Situation Exists in Europe Under
Which War May Break Out Again.

that as result of the allied discus
siOns in Paris, the whole aspect OF
rehabilitation has undergone sud
den and vital change, this being shown
in the drastic conditions demanded of
Germany for renewal of the armis.
tee.
"On authority of an. unimpeachable
character" says the Central News, ut
can be stated that situation exists in
Europe under which war may break
out again at any moment. The allied
war council has arrived at decision
which means that the British people
have mistaken the appearance of peace
for reality. This decision means that
the new British ministry must revise
the whole scheme of army demobiliza-
ton.
The decision 10 that Great Britain,
In proportion to Its military strength,
must maintain an army Of occupation
on the Rhine for many months. If the
rapid increase In rehabilitation re
Gently announced were continued, there
would in a few months be no army
In France to undertake the obligations
placed upon British shoulders.

Strike That Failed.

Labor strikes were frequent even
in the earliest recorded days. An
important strike occurred in Egypt
during the reign Of Cheops, several
thousand years before the Christian
era. While the great pyramid
erected in honor Of that monarch was
in course of construction 1t is stated
that $4,000 workmen refused to con-
tinue their labors. They were dis
satisfied with the food furnished to
them, which was insufficient In guam
tity and poor in quality. Argument
proving useless on the part Of the
contractors, soldiers were ordered to
drive the strikers back to work, and
many thousands Of them were cut to
pieces, while those who could escape
fed. The others were compelled to re-
sumo their labor.

 When Julekburg started the movement to construct the light and water plants. it had a popu- Iation of less than one-half that of Holbrook. Today it has a population of twice that of Hol- brook, and the chief factor of the growth was that all public utilities are owned by the munic- ipality. and the rates charged for service are very low.

Why Don't You
 Learn Shorthand ?

Why don't you learn short hand? You can do it in some of the spare time you are wasting. Every human being ought to have some sort of craft by which, in pinch, he can earn living. He ought to be able to do some kind of work for which the world is willing to pay money. Com petent stenographers have no difficulty in securing good posi- tions at salaries ranging from S125 to $175 per month. while private secretaries and court re- porters are in demand at salaries from S15o>to $4O0 per month.
 Also She.
 For no matter what a girls circumstances, she should master some trade or occupation where by she can support herself in in dependence.
 To know shorthand is better than having your rich uncle leave you ten thousand. dollars. You might lose the money. and you probably would spend it, or some one would get it away from you, but a knowledge of shorthand is a treasurer that moth nor rust doth not corrupt nor thieve break through and steal. ;
 There is hardly any business in which you may engage where shorthand is not to be found use- ful. If you are a college or high school student, learn shorthand. If you are clerk or salesman or bookkeeper, learn shorthand. You can find idle time enough. If you are young lady at home, learn shorthand. You never know what will happen. Short hand is one of those valuable ac- lcomplishments that any intelli- gent person can pick up, if he or she only has a little grit and stick-to-itiveness.
 Anyone who has the ambition to do something worth while. need have no further excuse if they fail to take advantage o1 the liberal offer which is made herein. and it may be to your everlasting interest to read every word carefully and thoughtfullY, for the acceptance will undoubt- edly lead to something better than that which you now have. It will at least mean that during the remainder of our life you will possess one thing that will al ways enable you to earn a good living regardless of where you may be.
 The Course: (PersonaIinstruc- tion)
 Beginning Wednesday even ing, January 8th, you will be given two hours instruction in Pltmantic Shorthand (Pitmantic Shorthand is used by 91.2 per cent of all American official court reporters, by 77.3 per cent of all stenographers and reporters in the Government Departments; besides being taught in the lead ing business schools and by hund- reds of high schools throughout America). Instruction will be given Monday. Wednesday and Friday evenings of each week at seven o'clock. Individual in- struction will be given on the principles of shorthand; students will not necessarily be put into classes upon enrolment: one may enroll at any time and for all practical purposes be in a class by himself or herself.
 Qualifications:
 Any person of fair education willing to put forth the effort. is qualified to enroll.
 Tuition rates:
 Rate per month in advance (Twelve lessons) $8. %.
 CORRESPONDENTS INSTRUCTIONS
 For those desiring instructions by correspondence. twenty care fully prepared lessons have been arranged, which constitute a complete system of shorthand for commercial purposes. The student will be required to sub-
