EDITORIAL P AGE
BURNING THE CANDLE

The defeat of Jack Johnson by Jess Willard is generally attributed tO his age. From the stand point Of athletics, he IS going down the decliyity of life at the ripe age ot thirty-seyeu. He excelled Will lard in science and skill, but got tired quicker.
 Baseball constantly gives these instances of some less of physi- cal power at an early age. The great majority of the successful players are under thirty. Over that age some lack of elasticity and ell darance commonly begins to unfit d man for the fastest play.
 It would be a melancholy reilec- tion for the average man, if he lad to admit that at the age of tlirty-five he was going down hill In business the years from forty to fifty are commonly called the prime OI life The man who shows decid- ed sigus Of physical decay at fifty uas usually abused himself either oy dissipation or oyerwork.
 Many men start with a meager equipment Of physical strength, but Jy rational exercise and sane living are stronger at fifty, capable of greater physical exerucn, than they were at thirty.
 Young people take Iride in their seeming ability to defy the stupid laws of health. They bolt their food, cut short their sleep, and indulge in harmful vices. The spirit of youth keeps them going, until one day something snaps. It my take years to recover.
 It is often said that the way to live long is to have some incurable disease, for instance, gossiping. The man who starts out with a slender equipment of physical power, by care full husbanding of his forces often lives into the eighties. Meanwhile physical marvels like Jack Johnson CT the ball players throw the cream of their power into moments Of su- prsma strain.
 There may be more physical in such an hour tuaI in years of ploddiug efforts of daily life. IL is yet to be proved that athletic prowess assures either long life or aealthy old age.-PocotellO Tribune.

EffORTSTO stop FARMERS
giving POTATOES TO STOCK

Berlin, Feb. 26, Via London, 11.35
A. M.-The Bundesrath, having learned
that German farmers were using pota-
toes too freely for fodder, has raised
the prices of potato products. 1t is be-
lieved this will prevent the consump-
tion of potatoes by cattle. In the fu-
ture potato flakes will cost sS y ~
220 pounds and potato starch will cost
$12 per hundred Kilograms (220
pounds.
Under their former prices potatoes
were much the cheapest cattle feed
available and farmerswere storing them
for the use of their livestock. The sole
right to manufacture potato products
has been vested in a government con-
trolled company which has been empow-
cred to expropriate potatoes for its pur-
poses.
Frankford on the Main and Mecklen-
burg have decided to follow the ex-
ample of Berlin and introduce bread
cards. The former city limits the per
capita weekly consumption to 400
grams and the latter to 1900 grams.

BURGLARS GET $l5OIN STORE

Pharmacy and Evade Arrest

Thieves who broke into the Camp

valued at $3.50 and escaped. DR.. H..
G. Lawton, proprietor of the pharmacy,

that two strangers who entered the

could throw some light on the burglary
if apprehended.
The burglars got into the store by
forcing entrance to the cellar. They
departed by climbing through window
of the store room. With them they
took jewelry valued at $50, cigars and
tobacco valued at $25, stamps to the
value of So and enough other articles
to make up a total of $50.
The, intruders failed to get into the
safe which was locked before the store
was closed for the night.

AUSTRIANS PICK UP $500
WOUNDED and 5000 dead

Geneva, via Paris, Feb. 26, 5.15 A.
M.-The fighting in the Carpathian
mountains between Russians and Ger
mans and Austrians is becoming rap
idly much like seige warfare, according
to dispatches reaching Geneva from
points near the line of battle.
These messages declare that since
February IS, over 100000 men have
been fighting hand to hand in the Car
pathian trenches without making any
material advance. The wounded are
pouring into Ungvar and Epories, in
Hungary. During the night of Friday,
February 10, taking advantage of lull
in hostilities, the Austrians picked up
at Svidnik $500 wounded men and
over 5000 dead.
The wounded had been lying on the
ground some of them for eighteen
hours without food Or succor. A chief
officer of the Austrian medical depart
ment is authority for the estimate that
20 per cent. of them will be invalids
for life. A majority of the wounded at
Svidnik were wounded in the hand by
rifles butts ard so per cent. of them
will either be partially or totally
blind.

Continued From First Page.


other hand fully expects another Ger
man drive at Warsaw, this time from
the north.
Three warships of the Anglo French
fleet which bombarded the Dardanelles
are said by the Turkish authorities in
statement issued at Constantinople to
have been damaged. The statement
does not refute specifically the British
claim that all of the outer forts of the
Dardanelles were reduced, but conveys
a contrary idea, asserting that the feet
withdrew after a bombardment of IA
hours.
The capture of Przasnysz, in North
ern Poland, by the Germans has not
been confirmed from Petrograd The
latest report from the Russian general
staff speaks of a concentration of Ger
man efforts in the direction of Przas-
nysz. Considerable successes for the
Russians are claimed in actions along
the Warsaw front and in GaHcia, in
which regions, it is said, that impor-
tant points were captured from the Aus
trians and the Germans. The cor
respondent of Cologne newspaper re-
ports that the Russians have suffered
another reverse in Bukowina and that
their final opposition has been shat
tered, the province being cleared of the
invaders.
Fighting between Austria and Monte
negro, which has been almost at
standstill during the mid winter months,
has been resumed. A dispatch from
French sources states that an Austrian
force which attacked a Montenegrin
column in the Austrian province of Bos-
mia was repulsed after violent fight.
Germany is framing reply to the
American note concerning food supplies
for civilians in belligerent countries and
mines and submarines. The hope is
growing in Berlin that the American
proposals may form a basis for nego-
tiatiohs which may lead to an adjust
ment of the difficulties which have aris-
en-. The British Admiralty gave out
statement to the effect that since Feb
ruary 18, when the German naval war
zone decree went into effect, there
have been 7O8 arrivals and 673 sailings
from British ports of the United King
dom, and that German submarines have
sunk seven vessels.

HOPES TO RETAIN PASTOR
Fifth Street Congregation Wants the
Rev. B. H. Hart for Fifteenth Year

AS the time of the annual confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
Church of the Central Pennsylvania
district draws near, the members of the
Fifth Street Methodist church are
growing anxious about the retention of
their pastor, the Rev. B. H. Hart, who
has been at the church for the last
fourteen years. 1t is feared by some
that he will be transferred, while others
are of the opinion that change is
unlikely.
Although at one time Methodist min
listers were not permitted to stay at
one church more than three years, and
later not more than five years, such
restrictions were removed some years
ago, and there is now no prescribed
limit 1t depends now chiefly on the
conference, and the Fifth Street people
do not want their energetic pastor ta-
ken away from them.
j. W. Fenton, prominent member of
the congregation, said this afternoon:
"I do not think that the pastor will
be transferred.
