ALWAYS TINE

Time Is always coming.
But it always goes away.
It never seems to linger,
But returns again, another day!
It Is not the same old time,
Only another little space,
OF which there seems no end,
On this great terrestrial race.
We're constantly awaiting
For more time to come along.
There surely cannot be an end,
For nothing ever does go wrong.
There's a time for us to work,
And a time in which to play,
A time to do some good,
As we pass along the way.
It's best to keep ADDING
Something better all the time,
Then we can be happy
With our deeds almost divine.

Sees Hitler Miss
Fate Of Napoleon
Military Experts View
Reasons for Germany's
Stand in Russia

LONDON, March II. (UP)
Adolf Hitler has escaped
for this wintcr-the fate
of Napoleon in the SHOWS of
Russia.
That is the frank, realistic viCy
of the winter war in Russia as ex-
pressed by responsible military cir
cleS which attribute Hitler'S escape
to good supply system and an
ingenious method Of establishing
defensive strong points known as
hedge hogs" or "porcupineS.
The great Red army winter Of
fensive has been the outstanding
Allied success of the war to date
and it has smashed the Nazi plan
of conquest to an extent that may
not yet be even Indicated
But as spring approaches, here
is how the experts sum up the best
available information regarding the
eastern front:
l. The Russians in three months
have regained about one-tenth of
the territory invaded by the Nazis
whereas in 1912 the grand army of
Napoleon was crushed, frozen, SLASH
ed to shreds and driven from Rus
sian soil long before March.

2. Hitler still holds four or five
vital strong points which furious
Russian pounding may yet destroy
and thus bring disaster to the Nazis.
3. The Germans have lost pos
sibly 100000 men including a con-
servatively- estimated 100000 dead
up to the time Hitler's offensive was
halted for the winter but both tn,
Nazis and the SovietG are believed
to have armies of four or five mil.
