It holds certain price fixing agree.

Village Life.

The old-fashioned village life is rap
idly fading in the United States. Back
in New England, away from large
cities, some of the quaint charm still
surrounds the primitive groups Of vii
lage houses and the ever-present vii
lage square" also a feature of all
English villages. For the population
village life means much more than
city life Our illustration presents a
view of the village of Braunton, said
to have been founded by ST. Brannock,
an Italian missionary who went there
to labor A. D. 300. All those farming for
miles about live in the village, not upon
the land. Thus a village population
easily represents a larger area than
that of the larger cities. Early vii
lagos in this country were founded for
like purposes.

 However, with the railway destroy ed, it may be some days before Greece is called upon to take action and by that time the Anglo-French force should be safe in the defences ot Salonilzi and under the guns of their ships.
 Serbians Still Resisting.
 The remnants of the Serbian army are still resisting the Austrians and Bulgarians in Albania while the Aus trians are making very slow progress in their efforts to overwhelm MOntene- gro, where heavy fighting continues.
 Only small actions have taken place on the eastern and western fronts. On the Gallipoli peninsula a fall of snow is impeding the operations, although the entente allied ships keep things lively for the Turks, whose attempt at an offensive last week seemed to have failed.

 The German official report of today claims that approximately two Eng fish divisions were annihilated" during the retirement, but this is considered here as exaggeration. Accounts from Athens and Saloniki say the retreat was carried out in orderly manner and without heavy losses.

 The question now arises whether the RuIearians nd Austro Germans intend to follow the British and Trench troops into Greece and what action the Greek government will take should they do so The impression gained rom despatches emanating in Athens is that neither the Bulgarians nor the Turks, who also are reported to nave arrived near the frontier. would be
