NARNARTH HAS BEGUN
FIGHT FOR co. SEAT

Marmarth, N. D., Nov. l6. -
Slope county, with Marmarth as the
county seat is finally assured. Two
years ago two proposals were made
one to establish Golden Valley coun-
ty, and one to cut off Slope county
from Billings county. Both lost, but
the former was carried to the supreme
court and won.
Slope county was segregated from
billings at the recent election by a
two to one majority. AS a result Mar
marth is making the strong bid for
the county seat and local men are now
exerting all their influence with Gov.
L. B. Hanna to secure the naming Of
the temporary county seat ana officers.

GERMANS WOULD SOAK ALLIED
ARMIES BY OPENING DlkES

I impeded that their effectiveness is
greatly diminished. Air scouts can be
of little use as they cannot ascend

are of little value. But this affects
both sides about equally.
The long nights at the front are a
severe strain on the nerves. No lights
whatever are permitted after p. m.
and unless there is fighting, the troops
in the trenches and the villages within
range of the German guns have to
spend twelve hours at a stretch endur-
ing anything but rest cure. CONVEX
sation is only permitted in whispers.
Cigaret smoking is, of course, forbid

But not every night is like this.
Sometimes there is work to be done of
the most serious kind and sudden
subdued call to arms means the In
slant departure in case OF the men
quartered in the village to fierce con-

that those long nights of sleepless ex-

Heroic efforts are being made to
cope with the multitude of wounded,

destroyed the Moerkekerke bridge.
From Lombartzyde allies patrols

the Germans have not yet succeeded
in crossing the User. Merzem and
Eason, near Dixmude, have been en-
turely destroyed. The Germans are

reinforced. Fresh troops, in fact, are
appearing all along the line from
Ypres to the sea, where the fierce Ger
man attack in an effort to open way
to Calais and Dunkirk continues after
three weeks of incessant fighting. Can
adian troops are having their baptism
of fire in this section.
Dixmude has been reoccupied by the
allies. The French are assuming
viborous counter offensive and have
driven the jaded troops of the kaiser
out of the town.
It was officially admitted today that
the Germans had resumed their effort
to dislodge the allies from Newport
on the coast. Fighting has been re.
sumed among the sand dunes and an
attack was directed yesterday against
the bridge at Newport.
A heavy gale is blowing from the
sea, and owing to the exceeding rough
weather. it is believed here that the
allied battleships lying off the Bel
gian coast have been unable to aid the
land forces.
The German attacks have been re.
pulsed, however, and the war Office de-
clared tonight that the positions all
along the line were practically un.
changed.
From Newport to Dixmude and on
to Ypras, German and allied shells con-
tinue to rake the trenches on either
side OF the User. Alternating gains
and losses continue within the line.
but no si.-55.o advantage is lasting.
The allies advance of less than a
mile east of Bixschoote was reported
officially today. A German attack was
repulsed at Nieuport and at other
points conditions remain practically
unchanged.
The weather conditions are terrible.
Rain, mist, or fog prevail almost con-
stantly. Operations are hampered be-
tween Newport and Dixmude because
of the inundation by the Belgians.
Guns have been captured which cannot
be hauled away because they are mir
ed down. The men are suffering from

THE WAGES WE EARN

Some of us are working to be well
spoken of, to have more influence, to
have better social position or only
to have better clothes.
Others ask for wages just to be
loved, to have the chance of serving
and making happier those they. love
themselves, and so unconsciously win
ming a rich and deep happiness for
themselves.
There are other things We work for,
too, wages" that bring with them
bitterness, anger, fear and recrimina-
ton, followed by remorse. We do
not realize when we set out to earn
these and our needless feet carry us
into regions we did not mean to
tread.
81 never dreamed how 1t would
end" weeps the girl hopelessly es-
tranged from her lover by some fool

had no idea 1t would make so much
difference cries the surprised woman
when confronted with the result of
some careless speech or action. Il

serts the unhappy employe who has
tempered with money.
Not one of them Intentionally
worked for such wages as each has
earned. Alas, they did not look
where they were going.

Health Exercise

A new health exercise that women
are engaging in after the bath is to
walk around the room STOPPING to
pick up imaginary flowers from the
ground. first with the right hand and
then with the left.
Girls who wish to grow tail try an
other exercise.
They walk around the room on tip
toe, plucking at fruit, imaginary, of
course, on trees above their reach.
There really is some good to be got
by short girls from this stretching
exercise.
Women also lie down fiat on the
floor and raise the body up from the
waist, keeping the legs and feet per-
fectly STILL some twenty minutes.
This is very healthy exercise.
