ENEMIES BATTLING
FOR ALSATIAN HILL
French Hold Strategic
Point After Several
Days of Fighting.
BY GORDON GORDON-SMITH.

Basic, Feb. 2S.-After a lull Of a
couple Of weeks imposed on the French
and German forces by the heavy snow
falls the struggle in Upper Alsace has
been resumed with greater ferceness
than ever The visit Of President Poin-
care to the Alsatian territory won
back at the point Of French bayonets,
if it arouses the enthusiasm of the
French. excites the fury Of the Ger
mans.
As consequence. since Monday last
the thunder Of the guns of the oppos-
ing forces has not ceased day or night.
After shutdown the French and Ger
man searchlights sweep over the plain
Of Alsace. seeking out the positions Of
the enemy's batteries.
The great struggle is for the posses
sion of the Sudelkopf This is an of
shoot of the "Ballon" of Guebwiller,
and has a height of ! ,009 metres. II
lies three and a half kilometres to the
northwest Of Hartmannoweller kopf,
between the "Ballon" Of Guebwiller
and the Molkenroin II is reached
from the east by the valley of Rim
bach, which has at its extremity the
town of Soultz. II is Of great strategic
importance. az the side possessing Y
can easily repulse attacks either from
Soultz or Guebwiller The success Of
the French in this direction proves
that their battle front has developed
considerably in westerly direction.
For three days past gray clad Ger
man infantry and blue coated French
,troops have been fighting desperately,
with varying fortunes. The ceaseless
rattle Of the rife fire, dominated only
by the thunder Of the heavy batteries,
goes on all day, and time and again
positions are taken and retaken at the
point of the bayonet The loss is
heavy on both sides. and for four days
past an endless stream of ambulance
trains has been pouring through Null
helm, bound for the base hospitals In
Southern Germany.
But in spite of all the efforts Of the
Germans to dislodge them the French
still hold the crest of the Sudelkopf.
This renders the villages on the lower
slope, which were momentarily in the
possession Of the Germans. untenable.
Slowly but surely the advance Of the
French is being pushed forward.
In spite Of the whirling snowstorm
which raced amono the heights Of
Upper Alsace all Monday and Tues
day, the battle never ceased to rage
desperately. The important villages
held by either Of the adversaries have
greatly suffered; some Of them are lit
tie better than heaps Of ruins.

Mays of the Frog.

The extent to which the actions Of
animals are determined by pure unrea-
soning instinct is a matter of some dis
pute It has been stated that frog
will snap at any small moving object
regardless of it's character and of hum
ger or safety. Some experiments seem
to indicate that the frog is capable OF
greater discrimination than has been
credited to him. Thus, for example, a
frog was offered hairy caterpillars,
which it promptly seized and with
equal promptness spat out again. But
after about from four to seven such
injudicious attempts the frog had learn
ed his lesson and thereafter refused
similar fare. In another experiment
earthworms were so connected with a
source of electricity that the frog re-
ceived a shock on touching the worm.
The frog duly devoured the prey and
showed no signs of discomfort How,
ever, he refused for seven days to
touch another earthworm, while he
freely devoured other species OF
worms. Similarly the frog could be
taught to avoid worms on which oil OF
cloves or calcium chloride had been
spread, although such "doctored" prey
was not spit out. but only digested.-

Sunshine and Air.
Sun bathing and outdoor life are the
best means for making red blood
writes DR.. J. II. Kellogg in Good Health
When one goes out into the sun the
skin gets tanned a brown color This
influence of sunlight is not seen simply
upon the surface Of the skin. The col
oring matter is formed and developed
deeper in. The suns rays strike down
in and penetrate perhaps for an inch OF
two into the soft tissues, so that the
influence of the sun is felt on the int
rior of the body as well as on the out
side.
