JOINS OIL TANK GREW.

clifton, Okla, June 10.-The rough
huts of the oifield, the devil-may-care
atmosphere of the new settlement,
and the tough character from the
camps have no terrors for Miss Te-
resa Poirier, who has set this town
by the ears by throwing up her nice
job in a New York office and joining
the oil-tank crew of clifton. She is
on the job in the yards of the Santa
Fe Railroad, checking up the mate
rial arriving for the construction of
big storage tanks. Each of the big
tanks holds $4,000 barrels of oil and
it takes seven cars to hold the neces-
sary material. The girl has outdone
all the men checkers ever engaged
in the work, and she knows exactly
the amount of material taken by
each teamster from car. She
checks up the work of 100 wagons
daily. Although used to the polished
ways of the city, she has found favor
with the "skinners" who are hired by
the tank company. These tough char
acters have made her the queen of
the camp, and she is as safe with them
as in her New York fiat. According to
her boss, she is the best checker in
the oil fields, and never needs to carry
gun On her hours off, she rides her
horse in the outskirts of the camp.
and is saluted everywhere by the "bad
men,"

ties of tactical movement by the fact
that it was chained to line of rail-
way, whereby alone it could maintain
it's supplies and munitions in the guam
titles required by such a huge con-
centration.
The rate of movement of the pha-
lanx in a forward direction cannot
have exceeded four miles a day, in the
opinion of Russian experts. But its
momentum was irresistible, and it
was this phalanx formation which
forced the crossing of the San river
at Lezachow. 1t was assisted by an
immense flotilla of aeroplanes.
The Germans, in withdrawing many
of their best troops from the French
front, filled the gaps necessarily left
there, with overpowering technical
superiority. Thus where the Germans
find themselves opposed by a thou
sand men and two machine guns, they
post a hundred men and twenty ma,
chine guns, confident that by continu-
ing on the defensive with an extended
use of the technical adjuncts of war
fare they can safely withdraw their
best troops for temporary service else.
where.
Colonel Colomonoff, the best known
newspaper military expert in Petro-
grad, discusses the French position
in his latest article. Pressure from
two sides, he says, is an elementary
principle of coalition warfare. In the
fighting of the present month, the
Russians have drawn upon themselves
enormous masses of first-grade Ger
man troops withdrawn from the west
front Naturally the French have
tried to reply by putting renewed
pressure upon the weakened enemy
facing them But extra rapid firers,,
extra artillery, and the use of gases,
are taking the place of men in the
German lines on the west, and for

Sewerage.
In my last report, | called your at

mend that you ask for an appropria-
| ton sufficient to connect the college
sewers with the city sewers.
Farm.
Our farm now consists of thirty
acres of land, cleared and in good
state of cultivation. This is fenced
into three plots-two of five acres
each, and one of twenty acres. The
first five-acre plot is tile-drained and
is in good condition. We are using
this for our tomato club and for rails
ing vegetables for the dining hall. The
other five-acre plot was sowed in oats
| last fall, and we have just gathered a
very good crop of oats from it. 1t has
been plowed and is now ready to be
planted in corn. The twenty plot,
which is new ground, is planted in
corn. In addition to these plots, we
have a school garden, which is in
! charge of the agricultural department
and the teacher of the practice school.
We find that this garden is adding
very much to the interest, in our prac-
! tice school and is giving our students
practical demonstration of this kind
of work. We expect to develop this
phase of the agricultural work to the
point of highest efficiency.

MACEDONIAN PHALANX
EMPLOYED BY TEUT0NS
FOR FIRST TIME I'M YEARS, THIS
TACTICAL FORMATION is
ADOPTED.
(By Associated PreSS.)

Petrograd. June For the first
time in this war, the Germans in their
latest advance into Russian territory,
have adopted q new tactical formation
for attack. The new formation is lik-
ened by military experts here to the
Macedonian phalanX-with this diff
ference, that it is composed, not of
individuals but of divisions and army
corps.
This phalanx, in the advance from
Cracow, moved along the line of the
Gorlice- Jaslo-RZeszoff railway, and in
cluded ten full army corps, of which
five, forming the main striking head,
were picked troops withdrawn special
ly for the purpose from the French
front.
The phalanx was superabundantly
provided with artillery, including a
large number of heavy batteries. The
latter were also in many cases
brought across Germany from the
French front. For example, twenty
four battalions of the Prussian Guard
corps had with them forty batteries,
half of which were of heavy calibre.
This ancient battle formation new
ly applied in modern war, had natural
ly tremendous driving force, but it
was deprived of any great possibili-

KANSAN A GERMAN BRIDE.

Topeka, Kas., June 10.-A Kansas
girl who detied the gods of war is to-
day a bride in Posen, in Germany,
unless fate played against her at the
eleventh hour. Miss Grace Stelter,
formerly a teacher in the Topeka
High School barely escaped death on
the Lusitania, thanks to the delay in
receiving her passport. She finally
sailed from New York on May II on
the Dutch liner Potsdam for Rotter-
dam, en- route to Germany, where she
was to have joined in wedlock one of
the Kaiser's officers. Her romance is
told throughout Kansas. 1t was while
she was studying at Malburg Univer-
sity, in Germany a few years ago
that she met Fritz Kellerman, who
was later sent as exchange professor
to the University of Kansas. The
dashing young German recently COM
pleted his studies and was on his way
to America and his sweetheart when
the war broke out. He volunteered,
was sent to the front, and has won
the Iron Cross. He is now assigned
to the officers school at Posen, and
it is there that the wedding is set, if
the American girl makes her way
safely through the barricaded frontier

elimination of her long and dangerous
trip is eagerly awaited.

DISCOVERING CORN MEAL

The war in Europe is likely to teach
the Europeans the value of corn meal
as human food. The demand for it
has largely boosted the price Of corn
in The American markets, and it is
likely to boost it still higher. This
is fortunate for the domestic consum-
ers of corn bread and boiled mush, but
there will be compensations. After
the war is over the Europeans who
have eaten corn will continue to eat it,
and the fields of waving corn on the
American farms will le transformed
into gold mines. The yellow kernels
will CLINT with the real luster OF
health. But even though corn meal
is dearer than it was a few weeks ago,
it is still cheaper than wheat flour.
Necessity may teach some Americans
that they can reduce the cost Of liv-
ing, even now, by using more corn
meal. And that will be another form
in which the compensation will mani
fest itself.
