Madrid, Aug. 24.--(UPD--dovern. ment leaders, admitting that they oppose strong, determined enemies on more than a dozen active fronts, expressed firm confidence today that their fortunes are on the ascendant and that they will crush the rebel' lion.
 It was said officially that there had been no change of importance on any front during the week end.
 It was admitted that the loyal ists had suffered Bct backs in the Estremadura country southwest of Madrid and it was said that the loy- aliSt militia investing Cordoba had closed in on It's objective.
 Aside from that the principal Rc. tivity was consolidation of defensive positoins.
 Most Important Front
 The Estremadura front has become the most important one for the time being. A strong loyalLst column sent from Madrid--the "phantorr column" recruited at Valencia--took duhdelupe, but was drive nout.
 Here both loyalists and rebels real- ly are on the attack, and the stake B the railroad line which, running from BadajoS on the frontier Merida, then splits and runs in two semi- circular loops northeastward to Madrid.
 Government leaders regard the re. moVal Of rebel northern headquar- tcrs from BurgoS to Valladolid no: as a sign of strength but as one Of caution.
 With rebels and loyallstS both claiming victory, the fact seems to be that the issue remains absolutely in doubt and that no big scale bat tie has been developed.

Warned On Kiss
Without Leave

London.-British males have
been warned not to kiss any lady
of any age without her permission
Even a harmless peck on the
cheek, given to a girl aged four
without her consent, may lead to a
court case, the n,.n have been told
1t all came about when Frank
McC ullough, Dundee, Scotland:
picked up a child who asked him
for a penny, kissed her, gave he1
the penny-and found himself be-
fore the Fiscal in Dun
dee Sheriff's Court accused Of
common attack.
Sheriff Malcolm heard it all and
admonished cCullough, handed
down a Solomon-like judgment.
even young ladies may object
to being kissed without their per-
mission. My warning to you is not
to kiss any lady Of any age with
out her consent"
Lawyers queried whether in legal
parlance a child of four could give
her consent, and figured it might
need a high court to settle that.

When a Japanese goes to see ar
American picture, or any foreign
movie, not being able to understand
the language spoken, he reads the
dialogue in Japanese, the character:
being projected on a little screen
placed on the right of the large
screen, In this manner, the Japa-
nese enjoys the movie as it is pre-
sented on the screen.
As the people of America enjoy
movies, so the Japanese enjoy them
although, at times, the movies
do arrive rather late.
Editors note: Mr.. Stoudt, a fresh.
man, has spent over fifteen year
in Japan, and therefore, he know
the Japanese as we'll as he know
