SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS.

That man must be misanthrope
indeed in whose breast something
like a jovial feeling is not aroused,
In whose mind some pleasant as
sociations are not awakened by the
recurrence of Christmas. Who can
be insensible to the outpourings Of
good feeling and the honest inter-
change of affectionate attachment
which abound at this season of the
year? A Christmas family party!
We know nothing in nature more
delightful! There seems a magic in
the very name of Christmas. Petty
jealousies and discords are forgot
ten; social feelings are awakened in
bosoms to which they have long been
strangers; father and son, brother
and sister, who have met and passed
with averted gaze, or look of cold
recognition, for months before,
proffer and return the cordial en-
brace and bury their past animosi-
ties in their present happiness;
kindly hearts that have yearned to-
ward each other, but have been
withheld by false notions of pride
and self-dignity, are again reunited
and all is kindness and benevolence.

AN IRISH TUNE.

Will you listen to the laugh of II
Gushing from the fiddle;
More's the fun in half of 1t
Than cen an Irish riddle.
Sure, it's not a fiddler's bow
That's making sport so merry;
IT'S just the fairies laughing So.
/ heard them oft in Kerry.
Will you listen to the step Of 1t,
Faith, that tunes daisy;
Just the very leap of it
Would make the feet unaisy;
Hold your tongues, you noisy
rogues,
And stop your giddy prancing;
it's me can hear the weshee brogues
OF Irish fairies dancing.
VIII you listen to the tune of 1t,
Sweeter than the honey,
I'd rather hear the Groom of 1t
Than get a miser's money.
Sure. my son, it makes me cry
But don't play any other;
May God be with the days gone by
1 danced 1t with your mother.

Austrians had failed to achieve even
the preliminary results which usu-
ally followed a crushing offensive.
Describing the operations, the
Premier said:
"a very violent bombardment be-
gan at 5 o'clock, and at 7 o'clock an
infantry attack was launched along
the whole line. The latest news
which has reached me summarizing
the situation at / o'clock is that our
troops have offered magnificent re-
sistance."
a message sent from the front to
the Premier concludes as follows:
"A comparison of all reports re-
ceived shows that the offensive was
pressed only in the first zone of re-
sistance. and not even at few
points has it obtained the effect
which the enemy must have hoped
for from his powerful commandment
and the enormous electives launched
an attack against which our troops
are resisting magnificently."

British Press Praises
French and Americans
For Checking Germans

LONDON, June 15.-The London
press generally pays tribute to the
valor Of the French in withstanding
and finally checking The recent i'm
petuous rush of vastly greater Ger
man forces At the same time the value
of the American cooperation in achiev-
ing this result is fully recognized
Not only did the enemy, although
taking valuable ground, fail to gain his
objective while suffering sensible
losses in electives, but, it is contended
the repeated postponements of the
promised victory must materially
weaken the confidence of his people at
home.
In recognizing. however, that the
crisis remains, the press is turning to
speculation as to what point the Ger
man staff will choose for it's next as-
sault. This, il Is maintained, must be
revealed very soon, owing to the short
ness Of time remaining before the
Allies arc strengthened by the full
power Of Amerca, This, says the
Daily News" will rob the enemy of
his last dwindling hone of victory.

Germans Directed
The Lost ATTEMPT
To Conquer italy

The last great Austro- German often
sive, begun in October, 1917, rolled
back General Cadorna's line from the
lsonzo front and along the Venetian
plain. More than million enemy
troops participated in this operation,
directed by German officers, and it was
not for many weeks that the Italians
were able to stay the advance.
About the middle of November the
Piave River battle began along a
ninety mile front in Northern italy.
and French and British troops were
hurried to reinforce the shaken Italian
army. The crisis was passed about the
first of December, and since that time
there has been heavy fighting, in which
the Italians and their allies carried out
many successful counter attacks.
There have been insistent cries from
Germany for Austrian action along the
Italian front, to coordinate with the
German offensive in the western zone,
and for months past the Italians have
been preparing for just sreh a blow as
apparently is now being struck.
The Italian army has been re-
equipped, and General Diaz has sue
ceeded General Cadorna as the COM
mander-in- chief,

Bon7bard7ent Begun
On 1OO-Mile Front
From Asiogo TO Sea
In United Preasl

LONDON, June 15.-The Aus
trians to-day began terrific bonn
bardment on 100-mile front.
The Rome War Office reported
that the Italian artillery replied
with a counter bombardment, which
was becoming more intense when
the latest word was received from
the front.
The cannonading extended from
the Lagarina Valley to the Adriatic
Sea. The official report said it was
"of extreme violence from the
Asiago Plateau to eastward of the
Brenta River, and also along the
Middle Pave.
This includes more than half of
the entire Italian front. The Laga-
rina Valley extends north and south.
The battle lines cross the valley
about five miles inside the Austrian
frontier and about twenty-five miles
due north of the City of Verona.
From here the lines run southeast
to the vicinity of Theme; then north
east to the Piave River, near Segu-
sino; then follow the Pave south
eastward to the sea.
The Asiago Plateau lies between
the Lagrina Valley and the Brenta
River directly north of the CITY of
Vicenza. The lines along the middle
Piave protect the important City of
Treviso, which is only fifteen miles
north of Venice.
The Rome statement also reported
that another Austrian attempt yes
terday to take the important Tonale
Pass was prevented by the Italian
batteries.
