Doesn't Tell All Story.

This shows concisely the result, but
does not tell either the local story
of the stubborn, bloody fighting neceS-
sary to win the advance nor the gen
eral story of what it means as a part
of the allied offensive scheme. I'm

and night except for u few days halt

the offensive started. The right
flank OF the american Army was op-
posed to German artillery on the
bluffs north of Ferdun.
Tuesday the American artillery was

the northern tip of the forest of Ar
gonne, where they were making their
last stand before retiring on the
krienhile steilunS (position), which
is ON the homage crest, between the

Hindenburg Line, Four Miles Deep.
When the offensive started the army
faced the Hindenburg system of de-
lenses, better known as the linden
burg line, which few weeks ago
stretched unbroken across the face
of France. This sector of the Hin
denburs line in addition to con-
tinuouS front trench system has two
systems of defense. known as the
Hagen SteHuns and the Folker Stel-
lung, separated by areas several kilo-
meters wide fortified with pill boxes
aud beautifully interspersed with
Iayous All is part Of the Hindenburg
line, covering an average depth of
seven Ililometers az miles,, giving
am idea of what the wood line means
in trench parlance.
The Americans tore through these
supposed impregnable defcnses on the
FIRST dav, lust as they had done previ-
ously at the st. Mihiel salient. and
lust as the French and British pune
tured it at other stretches farther to
tn. west. Today practically all of the
IIindeuburg line is far behind the
allied front. The Argonne forest, an
inlpassable barrier to armies in every
previous war in French history, pre-
scented the hardest resistance by the
Germans. Not only We're there
trenches, but fei1ed trees interlaced
patEs. machine guns in concrete en-
nl,ccments and every other irnagina-
hle menus of defense. The other por-
tions of the advance kept pace with

The 1st Corps, under Maj. Gen. Hunter

named after characters in German
mythology similar to those in the

SEEN
IN TURK SILENCE
Pfo-German Forces Face Ut
ter Collapse, Is View
Here.

The non-appearance of the Turkish
peace note, reported to have been sent
with that of Germany
and Austria, and the report from Lon
den and Paris of impending and far
reaching events in Constantinople
have strengthened the opinion here
that the situation in Turkey is des-
perate. 1t is believed by officials in
touch with Turkish affairs that the
pro-German government faces utter
collapse. if, indeed, that has not al
ready taken place, and that the new
government will make a direct appeal
to the allies for peace at any price
Opposed Turkish Stand.
1t is known that Tewfik Pasha, the
new premier, has opposed Turkeys
stand in the war on the side of the
central powers. 1t also is thought
possible that he stopped the note re-
ported to have been addressed to the
United States about the time of his
so that he could make a
direct plea of his own.
The State Department has heard
unofficially that Representatives of the
various factions in Turkey already
have appealed to officials of the allied
government in Saloniki, promising to
accept unconditional terms.

WE STARTED SOMETHING
WITH THE ALLEN EDITOR

In reply to an article which ap-
pared in the JoucnaI Nov. Goth with
reference to the fact thai Mr.. H. K.
Midkiff had been selected to look af-
ter tick eradication in Allen parish as
well as Jefferson Davis, the Kinder
Tribune lands on us with both feet,
as follows:
"The Rice Belt Journal published
at Welsh, La, in its last weeks is
sue takes rather a scornful pride in
the fact that the tick eradication in
spector for Jeff Davis parish had been
appointed to superintend the work in
Allen parish in conjunction with his
duties in the adjoining common
wealth. According to the reputation
given the gentleman who is to look
after cattle dipping in Allen as the
successor of DR.. LoWden, by our
Welsh contemporary, one is lead to
believe that he is of the habit of rum
ming things to suit himself. And we
think that the editor of the paper who
thus delivered himself was prompted
more by a desire to make himself
"cotton" with the tick man, rather
than cast any reflection on the intel
ligence and progressiveness of the
good people of Allen parish. At least
we are inclined to take this charita-
BILE view of his expostulation.
AS for the vat dynamiting which
occurred in the parish some few years
ago, we beg to inform our less in
formed Welsh editor that the lawless
practice referred to was perpetrated
by folks laboring under a misconcep-

AN APPROPRIATE CHRISTMAS
GIFT,

Young folks, here is a Christmas
present you can get if you will put
the matter squarely up to you par
ents, in fact, they can hardly turn
you down, for this is the best PROPOSE
:tion you ever put up to them; it is a
thing that yill win your independence
and enable you to earn good salary
It is a scholarship in the Tyler Com
mercial College Of Tyler, Texas,
Americas largest school Of Book
keeping, Business Training, Short
hand, Cotton CHASING, Telegraphy,
Business Administration and FL
nance--the school that not only pre-
pares it's students in a very efficient
manner for the best positions in the
largest business Offices, but secures
these positions for them. So effic-
iently is it's work it has been designat-
ed by the u. S. government as one OF
the approved schools for the re-
training of disabled soldiers and
sailors.
The cost of a life scholarship in a
course of Bookkeeping is $50, Short
hand $50, or the two $4,000. Teleg-
raphy $4,000. Cotton Chasing $50.
Business Administration and Finance
$4,000. Board and room is from
$14.O0 to $500 per month, payable
monthly. The average time for COM
pleting our Shorthand course is three
and one half months, our Telegraphy
or Bookkeeping, four months. Bust
ness Administration and Finance
five months, our Bookkeeping and
Shorthand combined, five months.
Figure up your cost of board and tu-
ition and you will be surprised to

will always appreciate, because you
will never cease using it, it is some
thing of every day need, it makes of
you a useful citizen.

may be, haven't the cash to pay for

Midkiif is an entirely different man
from what the editor of the Kinder
Tribune believes. He is extremely
likeable and diplomatic, two things
that can not be said of the Journals
editor, and we trust that the editor
of the Tribune will leave out the
i'll feeling entirely. You are proba-
bly, correct in the opinion that if he
had been consulted he would not have
sanctioned the article.
Next we will apologize and make
public acknowledgement that civiliza-
ton and progressive instincts govern
other parts of the state and union be-
side that known as Jefferson Davis
parish. The relative progressiveness
of two sections of the given part of
a commonwealth is, however, a sub
ject for another and broader discus
sion. We believe in the progressive
ness Of our community and we will
preach it's merits till the end That
does not mean that we shall attempt
to belittle any other section.
Edior Vaughn says we were actu-
ated by desire to make ourselves
cotton with the tick man. We
don't deny the charge in it's entirety,
but we do say that we would much
rather be cotton" with man who
has done things worth while than to
be cotton" with dipping-vat dyna-
miters whom our neighbor defends in
glowing terms. He tells the world
in loud tone that Allen parish will
suit itself-or the element for whom
he speaks villas to whether the
tick shall be abolished. 1t is appro-
pirate here to say that the tick Grad
ication work is in the hands of the

ton of the law and its acknowledged
benefit to the cattle raiser, rather
thon Ignorance" and it's accompany
ing deeds of lawlessness. These same
folks are fully as anxious to dip their
cattle as the average small cattle pro-
Queer, and the rather exalted heights
to which he has raised his tick dipper
from Jeff Davis, as being man who
will straighten things out in Allen is
certainly ill-taken.
The least that can be said of the
article to which we refer is that it
was revolving to the finer sense of our
people and especially to the body by
whom he will be employed and under
whose jurisdiction he will work. AS
for the gentleman in question, we
are of the opinion that had he been
consulted about the matter he would
not have sanctioned the appearance
of the article in print, that is if he
is the kind of man suitable for the
responsible position to which he has
been giving his attention in Jefferson
Davis parish. We sincerely trust that
Mr., Howard, publisher of the
Journal will see fit to apologize for
his mistaken viewpoint and be fair
minded enough to make public ac-
acknowledgements that civilization and
progressive instincts govern other
parts of the state and union beside
that section known as Jefferson Davis
parish"
Before we enter into the details of
this article it is our deep desire to
absolve Mr.. Midkiff entirely from any
blame whatever in the premises. He
was not consulted in the matter-not
even interviewed. Furthermore, Mr..

Federal government and is not left
to local newspapers to enforce.
Editor Vaughn makes the word
IGNORANCE stick out by the mis-
use Of quotation marks. In terms
of the art preservative that is merely
a typographical error and during our
four (only) months experience as
editor Of a country newspaper we
have learned to overlook typograph-
zeal errors He did, however, pur-
posely refer to US as Mr." We have
never done anything to merit the
title of distinction and only hope that
in further discussion he will omit it.
Editor Waugh infers that he has a
great capacity for delicate and re-
fined conceptions, keen sense of
the fneness of things relative to the
sentiments of the people of his par
ish. He thinks his readers only need
to hear what he says in comment
about our article to which he takes
: offense. Journalistic courtesy die
tates that an article of publication
which is to be commented upon
should precede the comment. You
can tell people lot of stuff but un-
less you can convince them your eff
forts are fraught with much waste
of effort.
If you wish to show us anything
more than the simple fact that your
feelings are easily hurt bring out the
records and tell US just what the large
cattle growers of Allen parish have
actually done toward the eradication
of the tick. In plain, simple Eng
lish pick the ticks off your cow before
you pick flaws in our mode of boost
