Books dealing with games are both
varied and numerous, but this volume
differs from the usual game book in
several respects. Only old fas toned
games are given and when music is
associated with the game the music is
given, also the words in full. Explicit
directions are given for playing the
games and many charming illustra-
lions in black and white and in col
ors add to its usefulness.

Many Applicants for II Licenses.
Rutland News.)


There are "a people in Barre who
have applied for the II liquor selling
privileges available commencing May
!. There are probably more than
this number who would apply, if they
supposed that they had any ghostlv
chance OF getting a license. The num-
Der OF applicants is always the larg
est in any city which has just voted
for license, and the number diminishes
from year to year if the community
continues to favor license and more
particularly if the license boards are
unchanged and those to whom license
are granted live up to the law. This
has been proved in Bennington per-
haps more conclusively than any other
Vermont town, because it was the
policy Of the assistant county judges
to reappoint year after year the same
commissioners and likewise it was the
policy of the commissioners to reap
point the same licensees.

ATHENS May 29.-Rulgarian
troops. equipped with German artiI-
lery and lei by German officers. are
violently bombarding the allies DO
sitions on the Demir Hissar front
in Macedonia.
The Bulgarians have penetrated
Greek territory for 10 miles and at
some points where the Greek troops
tried TO stem the invasion they were
vigorously shelled by the BuIgarians.
All the Indications are that the
long expected drive against the al
lies in Macedonia is finally under
way and that the central powers
have decided upon an offensive cam
paign in practically all the theaters
of war
Strong protests have been made
to the Belgian government by the
Greek government on the intrusion
of the Bulgarian soldiers on Greek
soil On Sunday mass meetings
were held here and in Saloniki when
resolutions were adopted protesting
against invasion of Greece. There
were cries of: Down with the Bull
garians"
There are approximately 10000
BuIgarians and Germans on Greek
soil. The point where the invasion
took place is far to the east of
where it was expected that the cen
trail powers would make their at
tack. 1t was evidently part of the
German strategy to take the allies
upon the flank.
Demir Hissar is on the railway
line which runs through the new
Greek territory acquired in the
Balkan wars. 1t is about As miles
northeast of Saloniki
Pro-ally newspapers declare that
the Bulgarian offensive is aimed at
Greece as well as the allies, and put
the question::
will the Bulgarian flag supplant
the Greek flag in Macedonia ?"
There are military critics who
think that the Bulgarians will try to
drive through. to Kavala, on the
Aegean coast.
Three Greek forts and several
block houses were captured by the
Bulgarians. but the Greeks are i'm
possession of Sores, an important
city in the Struma valley. Just south
of Demir Hissar.
