 Chancellor Bauer, in a statement to the press today, said:
 Germany finds herself in a critf- cal position similar to that when confronted with the question wheth- CT she would sign the peace treaty or not. Then, as now, the govern n.ent tried to reject the so-caTfed clauses of honor
 "A majority of the assembly voted in favor of signing the treaty on June 22, 1918, presuming that these clauses would not become effective. Their ef- forts were unsuccessful and under pressure Of the threatened occupation of Germany they resolved to accept the treaty in it's entirety.
 There was no lack of sense of na tional honor. It was known that l France 1onged for an opportunity foi | her troops to enter Germany for the l purpose. of separating the north from 1 the south. It was an act of self 1 preservation that we did not desitate to sign.
 Meanwhile, we left no stone un. i turned to procure a satisfactory so. 1 lution of the question relating to the handing over of the persons demand i ed. and we have done our utmost tc convince the entente that we are ex- nected to do what no government though animated by the best good. will could comply with.

Owing to the snowstorm which be- gan "Wednesday night and continuing all day Thursday the trolleys coming and going through the village en- countered considerable difficulty. Many of the villagers decided it would be better to stay home than to wait for the trolley to take them to work as there was no telling when one of these conveyances would ap- pear. The same was in the case of the buses which had more trouble than the trelleys as the coating of ice which was under the snow caused the wheels too slip around and stall the car until some ashes or sand was put underneath the wheels.
 The influenza epidemic is stiu pre- va&ling through the village but not to any great extent, also several new eases of grip have developed during the past week. The two pItb- lie nurses which are employed by the
