philosopher to trace influence on
Democracy to that dance.
Some folks don know the diff
ference between joke and knock

it shows the victim is too serious

Address X-Post
Wanted-To meet a man who
doesn t know how to run the Wom-
ans College.
Somebody said The Post was the
Life" Of Newark. We didn t
know we were as bad as that.
The reason so many people fail
to understand this Neighborhood
Meeting is this It's free, for the
benefit of nothing in particular and
everybody in general. One man
said, "It s fine but what S it the
benefit for?" Another, Refresh
ments served free, without an
nouncement-there's something up
in this community"
Right first time, you are. There s
something up. The Bull Moosers
will capture the Town Convention
if you don t watch out.
The editorial last week on the
concrete pavements turned the trick |
Scarcely was the Post off the press
when the talk began. All those
whose lives so closely conform to
their words began, called us up
and raised Old Ned. "Why don t |
you practice what you preach?
We have caught you this time"
etc.-all just as if it had not been
a subject Of Shop discussion before.
And this is to say, that old disrep-
utable building on the corner is be-
ing fixed up as fast as we can, and
with the coming Of spring more
changes are anticipated. The con-
dition of the Post pavement is not
pertinent to the issue. It's all
right, anyway, the width of six feet
according to regulation. And
some there are in town with no
at all, with a three foot
ditch as adOrnment. We know this
because we fell in it once.
The question at issue is: Concrete
would be a fine thing
and our suggestion was merely for ;
Of those "who prac- 5
tice what they preach. -

Paris and from the battlefield Of
the Marne river, northeast Of
Paris, the German right wing, un-
der Gen. Won Kluck, entrenched
on the north side of the Aisne
river from the town Of Com
piegne, on the Disc river about
eighty miles northwest of Paris,
to the famous old city of Rhiems.
Then it cmbattled its heavy artil-
lery in the foothills of the Arden
nes mountains north of Rheims.
Thus firmly placed, the Ger
mans have withstood the contin-
ual infantry and artillery as
saults. They have lost only
about fifteen miles of ground
since the battle began. The Allies,
under Gen. French and Gen. Jof-
fre, are making a siege Of the
struggle, and they expect this to
be one of the deciding battles of
the war.
Decisive Turn Soon.
The German left wing, extending
eastward from Rheims to Verdun,
near the Alsacian border and thence
along the FrenchGerman border to
the Swiss boundary line, has been
more offensive in its operations than
has the right wing. The Notifications
around Verdun have been almost con,
stantly assaulted with Krupp guns of
the heaviest type, but they have held

For a time, say from the eighth to
the fourteenth day of the battle of the
Aisne, the fighting was simply an ar,
tillery duel. TIE infantry of both
sides lay low during the day and as
saulted only at night. This was SC
eXhausting that the infantry activi
ties became decidedly weak.

The battle of the Aisne river, in

London, Sept. 29.-Desperate fight
ing continues in northern France,
where the allied French and British
armies are at grips with the German
forces In what is characterized as the
crucial action of the siXteen-day battle
of the Aisne.
Beyond admitting this fact the Off
cial statements are vague. Few de-
tails of the struggle which may be the
turning point in the western campaign
have been given out. One sentence in
which there is mo change in the situ-
ation," epitomizes the official reports
from London, Paris and Berlin.
The allies claim to have made slight
advances here and there, notably on
the heights of the Meuse. The Ger
man official statement, however, de-
clares that reports concerning VIC
torious advance of the enemy are un-
true. Both the British and the French
official statements refer to the yio-
lence of the attacks made by the Ger
mans, who seem to have redoubled
their efforts In an attempt to hurl back
the allied line. The reports indicate,
however, that the French and British
have given no ground before the on
slaught OF the invaders. A very rigor-
Gus censorship has evidently been i'm
posed at virtually all points, particu-
larly in London, regarding the opera
tions at the front, as very little news
