KEEPING THE TOWN ALIVE

Every country town has a
problem to face. In fact, it has
many problems to face. But the
one we refer especially to is
that Of keeping the town alive.
Life in a country town is just
about what you make it. 1t is
up to the citizens. People de-
mand amusement. And they
ought to have it. Baseball, bands,
ETC., serve to pleasantly pass the
hours. Without amusement, the
country town is just as lively
and progressive as any first
class cemetery. With so many
of our smaller towns dead to the
world in the amusement line, it
doesn't require a seer to see why
the young people leave for the
cities. Give the young people
wholesome amusement in the
country, and they will stay. The
problem is an easy one to solve.

DETA|N RECRUITS
FOR British army
Questioned by Federal Officials
They Deny They Are Going
to Enlist.

Chicago, June 21.-Federal offic-
ials Saturday intercepted squad of
twenty-six recruits for the British
army bound from San Francisco to
New York. They were headed by
Lieut.. Kenneth Croft, who said he
was on his way to England to re-
join his regiment.
After being taken to the federal
building and questioned the men
continued east. Government agents
at New York and Detroit were noti-
fled of their movement. Federal
agents, armed with warrants charg-
ing violation of neutrality laws by
enlistment in the army of a bellig-
erent nation, met the men. They all
denied they had enlisted, and the
warrants were not served. All were
Englishmen. ...
Edward Qualtrough of Liverpool,
one of the men, told the officials a
British society in San Francisco was
transporting them to England.

Essad Pasha, provisional presi-
dent Of Albania, and former COM
mander of the Turkish forces nj
Scutari, is said to have fled to Italy.
Serbian troops have been operating
in Albania for some time and the
Serbian war Offices have announced
the occupation of considerable ter

as their ultimate objective. Italy

night says the German emperor him
self has taken supreme command of
the Galician campaign, establishing
his headquarters in Sile, as near to
the front as practicable.
Meanwhile the German official
communication records the further
progress of the Austro-German fore
es toward Lemberg, both to the
north and south of the city. 1t
claims that the Russians have been
cleared from parts of the Dniester
to the south.
The great question England and
her allies are asking is whether
Grand Duke Nicholas, commanding
the Russian forces, can successful
ly emulate Joffre's tactics of last fall
and check the Austro-German forces
at the gates of Lemberg.
Optimists point out that the
grand duke checked them almost at
the gates of Warsaw, just as Gen.
eral Joffre stopped the Germans be-
fore Paris and Field Marshall Sir
John French stopped them before
Ypres, Dunkirk and Calais.
1t is argued further that even
should Lemberg fall, the Russians
can drop back to equally formidable
positions, utilizing the rivers and
swamps and other advantages. and
it is the British contention that
they could thus hold out for months,
England and France in the mean
time sending to their aid men and
if necessary.
Whether Russia has sufficient am
to meet the present strain
is a question which cannot be an
swered in England, although the
London papers say frankly that the
shortage is acute.

considerable proportions has already
begun from Lemberg, says the Morn
ing Posts Petrograd correspondent.
London, June 21.-After seven
weeks batter'ng across Galicia, dur
ing which the Russians have been
thrown back more than $50 miles,
the Austro-Germans are today as
close to Lemberg as were the Ger
mans to Paris after their first dash
across France last fall.
Never perhaps since the battle of
the Marine, have the Teutonic allies
so confident of success.
Having failed in their original
plan of crushing France, and then
turning to Russia, they have revers-
ed the order of their strategy and
now, judging by the expenditure Of
life and ammunition in Galicia, they
have pinned their whole faith in so
paralyzing the Russian army as to
permit of the throwing of a tremen-
dous weight of men and metal into
the western theater, there either to
break through the Franco-British
lines or force an interminable per-
iod Of sanguinary warfare.

The interest the city has In this
