was one of the best in recent years
Most of the AZ churches in the body

tor, Rev. H. E. Gabby, called the

the various churches showed a good
years work and a healthy condition
of affairs.
The election of new officers took
place at IL O'Clock Tuesday and re-
suited in the following being chosen
without opposition:
Chas. M. Meacham, Moderator.
Rev! w. R. Goodman, Clerk.

Altogether the meeting was most
successful and pleasant one. The

1900 Prisoners Captured and
Number of Guns Taken at
Fokshani.
ALLIES POISED FLANDERS
Two Russian Regiments Trai-
tOrOusly Retreat, Forcing
Main Force Back.

Aside from the Russian theatre, the
hostilities on all the fronts are virtual
ly at standstill. Bombardments at
some points attaining fairly violent
proportions and at other places small
infantry maneuvers have occurred on
the front in Flanders, but as yet the
operations have not taken on the as
pect Of contemplated resumption Of
the big allied drive which the bad
weather of last week brought to an
abrupt end.
The Canadians operating against
Lens have again made thrust of sue
cessful nature into the environs of the
already encompassed coal center
which apparently cannot long with
stand capitulation. By the use of curtain
fires the Germans are endeavoring to
keep back encroachments into their
terrain here, but even with this fire
against them the intrepid Canadians
continue almost daily to extend their
saps and now are firmly established
on the south and west outskirts of the
German town.
The aspirations Of the German
crown prince to win territory against
Gen. Petain's forces on the southern
front in France has not as yet been
achieved. In the Champagne region
1.-THE French have penetrated German
lines at three places and on the fam
lous Avocourt wood Hill 304 sector of
THE Verdun front have put down with
a loss German attempt at an attack.
Having been enabled, mainly
through the dissaffection in the Rus
sian army, to drive the Russians out
of the greater part of Galicia and Blu
kowina, the Austro-Germans now
have begun in southern Moldavia a
maneuver, the success of which would
be of vast importance against the Rus
so-Rumanian line, barring the way to
Bessarabia. At Fokshani the enemy
has struck swift blow at the defend
ers of the line and forced them across
the river Tyrladesus, thereby threat
ening the crossing of the lower Sc
reth and the road to Galatz, one of the
chief Rumanian towns on the Danube
still remaining in Rumanian hands.
A number of guns of various calibers
and ], 300 prisoners were taken by
the invaders.
To the north along the Bystritza
river in Rumania, two Russian regi-
ments turned traitor and fled, COM
pelling the main force OF the Russians
to retire again several miles. Near
Kimpolung, in south Bukowina, the
Russians gave battle on the heights of
Molit but were defeated and forced TO
cede territcry. At several points
further north the Russians are at griI S
with the enemy and apparently are
more than holding their own on sew
eral sectors, having driven back the
Teutonic advanced posts.
Taking advantage of the retreat Of
the Russians west of Zbrocz river,
where the disaffection in Gen. Bru-
silloff's army made it virtually a rout,
the Austrians and Germans are har-
vesting hastily the crops left behind.
Artillery duels continue to be the
chief factors of warfare in both the
Austro-Italian and Macedonia thea
tres.
Severe fighting is taking place in
southeast German East Africa. AS yet
it has reached no definite result al-
though the British have gained some
ground

George Washington
And Brother Jonathan

When General Washington, after be-
ing appointed commander of the army
of the Revolutionary war, came to
Massachusetts to organize his men and
make preparations for the defense Of
his country he found the ammunition
very scarce. Without it he found it
difficult to face the foe.
His excellency Jonathan Trumbul1,
the elder, was then governor of the
state of Connecticut, and Washington
placed great stress on his aid and
judgment. Seeing the fix his people
were in, he said, "We must consult
Brother Jonathan on the subject"
Suiting the action to the word, Wash.
ington consulted Trumbull and sue
ceeded The governor supplied many
of the wants of the army.
By and by I'VE must consult Brother
Jonathan became a familiar phrase,
and eventually the term Brother JON
athan" was applied to the United
States. Since then it has been chang
ed to Uncle Sam,' as John Bull" Is
still applied to England.

Things Worth Knowing

To clean saucepans thoroughly after
cooking oatmeal fill them with boiling
water, empty and then fill with cold
water, and the oatmeal will almost falI
away from the sides of the saucepan.
When shaking heavy rugs hold by
the sides. If possible, spread them
wrong side up on the ground and beat
to dislodge the dirt, then brush off and
hang up to air.
Use crabapple for mincemeat. Core
and chop without peeling. They ara
much richer than common apples.
Always flour suet before choppfng.
as this keeps the particles from stick
ing together.
Before hanging out clothes in cold
weather wipe your hands dry and rub
them well with cornmeal. They won't
suffer from the cold.
Make oilcloth aprons with bibs for
washing and keep your clothes dry.
A plate glass top for a round dining
table is an economy, not luxury. In
stead of tablecloths to be purchased,
laundered constantly and replenished,
a handsome linen cloth placed under
the glass and luncheon set used ON
top are sufficient.
To launder a white waist quickly
wash in warm water and soap and
rinse well. Dissolve one teaspoonfui
of borax in a small quantity of hot
water, wiring the waist out of this, roll
in cloth for a few minutes and iron
on the wrong side. 1t will be crisp
and nice as when new.

SOME FACTS
ABOUT CUBA

mother country.
Sugar and tobacco are the two
greatest products of Cuba.
The railway station in Havana cost
$3,O0O,0OO and is one of the finest in
the world.
The area of Cuba is approximately
$4,000 square miles, or about the size
of the State of Pennsylvania.
Havana, the capital Of Cuba, lies
100 miles south of Philadelphia, and
400 miles farther west than New
York.
Within sight of the shores of Cuba
passes all of the Atlantic shipping of
the Gulf States, Mexico and Central
America.
Cuba lies wholly within the tropics.
A line drawn south from Pittsburg
would pass directly through the is
land.
When Columbus discovered the is
land of Cuba he gave it the name
Juana, in honor Of Prince Juan, son
of Ferdinand and Isabella.
Under the Spanish regime the death
rate of Havana was something like
thirty to the thousand, while today
the death rate is lower than that of
New York.
The forest of valuable woods that
remain standing in Cuba are estimat-
ed to exceed in area thirteen million
acres.
The coast of Cuba, approximately
1900 miles in length, has more excel
lent, deepwater, landlocked harbors
than any other country of its size in
the world.
There are no poisonous snakes or
reptiles in Cuba and no insects whose
bite OF sting can inflict greater injury
than does the common wasp of the
United States.
Not only are all of the fruits and
vegetables Of the tropics grown in Gu
ba, but the soil is such that many Of
the products of the temperate zone
are grown as well.
One of the great natural attractions
for the tourist in Cuba is the famous
Caves of Bellemar, near Matanzas,
discovered only a few years ago,
through accident by Chinese labor
er.
There are more than two million
people On the island of Cuba, which
gives a density of forty-five to the
square mile, a greater population ac-
cording to the territory than that of
any of the other Latfn-American re-
publics.
Standing out alone as the highest
institution of learning in Cuba, and
distinctive as an educational institu-
ton in Latin America, is the Univer-
sity of Havana, which was founded
in 1928 as pontifcal and royal uni
versity.
