and typewriters to meet
the needs of the departments at Wash
ington, the supply of male eligibles has
not been equal to the demand. Young
men who are at least Is years of age
and who are willing to accept the US
ual entrance salaries, which are $40
and 5000 year, have excellent oppor-
tunitief. While the entrance salaries
are low, advancement is reasonably
rapid to those meriting it. The exam
nations, which any competent steno-
grapher should be able to pass, are
held each month in the year, except
December, at the principal cities of the
United States.
