GREEK TROOPS
FIGHT REBELS
Struggle for Katerina Be-
gins - Cabinet Rejects
New Allied Demand

London, Nov. 5.-"The Greek army
arrived outside Katerina and an en-
gagement with the Venizelists began
tonight" says a dispatch to "The Sun
day Observer" from Athens, dated Fri
day.
Vice-Admiral du Fournet, commander
Of the Entente feet in the Mediter-
ranean, has demanded that the Greek
government consent to the use of a
Greek light fotilla carrying the French
flag and French crews as a protection
against submarines, says Reuter- dis
patch from Athens.
The Greek Cabinet held meeting
to-day under the presidency Of King
Constantine, the dispatch adds, and de-
cided that the vice-admiral's demand
was unacceptable because consent to it
would be equivalent to g departure
from neutrality.
King Constantine had sent reinforce
ments from Larissa to the garrison
from Katerina, which was evacuated
before the rebel advance. This force
had orders to demand that the insuf-
gents surrender the town or face an
attack.

MESSENGER BOYS WIN;
MUST RETURN TO WORK
Demands Granted, Lads Strike
Holiday Is Over

The thousand striking messenger
boys who for the last few days have
been doing their light reading unin-
terrupted by requests by the Western
Union company, have been doomed
once more to have their perusal Of
the career Of Young Wild West and
other patron saints interrupted when
ever the company sees fit.
Yesterday, after an honest-to-good-
ness labor conference, with real dele
gates from the strikers and genuine
state mediators, the juvenile strikers
reluctantly admitted that they saw no
other way out of the strike except By
a return 70 work. The terms which
the strikers wrested from the CORPORA
tion follow:
Bows who formerly received less
than two cents a message will now get
two cents. Those who received this
paw formerly will be raised to two and
half cents. Errand service, formerly
rewarded by a dime, will now draw
Is cents. Each messenger who works
ten hours a day will have an hour of
for lunch, and boys employed at night
will get day off every second week.

incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease

local treatment, pronounced it in

at the A. o. U. w. hall clearly dem
onstrated the fact that young lad
les. as we'll as the gentlemen, could
manage and promote a dance. Forty

evening and the music furnished by

dancers and walkers" as might be
said. The affair was given by the
N. 0. girls and their friends and
the staging was somewhat novel for
Abilene so far this year They did
not compel the ladies to go after
their dates" but some of them did
have to furnish the cab. However,
they did fill their gentlemen friends
program and the dilemma of some
was great. Fruit punch was served
between dances. The only thing to
mar the occasion was the failure of
the electric lights at eleven o'clock
but the orchestra played on and the
dancers whirled on in the dark.
