EDITORIAL NOTES.

Most everything is being postponed these days except the daily advance of the allied forces
 The longer Turkey holds off from arranging an armistice with the al, lies the less it has to surrender.
 From the appearance of the Hin denburg line, it is cheaper to move than it is to stick and pay the price.
 The man on the corner says; Who could expect anything different now that Secretary of War Baker is in Europe!

 Do not let the encouraging wal news permit you to overlook the fac lIldI yOu uuSt uU yoUl uL1uOSI II boosting the Liberty loan over tn, top
 It can be definitely stated that th' German retreat Is not being made ou of any desire to relieve Belgium. bu because it is necessary to prevent ; worse disaster.
 Austria might as well understant right now that when it comes to ar ranging terms of peace the allied na tiOns and not Germany are going t do the dictating.
 | The report that American airplane are showing up favorably with for eign makes is gratifying. It is tim that something was said to thei credit after all the adverse reports. The Ausfro- Hungarians are show ing breakneck speed in getting out c Albania, and unless we are mistakel the Italians and the forces of Genera Fisperey will see that they do no change the gear.
 The suggestion was made tha the fuel administrator lift the ba, on gasless Sunday that people ma get out into the open which is one 0 the best preventives of influenza Some people never think of waIkin in order to take the air.
