BRIEF WAR NEWS

The end of six months of Europes
great war finds the armies of the ma
tions completing arrangements for a
new series of operations or actually
engaged in campaigns the extent OF
which hardly was anticipated when
the declarations of hostilities were
made. In Flanders, France and Cen
trail Poland a deadlock still exists, but
largely because of Russia's tremen
dous and the action of Tur-
key, the sphere of operations has
been widely extended.
Russia alone is engaged in fighting
hostile armies from Tilsit, far In the
north of east Prussia, to Tabriz, In
Persia, a distance of more than 1900
miles. Only that portion of her terri
tory bordering on Roumania Is free
from menace but according to her re
ports all is going we'll with her i'm
mense armies. The Russian outflank-
ing movement in northern east Prus-
STA is said to be gaining momentum
The armies on each side OF Tilsit
have cut the German railway between
that city and Memel on the Baltic.
On the southern front in east Prus-
STA another army is advancing toward
the German fortress of Thorn, while
still another is holding a line OF en-
trenchments which protect Warsaw
and which General Won Hindenburg
has been trying to batter through for
three months. Other armies are again
preparing to meet a big Austro-Ger-
man force which is attempting to re-
gain Galicia and Bukowina, thereby
turning Grand Duke Nicholas left
wing.
Battles in the west still consist OF
local engagements, although the Ger
mans, who apparently are preparing
for an extensive offensive before the
allies get their full strength into the
field, occasionally deliver rather more
serious attacks. These are scattered
all along the front from the sea to the
Swiss frontier, but always come back
to that portion of the allies line which
lies between the Germans and the
French coast towns.
The ATgonne, too, has been the
scene of another attack. and in this
case, according to a German report,
success fell to Emperor Williams
forces, who say they have taken over
700 pris ;ners and counted between
400 and 500 dead. M >
To the eastward the Muscovite
troops are battling against the Turks
in the Caucasus and Persia. They ap-
parently have inflicted another defeat
on the Turkish forces, for the Russian
official report says their opponents
are r~etreati4g to Tabriz, while unoffi-
cial dispatches say that the Russians
have ~reoccupied that city.
There has been more outpost fight
ing in the vicinity Of the Suez Canal,
but the latest reports say the Turks
are withdrawing their advance posts.
There still is some doubt whether they
have definitely committed themselves
to the march they must make across
the desert to invade Egypt,

How You Can
Grow Diamonds

Say, John. that's a mighty fine dia-
mond you have there"
You bet it is. Nothing better. Worth
a bunch of money"
II can see that all right, but / can't
see how you got ALL that money to-
gether at one time to buy a stone like
that"
Il didn't. 1 grew this one"
Grew It? What's the joker"
mo Joke at all. I'm perfectly serious.
You know I always wanted a large dia-
mond ring, but never had enough at one
time to get one. usually had a few
dollars left out of my salary. but the
amount I saved never got within speak
ing distance of ring like this. Well.
one day. while walking past Edholm's
jewelry store, l saw a snowy little ring
marked SIS. which was just the amount
l had saved up. / went in. looked at II,
and while II was not like this one, Il
Edholm then explained that in case /
wished a larger stone later on. that SIS
diamond was worth IN trade exactly
what l paid for II. Well. 20 make a long
story short. I exchanged that SO stone
for one worth $50; the $50 one for an 90
one. the SIS one for a $50 one ana the
$50 one for this one. and as I never
missed the money that way. figured
that I grew this diamond from the So
