Questions Answered by Marie Riley.
(Miss Riley will answer in this col
umn all questions an matters of ETH
auette addressed to her in care of this
paper. If a personal answer is desired
enclose 3-cent stamp.)
You should remember that when
you ask people to visit, you have two
very important duties to perform, one,
not to neglect your guests, the other
not to weary them by too much atten-
ton. Do not give your guest the i'm
preston he is being entertained, or
that he is on your mind. See that he
is comfortable and has access to diff
sferent means of entertainment, after
taht go about your regular duties as
you need to and if you have a model
guest who shows desire to be pleased
and to please, let him choose his
own hours and retirement.
L. D. N: When sending out invita-
tons for a church wedding, include all
your friends as there is an unusual
feeling about being left out at a we'd
ding, and no explanations that it is a
small and not general invitation"
seems to satisfy those who are left out.
There would be no need to offend
anyone.

the United States are represented on
this board. The president and direc-
tors work without salary, and are de-
voted to their work. Any Associated
Press paper, no matter how small
or how few words it receives, even as
few as 500, is assured justice and fair
treatment from this board of able
men, skilled in the newspaper calling
and in business affairs.
About a month ago at the annual
meeting of the Associated Press in
New York, a very interesting feature
of a luncheon for newspaper editors.
was the presentation to Mr.. Stone of
$4,000 in liberty bonds; twenty-fi
bonds of $1,000 each. or $1,000 for
each year of his service as general
manager of the Associated Press.
Mr.. Stone was surprised and amazed
and deeply moved by the tribute.
1 will say that this presentation of
$4,000 was purely voluntary on the
part of the members. Many members
who contributed gave the amount of
their weekly assessment, and were de-
lighted at the opportunity that per-
mitted them to do so.
Each one at the Associated Press
luncheon, and later every member OF
the Associated Press, received as a
souvenir a beautiful volume of $50

American Troops Reported on
Front of Attack.

New York. May 27.-Paris and the
Marine are the detectives of Won Hin
denburg, if the strong German at
tacks between the rheims and Scissor
reported by Marshal Haig are the
forerunners of a new offensive against
the allies.
American troops have been re-
ported as undergoing training in this
sector, and just behind the front is
highly important railway line which
runs directly into another American
sector in the Verdun region. If the
German attacks grow into a serious
menace it is probable Americans will
be called upon to help stem the enemy
advance. ss
This sector is the most advantage
Gus, from the allied standpoint, in
which the Germans can attack.
The Marine is from 20 to 80 miles
south of and parallel to the Rheims
scissors front. and Paris itself is so
miles away. Slight gains by Won Hin
denburg can best be afforded by the
allies here.
