YANKS TAKE KADISH
Americans Recapture Village and
Push Their Lines Ahead.

Archangel. Dec. 81. (delayed}@
American troops have recaptured the
village OF Kadish on the middle Sec
tor of the northern Russian front and
today pushed forward their lines a
distance of two miles south of the viii
lage in the direction of Vologda.
Allied Troops Ahead.
This winters push. which was
against strong resistance was UNDER
taken simultaneously with a move
ment southwark by the allied troops
along the Omega river. The Omega
column rested today at the village of
Gogoli.
The re-capture of Kadish was mark
ed by some heavy fighting in which,
however. the American casualties were
light. This village which is located
about midway between the yologda
railway and the Dvina river, was
strongly defended and the Bolsheviki
there used the blockhouses built by
the Americans and British when they
occupied the town in November prior
to being driven out by large forces
of the Bolsheviki.
Beginning Monday morning with
an artillery attack, the Americans sd-
vanced across the frozen Emtsa river
where their positions have for more
than a month been located in icy
dugouts on the bank of the stream.
bordering the destroyed bridge at the
crossing of the Petrograd road. They
crossed the stream ana cleared the
Bolshevikf trenches and machine gun
empla dement's on the oppisite bank.
The Americans then pushed forward
two miles to the village, fighting their
Iay under the protection of Canadian
artillery which was able to place shells
almost at will in Kadish. The fur
clad American thanking parties in the
frozen swamps bordering on the road
contributed materially to the Ameri-
can success. The recapture of Kadish
gives the American, troops a good
winter position in the blockhouses
they have built. Since the retirement
from the town early in November the
troops on this sector had virtually
no shelter. the front lines being unable
to build fires for fear of the artillery
and snipers on the opposite bank OF
the narrow Emtsa river.
Preparation for the attack on
Kadish was carried out under eondi-
tions met with nowhere except in q
semi arctic wilderness. A battery of
heavy howitzers had to be brought on
sleighs eighty miles on a rough trail
. thru the wilderness.

WEALTH LIES tx SON

Joseph Hirsch, Chairman Of the
Agriculture Commission Of the Amer
lean Bankers Association, recently
said at meeting In Washington, ID. C.
Americas wealth lies In her soil.
To conserve and to further develop
this, our greatest national resources,
to increase the prosperity Of the farm
ers, who are the nations chief pro-
ducers OF wealth, and to provide better
educational facilities and better living
conditions for the farm children-our
farmers Of the future-constitute the
mission of the Agricultural Commits
sion of the American aBnkers associa-
ton. To these ends, invite your
hearty cooperation, and trust that the
deliberations Of the conference will
bear good fruit"
This attitude on the part Of the
leading bankers of America, will re-
make the profession of farming in the
United States in the very near future.
D.. .l9ronters-DN. Tad VBGr CWYYYY
At this meeting a big, broad and
comprehensive Declaration was de-
veloped and adopted by the bankers
present. In referring to club work,
the Declaration says:
"This conference bespeaks for the
boys and girls of the open country the
continued and increased interest of the
banker, as manifested in numerous
club activities in the past.
Nothing should be left undone to
make the farm profitable and likable
for the generation that is to occupy it
1t is suggested that some of the drift
to city can be averted by recognition
of the farm boy that involves making
him partner of his father.

HOTELS AND ROOMING
HOUSES A RE FILLED
TO FULL CAPA CITY

The hotels and rooming houses in
this city are running over and many
Of the oil field visitors are room hunt
ing today in the residence districts of
the city.
Until such time as the new hotel
throws open its doors to the public
this city will not be able to comfortably
care for its visitors unless the people
Of the city who have spare rooms open
them to the public.
Where families do not need the rev
enues that come from renting rooms
they owe it to their city at this time
to spare room or two for these peo-
pie
There are men here who have had
to move their families to other towns
where they could get homes for them.
There are others who are among our
best citizens whose homes have been
sold from under them and they can
not get other homes for love or money.
The housing problem in Ardmore
deserves the attention Of our people.
There are many men who will not
build for the reason that they fear
that a home will cost $1,000 now will
not be worth that much i'm a year or SO
but if they knew that material would
not get cheaper and that labor would
not be reduced they would build homes
now.
Labor is not going to get cheaper.
If there is a change, that commodity
will so higher insc,ad Of lower and
the same thing can be said of building
material.
During the life Of this generation
there win not be a better time to
build than now ana our people had as
well TO get use to high building prices
now as later
If We are going to have "a city here
we must house our people.
There is no use in maintaining a
Chamber of Commerce, there is no use
to invite our friends to move to Ard
more we had as well fold our hands
and bury our enthusiasm if our city
has grown to its limit.
We have plenty of building sites,
plenty Of labor ana plenty of material
and there is a man waiting with open
purse to take every home that is com
pleted.
The greatest service you can render
your home city today is to start q con.
struction work ON a home.
County superintendent Coffman will
conduct u teachers training course here
in the high school auditorium from Oc-
tober ~ to IS inclusive. II is expected
that there will be as many as - teach
ers in the city during this six day
period and Prof. Coflman is worried
about housing conditions for these Wis.
iting teachers.
The good people Of Ardmorc are APP
pealed to in this instance to open their
homes for these people. Those who can
spare bed rooms are asked kindly to
phone the office of the county super
intendent and state how many teach
ers you can care for.

pie. Our city must not suffer even if
