HOW THE BATTLE GOES

The lighting in Europe during the
past week has been favorable to the
Allies, but their progress has been
slow. The Germans have held their
lines generally, the British and the
French making small gains, notably
in the vicinity of st. Quentin. The
Americans have not been heavily en-
gagged.
The offensive against the Bulgari-
ans by French, British. Italian and
Greek troops has developed well and
the Bulgarians are in retreat.
The defeat Of the Turks in Pales-
tine grows in importance. About
$4,000 prisoners have been captured.
and many more Turks are hemmed
in between the British army west of
The river Jordan and Arabs east Of
the river
There was only trench raiding in
Italy.
About 100000 Americans have ar
rived in Europe during the past 30
days. One transport loaded with our
boys was torpedoed about 200 miles
off the coast of England, but no one
ives even injured

CITY SCHOOL NOTES

School is progressing nicely under
the management Of Prof. Moody We
have ten of the best teachers in the
Eiate. Everybody is taking tests
this week and seems to be enjoyins
it.
The school has adopted two French
orphans. 1t costs only ten cents a
day to feed each child We get the
money by having penny box in ey-
cry room. Every child is expected
to bring few pennies each week.
The girls take one afternoon out
OF every week to piece quilts for the
soldier boys. The boys are also
showing their pateiotism by making
tongue depressers for the soldiers in
The hospitals.
Mr. Moody is very strict on tardi-
ness. If you want to come to this
school you must surely be on time.
Our janitor, Mr.. Slagle, is plan
ming to leave us. We regret very
much TO have him leave, and sincere
1y hope his health will soon be bet
ter, and we wish him much success
through life.
A number of the pupils take music
and art and are getting along nicely
under the instruction of such good
teachers.
We have several new pupils and
try to make them feel at home just
as much as the others.
Every week Mr. Moody gives cur
rent events on the war. His talks
are very Instruct i've.
One of the rooms gives program
every Thursday and all parents are
invited to come.
Ic an sincerely say that l am glad
I'm pupil of the Cookeville City
School. LILLIAN COOPER.

WAR PERIOD RICH
IN DISCOVERIES

That medical science is not asleep
during the war Is proven by .she man
ner in which the possibilities offered
by the discovery of Irogen were In
tfantly realized and developed for
the good of humanity.
Irogen, it is claimed, is discoy-
cry for the weak. Weak nerves,
weak muscles, weak stomachs -in
fact, weak organs in general are
greatly strengthened by it, and those
who have taken it claim that even
weak compilations, pale and sallow,
take on the ruddy appearance Of
health under its influence.
Warning is given, however, that,
owing to it's well known fiesh-build-
ing power, Irogen should NOT be ta-
ken by any one who does not desire
TO add fiesh.
