TEUTONS TURN
ARMY TO EAST
Suddenly Shift Their Forces In
Serbian Invasion.
OBJECTIVE CONSTANTINOplE

London. Nov. S.--An important shift
IN the armies on the pert Of the Teu-
tonic invaders In Serbia has been
made within the past forty-eight
hours-a shift which. eventually. be-
gan simultaneously with the fall OF
Nish into the hands OF the Bulgar.
ians. and which is illustrated by the
Official German and Austrian war Of
fee reports.
Thus the Germans under Won Gall
WITT, after taking Kraljevo and after
Nish had fallen to their Balkan allies,
instead of continuing their southwark
sweep. have turned suddenly TO the
east, with the Orient line as the goal
leaving the continuance OF the In
vasion OF central and western Serbia
to the Austro.Hunrarians which were
last reported fighting along the Bos-
nian frontier. around visegrad. adj
vancing only slowly.
Berlin announces that General Won
Gallmitz's army has reached a point
in the Morava valley northwest Of
Kruseavac. This places the Germans
thirty-five miles from Nish az they can
reach the Orient railroad in a FIVE
mile march at Junis, which lies thirty
miles northwest OF the war capital.
To clear this sector OF the Orient line
of Serbians and thus definitely gain a
clear road to Constatinople. will be
Won Gallwitz's aim. and he Is sup
ported by the Won Koevess' army on
the eastern bank Of the Morava. while
a Bulgarian army is approaching the
railway from the northeast
The troops of the dual monarchy
promptly took up the path the Ger.
mans left. and already have stepped
into their Germanic allies footsteps
all along the line in western Serbia.
They are now moving southwest and
southeast and southwark. with Novi-
bazaar and Mitrovica apparently their
ultimate aim.
In this movement the Austro-Hun-
garians. according to the Official Ger
man statement have driven the Serb
iars from the Gracina heights. and

The main purpose Of the left and
center OF this army chain. military
critics here agree. is to force the
main Serbian forces further and
further south and with pressure from
the Buigarians from the east. drive
the defenders OF the little kingdom
toward the Albanian frontier as the

Where Soap Is Of No Use.

Lapland folk never speak of them
selves as Laplanders. or Laps; they
are the Samelatsh, they say, the un-
known people, the people of whom no
one knows anything. not even whence
they came.
II any mention is made in their
presence of Norwegian, Swedish, Fin
nish or Russian Lapland, their feelings
are sorely wounded. for there is only
one Lapland, they hold, and 1t is their
land, the land of the Samelatsch.
These folk, as other folk. have their
whims and fancies, their little peculi-
arities, too.
They regard soap, for instance, with
profound mistrust, and have no great
faith in washing; no faith at all, in
deed, in washing in warm water.
AS soon as a baby is born they bathe
1t in cold water: and they battle 1t
again, always in cold water, every day
until, should 1t live so long, 1t is two
years old. Then the end comes.
The child is pronounced clean for
life and has never another bath.

HAVE SOME Definite WORK
Farmers Club Should be Medium
Through Which to Set in Motion
Best Sentiment of Community.

No farmers club can attain Its
greatest usefulness. if in fact it can
endure, without having something def
mite to do. Community problems which
require collective effort, such as buy
ing and selling organizations, good
roads, telephone service. schools, pub
lie health. and recreation, may be dis
cussed. There is something lacking
in every community that can be sup
piled by the efforts of its people. 1t
is matter of first determining what
is most needed, and then by concert
ed action getting it. An organization
such as a farmers club should be the
proper medium through which to crys-
talize and set in motion the best senti-
ment of a community. 1t should be
we'll organized and vigorously prose
cuted.
Many business organizations are
formed by farmers each year. Where
ever the facilities for trading and mar
keting are not what they should be,
1t Is advisable to form these associa-
tions. but there are many matters
which should be thoroughly consid-
cred before doing so. 1t is not a
good thing to organize In order to
prevent someone else from making
money. but rather to cut down ex-
penses and to become more efficient.
In fact, the main object should be to
do business more economically.
Business representing a large num-
Der of stockholders cannot be run
successfully without keeping a COM
plete set of records. No organization
should be attempted without first
making sure that such record will be
kept.
A little good advice and caution at
the beginning, at whatever cost, Is
invaluable. The experience OF the
agricultural extension division has
been that often their services are not
called for until the affairs of an enter
prise have drifted into such a condi-
ton that il is extremely difficult TO
right them. The agricultural exten-
sion division will be glad to help all
farmers organizations to start right
and. upon request, will detail some
competent person to meet with the
farmers and assist wherever 1t Is pos
sible to do so. They want to render
assistance when and where 1t will do
the most good. They would like to see
worthy organizations become more
and more efficient and to this end their
services are at the disposal of all.

SHE KNEW ALL THE TRICKS
Party Proved That She Had Once
Been Poor.

She looked rich and acted rich, and
everyone knew that she was rich, be-
cause she had married a rich man, yet
the Sherlock Holmes of the tea party
discovered that she had once been
poor.
Take il from me-" she said, that
there was time, and that not so very
long ago. when she. was as poor as
the rest of u.s.
"Marvelous." exclaimed the other
four girls. How did you discover
that"
Through her knowing so absolutely
where ! keep all my housekeeping
things. She knew that the tea caddy
was in the writing desk, that the
cheese. biscuits. and other edibles be-
loved by mice were in that tin box
under the sofa. that the alcohol for my
stove Vas in the corner behind the
washstand. that the butter and milk
were on the window ledge, and that
the eggs and other raw foods were in
4 box on the bottom shelf of the ward
robe.
When we were cooking she went
straight to the spot and got every one
of those things without once asking
where they were. which is something
that a person who has not had a wide
experience OF housekeeping in one
room could never have done"
