Havre, Nov. 19.-Nearly every con-
ceivable brass, copper and bronze OBJ
ject which enters into the construc-
ton or furnishing OF house and
a building has been requisitioned by
the German authorities in occupied
Belgium. A copy of decree publish
ed at Brussels September 80, which

seizure and compulsory delivery of all
such objects.
A list of % classes of objects which
private individuals are compelled to
deliver to the German invaders in
cludes everything frCm fireplace and
bathroom fixtures to curtain rings and
brass cloak-room checks. Nothing
seems to have been too small or in
significant to escape being placed on
the list.
The decree states that a search Will
be made Of all dwellings and that all
Classified objects which have not been
delivered to the German authorities
will be taken by force.

Who Will Help Soldiers
Christmas Box Fund -?

The Valley City committee of the
Soldiers Christmas Boxes are hard
at work. They had decided that every
man in the service of the United
States from Barnes county should
have a Christmas box and in that box
there should be one pair of home knit
socks together with7tihe other articles.
The ladies' committee who have this
in charge have been hard at work and
have arranged for many knitters and
they have obtained some yarn, but it
takes money to buy yarn and other
articles for these boxes and the ques-
tion is how will this money be OBJ
tanned. The Masonic Chapter of VAL
ley City donated $1O0. The Valley
City Elks about the same sum. The
net receipts of the Old Settlers dance
$3.50, was turned into this fund. This
is good cause and we are all inter-
ested in it and the committee wonders
if there are not some other fraternal
or other organizations in the city that
would help this fund along. This is
used to make our boys happy at
Christmas time Come, let's show
our interest in our boys. Take this
matter up at your next meeting and
what you decide to donate to this
fund report to j. II. S. Thomson,
treasurer, or l. J. Moe, chairman.

Italian Headquarters in Northern
Italy, Nov. 17.-On the northern line
and along the Piave river above Zen
son the fighting has assumed extreme
severity. The enemy, whose forces ex-
ceed the Italians on the Northern line,
now has thrown fresh divisions into
the battle in supreme effort to break
through. The Italians are resisting
with desperate tenacity. 1t is one of
the bitterest struggles of the war and
the losses are heavy.
On the Piave river the enemy cross
ed at two points, Follina and Fagare,
few miles above Zenson. Those at
Follina were annihilated while those
at Fagare were driven back to the
western bank with heavy losses and
many captured
The Italian lines are holding in the
main, but the fury of enemy assaults
renew the gravity Of the situation.
Navy is Helping
The Italian navy is doing splendid
service in the bombardment of ene-
my positions toward the mouth Of the
Piave river. The navy, which held the
coast front from the south of the Ison-
20 to Grade, saved all of its material
and connan, and these now are being
trained on the enemy.
Near Revedoli. an Italian marine
battalion repulsed on Saturday rush
made by an Austrian storming party
and Italian torpedo boats off Potro di
Correllozzo drove off an attack of an
Austrian torpedo fleet. This latter &C.
ton was accomplished by operations
of fleet of Italian hydroplanes and
seconded by Italian coast betteries.
Troops Cheer Up
Conditions all along the line show
that the spirits of the Italians have
been terminated by the recent sue
cesses.
On the middle Piave river, where
the Austrians gained foothold on
the west bank, near Zenson, they are
held to waters edge and the only
communication with the east bank is
at night when flatboat is dragged
from side to side, bringing a small
stock Of supplies. On the shore they
have set up line of machine guns to
hold back the Italians from rushing
them into the river. Some of tho
Italians begged to rush this line and
were restrained only by the positive
orders Of their commanders who will
not send his men in the face of such
machine gun fire, when he believes
that the line can be reduced by other
means.
