A PRAYER
BY JAMES W. WISE
OF the viuuantes.

Oh God Of right, to thee today
We raise in awe our fervent prayer:
Grant victory unto the men
Who fight for freedom over there.
We do not ask a victor's prize,
But power to stay the cruel hand
OF Prussian tyranny and greed.
And to avenge a ~plundered land.
Today we seek thee in the fight,
Thy mighty arm of wrath made bare:
Lord God OF hosts. thy cause redeem
And right the wrong!-This is ouI
prayer.

EGG DYES ARE
Omahans to Observe
Hooverized Easter.
MARKET DRUG

Easter egg dyes are a drug on the
market this year. They are worse than
drug, and the stores which laid in
supply face an absolute loss on
their entire supply.
Hoover has decreed that this Easter
be an eggless Easter and it looks like
the people of Omaha are going to
pay attention to his order. While egg
prices are about half what they were
a short time back, that will be no in
centive for Omaha to color Easter
eggs.
Il we'll remember the time when we
saved eggs for weeks before Easter
for two purposes" said the Oldest
Inhabitant. "One was that we might
have al. the eggs we wanted to eat
for Easter morning breakfast and the
other was so we might have plenty
to color"
Eyes, | remember that, too" said the
Careful Observer. ~ remember when
| was a boy on the farm we used to
hide all the eggs we could find around
the barn and save them for Easter" "
A visit to a couple of the down
town drug stores brought forth the
information that not package Of
Easter dyes had heen sold This may
be taken as one good guide for the
assertion that Omaha is to obey the
mandate and have a real eggless
Easter.

Not only the army of the Savarian

German crown prince is now engaged.
The German generals Immediately

north to the south Of the front at.

and Won Hutier. The army of Gen.
eral Won Hutier faces the French
along the Oise. It is very quiet today.
after the bloody defeat of its attempt
to cross the river. Most of the bridges
have now been blown up.
The fighting has been much more
severe in the sectors of Won Below
and Won Marwitz. 1t is evident the
allies are gaining the upper hand and
mastering the enemy with artillery.
Short of Aviators.
Owing to the terrible casualties
among his aviators, the enemy is
compelled to feel almost blndly for
weak spots in the allied lines, which
he has been seeking constantly so as
to throw against them some Of his
dense masses. When it is. remem-
bered that the enemy has more than
a division for every 1000 yards of the
front on which he attacked. an idea
may be gained of the difficulties with
which the allies have been beset.
Cross on Dead Bodies.
At one point on the Crozat canal,
where the Germans eventually gained
a crossing, they made l6 different at.
tacks on one day. Finally the British
corps which was holding the position
fell back, absolutely exhausted, and
the Germans crossed over a bridge
of piled up bodies Of their own COM
rades. .......
The German advance has been NOR,
rapid at some points and the allies
have scarcely had time to get away
with their cannon, as no horses were
near. One French battery of 75s was
dragged FIVE miles with ropes by the
gunners, who succeeded in saving it.

 The fact that the ledge is extensive is proved by the fact that a ten-foot prospect hole, sunk between thirty and forty feet from the shaft in which the discovery was made. but much lower down. has exactly the same sort of ledge matter in it.
 Sinking of the shaft from it's pres ent depth of S5 feet necessarily will be delayed until a pump can be in- stalled, as this marks water level. However. with such ore struck just above water level. the prospects for encountering high-grade stuff once tho shaft has been unwatered, seems excellent.
