Request Not Received

Washington, April 13.-The request of Captain Thierfelder, commanding the German cruiser Kronprinz Wilhelm for examination of his vessel by na- val board to determine repairs neces- sary, had not reached navy officials to- night, although presented to the state department today by the German em- bassy. It will probably be delivered tomorrow when officers will be desig- mated to make the examination.
 Secretary Daniels already has di rected Admiral Fletcher. in command of the naval forces at Hampton Roads, to follow the precedents established i'll the Eitel case in dealing with the Vii helm. Captain Thierfelder's request probably will be referred to Admiral Fletcher, who will name the examining board.

T Petrograd, April 13.-(via London April IA, 12:59 a. m.)-The following general headquarters communication was issued tonight:
 On April Il and 12 the battle in the Carpathians developed with great inten- sity from the direction of Bartfield in the direction of Stry. Our corps ad- Nanced on both banks of the Ondawa south of Stropko They captured sev- eral heights to the northeast of Tele- potch and gained a victory in the direc- tion of Uzsok, where, after extremely desperate fighting, the heights in the re- gons of the villages of Bukowitz, Beneff and Vyssokonizy fell into our hands.
 We captured in this section 2700 pris- oners. including 63 officers and we took one gun and 20 machine guns.
 "On the heights south of Volossate, especially in the region of Koziouwka the enemy delivered impetuous attacks in great strength. All of them were re- pulsed with enormous losses to the enemy.
 "Bukowina: On an extended front in the direction of Zale Szczyk (north of Czernowitz) the enemy on the night of the 11th delivered furious attacks in an impenetrable darkness and torrential rain, but everywhere our infantry who met the attacks with the bayonet, maintained the upper hand.
 "On the front west of the Niemen we repulsed several German attacks. In the other sections along the whole of our front collisions between reconnoitering attachments have become more fre- quent."

West Quiet

It the west the French apparently are satisfied with their recent successes be- tween the Mouse and the Lorraine frontier and claim only to have come in contact with the German entanglements in this region. Official German reports assert that determined attacks by the French have been repulsed along this sector.
 Probably no session of the British Parliament since the opening of the war has been awaited with keener interest than the sitting which will begin to- morrow
 dry England, unknown except for a period of two years 150 years ago, is not beyond the possibilities. but the government has given no official hint as to what action may be expected.
 Several days ago an opposition paper published a forecast of the government plan, which, it asserted, contemplated the prohibition of all liquors except light beer. which would be manufac. tured by the government This predic- tion received some conformation to- night from a government organ, which declared the entire business of the man. ufacture and sale of alcoholic liquors is to become government monopoly.

Can't Afford Il.

The other day a merchant sale
he couldn't afford to advertise IL
his home newspaper. 1.-THE mans
view were not distorted. he woulc
see that he couldn't afford not tc
advertise. Refusing to advertise
Is his most extravaganza. That
same merchant will spend hours
telling of the unfair" competi-
ton Of the mail-order houses who
are his most aggressive and dan
gerous competitors. yet the meth
DDS employed by the mail-order
houses which succeed are the
very ones which the merchant
refuses to use. The mail-order
house first Of all is an ADVER-
TISER. Advertising is the life
of its business. Every magazine
that enters the small town and
rural home carries the ad of the
mail-order house. Expensive
catalogs are printed showing the
illustrations of the actual articles.
Occasionally sheets are scattered
broadcast over the country as a
special 'come-on" for the bar
gain hunter. Instead Of doing
these things in a smaller way
through the columns Of his local
paper, the merchant who can't
afford to advertise sits down and
"cusses" his tough luck and
wonders why he can't get the
business. He never thinks he has
q better opportunity to reach the
people in his neighborhood than
the mail-order house has. 1t
doesn't cost him as much as il
does the outsider; he can draw
the people to his store and show
them the actual article he is ad.
vertising. and, when they buy,
they can take their purchase home
with them instead of having tc
wait for several weeks for it. Ad.
vertising is an investment. II
should be charged to your selling
cost. Figure what percentage
you have to pay to advertise,
then base q fifty-two weeks cam.
paign on the computation. You
can't lose. You can't afford MOI
to advertise!
