BERLIN Dec. S.-(BV wireless -
More than one hundred thousand Rus
slams were taken prisoners when LodZ
was captured by the Germans, accord
ing to unofficial reports received here
today.
Warsaw is now the goal of the Ger
man armies in Poland following the
fall of Lodz. This is made clear in an
official review of the military situa-
tion issued here today. 1t says con-
cerning the Warsaw goal:
THE investment of Warsaw should
result from the present operations it
would rob the Russians of their most
important railway communications
and put them in serious position.'
The operations in Poland. which
have developed into the bloOdiest bat
ties in the history Of the world, are
declared to be approaching a decisive
| climax
"That news of decisive actions in
the east may be expected any day,
says the official review, lis shown by
the latest reports from headquarters
| that everything is proceeding accord
ing to program. This can mean only
that the operations thus far have
| been successful"
/ Reports sent from Russia that the
! Cars troops defeated the Germans in
an attack at Czestochowa with heavy
| losses on November 20, are denied
with the following statement:
"The contrary is true: an attack by
| the Seventeenth Russian army corps
which advanced until only sixty me-
! ters from the German frontier was de
feated on that day. The Russians left
a very great number of killed and
wounded on the battle field and were
obliged to transfer their positions

Our Standards For Mexico

OF the 1929 foreign students in the
United States more come from Latin
America than from either Europe or
Asia. And of all the countries south of
us, Mexico sends us the greatest number
-223, more than represent Great Britain
and Ireland in this country or Germany,
France and Italy together. These men
are not confihed to a few of the larger
and better known institutions but are
scattered throughout the country in
universities, colleges and schools of
technology. The younger Maderos were
all educated at Harvard and at the Insti-
tute of Technology.
The young men who are with us today
will be among the leaders of the Mexico
of the future. Nor is the obligation en-
tirely on their side. In many ways it is
fortunate for us that they are here. For
they will carry back true friendliness
to our country. They will have learned
that such feeling for Mexico exists
among us, and that the shrieking yellow
journals and the jingoes. though noisy,
are few in number and almost universally
discredited. Our conquest of Mexico
may well be accomplished by bringing
these students over the Rio Grande in
ever increasing numbers. Swapping
culture is more effective than swapping
bullets. BosroN HERALD.

Bedouin Thief Trackers.

A curious profession among the Bed
ouins is that of the thief crackers"
Being without paddocks or stables and
their animals always more or less at
liberty, theft of stock would appear to
be an easy and frequent matter Each
tribe, however, has its little company
of ''trackers," and it would be either a
bold or an ignorant man indeed who
ventured to interfere with an Arabs
live stock. There was one instance in
which a camel stolen from a camp
near Ismailia was, after weeks of la
Dor, successfully tracked to the Sudan,
where the beast was recaptured and
summary vengeance wreaked upon the
robbers. Selected for natural ability
and trained from boyhood to discrim-
mate between each animals footprint,
this faculty becomes so nightly devel-
oped that a particular horses or cam
els trail is unerringly picked up from

TWO KINDS OF men
BY FRANK FlLSON.

We'll, I'll have to be going home,
said John Wells to Marcia Tanning
his sweetheart, as the clock struck
eleven.
They stood still, neither speaking for
while. Each knew what was in the
others thoughts.
John was rising young lawyer in
the town, and he had loved Marcia for
nearly three years. After a courtship
which had seemed destined to be fruit
less John had at length gained Mar
cia's consent. They were to be mar
ried in months time. A good, SEN
sible match, people called it, Tor
neither was young. John was thirty
Eve and Marcia thirty.

the door, there's something / want to

me enough to marry me?"

II admit that, Marcia" said John.
"But / am not jealous of him. / am
sure can win all your love, if not be-
fore marriage, at any rate afterward.
Only, dear, unless you are sure that
you love me"
Listen, john said Marcia, placing
her hands on his shoulders. Il loved
Charles for Ave years and all my love
was bound up in him. Then l discov-
cred that he-he wasn't straight,
John. He wasn't man of high ideals.
ceased to love him. But he was my
first love and I can never give quite
the same love to anyone again. You
have all the love that l am capable OF
feeling, dear. Isn't that enough?"
Eyes, my DEAR" answered John. and
kissed her and went.
First love runs strong and deep.
Marcia knew that though she no longer
cared for Charles, If ever he should
come back he would possess the same
power over her, the same strength
which had swayed her. For that rea-
son she meant to induce John to sell
his practice and go to another city
after they were married. She felt that
she could never see Hambley again
And she feared always that some day
he would return to Waynesville.
The bell rang. Marcia started to
her feet. John must have forgotten
something. He was so absorbed in his
