Mich, the home of Mr.. Rummel's par
ents. BY a peculiar coincidence Earl
Morse and Harry Clark of this city
are doing a vaudeville turn at Esca-
naba this week, and a copy Of the
Escanaba Press has been received at
this office which contains the follow
ing complimentary account of their
work:
"The vaudeville act offered by
Morris & Clark at the Delft for the
present weekend, is considered to be
one of the best brought to- delft in a
number of weeks. Both have excel
lent voices, and yesterday afternoon
and last night scored decided hits
with Delft patrons The Mining Jour
nal of Marquette said of the act:
Morris & Clark, musical entertain
ers at the opera house the last half
Of this week, have an unusually pleas
ing act They sing well and introduce
into their act many clever song fea-
lures. The crude is noticeably absent
in the many tuneful numbers, and the
act is one of the best of it's kind that
has appeared in the city"

APPLES FROM TWO
SEASONS EXHIBITED

Herman Voll, who resides about a
mile southwest of this city, has
brought to this Office apples grown in
1915 and 1916. Of course the ones
two years old show they have been
around the earth nearly twice, yet are
eatable. The apples of 1916 are in
excellent condition. The variety is
the Willow Twig, and the trees were
planted by Jason Squires when he re-
sided on the place. Persons looking
for long keepers should not pass by
the Willow Twig.

CORN IS KING

There is no farm crop that pays a
farmer as much as corn. The Frank
Herfort Canning company pays more
for sweet corn this year. Sweet corn
fodder is worth three times as much
for cows as any other corn slower.

drew last night from positions astride
the Souchez River, south of Lens, along
a front of two miles and TO a depth OF
200 yards.
The evacuated ground was immedi-

Canadian troops this morning en-
tered the village OF La Coulotte and
pushed their patrol out on the heels
OF the retreating enemy south Of the
Souchez River, opposite Mericourt, and
the roads linking that village with
Avion and Lens. Along this line the
German retirement came TO halt in
strong positions previously prepared.
Reservoir Hill, the most powerful out
post in the ring of defences around
Lens. fell into the hands Of the Ca
madam troops early last evening. Pa
trolls reached the summit OF the height
without encountering opposition, and
quickly pressed down the eastern slope.
Meanwhile. other detachments pushed
forward south of the Souchez, occupied
railway fortifcations east OF the Lens
Electric Station, and continued their
advance 70 La Goulotte, which was

jsh troops advanced down the eastern
slope Of Hill 65.
The Germans have extended the
foods with water from the River Sou
chez until the plain between Avion and
Lens is we'll covered. The mill city on
the western fringe of Lens has been
razed by order of the German higher
command. so that the machine guns
NAV have clean sweep at the British

OF ruins. The walls still stand, but the
city is roofless. making airplane photo

Whole rows of houses have been
levelled that the field guns may obtain
wider ranges. The entire city has been
converted into German fortress, IN
which each ruined house is machine

For weeks the British refrained from
shelling Lens, but the Germans, tax
