WAR SUMMARY.

Although Chancellor Won Hert-
ling has declared Germany's inten-
tions in the east were not aggres-
sive, German military authorities
have declined to grant an armistice
on the Russian front in view of the
bolshevik offer to accept peace, and
the German troops continue their
onward march. The bolsheviki are
now bending every effort to save the
revolution and Petrograd from the
hands of the invaders.
1t is rumored that the Germans
have reached Luga, midway between
Pskov and Petrograd. This is un-
confirmed, as is a report that the
enemy has advanced to point half
way between Luga and Pskov
Meanwhile, street fighting in Pskov
goes on, the city changing hands
alternately.
Workmen and troops from Petro-
grad and troops from Moscow are
being sent to check or stop the ad-
vanc on Petrograd. Women and
men are busily building trenches and
defensive positions around Petro-
grad.
The bolshevik government, it i.
declared, will retire to Moscow i
the Germans take the capital. Dis
agreement in the council of work;
mems and soldiers delegates is re
ported, and it is added that Foreigt
Minister Trotzky will quit the gov
ernment.
A provisional government ha
been formed in Esthonia with head
quarters at Reval and the independ
ence OF Esthonia has been pro
claimed. Chancellor Won Hertlin,
said that Germany would give sell
government to Cou,land and Lith
uania, but it is reported from Swift
zerland that Saxon prince is to b
made king of Lithuania, which viii
be united to SaXony.

western front have increased in in

less edict for Tuesdays it has been
rather difficult to get any organiza-
tion to serve the MONDAY lunch
cons regularly as a meatless menu
IS rather hard to prepare, especially
since the recent ban on the sale OF
chickens by farmers. The result OF
a discussion of the subject was a de
cision to meet Wednesdays in the
future, alternate luncheons being
served by the societies of st. Phil

Dyterian churches. The next lunch

tensity, especially in the Yprcs sec
tor, along the Chemin des Danes,
and on both banks Of the Meuse
near Nerdun.
On the American sector north
west of Toul, the Germans have at
tempted unsucccsSfully to wipe out
the Americans with flaming gas and
gas shells. Three American soldiers
were killed in two such attacks ana
nine suffered seriously from the ef-
iccts of the gas. The American ar
tillery is shelling the enemy posi-
tions heavily.
No official recognition has yet
been taken of Chancellor Won Hert-
ling's speech. 1t is regarded in
Washington, London and Paris as
war speech and not peace state
ment
German submarines have not let
up their campaign against Spanish
shipping. The steamer Neguri, OF
1896 tons, is the latest victim. She
is the fifth Spanish vessel to be tor
1edoed within five weeks.

The need of further equipment In
he way of buildings and other con-
vcniences for the Carter County
Free Fair was presented by Rota-
rian Woods, who pointed out I he
urgent need and said that the mat
ter was to be presented tc the city
commission with the hope that a
provision might be made in the
Forthcoming bond issue. Following
the precedent established in han
ding similar matters a committee
comprising Rotarians Woods, Kirk
patrick and Dolman was appointed
to investigate and report back to the
club.
1t was announced that c street
southeast would be paved within a
few weeks, afording a direct ap-
proach to within q short distance OF

tair is held annually, and the i'm
provement of a few blocks will fur

the grounds.
The various patriotic movements
came in for their share OF discus
sion.
The guest of the day was the Rev
George /. Snivcly of Lewistown
ILL.,, who is known to many Ardmore
people, he having had charge of the
raising of the fund to clear the First
Churstian Church of debt something
over year ago. He spoke briefly
and paid high compliment to the

that that worthy man became irri-

The village idiot went in search
of man uglier than himself, and
one day he found one.
He tapped him on the shoulder.

at the other for full minute.
