true that all employers dread changes
upless forced to make them-they
dread the period Of probation when
tXdng on new workers. So good work

The battle in northwest Russia in the region of Riga apparently is growing in intensity, but owing to di- Vergent reports by the Berlin and Petrograd war offices the results thus far attained are somewhat beclouded. While Berlin asserts that southwest of Riga all attacks by the Russians have been without success, Petrograd reports that near Lake Babit the Russians captured German positions between Tiru1 marsh and the river Aa and advanced their line about one and one-third miles southward. The Germans in the region of Kalnzem de- Hvered a counter-attack on the Rus sians who occupied a position east of the village, but it was put down by the Russians.
 In the past six days in this region the Russians report the capture of 21 heavy and eleven light guns and large quantities of arms and equip ment.

50 NEW HAVEN FIREMEN
 OVERCOME BY GAS
While Fighting Fire in the Historic
 Hyperion Theatre.

New Haven, Conn.,, Jan. 10.-Fifty firemen were overcome by poisonous gas while fighting blaze in the his torfc Hyperion theatre in Chapel street, opposite the Yale campus, to- night. Among those overcome were Chief Fancher, who was removed to his home. Six other dremen were also taken home.
 The fire started in a small storeroom at the rear of the top gallery, from an unknown cause, just as the audi ence was filing from the theatre at the closing of play. The theatre had barely been emptied before the alarm was sent in, to be followed by second and third alarms a few minutes later, bringing out nearly all the fire fight ing apparatus in the city.
 The fire itself was extinguished without much difficulty, but the in terior of the theatre was flooded with water.
 Physicians were unable to determine just what gas was formed causing the collapse of the f1remen, but it was be- heved to be carbon monoxide It was stated that the fire fighters probably would suffer no i'll consequences as the result of their experience.
