HOME GUARDS
HEAR SERMON
Attend Presbyterian Church in
a BOdy-Or. Burnett
Speaks.

TIE three local companies Of
home guards attended the Presby-
terrain church Sunday evening and
listened 20 an excellent sermon by
the pastor. Rev. DIR. j. A. Burnett.
VINO took for his text the words AS
his part is that goeth down 20 the
battle. so shall his part be that
tarrieth ~ the stuff. they shall part
alike"
In the course Of his remarks DR..
Burnett said.
1T was a time when immediate
action was demanded; the families
Of the soldiers had been taken cap
tive BY the enemy. and if these were
10 be restored there was no time 10
parley. but they must pursue.
David take the 500 men with
him and starts after the foe. Co
ing a little distance all the unnec-
essary baggage Is laid aside and 200
men. too faint 10 pursue, are left
90 guard it. These were not towards
Sinking duty. but men unfit for
quiciS action in this exceptional ma
neuver.
''The campaign is successful and
the victorious army brings back the
captives and also much spoil The
question arises as 20 the division Of
the booty Some are opposed to
those who had been left behind
sharing in the spoils. but David
SAYS these men have done honor
able service, they have been faith
fuI in their places. and they shall
share equally with the others
This is the spirit Of all true ser
vice: rewards are based upon fidel-
lty to duty in the places which God
allots US
"These men were OF willing spir-
IL but were kept back from the
sterner service Of war by circum-
stances which they could not con-
troll
Though out Of action they were
deeply interested in the issues of
the campaign. Not every man is
able to meet the stern requirements
OF the battle field. but every loyal
heart thrills with the achievements
and successes Of those who stand in
the high places and do valiant
deeds We follow with intensest in
terest each movement Of our men:
their victories are ours. their hard
ships and trials are a part Of the
burden we bear We Join in the
anthems OF victory with the same
enthusiasm as those who win them.
Fidelity in the camp means con-
fdence on the battle field. Here
were 200 men following the 400
with their prayers and preparing
for their return. This conviction
was an inspiration 20 those who
fought. Arthur Guy Empy in a re-
cent address declared that victory in
war was 40 per cent in he fight
ing and 60 per cent in the loyalty
and enthusiasm and help OF those
who We're at home. one OF the ten
derest songs that has come out Of
this great war is. Keep the Home
Fires Eurning
There is also the recognition of
a divine hand moving i'm the affairs
of the strife. and this banishes sell
hshness from the heart. David
said. 'Ye shall not do so with that
which Jehovah hath given as. who
hath preserved and delivered us
Rewards are not for the great
alone but for those also who serve
in less conspicuous places II is a
great thing TO be privileged 10 do
even garrison duty. and the man
Who does his work as he can will
have a part I'm the final triumph"

THE WAR IN BRIEF

British troops have made additional progress north and south of the Ancre. but the statement from London war office gives no detai of the latest ad- vances. Northwest of Puisieux-Au- Mont, north Of the Ancre and near War lencourt, south of the Ancre and to- ward Bapaume were the scenes cf the latest gains
 The Germans apparently are prepar- ing to make a stand on their present line south of Bapaume, as the British statements reports the repulse Of at tacks against British advanced posi- tions near Gaeudecourt and Lgny- Thilloy. A staff correspondent of the Associated Press with the British arm ies reports that the Germans now are making a definite stand on line run niHg from Ess2.ts tprp0gh Achtet.l.a- petit to southeast Of Rapaume
 In the fighting il the Ancre region the British On Friday captured 12S prisoners, three machine guns and four trench mortars. Berlin reports the re- pulse of loca, attacks near Southoz and in the Ancre region with the cap ture of prisoners. Elsewhere only aids and artillery duels have taken place.
 On the eastern front there has been marked activity in Galcia and in Ra- mania. On the east bank of the Naray- uvka river in Galicia German stormi1g detachments blew up Russian posi- tions and took ITO prisoners.
 In the Va Putna, Berlin records the Russians made frultless attacks against Austro-German positions on the heights ncrth of the valley. Petrograd says the fighting continues north of the JacobinLKimpolung high road Ru- manian detachments were forced to withdraw, Petrograd says, from a height north of the Zayal
 Turkish forces in their retreat .rom Kut- Fl -Amara on Tuesday had reached Aziziyah forty miles southwest of Bagdad. and g miles northwest of Kut. The British pursuit continues, London announces, and since February 23 the troops under General Maude have taken 4,300 prisoners and much booty. including guns and machine guns.
 For the second day since the begin ming of the German unrestricted cub marine campaign no reports of any vessels having been sunk were issued cn Friday. The final period of grace fo sailing ships in the Atlantic ocean expired on March 1, says an anno1-lce- ment by tbe German admiralty which adds that from March 2 no special warnings will be given any boats by submarines.

PRICE OF FOOD FORGED
 DOWN IN NEW YORK

New York March 2.-Abnormal de. creases in the prices of such staple food commodities as potatoes and onions since last Monday morning as compared with the prices of February 22. have saved the people of New York City approximately s5,oOOOOO, Joseph J. Hartigan, commissioner Of weights and measures, estimated in a statement issued tonight.
 Credit is due to the common sense of the people who established an au- tomatic boycott by refusing to buy potatoes or onions, thus applying the inexorable law of supply and de- mand." he said.
 The 2O.000 pounds of smelts brought here from Seattle by the committee and placed on the market at six cents a pound were sold in few hours to- day

 TO Senator Hitchcock and Senator Lodge, the ranking democratic and republican committeeman, fell tho leadership. Senator La Toilette, about whose attitude there has been some uneasiness, announced that he would talk at length on the bill but had no intention of filibustering.
 As the debate proceeded into the night there were many predictions that 1t would be well towards morning before vote could be reached. The dramatic features of the situation were heiahtened by crowded galleries and the attendance of several cabinet members and many representatives on the floor as spectators. Among those in the diplomatic gallery early in the night was Sir Cecil Spring Rice the British ambassador. The senate bill, in addition to au- thorizing the arming of merchant ships. would extend the authority re- quested by the president for use of other instrumentalities" in protect ing American rights. That feature was omitted from the houae bill, which also contained a proposition ob- iectionable to the president
 the insurance by the war risk :. of vessels laden with munitions. More than one senator declared pa ssage of the senate bill would mean war sooner or later, but almost with cut exception they added that they were ready to accept war on those terms. A few insisted that it would not mean war None expressed any other expectation than that il would be passed and then be accepted tomor- row by the house

Washington, March 2.-President Wilson's bill to authorize d policy of armed neutrality was pressed toward rassage Tn the senate tonight with q debate running the whole scale of the nations foreign relations
 The measure which the white house has announced it desires as sub stitute for the less sweeping bill passed by the house last night, devel- oped little evidence of determined op- position.

GUNS FOR ARMING
 SHIPS ASSEMBLED
PUTTING THE WEAPONS ABoARL CAN BEGIN IMMEDIATELY ON
 ORDERS OF PRESIDENT.
The American Line Has Made a Blanket Application to Arm All It's ships-Machine Guns And Big Rifles Will Be Installed.

Washington, March With guns mounts and ammunition for arming American merchant ships already as- sembled at navy yards. putting the weapons aboard can begin immediate. ly on orders from President Wilson Navy officials estimate that it would take from three to five days pership to equip vessels previously surveyed for possible use as naval auxiliaries A longer time will be required for oth. CTS.
 Every importan> atlantic coast navy yard is ready to undertake work on ships. Aside from a blanket ap' plication from the American Line GOV ering all it's ships, the navy depart ment now has only requests for guns for few individual vessels Ships first scheduled 10 sail would be the first armed.
 Under the senate bill a full com plement of guns may be placed on board each ship. The big liners would carry six G-inch guns each for war purposes and probably would carry two or more for defense against sub marines. Most of them have deck emplacements already in and struc- tural work would be necessary only to fit proper magazines to insure against tire and explosion.
 The question of providing gun crews will be taken up for each ship separately, according to present plans .If former navy sunners with good records as marksmen are available they will e employed. It not enlisted crews from the navy yards or reserve warships will be assigned 10 man the guns The department is anxious to avoid as far as possible weakening the strength of it's fighting line in gunners.
 It is possible that machine guns will be aboard mercnant ships as well as the big rifles Reports from Great Britain say that machine gun fire against submarines has been found exceedingly effective.
 Officers here believe the machine guns carried by swift aeroplanes are proving the most effective weapons against Zeppelins as -Teu. A new type of ammunition has been developed
 Bullets carrying chemicals that will set on fire a gas bag when punctured | are followed at intervals by tracer 1 shots showing a string of sparks like
