The German armies of the west haTe suddenly taken the offensive deliver ing violent attacks simultaneously at several points. The German war offi ce reports today claim an Important victory over British troops along La Bassoe canal. In France, Just south of the Belgian border. Positions of the British oxtendlng over about two thirds of a mile. Including two strong points of support, ere said to have been taken by storm, and held in the face of counter-attacks. The French official statement, however, does not concede this victory to the Germans. It admits that they made progress temporarily but asserts that subse quently they were repulsed. Both communications report for the Germans near Craonne where trenches of the allies wire taken and retained In part Elsewhere, according to the French version of the fighting the Ger mans were repulsed wltn tne possible ?exception of Alsaco. It Is said that the Germans bombarded Sentheim. This town lies six miles southwest of Thann, which may indicate that the German kav? advanced In this region. It Is said In Berlin that Russian attacks In East Prussia were repulsed and that no important events occurred In Central Poland. The latter state ment Is fn contrast with Petrograd re ports of seven battles of Warsaw. The Rnssian Foreign Minister Ser glus Sasanoff announced that Russia would continue the war so long as a single soldier of her enemies remained on Russian soil. Three British warships were sunk in the naval engagement In the North Sea Sunday, Berlin now asserts. A statement issued there today says that "according to well informed German sources," a British bottle cruiser was sent to the bottom by a German tor pedo boat and that a German torpedo boat and that a German aviator wit nessed the destruction of the vessel. In addition td^Ebe loss of the cruiser, as previously reported in Berlin, it Is stated that two British torpedo boats were sunk and that other warships were damaged has added nothing to Its original announcement that no British vessels were lost or seriously injured. The German government's order for the confiscation of all supplies of wheat, com and flour Is regarded in England as a significant indication of the economic effects of the war upon Germany. It is said officially In Berlin however, that the action of the govern ?ment assuring'Conservation of food stuffs will make certain a plentiful supply until the next harvest. Russia is pouring reinforcements Into Bukowina, where she apparently has met with a reverse at the hands OT the"* Austrian forces. Vienna as sumes that Rumania will now hesitate to Join Russia in the war and that dan ger of the Invasion of Transylvania is over, at least for the Immediate future. In Poland heavy fighting Is under way once mbre, ind a degree of success for the Germ an s< is admitted In Petrograd. ^Berlin says that the Teutonic allies have occupied Kielce. In the wai^ with Turkey also Russia U encountering severe opposition. Although Petro grad announced that the resistance of the Turks (n the Trans-Caucasus had been virtually broken, an official state ment today says that the Turks are of fering stubborn resistance, although the Russian offensive is making pro gress. ? Berila, Jan. 26?(By Wireless to London, 3:26 p. m )?The German war office In Its statement given out this afternoon says that two strong points of support in the possession <6f the English were captured by German troops yesterday in a gen eral assault on the English positions near I-a Bassee. . . The text of the official Oerman com munication reads: "In the western theatre the enemy, tallowing bis custom, placed Mlddel kerke and Westende (In Belgium) un der Are yesterday! A large num ber at the inhabitants were killed or injured by this fire. Including the Vurgomaster ofMUiTelterke. "Our losses yesterday were MnaJl. Our troops attacked the positions of the English on both sides of La Bassee eanal. While the attack to the north of the csnal between Givenchy and the canal did not lead to the cap ture of any English positions on ac count of a strong flanking movement, an attack of the troops from Baden, to tke south of the cans,] met with octnptete success. In this region En glish positions extending for ovetr a width of 1400 metres (1,200 jrtrd?) were taken by storm and strong points of support were cap* tared. Three officers and 110 men wore taken' prisoners an? op? canpl non and three machine guns wer?. captured. "The English attempted in rain Jto recaptured the positions which hi? been Immediately employed for our own purposes, bat they were beaten back with heavy losses. Our losses were comparatively small. < r "Battles successful for our troops " place on the heights of Craoi ' ist 6t Laoo? AH ib. part of the Argonne were repelled. Mot* than fifty prisoners tell Into oar hands. "Is the eastern theatre: The Rus sians attacked positions of our cav alry to the northeast of Gumblnnen (In East Prussia) without success. Fierce artillery duels took place on the remainder of the front In Bast Prussia. "Less Important engagements to the northeast of Wloclaw'ek, on the lower Vistula, forty miles southeast of Thron, were successful for us. "Nothing of Importance has hap pened In Poland' to the weet of the Vistula river or to the east of the Plllca rlrer. London, Jan. 25.?(8:04 p m.)?The official Information bureau this even ing Issued a statement as follows: "The foreign office, replying offi cially to the interviews with Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg, the German Im perial chancellor (published In Ameri ca January 24' and 25), admits the ex istence of the documents the Germans have said they found in Brussels, but Insist these were purely informal in case the British needed to defend Bel gian neutrality. The Belgian mar ginal note upon the record explains that the entry of the English Into Bel glum would only take place after the violation of our^neutrallty by Ger many," . Paris, Jan. 26.?2:60 p. m.?Greatly Increased activity along the western battle front was reported In the offi cial French communication of today. The initiative rested with the Germans who In some sections delivered as many as five successive attacks of great violence. It Is said all these as saults were met successfully, except in the region of Craonne, where the Ger mans succeeded In penetrating the trenches of the allies and holding some of the ground gained. Bombard ment by the Germans of the Alsatian town of Senthelm, six miles southwest of Thann, Indicates they may have made some progress In this region also. Oil The Campus. The "fortunate ones," whose daily average was not under ninety-flve, found easy sailing last week. Ex amination week had no terrors for them, because there were no exams for them. But they, while their companions wept, were gaily loitering through the hours. ,Mr. Ivey Allen and sister, Miss | Edna Allen, spent the week-end with their parents in Ridgeway recently. The Senior qlaas will soon have on exhibition a most attractive display of CoV.ege pennants, class pennants, pil low covers, banners, etc. They have taken the agency for these novelties.

The monument serves a donble pur pose for those on the campns. As a weather bureau it is never falling and oft consulted. ? Just before sun-set, .when the weather is fair, it exercises most wonderful magnetic powers, drawing into Its-self boys of all sizes and ages. Just before It rains it af fects them most peculiarly.

Some of the girls, have such implicit faith in its signals that they wonld^not think of making a date without, first consult ing the "Bureau." The "Old Oaken Bucket," once sup posed to he n relict of days gone by, becomes a friend Indeed during the water fnm'ne. Those were the days that tried men's souls.

Association of the Senate Finance Committee, Senator Chatham will doubtless make a great record and add largely to his popularity in the State. While ft Is certain that he lias never given the matter one moment's consideration, or could be Induced to do so; nevertheless there are power ful influences at work to bring about ?hls much to be desired consummation. Senator Chatham's modesty may prove to be a stumbling block in bringing about Ms nomination, and It may be that the only recourse the voters of the Fifth District will have will be to. figuratively speaking, yank h'm up by the^aapa of his neck and seat ft his pantranS force Um into the pwMtlgn.

A prominent Republican made the remark the other day, that hence forth, Forsyth county would always be safely Democratic, and the Republi cans would never be able to again muster strength enough to elect their ticket JAMES H.

On the evening of January twenty second the hospitable doors of Mr. and Mrs. Johnle Neal of Centerville were thrown open to a number of friends, only those who have shared this for tune know what it means.

A. Shearin, which made the program complete. At a signal from the fairy garden all present begun to search for their favorite vegetable, these being found were taken to- the spacious dlntag roon., where a bounteous repa3t of wholesome and delicious refreshments and fruits awaited. The snowy-white linen with the ele gant crocheted doilies, neath the unique decoration and the shaded glimmed of the light made a scene of beauty.

Mr. Editor. In view of what Is going on around us in adjoining Counties it seems to some of us that it Is time for Frank lin County to wake up and get busy with the same sulrlt and sentiment Our neighboring Counties are forging ahead on all public health lines, and ' their slogan is "Forward, onward and upward" clean In, clean out clean up morally, physlclally and politically. Your humble servant was recently re-e'.ected County Health Officer an'' we promise, "Deo volens," that we *111 do some thoroughly hard work for the betterment and uplift of our people from a hygienic, sanitary, and preven tative standpoint if our good people wlllNJiold up our hands. We want to organize Auxiliary Health Societies all over the County? to attend thC3e societies In person? ta'k with the members and instruct them an all health questions. The colored peop'e of the County are mani festing great Interest In public health, and we do not believe that the white peop'e will allow themselves to be passed on this road of good work. Preventatlon Is the work for us to perform, and do the most of It bofore the waim weather sets in. Let u? head off germ life before It gets a hold on ?s. We want every home In the County to h dve a sanitary privy?these can be made at a very small cost. It Is very easy to prevent an accident, disease or calamity but it Is very diffi cult to smooth over or redress the same?better take time by the fore lock-sad call a halt. There Is no reason why disease should not be pre vented. sickness controlled, and derith postponed for a long time. Just act: fn the living prosent and the future Is not to bo dreaded. People of LoAls burg and Frank'.ln County hold up the hands at your health officer, tit.' J. E. Malone. I1-. He Dldnt Take the raper. ' -A farmer ft? this community once had a horse he wanted to sell. It was pt Valuable horse and should have brought a good price. For months he tried to afelf.the animal, but could Itot find a buyer at his figure. He tnally sold It lor nhout $15 less than 1U value, rather than carry It through the ?(Inter. ? ; Nov It happened that Jnst actp?^ just such a.horse, but was unable to find it. Then he Inserted a little a* in the home paper, which brought him a number of offers, one of which he reluctantly accepted. The first farmer did not t&lp the home paper, and of course did not see the little .ad of the man who wanted a horse, and who would hare purchas ed his animal at a good price. By not taking the paper he saved the subscription price of $1, and like wise lost $24 by not seeing the other fellow's ad. Such occurrences are happening every week here in this community, in which people actually lose good money because they do not take their home paper, and hence do not know of many of the opportunities that are placed before them. The man who takes the paper and I reads it carefully each week not Only knows what is going on, but is in fact money ahead at the end of the year by knowing what, when and where to buy. "Penny wise and pound foolish" Is exemplified in many ways. Thoughts of An Idle Hour. (By Major P. W. Barber.) What's the matter with Uncle 8am? In tlue days of our forefathers Uncle was the embodiment of honor and intergrity, of valor and fidelity. To day he is a sick man. Years ago he was a terror to evil doers. . -\ To-day he has the palsy. { There was a time when a thief was a thief, and was punished in accor dance with the laws of the land and without regard to his social, financial or political status. To-day it depends upon his bank roll, upon his social connections, upon his ability to line up "influence" in his behalf. Once we sent our bralne3t men to the legislatures, and to Congress. To-day, with an occasional except ions, we send politicans?just politi cians. Once there was a time when toehold public office was considered an honor. To-day the badge of office is more often a reproach. Away back in the dim past the office sought the man. But today?Oh, Lord! When our fathers were children men paid their taxes according to their po^esBions. To-dayVhe poor man pays and the rich man often forgets. Time was when the law was for all peoples alike. To-day it is as elastic as rubber, as variable as the wind, and as unrelia ble as an army mule. But why enumerate? Everybody knows that we prate of our national and civic honor, and yet our system is rotten to the core. Everybody knows that as a people we bold gold greater than God, and vice itfjove virtue. Of course there Is an occasional ex ception, but they are as the teeth of the hen compared with the myrald sands of the desert. Just what is the matter of Uncle Sam. anyway? Can you tell as? Some people use 4heir brains In get ting ahead In the- world. Others merely use their 'mouths, and that Is the reason death finds them stilt whittling chunks from the sam^ bid box. A few use their brains for the ad vancement of thoir own materiji In terest and the elevation Of their fel low men?and tljemselves. Many use tbem In an overpowering effort to strangle competition, to hog everything In sight; to make of the world a plaything for them and theirs. But if all brains and mouths could unite In an effort to safeguard honor, to protect virtue, and civilize onr vaunted civilization, what a world It would be! But 'tis only a dream?and' dreams seldom come true. Friday Afternoon Bridge Club.
