The exact result OF the campaign
probably will not be known until l;hc

Cambria Falls.

Terrific drives are being made on
the western front by six great armies
under Marshal Foch along a line ex-
tending more than 100 miles. Cam
brai, one tlof Germany's most impor-
tant strongholds, has fallen and the
enemy is being pushed back toward
the frontier. The Hindenburg line,
so far as menace is concerned, no
longer exists. Thousands Of prison
ers were taken and much war material
when the Germans were forced out of
Cambria by the Anglo-American
armies.
The heaviest attack is seemingly
being made on a front Of 80 miles
from northwest of Cambria to east of
St. Quentin and the Huns are scam
pering Rhineward pursued by baby
tanks, which are moving them down
by hundreds. The enemy is reported
to have no prepared defenses in the
central theater of war until they
reach a line Immediately east Of the
frontier.
German resistance is stiffening
along the front east of Rheims but not
sufficient to stop the steady advance
of Generals Gouraud and Berthelot.
Hun losses are enormous. AS an
instance, in single sector Of the
Anglo-American front three fresh
Hun divisions thrown into the war
furnace melted away in few moments

cal Critic and Guide, gives the tele-
brated advice once rendered by
Punch "to young people about to
marry" namely, Don't .'' The coun-
sci often given to those Of advancing
Years. even by physicians, to- take
things easier" to give up this. and
give up that-in short, to lead q dull,
empty, vegetable existence, is unqual-
ifiedly bad, Doctor Robinson thinks,
although, Of course, there are excep-
tions and special cases. He writes !
An old man with q very high blood
pressure e., high for his age
should not engage in business which
is likely to cause him great excite
ment, and throw him in fits Of anger !;
and a man who Is showing symptoms
Of senile dementia should not be In
trusted with important affairs; but,
generally speaking, there is no rea-
son why man should give up his
work or narrow the circle Of his in
terests, merely because he has cele-
brated the SEVENTEEN or eightieth an
sniversary of his birthday. sThe gem
aeral condition of the man, his fitness,
should be the criterion, and not his
age in years. We all know that some
people at sixty are actually older.
than some are at seventy or eighty.
s"The advice to old men to retire
has sometimes. if followed, very dis
astrous consequences. "A man Of sew
enty or eighty is attending to his pro-
fession or business in satisfactory
manner, and he feels well. Suddenly
he decides or is advised to retire and
take things easy for the rest of his
days. He does and in few weeks
or months that man is a physical or
mental wreck. and ruin. AS long as
he kept up his mental interests he
was all right. A sudden change, a
sudden vacuum, might say, perhaps
the pernicious subconscious feeling
that now it is all over for him all
that contributed to the disaster And
it is not the physical change So much
as the mental that is the important
factor. /. for one, am sure that men
tai activity, mental interest, has a
life-prolonging influence, because
imental activity stimulates many, if
not all, Of our vital processes. Its
not mental work that ever kills lit

baneful influence has been greatly; ex-
aggerated. We know of octogena-

To Cooperate With Draft Board

Inc new SelecC1Ve service fegula-
tions provide for three advisors for
each district draft board, the agricul-
tural adviser to- be nominated by the
United States department of agricul-
ture. This adviser places before the
board facts and information as re-
quested by the board or furnished by
persons representing registrants. He
has full access to questionnaires and
other records Of local boards. The adj
wiser of this district has called upon
the farm bureau Of Mile Laos county
to place itself in position for best CO.
operation, and the executive commit
tee at a. meeting Monday night
worked out the following plan:
The farm bureau will attempt to do
four things: az To furnish such in
formation to the agricultural adviser
concerning local labor conditions and
classification Of. registrants as he may
desire. ~ To inform registrants
and employers of agricultural labor Of
the wishes Of the government in re-
spect to deferred classification on
agricultural grounds. (3) To make
recommendations for deferred CLASH
.fcation Of registrants where such
claim has not previously been made
if it appears that such persons are
contributing substantially and ma
terially as, farmers. az To investi-
gate and make recommendations to
the agricultural adviser of the dis
trict board in behalf and at the, re-
quest of registrants or employers.
Charles Heilig, Elmer Samuelson and
DR.. c. P. Gibson were nominated as
the central committee to pass on all
requests and recommendations, while
the persons named below have been
nominated as local committeeman to
refer to the central committee such
eases as may come to their attention
and to furnish information needed:

The farm bureau organization can
be of great service if all cooperate.
Requests by the agricultural adviser
will be taken care of as received. Re
quests by registrants and employers
Of agricultural labor will be consid-
cred as rapidly as possible in the order
these are made. Correspondence to
the central committee for the present
should be mailed to the county agent,
as the farm bureau office will be the
meeting place Of such committee. The
organization comes by request and ex-
lists only for the purpose of serving
and promoting the national interest.
Its purpose is to cooperate fully with
the local board at Princeton.
