IS a new. war arena between the. ex-.
tremes of the European battlefronts
was opened this week by an Anglo
German invasion of Serbia. Three
Teutonic offensives have been devel-
oped along the Drina, Save and Dan
ube rivers, but apparently the start
has had to be made prematurely be-
cause Of the quick movement Of
Anglo-French forces through Greece
to Serbia's, assistance. 7SsFg II.
Confidence in the power Of M.
Venizelos, shown by the allied diplo-
mats at Athens, brought discontinue
on them last week when M. Veni-.
zelos was compelled to resign the
premiership. His retirement was
due primarily to disapproval of his
course by King Constantine, but
there is little doubt that popular
opinion supports the more cautious
attitude of the Greek monarch. M.
Venizelos is an ardent expansionist,
whose supreme confidence in Greece's
ability to expand along the Asia
Minor coast is not shared by other
Athenian statesmen. Probably, in
exchange for contributions by the
Allies toward the coast of Greeces
mobilization, Venizelos tacitlya con-
sented before his retirement from the
premiership to the Decentralization of
allies troop on the Greek coast. A
formal protest by the Athens govern
ment against the landing carried no
weight, because it was obviously
only subterfuge to permit Greece
officially to maintain her neutrality
The new Greek ministry has shown
no evidence, of repudiating Veni-
zelos' agreement. s--...sz
The Allies have thus won the right
to use Greek soil as military base,
even though they have failed to carry
Greece into: the war with them. This
is a privilege Of immense m value,
which may play the decisive part
in the new campaign in the Balkans.
Serbia is mountainous country and,
with Anglo French help reaching the
Serbians by way Of Saloniki, less

der, the Teutons' chances of victory

EATING.

EATING. - We eat to produce
warmth and to eliminate waste. Yet
if we were to overeat, fire up too
much, we would burn out. We must
give the organic structure of our
bodies more thought, study and con-
sideration. We cannot violate the
laws of nature and expect to be blest
with health, strength and vitality. Of
necessity, owing to our conditions of
labor, environments, ETC., we, the
masses, are unable to meet every
reasonable requirement of our being
and so we, the workers, suffer, but
we can at least do the best that we
can under the circumstances, know
ing that it is for our own good.-P.M.

GERMANS BEGIN NEW DRIVE.
Launch Attacks Again Two Points,
Vital to Allies.

London, Aug. 13.-The first moves
in the German plan to launch a great
drive in the west and "end the war by
October" are being made against two
vital sections of the Anglo-French
front in Belgium and around Verdun.
The French cOmmunique tonight
reports strong infantry attack by
the Germans in the region of Nieu-
port, at which point strong reinforce
ments have been arriving from Ger
many. The attack broke down under
the allies fire.
Following on official statement this
afternoon, which reported the repulse
of German attacks between the Binar-
le-Vienne-le-Chatea highway and
the ravine of la Houyette, the Paris
war office tonight states that the
fighting in this section. vital to YER
dun, has resolved itself into an artil-
lery duel, and that infantry attacks
have ceased except for some fighting
with hand grenades.
Berlin has no report to make on
this fighting. except to say that
French attacks against the positions
recently captured by the Germans
have been repulsed.
In Artois. north of Souchez, where
the much-heralded French drive
broke down, quiet has settled. except
for the reDulse of the German effort
to regain the chateau of Careful.
