A contemporary suggests that the
little kingdom is between the nippers
of the Teuton forces and their Turk
ish and Bulgar Allies upon land, and
the fleet of the Allies, maintaining at
present commercial blockade of the
country, upon the sea. In this predi-
cament it must decide either to afford
freedom of movement for the Allies
over its soil or else intern the Ser
bian army when this shall retire be-
fore the Bulgars to Greek soil.
The question of Greek alliance has
been one of benefit and undoubtedly
the Allies have shaken the bag and
should Greece accede to their de-
mands it will be due to the fact that
the inducement has been made sufi-
GENTLY attractive. There has un-
doubtedly bee nshsrp secret diplo-
matte play in the Greek alliance con-
test that will ramify for many years
in influence for good or i'll of the
Greek people according to the for
tunes of war.

THE WAR OF
EXHAUSTION.

The question which one hears most
frequently now is, How much longer
will the the war in Europe last?
The Germans have lost nothing in
the field in the last six months aid
have made great gains in territory
in Galicia, Poland, Russia and re-
Gently in the Balkans. But they have
not solved the vital problem that
confronts them as well as the Allies,
and the burden which they all bear
has only grown heavier and more
hopeless. Ali of the belligerents are
putting on brave face and all of
them are endeavoring to conceal their
real distress. But their own admis-
sions make it clear that they are
rapidly approaching point where OK.
haustion may Iorce them to consider
the question of peace
The Baltimore Sun says:
So far as Germany's military
strength is concerned, she still is
more than able to hold her own. The
Allies cannot drive her out of France
and Belgium and the Russians can
not drive her out of Russia. And there
seems no immediate prospects Of
wrestling the Balkans from her. From
a purely military point of view she
is in the ascendant. But a devouring
fox is gnawing at her vitals. The food
question and the financial question arc
sapping her strength under the SUI
face and undermining the national
power of resistance She is virtual
~ in a state of seige, and though
she has enlarged the boundaries of
her prison she has not lessened her
burdens on added anthing permanent
TO her living resources.
Similar burdens are bearing hea-
Willy upon England. France, Russia.

The school registers are showing repeated exam ple5 of pupils, formerly careless in at tendance, who are now regular. One boy was turned over to the police and given to understand what awaited him unless he put education first and play second. As cold weather comes on, and pressure is brought to bear upon the delinQuents, the excuse of a. lack of clothing becomes more frequent. In such cases the parents are urged to provide or ask the town for help. As a result the selectmen have Siven away at least II pairs of shoes to school children. The officer feels that the parents and children throughout the town are taking a keener interest in school attendance.
