We point with pride to our splen. did educational facilities in Lake- land, not only us to commodious and sanitary school buildings, but to our faculty which consists of ag intelli gent a body of teachers as may be found in any town in the State.

GERMANY THIS WILL BE A RETALIATORY MEASURE ON THE PART OF GREAT BRITAIN PRESIDENT HAS RECEIVED REPLIES IFrom Germany and England, Which Are Couched in Friendly Terms; Germans Are Fighting the Allies in the West (By Associated Press.) London, Féb. 20.—It ig expected that England will promulgate a de cree today declaring that all food for Germany is contraband. This is a retaliatory measure. It is thought that the British reply to the United States regarding the steamer Wil- helmina presages such a course. England hopes that neutrals will not object. German movements in the east were the chief military feature to- day. The Russians think that Von Hindenburg is trying to flank War- saw from the north and believe it is a daring, dangerous undertaking unless he has an overwhelming army. The Russians have checked the German advance in East Prus. sla. The Germans are hammering the allies in the west. No advance is reported. The Russlans and Aus- trians are developing a decisive bat- tle in Bukowina. —— President Receives Replies of Enge land and Germany (By Assoclated Press.)
