D|xMuDE RETAkEN
Germans Are Driven Out by the
French Marines.
Forced to Retire From Range
of Naval Guns.

London, Nov. 26.-The town of Dix
nude has been recaptured by the al
lies, according to a dispatch to the
Daily Mail from Dunkirk.
To the French marines goes the honor
of driving the Germans from a posi-
ton which has been the center of vlO-
lent attacks for weeks, it is stated.
Three times the Germans were driven
from the trenches before the marines
were finally able to hold them. Desper-
ate fighting marked the encounter as
the Germans returned twice and re-
took the trenches. The assault of the
marines was made Tuesday night. On
Wednesday morning they occupied the
town and set up machine guns to hold
their position. The losses of the ma
rines are placed at 300 dead and
wounded
A majority of reports from Flanders
agree that the bOmbardment of Zee
brugge and other coast towns by the
allied fleet has forced the Germans to
take shelter in their trenches out OF
range of the guns of the warships. The
entire coast has been raked by the fire
of the British monitors and destroyers.
This has resulted in stopping the work
Of the Germans who were placing heavy
guns and fitting out Zeebrugge as
naval base.
Great damage was done there both
by the allied fire and the Germans
themselves in burning away a portion
of the town that their guns might not
be interfered with. A large portion of
the town was last reported in flames.
but naval authorities are skeptical as
reports that six German submarines at
thee docks there were destroyed, and,
against one report of their destruction
another declares the submarines left
the port when the bombardment be-
came too hot. There is no confirmation
Of a German retirement from the coast
and reports of the destruction of the
submarines are believed to be exag-
gerated.

KANSAS REJOICETH..

If any other commonwealth
the world over has more for
which to be thankful in this
year of the Lord, 1914, than
has Kansas, it is favored be-
yond what a community of
mortals deserves.
But surely there can be no
such place on earth.
Nature was more than kind
and generous with Kansas
this year.
She touched the fertile and
well-tilled fields of Kansas
with magic fingers; and there
came forth a wheat crop the
like of. which, for both bulk
and value, the world has never
seen before.
Other crops, with the pos
sible exception of corn, flour
ished almost as well, and even
the corn crop was far from
having been a failure. It will
add millions in money to the
wealth of the state.
Because of these tremen-
dous and most profitable
crops, Kansas is possessed on
this Thanksgiving Day of a
larger measure of prosperity
than has ever before been her
portion.
Kansas has cause for sin
cere rejoicing because of the
few poor within her confines.
She is free from the snob-
berry of individual riches.
There is a share for all that
Kansas has for almost every
Kansan.
Kansas approaches, there
fore, the state that is ideal.
Kansas is also thankful that
she is a part of the one great
nation that is at peace with
all the world.
And Kansas is more than
thankful that she is in a posi-
ton to give something sub
stantial toward the succor of
the sorest sufferers of that
war.
Peace, happiness and pros
perity for all abound in Kan
SaS.
Are these not three suffi-
cient reasons why Kansas
should be thankful?
Are they not three suffi-
cient reasons why Kansas
should bend her knee before
Him, the giver of all good
gifts, and humbly thank Him
for such of His largess that is
hers.
