H1iteracy Census.

The school trustees of Kentucky
will be given an opportunity to play
an important part in the illiteracy
campaign. They are being asked by
the County Superintendents. the
State superintendent and the Ken
lucky Illiteracy Commission to- take
a census in April, at the time when
they are taking a census of the pupil
children, of all who cannot read, or
write. Their names will be reported
to the Kentucky Illiteracy Commits
sion, at Frankfort. This is a move
in the right direction. No doubt,
the trustees will count it a high priv
ilege to serve the State in this way.
1t will require very little extra exer-
ton, and will help to show Ken
tucky's real standing. Also, it will
enable the Kentucky Illiteracy Com
mission to know where illiteracy is
most prevalent, and II may be send
ing out the lifeline to many de-
prived man or woman. School au-
thorities are lending hearty co-opera-
ton. and the public will await the
results with interest. Above all
things, this census should be accu-
rate. There is nothing to be gained
by either concealing or overestimat-
ing the illiteracy of county.

over a victorious army.

waving over a victorious army.
Another species OF eciton travels
in columns, with larger and lighter
colored officers rushing up and down,
keeping them in line. Sometimes
these columns measure 300 yards in
length. If a human being were to
disturb them, they would attack him
with all the ferocity of their nature.
They climb above the shoe tops and
sink their jaws into the skin. And
the unfortunate human, when he had
run far enough, would have to stoop
down and pick them off.
The blind ecitons travel under the
leaves, and when they come to bare
space of ground they burrow under
II and make a remarkable tunnel.
Sometimes these pestiferous crea-
lures take it into their heads to in
wade a house. They separate their
forces so that they enter every door
and window, and none of the insect
inmates get out but winged ones.
The rats and insects know their doom
is upon them.
So, after all, the soldier-ant in
vasion is in one way a disguised
blessing.

Some Forms of Rheumatism Durable.
Rheumatism is disease charac-
terized by pains i'm the joints and in
the muscles. The most common
forms are: Acute and Chronic Rheu-
matism, Rheumatic Headaches, Scia-
tic Rheumatism and Lumbago. All
of these types can be helped abso-
lutely by applying some good lini-
ment that penetrates. An applica-
ton of Sloan's Liniment two or three
times a day to the affected part will
give instant relief. Sloan's Liniment
is good for pain, and especially Rheu-
matte Pain, because it penetrates to
the'seat of the trouble, soothes the
afflicted part and draws the pain.

SPOIL GOOD STORY

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2O.-The needle

most fantastic stories yet weaved by
the imaginative young artists sniping in
Peacock alley. credited President Gwin-

the Athletic ball club.
One New York paper soberly printed
this assertion far up in the double
column BREWER lead to its baseball story
in Sundays issue.
Now for an official bouquet OF facts.
President BENJAMIN Shibe: MY iR-
terest I'm the Athletic club Is not for

is no prospect that 1t will ever be on
the market"

August Hermann Looks
For Baseball Peace
Before Week Is Out

CINCINNATI. Ohio. Dec. 2O.-"There
is absolutely no truth in any statement
to the effect that an agreement has
been signed looking toward peace be-
tween organized baseball and the Fed
eral League" said August Hermann,
chairman OF the National Baseball
Commission. here last night when
shown q statement from Chicago to the
effect that an agreement had been
signed in New York. That is what the
committees will meet here Tuesday for -
continued Hermann.
Peace. in the belief of Hermann, is a
certainty, and, according to his state
ment upon his arrival from New York,
will almost surely be a settled fact be-
fore the end of the week. but he insisted
that nothing had been signed.
When ked II he would say what de-
tails had Neen agreed upon, Hermann
replied.
II cannot do that. inasmuch asS the
other details have not heen decided
upon, and all details must be agreed to
before peace can ensue. I am very op-
timistic as to the outcome"

DARTM MOUTH REFUTES
PROSELYT|NGC CHARGE
Investigation Shows That No
Attempt Was Made to Get
Player.

Early in the season a story came
from the Middle West to the effect
that Dartmouth was trying to we2n
from the University of Minnesota a
football player named Quist. The
story was accredited to DR.. NJ. L. Viii.
liams. the Minnesota coach. ami II
looked as though a rather raw case
of proseiyting had come to light.
Dartmouth alumni were so indig-
nant when they read the story tina u
they began at once a thorough inves-
tigation of the matter. A statement
of the facts discovered appears i'm
the current issue Of the Dartmouth
alumni magazine, and shows clearly
that the story was the result of a
| Misunderstanding and that Dartmouth
! men were in no way to blame. The
statement reads in parte as follows:
"cuist had for some years past been
more or less interested in Dartmouth
! College. He, had talked with various
alumni of the institution and had
learned from them that an impecuni-
Gus boy who can satisfy Scholarship
conditions may secure. aid from the
college to the extent of $50 toward
the $40 tuition charge. Beyond this
small opportunity, which is open to
| all alike, he had received. no special
announcement.
Shortly after the opening of tue
football season this fall, however, Quist
called upon DR.. Williams and inquired
as to his prospects for a place on the
Minnesota team. In course of the con-
versatiou he suggested to DR.. Williams
| that he had an excellent opportunity 10
! 20 to Dartmouth. Or. Williams, assum-
ing the complete accuracy of Quists
st9tanents and reading INTO them per-
| haA7 more than the actual words war
ranted, later made some unEuarded re-
marks to newspaper reporters, who
seized upon thom and gave them wide
publicity.
Inquiry on behalf Of the Dartmouth
alumni council was conduct I'm Mime
| sofa by Henry D. Thrall OF the class
of 1905. In letter to Mr. ThralI. under
date of OctUSer 20. 1915, Or. Williams

they would be left out in the final

ALLIES MAY BE PUSHED
ACROSS THE GREEK BORDER
Russians Partially Deny Defeat Claim
ed By The Germans In The
Fighting In Parts of Galicia

LONDON, NOV I6.-The exact situa-
ton in Central Macedonia is uncertain,
according to dispatches from the near
eastern conflict, and the doubt as to
the time they refer injects additional
elements of uncertainty. 1t is clear,
however, that the Bulgarians have been
reinforced, and have begun new Of
fensives.
These operations present powerful
menace to the armies of Serbia and the
operations of the Allies, who are said
tc be moving between Tetovo through
Perlepe to the southwestern Serbian
frontier.
According to accounts from Rome
in kilograms received almost simui-
taneously from Greece, they announce
that Tetovo is in the hands of both the
Scrbians and Bulgarians. The prepon-
derance of evidence points to Bulgar-
rian occupation, though.
The Bulgarians are making desper-
ate efforts to force their way through
Hatchanik Pass towards Pristan. They
are also attempting to advance from
Tetovo 10 Perlepe and Monistir oy
forcing the Babuna Pass, and then
reach Perlepe from the other side.
These movements are said to place
Monistr again in danger.
1t is a problem as to whether the Al
lied forces are large enough to meet
tie Bulgarian onslaught.
What Greece will do in the event the
Allies are forced across the Greek bor-
der is still a matter of speculation. A
message from Greeces says that the
government mas EXTENDED IHe oefDldHS
the same privileges accorded the Brit
ish and French. In view of no def
mite announcement as to what these
privileges are, the intentions of the
Greeks are obscure.
In Galicia the Russians admit yield
ing some ground, but do not concede
that they have been forced back across
the river Styr Further details are nee
essary to determine the exact status
in this region.
There is nothing new on the western
front.
