Berlin, Nov. 20.—(Via London.)— Roumania’s failure to withstand the Austro-German offensive in Transyl- vania is to be ascribed, according to Joseph Wirth, correspondent of the Lokal Anzeiger, principally to the lack of high trajectory and mountain artillery and to inferior leadership. The subsidiary causes, the corre- spondent says, are the lack of barbed wire for entanglements, the adher- ence to old style Russian trenches that cave in disastrously with the ar- rival of the first shell, and the lack of equipment for.many of the troops, as well as telephone material, wagons and aviators. The correspondent continues: “The Roumanians have not even adopted the almost universal trans- * portable kitchen wagon, but still are carrying food to the troops at the] front in cans stowed on lumbering wagons. “The Roumanians fight far better when defending their own territory than when on the offensive. They looked for a short, decisive campaign, and were unprepared for a long fight. “The Roumanian officers all carry and study religiously a general staff book on lessons learned from the war, but they seem to be unable to apply them practically.” Will Ask Congress- To Pass Amendment On Direct Voting Portland, Ore., Nov. 20.—Senator George E. Chamberlain, who left to- night for Washington, announced that HAPPENINGS IN THE MAGIC CITY Rev)MR. L. Wheeler Discusses Prospects of His Congrega- tion Getting to Heaven. MAYOR ANNOUNCES CLERK What sort of people will get to Heaven and what sort won't, was in substance the subject of Dr. R. L. Wheeler's sermon Sunday morning at the Wheeler Memorial church. Dr. Wheeler denounced infidelity of church members today referring to the Apostie Paui, who aiter con- version, really “practiced what he preached.” “I have seen many of you men,” the pastor said, “leave the grave of your wife, mother or children with tears in your eyes, realizing the great wrongs of the world and your own guilt, make promises to live a better life, and yet you never have. All of you fall into the same practice doing at the coming session of congress herleither what the Savior had preached n will introdd¢e a proposed constitu- tional amendment providing for the election of president by direct vote of the people. ‘His intentlen, he said, is to get the amendment under way promptly, so that it may be acted on by congress and, if adopted there, by the legislatures of the various states in time to become effective for the next presidential election. “The recent election demonstrated more strongly than ever the desira- bility of electing the president by direct vote,” said Senator Chamber- lain. “If five thousand votes in Cali- fornia had been changed that state would have gone for Hughes and he would have been elected, notwith- standing 400,000 more votes were cast in the nation for Wilson than for Hughes. Another time the present system might wotk-td the. disadvan- tage of the other party.” Senator Chamberlain, who s chairman of the senate committee on military affairs, said he would also at the coming session put forward a measure providing for universal mili- tary service. _ Favors Are Shown to Soldiers Who Have Number of Children Berlin, Nov. 20.—(By Wirel¢ss to Sayville—Lieutenant General von Stein, the German war minister, to- day announced that in future special consideration would be given to sol- diers, whose families had already suffered heavy losses by the war. Likewise fathers of several children would not, if possible, be employed permanently in the first line. i Owner May Have Jug If He Will Return Car IS An unscrupulous thief who appar- ently believes that any kind of an ex- change is a fair trade if you get away with it, swapped an empty brown jug for one perfeetly good flivver belong- ing to Glen W. Smith, assistant cashier of the State Bank of Omaha, but it was without Mr. Smith’s per- mission. The miscreant pried his way into Mr. Smith’s garage at the rear of his home at 5407 Florence boule- vard, chiseling the guarding lock, and chiseled a second Yale lock on the car. He brought the brown jug along filled with water to fill up the car’s radiator. In getting the tar out the thief woke up the family next door, which called Mr. Smith, who in turn called the police. The thief got away, however, but he had to make such a speedy departure that he left the brown jug behind. Mr. Smith says he is willing to return the jug if the owner would call for it. Five Boys Drown in Minnesota Slough Hastings, Minn., Nov. 20.—Five boys, Allen Gillett, 8 years old; Lyle Lorentz, 8; Edward Wiss, 10; fiis brother Lester, 7, and Gordon Fisher, 11, were drowned in a slough a short distance from here today. Appar- ently the boys had walked out on the e and had broken through. or improving on your former con- duct. The fact of the matter is that this world has become so ridden by commercialism, the love for money, that the church stands in uncertain position. “I am myself a thousand leagues from the gates of Heaven if the distance could be estimated. Yet we ministers are ‘builders on the wall’ We' build and build, hope and hope until our hearts are worn to nothing. The inaction of unbelief has made our problem harder yet ever ‘we are build- ers on the wall” And so you must be. “God Almighty gave the peoples of the earth thi world. They are his gift. He created them. We only make the things we have. It is only by sin that a few come to have much and the many to have little. So I say unto you forget your~thought of commercialism and come unto Christ for he can give you rest.” Learn to Blow Glass. Glass blowing is one of the ufiique arts that students of the chemistry classes of the night high school are becoming familiar with. Prof. F. R. Vosacek, instructor of the class-dem- onstrated with a long tube last week and students followed suit. The glas: ware that resulted was comical in the extreme. Practice For Big Game.

Wheeler Appointed Clerk. Perry Wheeler, popular local attor- ney and former principal of the South High school, has accepted the offer of Mayor Dahlman to be clerk of the South Side police court in the place of Jerry Fitzgerald, who is now county assessor-elect. The mayor made a propostion to Wheeler before election that if Jerry was elected he could have the place if he wanted it. Perry lost no time in accepting. He was city clerk of South Omaha be- fore annexation. Society Notes.

Tkae 1 tablespoonful four imes a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head noises. Clogged nostrils should open, breath- ing become easy and the mucus stop dropping into the throat. It is easy to prepare, costs little and is pleasant to take.

The church never had finer equipment, better organization, more able min- isters than it has today, and I be- lieve more people are attending church today than ever before. Espe- cially noticeable is the increased in- terest among men. The fact re- mains that the majority of the peo- ple do not attend. “The great variety of amusements which are open on Sunday is, per- haps, partly responsible for small church attendance. But the great reason is that people do not want to attend. They seek excuses for re- maining away, but do not give good reasons. The men in the parable who were invited to the feast excused themselves by various means. Teoday they may excuse themselves by say- ing they have bought an automobile, they have taken up golf or they are enteftaining company Sunday eve- nings. _ To Church to Develop. “Man needs to develop the spiritual side of his nature just as he must de- velop the physical and mental sides. And the best place to develop the spiritual is in God’s house. There are many good men, splendid citizens, Kidney Disorder (By Dr. L. C. Babcock.) Simple methods are usually the most effective ones when treating any disorder of the human system. The mere drinking a cup of hot water each morning, plenty of pure water all day, and a little Anuric before every meal has been found the most effective means of overcoming kid- ney . trouble. Death would occur if the kidneys did not work day and night in separating poisons and uric acid from the blood. The danger signals are backache, depressions, aches, pains, heaviness, drowsiness, irritability, headaches, chilliness, rheumatic twinges, swollen joints, gout. It is such a simple matter to step into your favorite drug store and ob- tain Anurie, which was first diseover- ed by Dr. Pierce, of the Surgical In- stitute, Buffalo, N. Y. Every druggist dispenses it. All people in America and especial- ly those who are past middle age are prone to eat too much meat, and in consequence deposit uric acid (uratic salts) in their tissues and joints. They often suffer from twinges of rheu- matism or lumbago, sometimes from gout, swollen hands or feet. Such people are not always able to exercise sufficiently in the outdoor air in order to sweat freely and excrete im- purities through the skin. Anuric will overcome such conditions as rheuma- tism, dropsical swellings, cold ex- House Furnishings . “Cream City"” gray enam- eled dish pans, first quality, 10-quart size, 45¢ value, 19¢ “Cream City” gray enam- eled lipped sauce pans, 4- quart size, 19¢ value, 10c.
