BELIEVE PEACE
 WILL BE RESULT
 FROM ARM|S1ICE
Opinion in Petrograd Is That Permanent Peace
 With Teutons Is On.

London, Dec. 1.-The predominant facts as regards the Russian situa- tion at the moment is the signing of an armistice, which is announced of fcially at the capitals of all the coun- tries concerned According to special dispatches from Petrograd, everyone there believes that permanent peace between Russia and the central pow CTS will result. Correspondents in general treat as negligible the under taking of Germany and her allies not to withdraw troops from the eastern front. A Petrograd dispatch to the Times says large masses of Germans have been removed and that probably the German command has transferred all it purposes to employ elsewhere, so that it's plans are not likely to be deranged seriously.
 The reported suicide during the ar mistice regulations at Brest-Litovsk of the Russian General Skalons ap- parently has made considerable i'm pression at Petrograd, although the Russian national emissaries are silent in regard to it.
 The correspondent seeks to show there is nothing to prove that he com- mitted suicide, which is most improb- able, and insinuates that he was mur- dered.
 There is no confirmation of last weeks Bolsheviki announcement re- garding the arrest of General Kale- dimes. The situation in southern Rus sia continues to be obscure, and news is fragmentary and contradictory.
 The official denial of the story that former Emperor Nicholas had es- caped from Tobolsk, received by the port was false, hold the field for the present against various rumors re- garding the Romanoffs, who are be- coming objects of increasing interest to a section of the population of Pe- trograd.
 A strike at Moscow began yester- day.

WAR SUMMARY

The period of virtual inactivity continues in France and Belgium, ex- cept for reciprocal bombardments in various sectors and here and there small operations by reconnoitering parties. Only on the northern 1tal- ian front have there been sanguinary encounters between the opposing in- fantry, and in these the Austro- German forces have met with defeat in attempts to pierce the Italian front and reach the Venetian plain. Caprialle hill, at the.he of the San Lorenzo valley, where last week the Italians were forced to give ground, has been attacked by the enemy, but the operations brought him nothing but heavy casualties as he was driven back to his former lines.
 German naval forces again have made a foray into the North sea and surprised a convoy of merchantmen, sinking one British and five neutral vessels and four mine sweepers. Of two British destroyers escorting the vessels, one was sunk and the other damaged. The German forces, so far as is known, consisted of four destroy CTS. Whether any of their vessels were hit, during the fighting with the British destroyers has not been made known. That German war craft re- gently have been operating near the English coast was made known off ciallv in the house of commons today by the financial secretary of the ad- n1iralty, who announced that on De- cember 12 two neutral merchantmen and a traWler were sunk off the mouth of the Tyne river.
 The official text of the armistice between the central powers and Rus sia confirms the unofficial report that it is to ruin from December IT to January IA. The compact embraces all the fighting front where Prussian forces have been engaged and also extends to naval operations.

is not the right way to go out and get 1t. Of course, some people have be- come champion pool players, but what kind of success is that? Is that any excuse for loafing around pool halls and wasting time? Everybody can make his time worth money, and ii time Is money, why waste it in these pool halls? The man who will succeed is the man who can make ad- vantageous use of his spare time. This does not mean that we should not have pleasure, but we should all endeavor to make our leisure as prof itable and useful as we can. We can improve our minds by reading; im- prove our bodies by physical exercise; divert ourselves by clean, wholesome sports or games, or doing something that is useful, but which we do not consider work.
 We all know that we have but one life to live, and naturally we want to make a success of that. But if we do not begin insuring this by paying the premium of effort now, the chances are mighty slim. We all are always going to start in to work some day, but we usually put it off for a while. But before we know it, it is too late. And that suggests an excel lent method of insuring success, namely: Never procrastinate. Pro- crastination is the thief of time, and l have just showr you the importance of saving time. The only way to make good is to do your duties at the right time, and never put off until to- morrow that which can be done today, for tomorrow may never come.
 It is the little things that count, too. Even here in school we know that the only way to be successful is to know every lesson every day ever so well.
 Last year MT. Wait of the Arkan- sas Bankers association made us a speech that I will remember long time on "Thrift." A man must be thrifty to succeed nowadays, because man is not success unless he is prosperous, and a man can not be prosperous unless he is thrifty. Any body can make money, but it takes a wise man to save it.
 I once read in manual put out by the New York City school board number of characteristics necessary to success. I have chosen few, which I will enumerate. As I mention them, ask yourselves if you have these quail ities. or if they are lacking in you. Here they are:
 Cleanliness, good personal appear ance, correct speech, self-control, courage, punctuality, orderliness, ac- curacy, thrift, refinement, cheerful ness, sense of cooperation, loyalty, industry, perseverance, self-relianee, originality, enthusiasm, honesty, clean nlindedness, courtesty, unselishness, ambition.
 l could speak an hour on each of these, but as am limited to five min utes l will not.
 Some of you may ask me how. know so much about success. The fact is, from the standpoint of actual experience, I don't know anything about it, but this is my opinion of how a boy may be sure of success in life, having read about it, and having heard number of men speak on it.
