MIGHTY DRIVE |S ALREADY PUSHING
 HUNS MILES BACK
(sY THE ASSOCIATED PREss)

Complete withdrawal of the troops of the Teutonic allies from occupied terri tories is essential to the commence ment of any peace discussions with Germany This. fact has been made known to Germany and Austria Hun gary by President Wilson in answer to the recent appeal of the German inn perial chancellor for an armistice on land and the sea and in the air and the discussion of possible means for end ing She war.
 In addition. President Wilson is je- sirous of knowing, and has directly asked the question, for whom the i'm perial chancellor was speaking when he advanced his proposal-whether it was for the constituted authorities of the empire who have been conducting the war or for the whole German people. The president also desires to know if Germany in seeking peace accepts the terms already laid down by the presi- dent as the basis for the ending of hos tilities.
 Entente Advance All Along
 Meanwhile the entents allied forces everywhere are defeating the armies of the Teutonic allies. In France they are fast carrying forward maneuvers which are resulting in the enemy's line giving way from the region of Cambrai and Verdun. Likewise in Macedonia and Turkish theaters, the cleaning up pro- cess continues unabated
 Over a front of 20 miles between Cambrai and St. Quentin, the British. American and French troops have started mighty drive, which, in it's initial stage, has thrown the enemy back from highly prized tactical posi- tions to depth of from two to five miles. Numerous towns have been captured and seemingly all the great defensive positions of the enemy in this region have been obliterated. Large numbers of prisoners have been added to the already great throngs captured since the allied offensive began. In addition, terrible casualties were in- flicted on the enemy by the heavy ar- tillery fire at the beginning of the at tack, which began early Tuesday morn ing, and the machine gun and rifle fire of the attacking forces against the enemy who resisted stubbornly at various points.
 Enemy Still Giving Ground
 The American troops fighting along side the British always were in the van and when night fell their positions were where the points of penetration oi the German line were greatest At last accounts hard fighting still was in progress. with the enemy steadily giv- ing ground.
 On the southern part of the battle front, from the Reims sector to the Mause river, the French and Americans are carrying out successfully theil conversing movement northward an6 on all sectors have gained additiona ground.

 BERNIE, Oct. 6.-The German emperor addressing the German soldiers at Rufach, Alsace, late in September said:
 Neither the French nor the Americans will break through our front in Alsace Lorraine. We shalI defend with the last drop of our blood these provinces which belong to us and which the Almighty has entrusted to us to administer as His stewards, and we shall keep them for the benefit of their inhab- itants and the glory of God.
 "Our faithful allies are with us in this. The last drop of blood of every Austrian and Hungarian sol dier, the last drop of blood of every Bulgarian and Turkish soldier will be shed before our enemies wrest from us land which belongs to Germany.

"Redhead" Is Farmers Friend.

"Redhead" is q regular doctor of the
fruit orchard, Systematically search
ing every crack and crevice in the
bark, and testing with his sharp little
augur every spot which looks as
though it might conceal beneath the
bark a tree-borer. The hundreds of
little holes drilled in the bark do not
hurt the apple trees, but they mean
that many an apple-bOrer has been
discovered and transfixed on red
heads spearlike tongue, to be swal-
lowed a second later with keen rel
ish, or taken away to a gaping fiedg-
ling.
The r~ed-headed wOodpecker usually
selects a partly decayed tree in which
to chisel q hole for it's nest. Both
father and mother bird take turns in
the excavating. The one that is off
duty forages in the vicinity for grubs,
beetles, a little corn, and preferably
beech nuts. At a loving call from its
mate it returns promptly to take its
turn on the job-about 20 minutes or
half an hour to the shift. "Redhead'
has a thrifty habit Of storing away
nuts for the winter, frequently to be
appropriated, however, by the SPUR
rels.

MERELY COUSINS OF CHRIST
Explanation Of Biblical Passages That
Seem to Say the Redeemer Had
Brothers and Sisters.

To judge from the passages Matthew
10 IA, 46; Is :55, 56; Luke 7:19; st.
John 7:3, 8, 10, Christ undoubtedly had
brothers and sisters. These passages,
are, however, contradicted by others.
from which we learn that the pretend
ed brothers of Christ were only his
cousins. Thus, according to Luke
6:15, and John 10 :25, James was the
son of one Alpheus, or Cleophas, and
Mary, the Virgins sister. From Mat
thew q :55, and Mark Is 40, we learn
that Joses, or Joseph, was James
brother, and ca, according to Luke
GIG, was also Jude. In other pas
sages the fourth pretended brother of
Christ is designated by the Jews as
the brother of James, Jude and Joses.
1t is also claimed, in explanation of
this theological puzzle, that the Jews
were wont to apply the term brother
to cousins, to relatives in collateral
line, and even to mere friends (Gene-
sis II :14-29). The view that the
aforementioned personages were but
Christ's cousins, and not his brothers,
is held by Tertullian, Origen, Ambrosi-
us, Irenaeus and, in fact, by all the
Catholic church; also prominent
protestants (Grotius, Calvin, etc.)
share In 1t.
