will be Of such definite nature as to re-
move all doubt in London and Paris.
Since Serbian troops retreated into
Greek territory last week, after the fall
of Monastir, no word Of their movements

1t is declared positively. however, that
the Serbs have been allowed to retain
their arms and are making way along the
frontier to join the Anglo-French forces.
Only minor clashes with the Teutonic

most severe fighting in the Balkans is
going on south Of Plevlie. In this region
the fierce resistance OF the Montenegrins
is reported to have checked the Austrian

Rum Efficiency in War.

The injurious effects of alcohol in
the impairment of bodily and mental
efficiency are as apparent in war as
in time of peace. Sir John Jellicoe,
Great Britain's renowned naval com
mander, said lately: by careful and
prolonged tests the shooting efficiency
of the men has proved to be 80 per
cent worse after the rum ration than
before it." In other words, ration of
rum makes seventy of Great Britain S
sea-fghters without rum equal to
with rum. Again, with rum
the men are compelled to shoot a hun.
dred times as against seventy times
without rum, to produce the same re-
suits. Other things being equal, sew
enty of the enemy without alcohol are
equal to one hundred of Great Brit
aims naval fighters with their ration
Of rum. In civil life, the odds against
the man who drinks are perhaps as
great, if not greater.

A Tip to Sportsmen

Ii is mistaken belief among many
sportsmen that the stimulation of
.alcohol is beneficial in overcoming the
discomfort of cold and fatigue. Science
has shown conclusively that alcohol
reduces the temperature in interfering
with combustion and by throwing the
warm blood into the skin, where it is
rapidly cooled, thus opening the way
for numerous physical ailments. Great
Britain has found that the regular
rum ration to her troops in the field
last winter reduced their resistance
to cold and infection. This winter hot
liquid foods in large measure will take
the place of the rum sham, that the
ravages of last winter may not be re-
peated. This food will be stimulating
palatable and hot, for cold food must
be raised to the temperature of the
body before it can be digested.
