renting a garage about block away

he put on his working clothes and went
over to do some tinkering on his ma

and he was sadly in need Of shave.
So he hurried home to clean up. Ana
on the sidewalk, few doors from
his home, he met man whom ne
hadn't seen for 20 years.
"Why, isn't this Henry Brown?'
asked the other man.
'rYes, it Isl answered our friend.

Ito see you. What are you doing in

"Just staying with friends for few
days." answered the old friend, looking
our hero over with puzzled express

of course, you do
"Yes, I've lived here for 20 years."

unconscious of his appearance, and
wondered at the plying and puzzled

"Oh, cheer up" said Jones, clapping
him on the shoulder. '"Things are new

latin A PURP0sELESS STUDY
Excuse That 1t Gives Mental Disclp-

II one does not study things because

do not say, mark you, useful pur-
pose, but purpose-a valid purpose,
d genuine purpose, not a make-be-

Mental discipline is not valid or

Meanwhile the number Of purposes, Of
genuine, valid purposes, is simply in
finite. Learning to read Virgil is, Of
course, just as valid q purpose as
learning to bake a pumpkin pie. The
test Is, however, not, did the student

symphony? will someone eat the pie?
And because people rarely care to
read Virgil, because almost none Of
THE thousands who study Latin ever
can or do read Virgil, therefore, in

Latin has no purpose and cannot be
defended as mental discipline:-Abra-

they would be fed when they arrived
on the British lines. A total Of
nearly four thousand prisoners was
captured, including regimental COM
mander captured in dugout with q
major, adjutant and number of
other officers.
LONDON, Nov. 14,--What may be-
come known as the battle Of the
Ancre opened with the British forces
striking against the German forces in
the region of the Ancre river. There
had been no serious fighting in this
sector since the opening of the Brit
ish push on the first Of July, when
the British line of attack extended
five miles north of the Ancre to
Gommecourt. But after few days,
no progress being made in this re-
gion, efforts were henceforth con-
centrated farther to the SOUTH
Frequent trench raids during the
recent weeks indicated that some
new move was contemplated, but the
bad weather, which has prevented
any serious operations since October
21, when the last big attack was
launched on the Schwaben-Le Sars
sector, delayed the blow.
Apparently the Germans were
taken by surprise and they offered
no serious resistance except before
Serre. The attack was carried out
..aiong front extending five miles on
both sides of the Ancre against po-
sitions which the Germans had held
for two years and which they con-
sidered impregnable.
1t resulted in the capture of Beau
mont-Hamel and st. Pierre Divion,
with gain of new ground of q maxi
mum depth of one mile and a large
number of prisoners, between 5000
and 1000 already having been re-
ported. The positions north of the
river are described as OF extraordi-
nary strength. Beaumont-Hamel equal

curity of its dugouts The lighting
continues north of Serres. This
latest British advance, in conjunc
tion with that of the Schwaben-Le
Sars line, threatens the envelop
ment of Miramont. on the Albert
Arras railroad.
The stubborn defense made by the
Germans in positions near the River
Ancre which were attacked by the
British caused the defenders to suffer
important losses. The British cap
