THE EUROPEAN CONFLICT
AS SEEN FROM DAY TO DAY

at many points were frontier troops
sent across the boundary. tina. high
expectations were raised OF tho sud
den development OF military gen.
uses In Italy.
Italy has shown that her blows
are now seen to be nothing like as
heavy as were the German thrusts
In August II Is as yet too early 10
oritieise the Italians fully, but o
feeling Is beginning to be created
that too many offensives have been
undertaken at once. Besides the
Known movements OF troops toward
Trieste and through the Alpine pass.
% it is understood that expeditions
are being sent TO the Dardaneiles.
and there have been suggestions
that large bodies OF troops are being
ferried across the Adriadc TO Al
banla end Dalmatia.
The danger. therefore. seems 10 be
real that Italy has read too wei the
lessons OF a quick offensive. The
Italian general stan may be over
exerting itself and trying to accom-
rllsh too much.

AL WiIks In Dakota

All Wilks returned last Satur-
day from Haynes N. D. where
he bought a load of % mules and
br0ugis tiiem here. He was gone
about ten days on the job and
got a car of fine mules, he says.
He met there A. w. Peterson a
former occupant of the Parks
farm who is doing well. Mr..
Wilks liked the northern country
where he found a bunch of men
harvesting a fine wheat and oats
crop with prospects for good
corn as well. He says the man
who sold him the mules said they
had cost him nothing utpasture
as he had never fed them a bit
of grain. They had gained their
substance from the range. He
also saw lots of fat cattle there
that had likewise fattened en-
tirely on the range. Altogether,
he was pretty much impressed
with the northern part of the
U. S. where the climate is cold
in winter, but of a dry steady
cold that spells health instead of
sickness to the man who has
been used all his life to change
able weather such asis prevalent
in the Mississippi river valley.

Big Masonic Meeting

When Westville Lodge No. 2O2
was called to order a week ago
Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock
there were representatives from
every Masonic Lodge in Charlton
county, one Masonic Lodge in
Macon county and four Masonic
Lodges in Linn Co. There was
work in the third degree, ex-
emplified in the careful way
characteristic of the WestvilIe
Lodge, following which there
was an adjournment for supper.
The supper was one that called
for the highest praise from every
visitor.
1t was prepared by the wives
and daughters of the members
of Westville Lodge. and there
was not only abundance but the
best of everything for which
Charlton is noted. One enthusias-
tic Mason said that he had travel
ed four hundred miles for the
privilege of being present on
their occasion. In the crowd there
were two who had been members
Of the fraternity for over fifty
years and one who was made a
Mason forty-fve years ago.
After supper the third degree
was conferred.
The following lodges were rep.
resented:
Brookfield, Brunswick, Bucklin
Callao, Keytesville. Marceline,
Pee Dee, Prairie Hill, Salisbury,
Triplett and Rothville.
The Keytesville delegation was
made up of C. O. Sterner and

School Gets Money

Attorney General Barker has
reversed his opinion wherein he
held that one third of revenue
derived from licesnse and other
indirect tax could not be appor-
toned to the state school fund.
Auditor Gordon objects to the
juggling and wants the case tried.
Governor Major said in a speech
Tuesday at Shelbina that if the
Supreme court decided against
the schools being entitled to a
portion of this fund, he would
call an extra session of the legis-
lature and have the matter set
right. All three are running
again on their records?
