GERMANS FAIL IN
A77AC!K0N WARSAW
New Offensive From South Defeated
for Time Beirg-General Tries to
Do Too : 81, It One Time.
MISTAKE IN D1v1D. Sc a,'RM1Es
Russians Given Reinforcements
Are Within Easy Reach of Reserve
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Unjust.
BY j. w. T. MASON.

New York, July 13.-The Ger
mans have been defeated for the
time being in their efforts to reach
Warsaw from the south. Marshal
Won Mackensen has committed the
frequent Slav error of trying to do
too much at once, and German strate-
gy in the east again is failing to
crush the Russians by decisive de-
feat.
A Single Offensive.
Until the fall of Lemberg, the
Teutonic forces in Galicia were con-
centrated upon a single offensive
the recovery of the lost Austro-Hun-
garian province. But after the Slavs
evacuated Lemberg, Mackensen di-
vided his armies. He sent one COM
mand eastward to drive the Russians
out of the rest of Galicia, while he
himself moved to the north into Po-
land and started for Warsaw. From
that moment the Teutons began to
meet with difficulties.
Large Reinforcements.
The Russians undoubtedly have
sent large reinforcements into south
ern Poland, and Mackensen's diff
culties are furuther increased because
of the better communications at the
disposal of the Slavs The Slavs are
tiOns.
Recovery Not Expected.
There is evidence that the Rus
sian recovery was not expected by
the Germans. An effort is being
made to create the impression that
the fault lies with the Austrians,
whose troops are being used almost
exclusively for the final drive through
eastern Galicia. This accusation is
unjust.
The German general staff is prac-
tically responsible for all the opera
tions against Russia. It was un-
doubtedly German strategic reasons
that caused division of the Teuton-
ic strength after the recapture of
Lemberg. If Warsaw were now in
peril because of the chances taken
by Mackensen, the glory would have
been Germany's. The responsibility,
therefore, for the actual confusion is
equally-Germany's

SEASON TICKETS
FOR Cha Ut AUIQUA
ARE NOWON| SALE.
Necessary to Sell 5000 Worth, at Two
Dollars Each, Before signers Will
Be Released From Guarantee.
COMES HERE AUGUST 8 TO Z
Bemidji's Course One Of Best Pro
vided by Redpath- Vawter Bureau
&C. H. Plattenburg on Program.

Bemidji's first chautauqua is to be
held here August 3 to z, inclusive,
and season tickets, allowing entrance
to all the entertainments were placed
on sale today at two dollars each.
About fifty Bemidji business men
were anxious to secure a chautauqua
for Bemidji and in order to make
necessary arrangements they signed
a guarantee that they would sell at
least $500 worth of season tickets.
II these tickets are not sold they
must make up the deficiency. In
this connection it should be plainly
understood that the receipts at the
gate after the chautauqua has start
ed do not apply on the amount guar
anteed, SO that it is necessary to
sell the 5000 worth of tickets before
the first entertainment in order that
those who have made possible the
chautauqua may be cleared. E@1.
An Excellent Course.
Bemidji's course is one of excel
lence and the tent should be filled to
its utmost at each program. One of
the chautauqua speakers will be c.
H.. Plattenburg, who will discuss the
relation of town and country and
the conservation of business and COM
munity life. = p.

Parents Should be Taught
How to Teach Children to
Live, is Plan Advocated
BY Rev. Frank v. Allen

Advocating a course of study
in the public schools for parents
teaching them to teach child
rem how to live" Rev. Frank
Walter Allen, pastor of the 1st
Christian Church yesterday af-
ternoon scored parents for al
lowing their children Gust to
drift" without any thought or
concern of what may become of
them in after life.
The address was given before
a meeting OF the Patrons club
of the Hay-Edwards school in
the new auditorium at the
schools last Saturday.
Whenever the church and the
school get the point of view
that it is their business to teach
people how to live every day
life and not Immortal" or FAC
ademic" life, there'll be less
heartbreak and Gust drifting"
when they reach maturer age"
Many Many Lives Ruined
"In he many stories of
manned lives and broken hopes
which just now are being pour
ed out from that most terrible
of all realists, the modern news
paper, few episodes have seemed
to us more striking than that
of unhappy girls and women
who "just drift" into wrong.
1t is so typical of our neurotic
age. Men and women come to-
gether in marriage, urged either
by a pafsiue fancy, or by a
mere de ill., to increase their
worldly goods. Some are in love
with love some with the world
but most are in love with ad-
venture.
To all save those few upon
who has decended that great
love which is as rare as true
genius, but which all of us
have hoped at one time or the
other to experience, comes a
day when the mystery of life
has grown commonplace. If
that happens before passion has
been buttressed by affection,
and love by mutual respect,
there is danger of total wreck.
So many of us have not the
power, because we have lost
faith, to keep hold of the stern
ideals of nobler day, ideals
once our own. So we lust
drift"
