Rome, Nov. 4.-The gravity of the
situation and the fusion of all parties
into one national entity determined at
all odds to drive the enemy from the
mother soil, apparently according to
high officials, has reached even the
vatican, where it is realized it is ad-
visable to abandon any efforts towards
peace, for the present at least
The leaders in the Catholic party
have made declarations of their sup,
port to united Italy in the supreme
struggle, and it is said in official
quarters that the vatican has been in
formed that for the moment any at
titude which might be considered to
run counter to the national aspirations
would be most unwelcome.

the alarm. Other patrols advanced
and found all the trenches empty and

tunnels confirmed the departure of
the Germans
II was evident that the German

warning of the order to retire, as half

ASK SOLDIERS
Home TO LIST
With THE &c.

All soldiers. and sailors who are
home for their Christmas vacation,
or who expect to have a leave Of
absence before sailing for France, are
urged, for their own welfare, to call
upon their local Red Cross chapter
and see that their names are on the
card index. -.
Under a card index system the Red
Cross chapters OF North Dakota aim
TO have a complete directory Of all
the men from this state in the serv-
ice Of Uncle Sam. The cards show
the name, address. and nearest rela-
tiVes OF the registrant, and they are
for the use Of the home service de-
partment. One branch OF this work
Is the CARING for the dependents of
the registrant. This clause is not
expected to affect many Fargo men,
but the other department is of more
Importance to them. II the registrant
Is wounded at the front, the cards
will enable the Red Cross to get into
instant touch with the members of
his family and give them all the
information regarding him that is
available. so that they may send
him comforts of all kinds. If he
should be taken prisoner the same
card would be the medium of letting
his relatives know where he is, and
whether or not he Is wounded.
1t is also important that he send
to his family his serial number as
soon as 1t Is given him, and this
should promptly be given to the local
Red Cross chapter
All Fargo men should call at the
office Of the local secretary, +. c.
Anderson Of the Hodgson Realty
company, and men from other towns
in the state should communicate with
their local chapters.
