WAR SITUATION

The French have turned to the
aggressive in the desperate strug.
gle now in progress northwest of
Verdun and have recaptured a
part of the ground gained by the
Germans in the renewal of their
drive west of the Mouse, Paris
announces.
In a two and a half hour bat
tile. the Crown Princes armies
by delivering massed attacks,
succeeded in gaining a footing
in the French lines at two points
between Bethincourt and Dead
Mans Hill. the dominating
height which is the immediate
object of the present German
drive.
The French launched heavy
counter attacks and by using the
bayonet and hand grenades free
ly were able TO recapture por-
tions of the trenches the Ger
mans had taken.
The Germans made heavy sac
rifces in attempting to cut the
French line and obtain posses
sion of Dead Mans Hill, Paris
advices declare Possession OF
this height has enabled the
French to sweep with their ar.
tillery the territory over which
the Germans were endeavoring
to advance against the fortress.
It is still in French hands, how.
ever, the French War Office an.
nounces, although the German
line has advanced southwark un,
til it now takes in nearly the
whole of Cumieres Wood east of
the height.
Berlin officially denies rumors
that the new German submarine
campaign, under which armed
merchantmen are regarded as
warships, has been abandoned

the Dutch steamer Tubantia, Of
$1,000 tons, from Amsterdam for
South America, in sinking con-
dition off the Netherlands coast.
Whether she struck a mine or
was torpedoed has not yet been
determined. The passengers
and crew escaped in boats.
One of the frequent pauses
which have characterized the
German campaign for Verdun is
again in evidence.
After having made their gains
of Tuesday to the west of the
Meuse in the direction of Dead
Mans Hill, the Crown Princes
forces have not again advanced
to the attack. Speedy resump-
ton of the drive in this sector is
not indicated as probable, as a
slackening in the intensity o.
the bombardment has been re
ported.
Apparently there is al. &C D.
ton on the part of the French
that the next German move may
be made to the southeast of the
fortress, in a fianking operation,
as the French guns have been
extremely active along the
heights of the Mouse overlook
ing the Woevre Plain.

Death of Mrs. H. B. Robinson.

Mrs. II. b. Robinson, of Kansas
City. died at the home Of her
daughter, Mrs. Edwin f. Sparks,
at st. Joseph. Nov. II. 1916, aged
"a years and II days.
Mrs. Robinson had been in fail
ing health for the past year and
il had been deemed advisable to
send her to the home of her
daughter at st. Joseph, where
she could hay" perfect rest and
quiet and perhaps recover her
failing health and strength. but it
was of no avail and soon after
reaching st. Joseph she became
much worse and in spite of all
that loving hearts and hands
could do she grew weaker and af-
ter many long and weary weeks
Of suffering she closed her eyes
to tn" things Of this earth and at
The close Of the day, just as the
lingering twilight had darkencd
The distant hills. her pure spirit
released from it's bonds of clay,
passed into the great beyond.
She was a devoted christian, al
ways active in church work and
was for many years a member of
the Ohio street NJ. f. Church in
this city. At the time of her
death she was a member of the
Beaumont NJ. f. Church at Kan
sas City. For several years she
had been president of the Ladies
Aid society of the Beaumont
church, holding that position at
the time of her death.
A beautiful life is ended, a
noble christian character has
gone to it's reward, but leaving an
Influence that will long be felt
by those who knew and loved her
best.
Her near surviving relatives
are the husband and three daugh-
tiers, Mrs. E. f. Sparks, of st.
Joseph; Mrs. j. D. Tathwell and
Mrs. Roy C. Williams, of Kansas
City; also her father, A. G. Sher-
wood, and a sister, Mrs. E., P.

and one brother, w. H. Sherwood,

Laughing at Yourself.

Laughter is mark Of intclli-
gcnce only when one is able to
laugh at himself, to smile with
Others at his own awkwardncss,
whinS, shortcomings and person
al prruliarities. One needs a Ger
tain amount Of wisdom to know
when he is making himself ride
ulous. He must be big enough
and wise enough to put himself
in another's place and see him
self as others see him. 1t is then
that laughter serves the purpose
Of corrective and means Of self
discipline.
But this requires certain
breadth of vision which not cv-
cryone. possesses. Lincoln had it,
and with all the sadness and trag-
cdy of his life this ability to
laugh at himself kept him sweet
and human, saved his wit from
irony, and cynicism and enabled
him to laugh, not at people, but
with them. . 1t is this trait of
quaint self-ridicule and aloofness
from that petty sense Of dignity
which spurns' self-criticism which
constitutes the true sense Of hum
or. All the great humorists from
.Aristophanes to Mark Twain
have had it. Half the fun of life
must be enjoyed at ones own cx-
pense.
A man may be dead in earnest
in his devotion to some great
cause as was Lincoln, yet keep
his faith in himself and his ideals.
1t is this sense of humor which
preserves balance and saves
man from bigotry and fanaticism.
For want of it among good peo-
pie and reformers many a noble
cause has failed and many
moral ideal has been rendered al
most Observation-Disclosures York
