TUESDAY

On the battle front, via Paris,
Oct. 5.-The Allied armies, after
having permitted their adver.
saries, as they thought to exhaust
themselves by continued attacks,
today took most vigorous Of
fenSive. The British and French
encountered such a strong resis-
tance, however, that their most
advanced detachments on the
Western wing were compelled
to fall back.
Only at this part of the long
battle line did the opposing
troops actually come into close
contact.
Many picturesque villages,
around rs ..aadredsof thoun-
ands of men occupy positions,
have suffered severely in the re-
cent fighting and probably will
suffer more before the struggle
is over.
The country where the chief
fighting is going on is flat and
Under cultivation. In many
places it is boggy and there are
scattered coal mines. The Allied
armies are extending continually
toward the north and bending
eastward towards the Belgian
frontier, thus compelling the
Germans, in order to prevent the
crumbllng up of their main
army, to move large forces from
the center and SO keep pace with
the Allies, whose position men,
aces the invaders along the
whole line.

SUNDAY

London, Oct. 3. 9p. m.-Roye,
the little town ON the main road
from Chamiens to Noyon, the
heights around which have been
alternately occupied by the
French and the Germans during
the past week, is still the center
of battle of great violence.
The Germans, who are fight
ing stubbornly to protect their
flank at this point, have brought
up reinforCements, but accord
ing to the French official COM
munication today, all their at
tackS have been repulsed.
Of other operations on this
front, which extends as far north
as Arras, nothing has been dis
closed since the French them
selves announced that their force
debouChing from Arras had fal
len back slightly on the east and
north of that town.

day the Vice Chancellor declares

MONDAY

London, Oct. 4.-Having re-
pulsed the German attacks, pre-.
sumably in the vicinity of Roye,
the French, according to an Off
clal communication issued late
today at Paris, have resumed the
offensive at several points, while
other positions on their left have
been maintained.
The great effort of the allies to
envelcp the German right NAV
be said to be in operation again,
and it is believed the whole
French column from Rove
northward to Arras is moving
eastward against the German
positions.
1t is the same operation that
has been tried repeatedly for the
last three weeks in an attempt TO
reach the German lines of com
munication and either encircle
the German army forming the
right wing or force it to fall back
to Belgium and Luxembourg.
The Germans have had a long
time in which to make their
position secure, so there is a lot
of hard fighting ahead for both
the attacking forces and the
defenSes. The defensive role is
apparently being assumed by the
invaders.

And there were some that
had indignation within them
selves and said, why was this
waste of the ointment made?
For it might have be.n sold for
more than three hundred pence,
($5O.OO and have been given to
the poor. And they murmured
against her." Mark 14:4.5.
1t is so easy to join in with the
fellow who whines. Judas with
his covetous spirit started the
talk waste" and see even the
good of their number who fall
in line with him in finding fault.
See what Jesus said about the
waste" of the precious oint.
ment. In verse 6 "And Jesus
said, let her alone; why trouble
ye her? She hath wrought good
work on me-" Verse s "She hath
done what she could"
Let the critic criticise. But being
conscious of the fact we have
done what the Lord would have
us do, is best of all. Mary in
her loyalty and undying devo-
ton knew she had pleased her
dear Saviour.

Has He Found the Cause?
Lumberton Robesonian

Lumberton Robesonian
DR.. w. B. Page, whole-time
health officer of Robson county
is satisfied that he has discover
ed the cause of pellagra. BY ex-
perinents with a number of
patients extending over a con-
siderable length of time he has
demonstrated TO his own satisfac-
ton that this dread disease is
caused by an intestinal parasite
and that the disease is transmit
ed in much the same way as
typhoid fever is transmitted.
Doctor Page has sent an article
explaining his theory to a medi-
cal journal for publication in its
next issue.
If Doctor Page has really dis
covered the cause of this disease
ii will be a boon of incalculable
benefit to humanity, for discov-
cry of the remedy will speedily
follow.
Doctor Page says this disease
is very prevalent in Robson
county and that he believes it is
doing as much damage in the
county as tuberculosis. Hither-
to the disease has baffled the
medical profession and it is de-
voutly to be hoped that Doctor
Page is correct in his theory.

gives a series of sentence suggestions,
for the conduct of the public schools,
which for biting sarcasm and thorough
appreciation of popular foibles is worth
reproducing. A few of the sentences
read:

about things that you don't know
Forget that teachers are trained ex

Carve the teachers upon the table of

Condemn them upon hearsay evidence.
Assume that they naturally know but
little.
Tell the teachers how you used to
do 40 years ago.
If your child was kept in, insist that
you prefer whipping. If the child was
whipped, say that you prefer keeping
in. If the child has suffered both these
inconveniences, urge that you believe

AUGUST A DRY MONTH.

Without any allusion whatever to the
question of iutoXicants ii may he stat
ed with emphasis that the month of
August in this section was decidedly
dry, there being a total of only 02 of
an inch of precipitation during the 81
days. On the goth of the month this
transform CAME and that day was
the only cloudy day of the entire month
though there were 20 partly cloudy days.
The remainder of the 81 DAYS were
clear. The maximum temperature was
~ degrees on the 14th and the mini
mum IS on the 3lst. John Norwood,
voluntary observer from whose report
the above figures are taken makes the
following terse comment about August
weather: "A very dusty. dry, hot
month threshing mostly finished no
interruption to harvest"
The comparative statement for Au-
gust in the past four years shows that
the month just past was the banner
month for dry weather in all that pc
riod. In August 1911 the total precip-
itation was 1.22 inches; in August 1912.
l.SS inches in August 1913 1.40 inches.
