The WOMAN'S CLUB CLOSES
TWO YEARS EARNEST WORK
Study of Household Economics Has
Been of Great Benefit. Officers
Elected For Another Year.

The meeting of the Woman's Club
on Saturday afternoon at their Log
Cabin closed two years of earnest
work, and the practical study of
household economies has meant a
vast deal more than pleasant pastime.
The object of those taking the
course has been the demonstration
in the home of those things that
make for better family life. Mrs.
Guy Chappell and those who have
co-operated so splendidly with her
have held the club up to high stand
ard.
The Indebtedness on the club prop
erty has been greatly decreased, and
will be entirely wiped out by the wise
planning of the finance committee.
The club endorsed the victory loan
launched by the federation, and each
member will be asked to contribute
one dollar to the fund. After the
transaction of business and the read
ing of the various reports of club
activities ice cream and cake were
served.
The following is the list of officers
elected to serve another year: Pres
ident, Mrs. D. C. Pickett; first vice
president, Mrs. w. H. Gurr; second
vice president, Mrs. l. P. Cooke; re-
cording secretary, Miss Nellie Laing
corresponding secretary, Mrs. w. B.

ALLIES ARE PATIENT:
CONFIDENT OF HOLDING
BRITISH AND FRENCH BELIEVE
THEY HAVE MEASURE OF
THE GERMAN ARMY.

The situation of the allied armies
on the western front grows better
every week. 1t is now two months
since Won Hindenburg began his
boosted victory offensive" in north
ern France, but so far he has nothing
to show for his operations but two
positions strategically unsound and a
casualty list that has astounded all
Germany. No one in military circles
In London or Paris believes that the
Germans have been stopped finally,
but there is rapidly growing opin-
ion that the enemy has been punish
ed much more severely than has been
thought probable on this side of the
battle line. The Germans undoubted-
ly have one big punch" left, and it
is equally certain that they are en-
gagged in preparing this punch" at
the present time. But Foch, Haig and
Petain are confident that the coming
blow will be parried easier and more
quickly than the first one.
A Week of Preparation.
Infantry fighting of more or less
local nature has been the order of
the week on the western front, al
though both the artillery and aerial
arms have been active. The Germans
still are busily engaged in "consoh-
dating" the positions won in the
Amiens and the Armentieres salients
and in bringing up artillery, ammu-
milton and fresh troops for contin-
uation of their drive to the sea. The
British and French troops have been
just as busy on defensive prepara-
tions, and each day witnesses the
Strengthening of the line before
which the Germans have been pinned
to earth.
Indications, too, are multiplying
that Germany's position in the East
is not only unstable, but actually
threatening. The Russian bolsheviki
are dissatisfied over the constant de-
mands made by Berlin, and especial
~ the German attempts to prevent
the formation of a Slav army.
In the Ukraine the situation is even
more disturbing to the Germans.
There is a growing anti-German SEN
timent because of the repressive
measures practiced by the Teutons,
and to meet this it has been neces-
sary to send additional German
troops, especially cavalry and ma
chine gun detachments, from the
western front, a move which Ger
many can i'll afford to make at the
present time.
