Conway, N. D., Sept. 2s.-Bur-
glars entered the Conway bank
building early Friday morning,
and by means of q series of ex.

and the safe which stood within
it, and made their escape with
about $4,000 of the banks cash.
The postoftice building was also
entered, and one sack of parcel
post mail was stolen.
The trail left by the robbers
indicates that they had first
broken into the tool boa at the
500 tower house and taken tools
with which to continue their
work. They appear then to
have entered the rostoffice, OPEN

the mail sack.

NEWSPAPERS OF
ENCLANDHONOR
The AMERICANS
Proof That Americans are
Good Soldiers Has
Been Given.

London, Sept 2s.-The victory of
the American army in France has
evoked tributes. not only from the
British and French correspondents
with the American army but from all
the English newspapers. The fact that
young American soldiers, pitted
against Prussian guardsmen, have
shown their, mettle is not overlooked.
# the ,American army needed any
proof of its claim to rank as the
equal Of the old European armies, it
has now given that proof. That Mar
shal Foch delegated 1t to the most
important post in his latest advance
is significant of his estimate of the
quality Of the Americans. The mill
tary correspondent Of the Westminster
Gazette says.
The public need not be at all con,
cerned il the French advance for the
moment, should not prove to be deep.
It should not be assumed on that ac-
count that the attack has fallen short
of success. What matters is the Amer
lean squeeze. II that gets home, and

REGISTRATION
WOMEN URGED
BY ROOSEVELT
Fourth Loan Campaign is
Opened in Baltimore by
Colonel Today.

Baltimore. Sept. 2s.-Registration
of young women as we'll as men for
Industrial training in peace times as
we'll as in war times was urged by
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt in a
speech here today opening the
Fourth Liberty Loan campaign.
I'VE now have an approach to the
have for years been demanding" he
said. I'VE now have all men from 18
to As required to serve their country
and required to register. Let US make
this system permanent and use it for
the purpose of peace no less than for
the purposes Of war. Let us extend
the principles to women no less than
to men. Let US have suffrage on serv-
ice. Let us demand the service from
women as we do from men, and in re-
turn give the suffrage to all men and
women who in peace and war per-
form the service, and to no others"
Colonel Roosevelt declared young
women should be registered just as
men are. II would give them both
certain fundamental forms Of in
dustrial Misunderstanding in the
things that are fundamental in the
ordinary work of the ordinary man
and woman in their business occupa-
tions and in and around their homes;
in the things which. it is good for
every man and woman to know.
Let there be q better proportion
than is now the case in Industrial life
between the. service rendered and the
reward given. Gradually hope to
see the wageworker become in a real
sense a partner in the enterprise In
which he works; and to achieve this
he must develop the power Of recog-
nizing the rights Of others no less
than insisting upon his own"
Touching on some of the things
that we should do at once in connec-
ton with the war" Colonel Roosevelt
declared one of the first should be to
(stop all profiteering by capitalists and
all slacking. and ,loaflpg -'..Whe by
individual action or as q result Of
union action s
Colonel Roosevelt said she would
keep just; as far from Bolshevism as
from Kaiserism." In this country, he
said, the he"Germanized socialists" have
shown themselves as enemies of the
republic and should not be permit
ted to be at large while the republic is
at death grips with foreign foe. He
declared persons guilty of serious dis
loyalty should be put to death. He
also said a free press and free speech
were the foundation stones Of self
government by a free people.

Impressive Services Held at
Capital to Launch the

Washington, Sept. 2s.-Ameri-
ca today set itself to the task of
raising loan of $e,ooo,o0o,0o0 in
three weeks.
Although this was twice the
minimum of any previous Liber--
ty Loan and by far the greatest
war credit ever undertaken by
any nation, treasury department
officials were certain that the
sum would be over-subscribed.
Their confidence was expressed
in the announcement that the sur
plus would be allotted.
Officials felt that it was a fa-
vorable augury for the Fourth
Liberty loan that the campaign
got under way just when the
American army was pressing for
ward in great offensive in
France, and Bulgaria was suing
for peace, starting. tn. long ex-
pected disintegration Of the CEN
trail powers. :
Subscriptions to the loan be-
gan pouring in today at all: fed
eral reserve banks. Many COM
munities had oversubscribed their
quotas even before the campaign
had began. Thousands of work
ers were out early and in practic-
ally every city, town and hamlet

the drive. Posters everywhere ex-

CHANGE EFFECTED ON THE
WESTERN FRONT RARELY
EQUALLED IN HISTORY

With the French Army in France,
Aug. 13.-After the battle of the
Avre, the situation of the belliger-
i.ents presents change which for ra-
pidlty and extent has rarely been ap-
preached in military history. Mar
shall Foch's strategy and the mastery
tactics of the generals commanding
the armies under him have in three
weeks wrested from the Germans
what required four months for them
o obtain at cost variously estimated
1T from 100000 to 100000 men.
The immediate results of the coun-
ser-offensive which will have the
:reatest bearing on subsequent oper-
atoms are the clearing of the Cha
;eau-Thierry pocket, ending the men
ace to Epernay and Paris; the liber-
alton of Montdidier, ending the men
ace to Amiens; the freeing of the
Important eastern railroad line from
'aris to Chalons, and the equally i'm
oortant northern line from Paris to
amiens, restoring to the allies means
If communication which give them
enormously greater ease in future
movements of troops.
These successes render impossible
my rupture of the line which would
separate the French armies of the
center from those of the east, or a
'upture of the junction between the
'rcnch and British The most dis
tstrous consequences to the Germans.
rside from the heavy losses they sus-
aimed in men and material is the
collapse of their plan to drive wedges
nto the allied lines and the Substar-
ial widening and joining which have
threatened general dislocation.
Marshal Foch's strategy in reduc-
ng the salient wedges wrested the in
tiative in operations from the Ger
mans, at once obliging them either
% order a general retreat to a strong
inc such as the Somme. or to engage
reserves. The enemy adopted the
second alternative, which having fail
ID, makes eventual retirement inn
lensely more difficult.
The first phase of the battle of the
\vre finds the French with footing
lpon 1h!escourt plateau, west of
logon, which has vital Importance in
-'uture operations.-The Germans must
,ither recapture the position, at high
:ost, If he can, or abandon Noycn,
'hich means the fall of Roye and
.-assigny, which already are under
imminent menace of capture.

FOOD CONSERVATION
AND HEALTH CAMPAIGN

A good deal of interest is being
ta..en in the Food Conservation and
Preservation and Health Campaign
that will be put on for the next two
weeks by the Government Demonstra-
tion Agents and the County Council
of Defense.
Very few people realize that prob
ably one-half of the doctors will be
taien to the war during the next
year and that the teaching of methods
that will prevent disease is matter
thit is a timely one. With the doc
tors gone it will be more important
than ever that diseases be prevented.
Prof. w. P. Coker, who is we'll
known lecturer, was the official dele
g..,e to the Health Institute in CO.
luSMb!a recently and he will carry
to the people at these meetings the
message that he has been taught by
iSauinS ekpeTIS.
Tn Food Conservation and Pre-
servstion part of this campaign will
be in charge of Major w. J. Tiller
and Misses Stella Minis and Rosa
Pcgues, the Home Demons ration
Agents. Practical demonstrations in
GINNING and preserving will be given
by these experts. Major Tiller will
discuss seed wheat and other phases
of farm work, including the shortage
of labor the next year. Many more
will be taken for the army and yet
the farms must be run--the remedy
will be more intensive cultivation.
In connection with the Food and
Health car:pa:gn a patriotic address
will be delivered at each of these
meetings by representative Of the
County Council of Defense. The peo-
pie of their respective communities
are urged TO attend these meetings
Basket dinners will be served, but
the ladies are requested to prepare no
sweets. The meetings will open each
day at IL o'clock in the morning and
there will be both morning and after
noon sessions.
The schedule is as follows:
Macedonia, Tuesday, Aug. goth.
