Lemberg is about 100 miles from and
almost directly east OF Przemysl, the
scene of some OF the iercest OF the
eastern front fghting early in the
war.
According 10 Petrograd dispatches,
the five Austrian armies along the
front are in full retreat in the reali-
zation that they could not hold their
positions against the artillery at
tacks of the Russians--the greatest
OF the war on the eastern front. Pet
rograd now claims $4,000 Austrian
prisoners and sets the Austrian cas-
ualties OF the present offensive, Eve

The greatest gain for the Russians
is Lutzk. the third corner OF the Vol

this point the Russians drove the

BUILDING PERMITS INCREASE.

AS the Lumber Trade Journal remarks,
it would be easy to give good reasons for
decline in building operations for the
month of October. More expensive material,
labor higher, prediction uncertainty. But
the fact of the matter is that October, so to
speak, kicked over the traces and made one
of the best showings in several months
The official reports of building permits
issued by III of the principal cities of the
United States for October, amount to
$50, 126, 685, a twenty-seven per cent in
crease over the same period last year. It is
also an increase over the preceding month";
when permits aggregated SIP, 735, 764
Two-thirds of the cities showed building
gains. Thus New York shows gain of
q per cent; Boston, Sc per cent; Phi1adel-
phia, So per cent. Dubuque, Ia, leads the
list with 405 per cent increase Chicago
shows a loss of s per cent.
Of the southern cities only Chattanooga
Dallas and Tampa show losses. Increases
for the other southern cities are: Birming-
ham, 8 per cent; Baltimore. 8 per cent:
Fort Worth, 146 per cent; Huntington, 78
per cent; Jacksonville, 1913 per cent; Louis
vile, 18 per cent; Nashville, 1872 per cent
New Orleans, IS per cent; Montgomery,
30 per cent; Norfolk, 81 per cent.

Sailor, gold miner, tramp; sociologist,
lecturer, war correspondent; oyster pirate,
fish patrolman, jail bird-the death of Jack
London, Wednesday, at the age of forty,
terminates life short in years but rich in
experience. Wandering over the face of the
earth, sailing the seas, and taking its blows,
from his earliest childhood he saw only the
seamy side of life; and this explains at
once the strength and the weakness of his
books. The strength came from his init
mate knowledge of sociology and econom-
les; the weakness because Of his lack of
idealis1n, without which no work of art can
endure.
Tolstoy was interested in Just such
problems of sociology, but it was not all
horror to Tolstoy; no matter how great the
anguish or how complete the desolation,
there is always ray of hope; crushed to
EARTH Tolstoy's characters always look up
wards--the difference between the human
and the beast-the difference, too between
a police record and a piece of literature.
His own life unillumined by happiness,
it is not surprising that Jack London could
not describe good people. His women

real; his men-except the brutes-are inn

and "'The Valley of the Moon" the two
novels of the prize fight, the characterize
ton is brought out by the distinguishing
qualities of the bull dog. Note how, in
Before ADAM" the reality breaks down
when the author attempts the transition
from the ape to the human; from the an
thropological to metaphysical
The two books signalized may carry
London's name down to posterity; none OF
the others will The world reads such
books when they are new, very much as il
reads the misery of the newspapers-for
curiosity, but however it suffers, the world

would represent merely the greatest killing
and the most unbearable stencil since time
began; but to the idealist who loves his
fellow-man it typifes unsel6shness, hero
ism and hope-the apotheosis of human
nature, the Gethsemane of character.

If YOU are interested in your babies

health demonstration train.
It is parked on Alcaniz street, between
Chase and Gregory; it is in charge of Dr.
los. Y. Porter, state health officer, and a
corps of assistants; it will be here until
Monday; it is open all day long; it is alb
solutely free.
This is the second year of our health
train. Having already covered almost the
entire state once, it is going over the same
ground again, and next year it will do it
again, and SO on, teaching the science OF
better living. It has something of value
for everybody--no man, woman, or child
over ten years of age, can look at the dit-
ferent displays, or study the various in
scriptions, without learning some impor-
tant thing about themselves.
There is bell in one of the cars that
rings every fifty seconds or SO. All day
long it keeps it up, and would all night, if
the switch wasn't turned off. Each time it
strikes somebody has died of a preventabfe
disease-some cooling baby, some romping
child, some young man or happy matron
has been stricken down because someone
Numbered Because somebody didn't screen
against flies; because there was rip in the
bar and an infected mosquito got in; be-
cause somebody didn't believe in vaccina-

typhoid serum.
No one should miss the opportunity OF
visiting the health car AS the noblest
work of God is man, so the most important
study of man is his own health.
