PUBLIC LIBRARY TO OPEN
ON SUNDAY AFTERNOONS

The Oakes Public Library Board in
its regular meeting last Thursday
evening decided to open the library
Sunday afternoons to the general
public, beginning with the first s>
day in November, from 2:3O to s.
No books will be issued nor can any
be returned on these Sunday after
Moons. but patrons may come and read
the books on the shelves, the news
papers, magazines, etc. Some one will
be in charge to see that quiet is main
tained. 1t is believed that this will
be welcomed by many who would be
glad to avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity of spending an hour or two
during the winter months, reading in
the library. The board has made the
library room very comfortable.
The members of the Library Board
have offered their services as attend
ants for the Sunday afternoon reading
periodic see that the room is open
by 2:30 and see that quiet is main
tanned one attendant per Sunday. II
was thought there might be others
who would be willing to offer their
services for this, that the burden
might not fall altogether upon the
Library Board. Those willing to re-
spond should notify Mrs. ]. w. Bush,
Chairman of the Library Committee,
or Mr.. G. E. ,Blume, President of the
Library Board, who will see to it that
such names will be placed upon the
available list

happened. She called Mrs. w. H.

away before the, doctor could arrive.

ty, Mimi, in 1867.

London, Oct. 9.-Through squalls OF
rain and under low hanging clouds.
Field Marshall Haig is blazing the
way with his artillery for another raid
into the Germain line in Flanders.
Since the great advance Of the mid.
week the British infantry has kept to
the trenches and shell craters, except
where forays were called for to re-
align the new front or counter attacks
were necessary to hold back weak and
sporadic German attempts to recap
ture lost terrain here and there.
But the big guns never ceased their
activity, and day in and day out great
masses Of steel have been blasting the
German points which are mapped out
for capture when the new drive is
launched. The Germans are answer.

Particularly heavy is the lombard.

Langemarck to Zonnebeke, and espe.

been pushed in, almost within striking

When the new offensive will be

them for capture, or the process OF

streaks of dawn may see its commence

The army Of the German crown
prince in Champagne again has en-
deavored to dent the French line. but
again has failed with considerable
losses in men killed or made prisoners.
The heavy artillery duel continues
along the eastern bank Of the Meuse
river in the Verdun sector.
Comparative Quiet in Russia.
Comparative quiet prevails on the
northern portion Of the front in Rus.
sia, and along this line to Roumania.
In Roumania, however, the Russians in
an attack northwest of the town of
Sereth captured Tetonic Allied posi-
tion, made prisoner 762 men and took
seven machine guns.
Daily the Italians and Austrians are
engaged in battles for supremacy on
the slopes of Monte San Gabrielle in
the Gorilla sector. In the latest fight
the Italians captured many positions
on the northern slopes and also took
prisoners.

DR.. Wells revival meetings which
have been held in the Presbyterian
church for the past few weeks came
to a close Sunday evening. Never in
the history of this community has
such an interest been aroused spirit

a result the local church has easily
trebled it's membership which indeed
is gratifying to the older members as
