Skierniewice, the important railway point southeast of Lowicz, has prac- tically been abandoned by the Rus- sians. The Germans are in partial posaes- sion of both railways leading to War- saw from the west and southwest, but by their attacks beyond Rawa it is evident the Russians are endeavor- ing to swing the main point of con- tact of the vast engagement in Poland further south to avoid all possibility of being cornered- between the for- tress of Warsaw and Novo Georgievsk and the Vistula. The Germans have been repulsed in their efforts to drive an opening in the Russian line along the Bzura river. The army of Field Marshal von Hin- denburg is declared to have made lit- tle progress toward the city of Soz- shaw, GAINS FOR ALLIED FORCES Parig-Says Germans Have Evacuated Middlekirke. Paris, Dec. 23.—After two weeks’ fighting in an effort to maintain their hold on the Belgian coast the Ger- mans are reported to have evacuated Middlekirke, north of Ostend. - Unconfirmed reports declare their line has been thrown even farther back and that Ostend has been evact uated. The coast towns of Zeebrugge and | Hayste have been vigorously bom- barded by the allied ships within the past two days. This has been in sup- port of the general movement to clear the coast, while the’ French and Brit- ish in the Dixmude and Ypres region are forcing the Germans back upon the Bruges-Roulers-Courtrai line. BURGLAR KILLS ATTORNEY Los Angeles naire Shot by Prowiers in His Home.

When he wanted to write a letter he didn’t—he just sent for the girl. Sol wasn’t much for correspondence. ‘With Josephus it was different. Joe didn’t have the coin Sol had, so he had to write. It’s cheaper to write, but possibly not so safe. s ‘When Joe wanted to ‘‘correspond” with a maiden in a nearby town all he had to do was to go to the quarry, get himself a slab of stone, smooth it down and seratch on it his message. Then a couple of slaves and a team of oriental cows would make a special delivery. Thus we have it on Josephus. We can get stationery prettier than our message. His stationery was crude. To get good results one must use a carrier equal to the quality of the message. You send a letter because you can’t go yourself. The letter must be a worthy representative. Once we heard of a perfectly charming young tightwad losing a chance to marry a beautiful girl and sixty acres of regular black potato land because he wrote on this sott‘, bumpy paper with lines on it and used a number six slick envelope. She read the Woman’s Home Companion regularly, and had taken seventeen lessons on the organ, and wore these sectional skirts which once in a while scares a man so—making him think she’s forgot the last section. She knew. He used the wrong stationery. It won’t work. “Class” demands You can’t fool anyone—you just think you do. We are eternally showing ourselves up. Stationery i one of the billboards of life.
