BATTLE RAGING
IN SOUTH EAST
PART OF SERBIA
Bulk of the German and Bulgarian
Armies Are Concentrated
Against the French Ex-
dition.
POSITIONS REPORTED SERIOUS
Rumors that French Have Been
Compelled to Retreat Are
Not Confirmed.
MORE FIGHTING IN MONTENEGRO

LONDON, Dec. S.--With the Ser
blan armies in retreat behind the
Albanian and Montenegrin frontiers.
IL is reported the bulk of the German
and Bulgarian armies is being con-
centrated against the allied armies
holding the southeast corner of Ser
b.a. Heavy fighting has been in pro-
gress there for the last few days.
There is no confirmation of hints
from various sources that the French
troops have been forced definitely 20
abandon the positionse held by them
since the beginning OF the campaign.
The fall of Monastir and the south
ward progress of the German and
bulgarian forces, however, have
placed the northern wing of the
French expedition in a precarious
situation. and withdrawal from the
engle formed by the vardar and
Cerna rivers apparently has begun.
Arrival of Fresh Forces.
Constant arrival OF frsh forces and
war materials at Salonih give evidence
that the allies have no intention of aban-
doning their efforts in this region.
Although the Germans have announced
the capture OF Ikep, Montenegro. the
pursuing Austrian and Bulgarian armies
evidently are confronted with harder
| task on the Montenegro frontier than
elsewhere. The Montenegrins continue
TO offer spirited resistance and to check
the invaders wherever possible by sharp
I counter attacks.
| In Albania the serbians. who had been
compelled TO leave behind quantities or
war materials. appear incapable OF or
ganized resistance Even an orderly re-
treat is made difficult. as the serbians
/ are encumbered with large numbers or
civilians and prisoners. and. according
| TO some reports. have been set upon by
Albanians.
The latest dispatches state that the
French, are bringing heavy guns into
action In the struisl'.|A es4Sess, causing

 To do work of any kind on the day when we are to better our spiritual lives would mean to lose sight of the importance of the day, to descend anew to the bottom of indifference, to retard at the very crhcial moment when the regeneration of forlorn ca reers hangs on hairs breadth, when all depends upon the determination of mans mind However, as the New Year is also to be celebrated as a feast os joy, the things which are necessary to do for the convenience of living such as cooking, heating, lighting and preparing food is permit ted.
 (3) And in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work; it shall be a day of blowing the trumpets unto you" Numbers XXiX. 1.)
 The rams horn trumpet plays an important part in the ceremonies of the New Years day. No token in Judaism is as rich in sentiment as the Shopher Shel Avil (ram's horn trum- pet. We pray to hear the voice of the Great Trumpet when God will ap- pear to redeem us and gather us anew from the four corners of the earth to our mother country-Zion
 The trumpet is the emblem of lib- erty. 5.s.z
 The New Year is also known as the Tom Ha-Din (Day of Atonement) :, and because of our faith in the mer- cy of God, we consider the day fes- tival of joy as we'll as an awful day of being judged by the most Supreme Judge For that reason many delica- cies adorn the Jewish table on the New Years day. We know how our verdict will be-" assured us our sages of yore; it will be sweetened with the mercies of God.
 The meaning of Rosh Ha-Shanah can be best understood when one will apply commercial principle to his own life-when he will take an an- nual invoice of his deeds and endeav- or to find out how much his soul has to its credit.
 Especially this year all the Jews will pray for peace.

 The movement is being made in con- siderably greater strength than was the recent unsuccessful operation. . in the direction of Przasnysz. O,a9
 The discontinuance of operations along the Niemen makes it possible for the Germans to send a large force from that district to re-enforce the men advancing from Korille in the general direction of Mlawa and Przas- nysz. This transfer, as usual, has been effected With lightning-like speed by means of the German rail- roads. The concentrating forces have been further augmented by 1915 re- cruits.

GAS, DYSPEPSIA
 AND INDIGESTION
"Pape's Diapepsin" settles sour gassy stomachs in Five
 minutes-Time It!

You don't want a slow remedy when your stomach is bad-or an uncertain one-or a harmful one-your stomach is too valuable; you mustn't injure it.
 Pape's Diapepsin is noted for it's speed in giving relief; it's harmless ness: it's certain unfailing action in regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs. Its millions of cures in indigestion, dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomach troubles has made it famous the world over.
 Keep this perfect stomach doctor in your home-keep it handy-get large f1fty-cent case from any dealer and then if anyone should eat something which doesn't agree with them; if what they eat lays like lead ferments and sours and forms gas; causes head ache, dizziness and nausea; eructa- tions of acid and undigested food remember as soon as Pape's Diapepsin comes in contact with the stomach all such distress vanishes. Its prompt ness, certainty and ease in overcoming the worst stomach disorders is a reve- lation to those who try it.-Adv

There will be lot of people who may have had but a superficial inter- est in the Boy Scout movement who will take a quite different view of the movement when they hear that the scouts out in Sheridan have assigned themselves the work of scattering sawdust on ice-covered sidewalks and streets. Yet this is but one example of the practical and useful things that have been done by members of this organization in many places. It is characteristic of the motives and aims If the movement
 It is just in little things like this, Ehowing thoughtfulness and considera- sion for others, creating a habitual readiness to put ones self out for the comfort and convenience of the com munity, that the great value of the spirit of service, of neighborliness, of the scout movement lies. It instills into the boys mutual good will and responsibility which goes to the mak- ing of good citizens.-Pittsbur Dis patch.

Try as you will, after an application of Danderine, you cannot find a single trace of dandruff or falling hair and your scalp will not itch, but what will please you most, will be after a few weeks use, when you see new hair, fine and downy at first-yes-but real ly new hair-growing all over the scalp.

 QUIT [EVEE BOARD
APPOINTMENT OF MARTIN AS Dl- RECTOR CALLS FOR NEW
 PRESIDENT.
HAS SERVED FOR IA YEARS
Officials of the Board Say That Elec- ton Measure Would Not Have ln-
 terfered With Issuance of Bonds.
Little Rock

The appointment of Tennis Martin Of Cross County, to succeed o. N. Kill tough, president of the St. Francis Lee Board, means the passing of MT Killough as director on the board and will end his labors as levee board official when his term as president ex- pires.
 MT. Killough, whose home is in Wynne, has been identified with the St. Francis Levee Board for four years and then missed six years, being reelected for another term.
 MT. Killough's term as president of the board will not expire until the sec ond Tuesday in May, when he will re- tire as president and sever his connec- tion with the board. Levee board off, cials predict that Hugh Tomlinson of Butler, Mississippi County, will be elected as president of the board upon the retirement of MT. Killough.
 The only change in the directorate of the board occasioned by Gov. Hays appointments will be the retirement of three directors, the remaining mem- hers of the board being reappointed.
 The new directors will be Tennis Martin, J. J. Hughes, Jr., and s. A. Rolfe. Those who will retire are O. N. Killough, James Russell, who aI- ready has resigned, and Jesse NJ Bush, who is ineligible to reappoint- ment on account of holding another office in the county.
 The officials of the board are sur prised that Gov. Hays should have ve- toed the levee board election bill, as the measure passed both the house and the Senate with good majority and there was no apparent opposition to it. The measure, they argue, might have been passed over his head but he did not place his veto on the bill until the last day of the legislature, and then it was too late to act
 Levee board officials say that Gov Hays veto of the election bill have MO effect upon the issuance of the S465,00 of leveet bonds, authorized by the State Legislature. They also can not see how Gov. Hays can figure out that the election of directors would have endangered or rendered impossf- ble the issuance of the bonds
