EDITORS ARE HUMAN AND
INVITE YOUR ASS!ST lance

We often wonder if it has ever
occurred to some people that editors
are human, and not super-beings
gifted with second sight.
An editor is constantly on the
hunt for news of interest to the
people who read and pay for his
paper, and he never Intentionally
omits any article of importance.
The success of his paper depends
upon his impartiality in this re-
spect.
And vet often come person con-
ceives the erroneous idea that the
editor has purposely left out some
item or their families.
Has it ever occurred to them that
the editor may not have heard Of
that particlar item, although he
searched diligently in his efforts to
secure all of the news?
There is a very effective remedy
for these isolated but inadvertent
omissions. The next time you have
a piece of news concerning your
self, or your family, or your neigh
bors, or Of your community, give it
to the editor yourself, or phone or
write it in to him, and not depend
upon others to do it. They may be
more interested in affairs on their
own side of the fence.
The editor will thank you for
your thoughtfulness in enabling
him to secule news that will add to
the value of his paper and make il
of interest to all of the people, fol
that is his mission in life.
He is human, as well as you.-

RUSSIANS HOLD
POLAND FRONT
Take Offensive and ReCapture
Several Villages.
CHECK FOR THE AUSTRIARS

MuscOVite staff Reports Success lr
the carpathians and on North Po
land Front.
Making claim to marked successes
In the Carpathians and to having de
feated the German offensive campaign
in the north, which never emerged
from its period of preparation" Rus
sian staff officers took an optimistic
view of the outlook along the whole
front.
The German advance from East
Prussia has been stopped, owing
largely to the flooding of rivers and
the melting of snow, while the at
tempt to cross the Bobr river has
been thwarted. A new battle line has
thus been formed in the north along
which there is uninterrupted fighting.
On the other hand, operations in
the Carpathians are developing ra-
pidly, and the Austrians' right flank
is now threatened by the Russian Of
fensive movement. Near Krasne, thir-
ty miles east of Lemberg, the Rus.
SLAMS repulsed an Austrian division
(12,0O0 mem, thus putting a check on
the movements of the Austro-German
forces which were attempting to con-
centrate at Stanislau.
The situation in northern Poland,
however, is regarded as of greatest
immediate importance. The position
of the Germans near Ossowetz is con-
sidered critical, since they are under
attack from the heavy guns of the
fortress and are unable to bring up
their own heavy artillery, owing to
the poor roads. A stubborn fight on
the road to Lomza was won by the
with the result that the i'm.
portant point of Edvabno still remains
In their hands. The only location in
that general vicinity still in dispute
Is Przasnysz, fifty miles west of
Lomza. According to Russian staff Off
GERS the Germans have gathered a
large force near this point and are
expected to attempt an advance.
Along the whole front the Germans
nave been proceeding in six separate
groups.

the close of the program, pledges were
made for nearly one hundred tickets for

beginning.
These Lyceum Courses are of much
benefit to small communities, and should
be attended much more than they have
this season. They are all high class en-
tertainments, and stage the most promi-

A WALKING CLUB.
On Saturday last a number of High
| School girls went on hike" from here
to Harrington, They had such a fine
time and are so anxious to go again that
most of the other girls are interested,
and it is highly probable that a walking
club may be formed.
This would be a great thing for those
girls who live in town, and seldom walk
more than mile at time. They really
, need more exercise; but it is the coun-
| try girls who are most enthused over
the plan, for they are used to walking
and enjoy it.
1t is certainly to be hoped that this
plan will msterialize, for there is moth
ing so stimulating and beneficial to any
person, as an occasional long walk.
To persons not in the best of health,
several mile tramp over a rough road
might do more harm than good, but
shorter trips might be arranged for them.
The Hiking Club" will welcome all
girls who wish to join.

The new method of dealing with the
tardiness of pupils is proving very effec-
tive. The number of late pupils for the
preceding month is still unnecessarily
large, but promises to be diminished eX-
ceedingly during the rest of the school
term. The punishment of staying the
allotted time seems to be threaded much
less than the fear of being beaten by an
other grade.
Since the adoption of the new plan,
the tenth grade have had the lead in the
smallest number late but the average for
the entire twenty days in both this and
conduct, makes their dismissal from the
room, at both noon and night, third in
order. The eleventh grade ranks first
in conduct, and although many are tardy,
bad roads and inclement weather may
be some excuse, as only two members of
the class live in town.
The order of dismissal for the follow )
ing month is ninth, twelfth, tenth. elev-
