GERMAN LOSSES ARE HEAVY.
London Reports Successful British
Raids in West.

London, Oct. 15.-No further in
fantry engagements have occurred on
the front of the British attack in
Belgium. In successful raids yester-
day large losses were inflicted on
the Germans. Following is the Of
fetal account of these operations:
"Our positions on the main ridge
south of Broadseinde were heavily
bombarded during the night by the
enemy. No infantry action has taken
place.
'In a successful raid carried out
by us yesterday afternoon southeast
of Monchy-Le PreuX, east county
troops captured thirty-six prisoners
and two machine guns. Two hundred
Germans were killed by the infantry
and seven of the enemy's dugouts
were destroyed with explosives.
"Another successful raid was car
ried out by South midland territor-
ials early last night northeast of
Roeux. A number of the enemy were
killed, his dugouts destroyed and IL
prisoners were taken"

Girls Who Think.

Cynics have had so much to say in
their caustic way about frivolous girls
that visitor from Mars, unaccustom'
ed to our mode of life might suspect
there are no sensible girls on this
planet. But those who go in and out
of the homes of the people a great
deal know there are girls who think
who reason and who act with wise
discrimination.
Suppose there are those of languid
or coquettish temperaments who
spend idle hours in cOnjuring up ro-
mantle day dreams and who engage
in flirtatious follies when they &c
abroad in public They create more
comment because they do more to
lure the eye of admiration that is
easily attracted by physical charms.
The domestic girl may not be less
favored in the endowment Of femi-
nine graces, but being not so vain and
having a profound regard for the
more enduring attributes of human
affection, her faculty of ratiocination
schools her Indifference to infatuation
that is only shallow and transitory.
We have evidences everywhere OF
the girls who think and are doing a
great part of the worlds work. They
have taken upon themselves an ever
increasing share of the professions
where thinking is essential to doing
They take an active interest in the
educational, industrial and economic
problems of the community, State and
nation in which many of the most
practical suggestions are made by
girls and women who think. They
are nobly assuming serious RESPONSE
bilities imposed by war, as they will
also in the mighty tasks that will
come after the war. And the great
est blessing of all which sends ray
of hope through the mists of the
present is that girls who think will
become the dependable mothers o1
the future.-Salt Lake Herald.

LEVER GIVES REINSURANCE.
Proves Report About Buying Cotton
for Allies False.

Lexington. Oct. 13.-So many ru'
mors have come to Representative
Lever from different parts OF the
country to the effect that movement
was under way to concentrate the
purchasing of all cotton for the Al
lies into the hands of the food ad-
ministration; and these rumors we're
so persistent and came from such re-
liable sources, that Congressman
Lever felt. called upon to take the
matter up personally and by letter
with Mr.. Hoover, the national food
administrator. The following letter
from Mr.. Hoover to Representative
Lever should set at rest these reports
and rumors:
"My Dear Mr.. Lever: received
your letter of October 6, with regard
to concentrated purchasing Of cotton
for the Allies by the food admins
tration.
Il agree with you that the Food
Control Act is a food and fuel law,
and that it was never intended to
bring cotton within it's provisions: L
assure you that is not our intention
to handle cotton, and that there is
not under consideration by the food
administration any plan leading to-
wards the elimination of competitive
buying of cotton upon the part of our
Allies.
eve are at present considering the
PRONUNCIATION of certain rules and
regulations with regard to cotton
seed and its products, and this may
have given rise to the rumor of which
you speak in your letter.
'Trusting that this satisfactorily
answers your inquiry, am,
Faithfully yours,
HERBERT HOOVER
Mr.. Lever expresses the opinion
that these rumors have their source
in desire to frighten the farmer in
to parting with his cotton at figure
below it's real value as fixed by the
demand for it. He says:
There is no doubt but that there
is a world shortage in cotton, neither
Is there any doubt that the pro-
duction even next year can be very
materially increased in the face of a
shortage both in labor and fertilizers.
The food control bill was never in
tended to apply to cotton. 1t is a
food and fuel measure pure and sim
pie. 1t is true that at one stage
in it's passage in the Senate cotton
was included in the bill but the ef-
forts of the Southern Senators took
it out. The food administration un-
der the law, has absolutely no power
to control cotton, and I am glad to
see that no effort is to be made to
concentrate the purchasing of cotton
for the Allies in the hands of the
food administration. The farmers
should not be frightened into turn
ing loose their cotton until they are
ready to sell it by the false rumors
that must originate in the brains of
those who would like to buy it at a
lower figure

HEAVY AIRCRAFT COMING.
DAY of Thrilling Duels About Passed
For Powerful Motor.

Washington, Oct. 20.-The day o.
thrilling air duels between individ
ual aviators over fighting lines il
Europe seems to be passing. Oftlcia
advices received have showed increas
ing use of heavier machines anC
greater armament.
There are indications that ar
amendment already has been neces
sary in the programme for creating
the huge air fleets provided for by
congress. While there will be nc
lack of small fighting planes, it is
probable that stress is being laid on
the bombing craft and upon increas-
ing the speed of these heavier ma
chimes and giving them adequate al
mament.
Already the engineers who design
ed the Liberty motor are at work on
plans for even more powerful en-
gines, it is understood. At the same
time the Liberty motor now is pro-
duced at a rate that assures suffi-
cient supply when American flyers
are assembled in force over the fight
ing lines.
There have been rumors of great
German aircraft soon to make their
appearance and officials, believe that
the Germans are impressed with the
desirability of substituting heavier
machines in which fighting power
takes the place of high speed. The
production of training machines, it is
understood, is the only element of
the aircraft programme which is lag
ging behind schedule.
New supply sources for the train
ing machine are shortly to begin de-
liveries. The first of the year prob
ably will see the entire programme
abreast or ahead of it's schedule.
There has been little delay in the
training of aviators and many already
have been sent abroad after prelim-
mary instructions to get proper fly
ing experience.
