GERMANS STILL
FAIL IN EFFORT
FOR OBJECTIVE
They Got a Skinful" French
General Says of Enemy Aft
er 5 Days Battle.
(By Associated Pressl

PARIS, June 1.-THE position OF
the latest German effort after five
days of fighting is described inelegant-
ly, but aptly, by general who has
just arrived from the front as follows:
'The Germans got skinful."
Military commentators are unani-
nous in reporting one more German
failure. The enemy has won strip
of territory not without value, but has
sacrificed for it precious divisions
without at any point attaining his OBJ
jective and without bringing him any
nearer decisive result.
Such is also the opinion of Henri
Bidou and Col De Thomasson, who
would be the last person to hail vic
tory premature1y.

ROAD
NATlON.W WIDE BOOST IS SEEN
All States Of Union Have Avalled
Themselves Of Opportunity o.
fered by Government

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture.)
That the better roads movement Is
receiving n nationwide boost Is shown
by the fact that all the states of the
Union have availed themselves Of the
opportunity OF participating in the
benefits of the federal aid road act,
which appropriated $75,Oo0,000 for the
construction of post roads and $10,-
100000 for forest roads. according to
the report of the director Of the Office
Of public roads and rural engineering,
United States department Of agricul-
ture. That the passage of the act has
stimulated road building is shown by
the fact that In 1916. there were APP
nroximately SAL ,OO0,0 600 of state funds
expended for all highway purposes.
and 1t is estimated that In the calendar
year 1917, the aggregate expenditures
OF state funds for this purpose will be
at least $50, 600 0O. A number of the
states have made specific appropria-
tons to meet federal aid dollar for dol
lar. Among these are New York, ILL.,
nois, Michigan, Rhode Island, Nevada,
Iowa, Florida and Vermont.

AUTOMOBILE is BIG FACTOR
Present War Has Found in Roads and
Motor Cars Means Of Moving
Great Numbers of Men.

Two conditions Of civic life EN-
phasiZe the necessity for good roads.
One is war. The Roman roads were
built because Rome had vast armies
to move. The present European war
has kept thousands upon thousands
Of men busy in eastern Prussia and
western Poland building roads in ter
ritOries where before there were only
swampy trails. Many of the roads in
Belgium and northern France were
built during previous wars, when vast
armies must be moved quickly. so that
the present war has found in roads and
motorcarS the means Of moving great
armies as never before. Good high
ways have made possible a rapid trans
portation of troops which Is astOnish-
ing the entire world.

IMPORTANCE OF ROAD DRAGS
More to the Work Than Standing on
Implement Holding Reins Over
Team Of Horses.

Perhaps the ease Of dragging the
road and the simplicity Of the King
road drag has been overemphasized.
At any rate. there is more TO road
dragging than standing on a drag and
holding the reins over a team OF
horses. And there Is more to drag
building than merely pinning together
of the two slabs Of a split log. On the
other hand, almost any sort OF driv-
ing down the road with the toughest
possible pair Of slabs, slapped together
In any old way, will change the or

A Dollar That Can't Be Spent
By HERBERT KAUFMAN

n
Author of 'Do Something! Be Somefhing!"
LIVERY dollar spent in advertising is not only a seed dollar which
IL produces a profit for the merchant, but is actually retained bv
him even after he has paid it to the publisher.
Advertising creates a good will equal to the cost O. the publicity.
Advertising really costs nothing. While it uses funds it does not
use them up. 1t helps the founder OF a business to grow rich and
then keeps his business alive after his death.
1t eliminates the personal equation. 1t perpetuates confidence
IN the store and makes it possible for a merchant to withdraw from
business without having the profits of the business withdrawn from
him. 1t changes a name to an insttuuon-an institution which will
survive its builder.
1t is really an insurance policy which costs nothing-pays a
premium each year instead of calling for one and renders it possible
to change the entire personnel Of a business without disturbing it's
prosperity.
Advertising renders the business stronger than the man-inde-
pendent OF MS presence. 1t permanentizes systems of merchandise
ing, the track of which is left for others to follow.
"A business which is not advertised must rely upon the personality
OF ITS proprietor, and personality in business is a decreasing factor.
The public does not want to know the man who owns the store
1t ISM interested in him but in his goods. When an unadvertised
business is sold it is only worth as much as its stock of goods and its
fixtures. There is no good will to be paid fort does not exist
1t has not been created. The name over the door means nothing
except to the limited stream Of people from the immediate neighbor-
away which has regularly delivered its shop news to their homes.
1t is as shortsighted for a man to build a business which dies
with his death or ceases with his inaction, as is unfair for him not
to provide for the continuance of its income to his family.

WEIGH YOUR CHILD

Plans for the celebration Of Chill
dren's Year are being developed by
the Children's Bureau in cooperation
with the Child Welfare Department
of the Woman's Committee of the
Council of National Defense. The
safeguarding and protection of chill
dren is looked upon as a patriotic duty
in view of the unavoidable wastage
of human life incident to war. It is
expected tina the 5000 or more local
committees of the Child Welfare De-
partmentof the Woman's Committee
will be able to carry the campaign to
every community in the United States.
This is looked upon as essential to the
success of the movement. for in the
last analysis, every community must
save its W babies if they are to be
saved at all. State and Federal agen-
cies, either official or voluntary, can
make plans and offer suggestions but
each community must bear its full
share of responsibility in making the
campaign a success.
This campaign is to save 100,0 900
lives of babies and young children in
the United States during the second
year of the war by a National Weigh.
ing and Measuring Test.
This test is a spring inventory OF
the welfare of the. nations children.
The draft took stock of the men who
will go to the battle front in France.
It found less than two-thirds Of them
physically fit for service. Many of
these men were rendered unfit by de-
fects which authorities declare could
have been prevented if thy had been
discovered and cared for in childhood.
First of all the test can give par
ents an indication of the health of
their own children. In addition It can
provide a basis for judging how ade-
quately the community is guarding all
its children. The test can thus offer
a starting point for lettering the con-
ditions which affect children's welfare.
Some adverse conditions individual
parents can remedy; others demand
community action: but the Children's
Bureau believes that in one way or an
other children must be given in
creased protection if the baby death
rate is to be reduced here as 1t was
in England during the second year of
the var
In order that South Dakota may do
her share in saving child life the
Woman's Committee Of the Council of
National Defense has appointed WON
en- Tin each county, to carry on this
work. They must have the co-opera-
ton of every woman in the county
to do this and get results. Weigh
your child for the government.
The week, June oath to Goth, is
Baby Week, and every child under
school age, must by order of the gov.
eminent be weighed.
