THE RENAISSANCE OF
 THE KISS

(By Mary Moncure Parker, in Chica-
 so Herald Why don't you kiss her in the morn ing when you say good-by! Tt may be somewhat difficult, but then suppose you try. Perhaps she wears an old kimono' and her hair in kids, And she looks so unattractiye that Cupid's auto sldds. But. old fellow. just remember that you are no Apollo, Although that statement may be rather hard for you to swallow. You've grown quite bald, and very red. and nessi-paunchy. too. Though she is weather-beaten, Old Time has whacked at you. Don't you recall that when you mar rled she was "a stunning gal"? Her temper's sharp, but, after all, she's been a dandy pal. From grinding bread and butter cares romance is apt to fly. Well. then-just kiss her in the morn ing when you say good-by.

LONDON. November 9.-Every day,

Serbian armies, which are lighting des-
pcrately to hold back the Austro Ger
man forces. pressing them from the
north, and the BulGarians. invading
their country from the east. until the
assistance their allies are sending can
reach them
The Bulgarians have extended their
grip on the Belgrade -Saloniki railway
north and south of Nish. and have oc-
cupied Lcskovac, south of the captured
capital. and Alcksinacv, to the north.
AZ the latter point they are in close
touch with the German army, which
after occupying krusevac, extended it's
left wing as far as Djunis. on the left
bank OF the Bulgar Morava

The Austro-German forces, advanc-

except In the west. where they are be-
ing held by the MontcncSrins. The in
radinS forces are now reaching the
most difficult part of Serbia. the noun
famous region. where the natives.
knowing every hill and gully. can offer
the strongest resistance. The Aus
trians and Germans. however. are
plentifully supplied with mountain
guns. with which they expect to drive
the defenders from their Businesses
In the south the ever growing
strength OF the French and British
forces is beginning to tell They are
carrying an energetic offensive
against the Bulgars. have managed to
keep the railroad clear as far as veles
and are barring the BulGars' route to
Monastir.
While 1t will be some time before
the Germans can sufficiently repair the
northern end of the railway for the
transport of troops and munitions, their
successes have enabled them to send
supplies to the Bulgarians and the
Turks by the Danube as far as Niko-
polls, from which point they can be
sent by rail to Sofia and Constanti-
nople.

The campaigns on the ether fronts
continue without any important
changes. The Russians are still at
tacking in the north and south, and
are commencing to harass the German
forces In the center. which, it is be-
