Russia ProcIaims Series Smashing Victories on Eastern Front While
 British Apply Pressure In Africa

UNDATED, Dec. F (H) - Rus sia proclaimed a series of smash ing new victories in the war with Germany and for the first time, Hitler's command wryly acknowledged that German in- vasion armies are shortening their lines along the Soviet front and in the hard-pressed defens- i've in North Africa. In perhaps the gloomiest Nazi communique of the entire war, giving the Ger man people at least an inkling that the tide of conquest has been thrown into reverse, the command reported, Tn the course of transition from aggres- slve operations to stationary war fare during the winter months, necessary improvements involv- ing the shortening of lines, are now being systematically under taken in various sections of the eastern front"
 But Soviet dispatches pictured the Germans in headlong flight, and by no means affecting a strat egic withdrawal, a Moscow com munique declaring, The fleeing enemy is being pursued and an- initiated by our troops
 Russians Recapture Kalinin
 Red Army soldiers who recap tured strategic Kalinin, 95 miles northwest of Moscow, were said to have found that German troops had built four-tiered blank beds in houses throughout the Kalinin zone, "evidently in tending to spend the winter there"
 On the North African front, British headquarters reported that heavy British pressure is being maintained on the left flank of Hitler's battered desert armies and new progress was registered despite fierce sand storms during the past 24 hours.
 Italians May Be Pulling Out

We didn't have a hen at all
And ma, she said she thought
That we should also some chickens
And pa said, too, we ought.
SO one day several months ago
They got a plain old hen
1t was box and had lamp
We started it and then
One day some little chickens came
A dozen - two were mine:
fed and | took care of them
They got along just fine.
The one gave the name of
Floss"
The other | called pete;
They learned to come when | called
them,
Their crumbs and meal to eat.
And Floss" and pete" and were
friends,
But not, alas, for ALL
| found | made a great mistake
"Floss" is no hen at all.
And pete, he is no rooster, sure;
1t seems so queer to see
A rooster come when | call Floss"
That "Pete" a hen should be.

The responsibility of the home re-
garding liquor is primarily that OF
providing a place for children to
grow up under proper principles
and practice. That means that the
home should be a Christian home,
where both parents follow Christ in
life as well as profession. Young
people about to establish a new
home should give themselves With
out reservation to Christ. Those
who began their home as Chris
: tan home. but who have drlfted
through carelessness or unbellef,
should renew their devotion to
Christ. America needs many
things, but first and foremost stands
it's need of real Christian homes.
