Dear Miss Grey: / admire
Elizabeth for her stand. She
is not the girl, made of mush,
who filings herself at the
first man who asks, merely
for the sake of a home. or to
show the other girls that she
is desirable. So many mar
riages are brought about in
this way-simply because the
girls are not willing to care
for themselves until they can
find their real mate. The
majority of these marriages
end in the divorce courts or
quarrels and unhappiness
stalk forever in their homes.
Eliza beth says that women
are foolish to have children.
l do not blame her for this
view, for l had the same
opinion at Is after seeing
the misery of large poverty
stricken families, headed by
a shiftless, untrue husband,
and a mother, worn to the
edge. bearing the burden of
t all.
But, Elizabeth, at the age
of rs our minds begin to
broaden. We see life as a
whole, not only individually
as before. Then for the first
time we forget self and real

home for the man we love
and honor, and bringing a
few children into the world,
forming them to the best OF
our abilities into real men
and women is the only real
thing in life to live for.

Withdraw Before Russians.

Petrograd March 27.-The sudden
Development of Russian offensive
on the Dvinsk front, which has taken
the Germans by surprise, has, during
the past week, resulted in consli'
erable advance by the Russians over
two of the most important sectors
at Jacobstadt, which protects the
northern flank, and in the Narocz
lake region, which defends the south-
ern position. At neither point, al
though they brought all available re-
serves into action, and contested the
onslaughts step by step, were the
Germans able to stay the Russian ad'
vance.
Although from the official state
ment it might be inferred that fight
ing OF equal Importance is extending
over the whole area known as the
northern front, stretching from Riga
to the lake district south Of DyinsE,
the main Russian effort + being made
on the southern portion of this line,
where the Russians are proceeding
toward Syentsiany. If pushed to 4
successful conclusion, this movement
would result in the capture of the
important wilma Dvinsk railway
which now serves the Germans or
Grating at Iyinsk.
According to reports from the front
the Germans, recognizing the proba'
bility of such a disaster already
have removed their depots and sup
ply stations to point west Of NoVo
Alexandroysk, and their activity III
this region now consists chiefly in
constructing a line of fortiticatioi'5
considerably in the rear of those they
now occupy. to which they may re-
treat in case of continued recent sue
cesscs.

Washington, d. G.. March 27.
American officials view the
submarine situation as taking
a grave aspect.
The possibility of breaking
off relations with Germany is
again discussed as an eventuali-
ty that may be expected if it is
shown that the Sussex and Eng
lishman We're sunk without
warning.
Consular Agent Whitman at
Boulogne reported to the state
department today that he has
been informed by French Of
ficials there that a bronze piece
resembling a part of torpedo,
has been found on the Sussex.
State department officials
say they have information that
only German submarines were
operating in the vicinity in
which the Sussex was attacked.
1t was stated authoritative
ly today that Germany would
satisfy the United States for the
torpedoing of the Sussex in vi
olation of instructions, if it was
found that the ship was sunk
by a German submarine.
Officials here say that they
are examining all the facts at
hand with an open mind and
can come to no conclusion be-
fore they have additional in
formation. There is an under
current of uneasiness over the
possibility that German subma-
rines have renewed their activ-
ity against passenger carrying
ships in violation of the assur-
ances given the United States.
Consular agents have gather
ed evidence and in the mean
time the situation can only be
described as a waiting one.

DEMOCRATS
LOOKING FOR
HARD BAT TIE
LAFAYETTE AND WADE FORCES
LINING UP - OKLAHOMA CITY
ALMOST EQUALLY DIVIDED, is
REPORT.

Ben Lafayette headquarters stated
to Lee Cruce over the telephone this
morning that two precincts in Okla
homa county outside of Oklahoma
City instructed their delegates to the
convention next Saturday. Each pre-
cinct had four votes and one was
for Lafayette and one was for Wade.
In the city of Oklahoma City 81 dele
gates were instructed for Lafayette
and 5S for Wade. In the city Sc
delegates were not instructed but the
Lafayette people claim from 80 to 40
of the uninstructed delegates.
These figures indicate that neither
Lafayette or Wade will have control
of the county. Oklahoma City has
been in the habit of sending an un-
instructed delegation and then fight
ing among themselves. Lafayette
Headquarters stated that Pontotoc
county would be in line for the Che
cotah man, and that the state as a
whole looked very favorable.
What Carter county will do is not
known yet. The Wade people are
asking for an uninstructed delegation
and the Lafayette people are asking
for instruction. This indicates that
the Lafayette people believe them
selves the stronger, and the indica'
ton on the other side by not asking
for an instructed delegation admits
the ascendency of Lafayette. Both
of the men have some strong work
ers here, and things are getting lively
As far as reports have been received
there are not a sufficient number OF
instructed votes to control the con
vention when it meets next Saturday
and while the Lafayette people claim
the county, they may have a hard
fight to win it before the voting is
over.

Jake L. Hamon fired the first gun

SHERIFF GETS
WHITE SLAYER
AF TER CHASE
TRAILS OLD MAN AND YOUNG
GIRL FROM THIS COUNTY AND
THEY ARE NOW IN JAIL AT
AMARILLO.

About two weeks ago a man by
the name of Bush who resides just
north Of this city, went to the neigh
borhood of the Blue Ribbon school
house, and while the children were at
recess, it is alleged that he enticed
a fifteen-year-Old school girl to run
away with him
When the deed was discovered. the
parents Immediately notified Sheriff
Garrett, who took the trail, with the
result that Bush is now in Jail at
Amarillo, Texas, and deputies have
been dispatched to return him to this
county, where he will have to stand
trial on three counts, all of them most
serious.
The charges which the county at
torney states. will be preferred are
enticing, abduction and white slav-
cry, and if the facts as obtained by
the sheriff are true the chances are
that Bush is in for a hard session.
The girl, Elsie league, is the
daughter of a well known family Of
the Blue Ribbon community, and in
dignation is very high in that neigh
borhood over the actions of Bush.
1t is intimated by the officials that
there are others mixed up in the deal
and the sheriff has 4 man under sur
veillance that he can land at a mo-
ment's notice if his suspicious are
correct. The sheriff has been in
communication with him for several
days, and he believes from the con-
versation and actions of the suspect
ed one that he is mixed up in the
case to a greater or lesser extent.

TRYING to Entrap Villa

Eel Paso, Texas, March 27.-
The American troops are at
tempting today to entrap Villa
by sealing up all trails and
passes in the mountain district
at Ell Valle. Once the outlets
are barred, the cavalry will at
tempt to drive Villa out into the
open.
The American forces have
been permitted the use of the
telegraph wires, which were
cut between MADEIRA and Juar-
eZ, it was announced today by
General Gavira. All communi-
cations, however, are censored
by the Mexican commander at
MADEIRA.
The news that the Ameri-
cans are trying to bottle up Vii
la confirms the reports from the
Casas Grandes district Satur-
day, that Villa had escaped
through the line of Carranza
troops. Villa has scattered his
command in the southward
flight and at one time it was
learned today, led only fifteen
or twenty men.
The army censor at COlum-
bus permitted the information
to pass that Villa had increased
his command at Ell Vale by
forcing thirty-fve young men
and boys to accompany him.
Returning American refu-
gees who know the country, are
unanimous in the expression
that Villa will never be taken.
The nature Of the country and
the fact that Villa is among
people who idolize him, make
!, the bandits capture unlikely,
Nthey declare.

ranged and indicated that she made
a fight for her life Physicians are

dered about 8 o'clock last night.
Miss Cramer returned last night
from Brownsboro, Texas, where she

crime, which came on the heels of
the mysterious murder of Mrs. Hugh
Perry last fall Miss Cramer's suit
case was found within a short dis
tance of her body. 1t had been opened
and the contents scattered.
