Not Much Likelihood of Break

Washington, Feb. 14.-Peace be-
tween the United States and Austria
can come only when the Austrian peo-
pie break with the German Junkers
Possibility of such peace is strong.
To drive home the former statement
while convinced of the latter one,
President Wilson made his momentous
address to congress, it is stated semi
officially today.
The president wants the Austrian
people to know that this is not a
swash buckling nation.
His address was designed-te answer
the peace note spreading thruout the
woodland at the same time to serve
America is not gulled by the vagaries
of Won Hertling.
Both Peace and War Message.
In seeking a definite Interpretation
of the presidents message, the United
Press sought also to clear up doubt
as to whether or not it was funda-
mentally a peace or, war message. 1t
was both.
The president is more than ever de-
termined to wage the war to a success
full termination-but at all times he is
prepared to meet the Teuton peoples
in negotiations for peace.
A separate peace with Austria can
come if she will break with Germany
The president has not backed down
from his original stand on peace. He
will not deal with the German Junk
ers. The German people must break
away from the absolute control of Won
Hindenburg and Ludendorff. They
need not dethrqne their kaiser, who is

one of four men will doubtless be
appointed by Judge John C. Pollock
to succeed the late Morton Albaugh
as clerk of the United States district
court for the district of Kansas. At
least three men-Sessions, Campbell
and Price-were today regarded as
candidates, while George Sharitt of
Topeka was mentioned and claimed to
be in a receptive frame of mind. 1t
is probable Judge Pollock will an
nounce the name of his new clerk
before the opening of the March term
of court in Wichita.
Albaugh's former position was held
as san office of much prominence in
state politics. Appointments are prac-
tically for life. The court clerk is
named at the pleasure of the federal
judge and the federal judge is named
for the indefinite period of his life or
until he may be removed for cause.
Had Albaugh lived there is little ques-
ton that he would have continued in
office many years. He was regarded
as a court official of unusual ability
and on several occasions when leg1sla-
lures and politicians threatened trou-
BILE for the federal court. it was AL
the kinks.
Four Men Suggested.
Charles H. Sessions, chairman of the
Republican state committee and pri-
vate secretary to Governor &capper,
was today regarded as a strong con-
tender for the position, as was also
Frank Campbell, for number or
years assistant clerk under Albaugh
and an efficient court attache. Ses-
sions's friends are known to have
strongly urged his appointment. In
fact several delegations of prominent
Kansans have called on Judge POLLOCK
since Albaugh's funeral in Topeka
Monday afternoon.
Sessions is a veteran Topeka news
paper man, was for a time private
secretary to Governor Hoch, was four
wears secretary of state and has been
private secretary to Governor Capper
since he entered the state mouse IN
1915.
For rumber of years Frank Camp
hell had been intimately associated
with Albaugh in the clerks office. As
assistant clerk, Campbell has learned
the routine of the office until he can
repeat it backwards. He has scores of
friends among lawyers and other per-
sons who have been brought in toucn
with the office in a business way.
Clarence Price of Pittsburg has
been active in Third district and state
politics COR a number of years. He is
engaged in business in Pittsburg and
for several years was chairman of the
Crawford county Republican commit
tee and also at the head of the con-
gressional committee.
George Sharitt of Topeka is also
mentioned for the appointment. Shar-
lit is not regarded as a candidate He
was clerk of the old United States cir
cult court until it was abolished by
act of congress. After leaving the
clerks office, Sharitt was appointed
by Jud &c Pollock in 1912 as receiver
for the Kansas Natural Gas company
Fees in the receivership case rather
lessened any financial shock which
might have been occasioned thru the
thoughtless action of congress in abol-
ishing- the circuit court clerkship.

STEP IN FOOD CONSERVATION
Minnesota Physician Has Discovered
Method Of Condensing ButtermiIk
and Retaining Nutritive Value.

In recent interview with DR.. Will
liam Grelck of st. Paul, Mimi, the
fact was brought out that immense
quantities of buttermilk have been
wasted. Doctor Grelck is a member
of the American Chemical society and
for years has devoted much study to
the milk problem. AS result Of his
efforts a method has been discovered
for condensing buttermilk into a semi
solid smooth substance of the consist
ency of ice cream.
All the nutritive value Of the but
termilk is conserved in this product,
and 1t is especially suitable for use in
bread making. From eight to ten
pounds of this material when added to
barrel Of -four produce loaf of
greater food value. The milk protein
helps to make up the deficiency in our
present-day flour substitutes. The
vitamines Of the butterfat help to de-
fine the structure Of the bread, besides
producing an agreeable milk flavor !;
and the sugar of milk, aside from be-
ing of great food value, when COM
bined with the dextrin in flour makes
a fine brown crust at comparatively
low baking temperature. It saves
fuel and prevents unnecessary loss Of
moisture.

TIME TO EXERCISE PATIENCE
Machinery of Business, at Present a
Little Out of Order, Will Soon
Be Running Smoothly.

Now is the time for all good Ameri-
cans to be patient. 1t is true that the
times are out of joint. Nothing is done
the way it should be done, a plague of
incompetence is upon us, there has
been a general slowing down in all
branches of business and industrial life
and general lowering of the average
of social efficiency. But it is the war,
and we must have patience. Don't flare
up and tell us that it takes ten min
utes to get your party" on the tele-
phone, and then, like as not, it isn't
your party at all. You ought to be
thankful for any party.
And the elevators! And the clerks |!
They do not wait on you. You wait on
the clerks, oh, so long. And it is going
to be worse-for while. But it is
the war, and it is to be expected and
we will have to put up with it. Bust
ness and industry are in the hands of
recruits who have not been to training
camp. But they are being trained as
fast as possible, and by and by the re-
cruits will be veterans, the times will
get back in joint, things will be done
the way they should be done, efficiency
will again reign, business and indus
try will be speeded up and all will be
well. In the meantime, while the cap
tains of industry are training the rock
les and doing their best to get the
world running smoothly again, it is up
to us to be more patient than we ever
were before and smile all the while

With the American Army Northwest
of Verdun, Oct 16.-In the face of the
most stubborn resistance conceivable,
including literally hundreds of ma
chine gun nests, the Americans adj
vanced again and Widened the
breach in the Kriemhilde line.
The Germans heavily shelled the
center and left center of the American
line and desperate cOunter-attacks
were carried out. These cOunter-at-
tacks failed.
The Americans who captured Hill
300 and penetrated the strong wire de-
lenses between LandreS-Et-St. Georges
and st. Georges, have passed st. Juvin.
Tanks were brought into action by
the Americans to break way through
the enemy wire entanglements west
of ROmagne. between the ArgOnne
and the MeuSe.
Despite German resistance the prog
ress of the Americans was satisfac-
tory. The weather was cold and
damp.

which began operations October II
under command of Maj. Gen. Robert
l.. Billiard, got it's baptism of fire re-
pulsing a German raid on their posi-
tons.

Allies Freeing Belgium.
London, Oct. 16.-Ostend has been
Outfanked, Bruges is in danger, and
the British are nearly at the suburbs
of Lille.
These are the principal high spots in
the news of the fighting front in Elan
ders, where the Belgians, the French,
and the British have made an advance
of nearly ten miles at points in two
days. So far more than 10000 prison
ers and 100 guns have been taken.
The German troops in this vicinity,
who fought vigorously in places have
been overcome and the advance of the
allies is becoming more rapid.
The small city of ThOurOut, rail
way junction point of lines running to
Ostend, Bruges and Client, has been
captured, as well as Menin, which the
enemy defended desperately. COur-
trai, really an outpost of Client, is be-

having been reported within less than
three miles of that place.

Ghosts in Maine.

The most tragic incident of the sum-

Edgecomb. An elderly couple coming
home from church saw two ghosts.
The ghosts were fitting without ap-
parent feet or legs through the gleam-
Ing and over the grass and through
other things. They were dressed, Of
course, in the conventional white of
ghosts and ghostesses. The elderly
couple legged it like mad. They fell
into cucumber patch and could not
extricate themselves. The old gentle
man was rather badly injured. They
we're rescued by the ghosts, who
proved to be couple of farmerettes

Value of Discarded Bones.

says that Birmingham has way of
dealing with old bones which is held
up by the national salvage council for
imitation in other parts of the coun-
try. Butchers who sell bones under
take to buy them back after the house
wife has made full use of them, pay
ing the customer half the proceeds of
their disposal for national purposes.
In this way they are saved to the ma
ton, which is urgently in need Of the
glycerin they contain, as well as of
the phosphates for manure and the
valuable pig and poultry foods which
can be extracted from them. House
wives are showing themselves eager
to respond to the governments appeal
