1t is hoped the traffic of the heavy
trucks carrying gravel from the rail-
road siding to Pine Run will not injure
our new payment. The trucks weigh,
loaded, we are informed, something
more than seven tons, and while they
are equipped with rubber tires, the vi
bration is necessarily considerable.
We do not know that any injury is pos
sible and yet the thought of it has fire.
quently required to us. The pavement
is one of the finest improvements any
town the size of Clio could have, it
could not be constructed to-day for less
than fifteen thousand dollars, and it
would be shame if it should be per-
manently damaged. 1t is also a well
known fact that where a section of
pavement is broken up it can never be
put in as good condition as at first. 1t
is, indeed, the beginning of the end.
One of the county road commissioners
told the writer not long ago that ours
was the best piece of pavement in the
county. We have noted with pleasure
that during the elast few days the
trucks have passed through the bust
ness section of the village with tie ex.
haust muffied, thus lessening a very
disagreeable noise. We have no desire
needessly to interfere with any one in
the prosecution ofltheir work, but the
reasonable interests of our citizens are
entitled to fair consideration.

Gen. Haig Indicates Allies

French troops In the Woevre have
enllvened the virtual inactivity on the
Western front by successfully COM
pleting a sortie into the German lines
cast Of st. Mlhiel. Tho German posi-
lions on one-mile front were pene-
trated and 17S prisoners and some
machine guns captured. After de-
stroying the defenses and shelters,
the French returned to their own
lines.
The French also made an attempt
against the enemy lines near Ammer-

which claims the thrust was re-
pulsed. Paris announces the check
ing of German attempts In the region
Of Mont Teton, in Champagne. Mean
while the artillery duel northeast Of
Verdun and In upper Alsace continues
active.
German troops, In local attack
east Of Bullecourt, west northwest Of
Cambria, entered the British trenches,
but counter-attack elected the
enemy, who left eighteen prisoners in
the hands of the British. Berlin re
ports the failure Of a British thrust

tillery Ia still active in the Ypres Sec

Bad weather on the Italian front
has reduced infantry operations to
minimum, but the artillery is busy on
the northern line between Asiago and

Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig, in
his review of the 1917 campaign up to
nid-November, says that the addition
al strength the Germans have gained
from the Russian and Italian failures
has largely been discounted. He de-
clares that the ultimate destruction {
the German armies has been brought
appreciably nearer. The offensive
campaign planned for 1917 failed OF
completion, but on the Western front
the allies gained the victories CT

dun, Champagne and the Aisne.

GARRY HERMANN
again Heads National Commission
Rreyfus Denies Rumor He Traded
Mamaux For Wheat and
Cutshaw.


Cincinnati, Ohio, January 0 - Au-
gust Hermann was reelected chair-
man and John d. Bruce was re-eleco'
ed secretary Of the National Baseball
Commission, at the annual meeting oil
the commission here yesterday.
Owing to the fact that only min :
matters were TO be considered by the
commission, the interest centered In
number Of deals that were being at
tempted by various big league clubs.
Early in the day a rumor from a
we'll authenticated source had Brook
Ign giving lack Wheat and Cutshaw
for Pitcher Al Mamaux, Of Pittsburgh
and O cash consideration.
Barney Dreyfus Of the Pittsburgh
club, when questioned concerning the
rumor, said:
ut sounds good, but II Is untrLc.
That's the only bad part Of It."
The rumar gained credence, hoy :
ever, owing to the large number of
private discussions that took place
between Ebbets and Dreyfus.
Another rumor that would not
down but which likewise was givei
official denial, was that Catcher Sny-
der, of the st. Louis Nationals, hi
been sold to the Pittsburgh club. JAG
Hendricks, manager Of the st. Louis
Cardinals, said:
Snyder has not been sold to an.
body and there are good chances thu
he will be with the Cardinals whc
the season opens"
To all appearances the much talke !
of deal whereby the Chicago Natic'
ais would get Hornsby, of st. Lou
has fallen through. President Wee
Imam, Of the Chicago club, offert
four players and an amount of none
reorted to have been $4,000, f
Hornsby, but this was turned dow
by the st. Louis management. Weee'
man announced that this was his vel
best offer, and that he WAS thron3

REPORT INFANT DEATH RATE
 READY

Washginton, Jan. 9.-Tbe chance of life of a baby grows appallingly less as the fathers earnings grow smaller. This is shown in the re- sul's of the investigations of the Children's Bureau, made public in its fifth annual report.
 The Bureaus studies of in faAt mortality were made among 1G,OOO babies in eight American cities - JohnstoEn, Pa, Montclair, N. J.. Manchester, N. H., Brockton, Mass. Saginaw, Mich, New Bed ford. Mass, Waterbury, Conn, and and Akron, Ohio. ORe-fourth of all the fathers earned less than s55O year; in these families every sixth baby died. Only about one-eightb of the fathers earned $1O5O or more; of their babies only one in sixteen died. The rise of prices ard the diosrgaization of so- cial and industrial life with the war accentuate the importance of this persistent relation of income to tn- fant mortality.
 These studies show that to pro vide mothers care and decent home conditions, the fathers muse have adequate income. In Manchester, N. +, nearly three-fourths of the mothers whose husbands earned less than S45O a year were gainfm- ly employed; only about tenth when the husban's wage was $1O5O or over. The babies of mothers who went out to work died at more than twice the rate of more fortun- ate children

 NOT SHOWN IN BIOGRAPHIES

Washington, Jan. 9.-Tbe United States has sixteen new cities that the geographies do not show, each as large as Sacramento, They are the cantonments of the national ar my. Sixteen more cities, nearly as large, but not built so durably, house the national guard divisions.
 Altogether the war department has training going on in nearly 100 camas and stations. All the larg- CT ones have been built in the last six months. The cantonments were built in three months at total cost of 100000. The Panama Canal cost only a little more than twice as much-and took ten years tc build.
 In population the camps range from 300 to 47,00O. It is said that no large army was ever housed 80 comfortably before. Four of the cantonments situated farthesi nortn have steam heat. The rest have hot air.
