C., Thursday, Sept. 7, 1G39. WAR IN EUROPE 1 | War breaks in Europe again. { Despite all that England and France could do, Alolph Hitler, Dictator of Germany, invades Po land to recover the city of Danzig- aa.d the cor ridor to East Prussia. i Today Geiman armies are pushing* steadily ,through Poland, sweeping the Poles before .them. The city of Warsaw, Polish capital, con tinuously bombavdtd from the air and shelled I ;hy Hitler's armies, is being evacuated by the ! civil populations. Hundreds of non-combatant men, women and children have been killed. No .one knows the size of the German armies, which j must be millions. All the man power of the I ! Poles js fighting them, consisting of more than! i miilion troops, but the German steam roller: goes on. Military experts believe Germany will I conquer Poland in a few weeks. ! In the meantime England and France, allies of ■ Poland and sworn to come to Its assistance when attacked, have yet been able to do but little to- 1 | ward relieving the desperately assailed Poles. The British fleet, in control of the seas, has insti- 1 tuted a blockade of German ports. Several Ger-! :man merchantmen have been sunk or capture-' l . l ;A German submarine off the coast of Ireland 1 torpedoed a British liner loaded with more than I a thousand passengers, 850 of them being Amer icans sailing for home from Europe. About 80 persons were killed or drowned, several perhaiv being* citizens of the United States. : i France has attacked the Siegfried line, it is • net known in what force. No material progress has yet been made toward piercing it. The Si eg- i fried line reaches from Belgium to Switzerland and is closely parallel to the French Maginot | line. Either of these bulwarks are practically I invulnerable, being more than a hundred feet j deep, lined with steel and concrete, equipped with all modern defense methods, costing un counted millions to build. ! It is not clear how Poland's friends will be abb to reach her side in this gigantic struggle, as the iway lies either through Germany's impregnable defense line, or through neutial countries, els. •:he vvater routes. The North Sea near Danzig is heavily mined, while the ocean swarms with German submarines. To enter Poland by the j -Dardanelles route would only land the trans ports on Rumanian (neutial) soil or Russian j'• hostile) country. It looks extremely bad for Poland at this time. The President of the United States has pro claimed a neutral position for this country. Australia, New Zealand, India and some other | British dominions have announced their deter mination to fight with England. While Canada has not yet spoken, it is certain that the Canadians will be loyal to the mother country. It looks lse the longest and bloodiest war in ;lhe history of the world. Already after only 4 or I days of figihting, the toll of dead and wounded prom air plane raids is greater than that of the lour years of the World War casualties from the air. Mrs. S. P. Christian Is Entertained —— * (Contributed) On Monday night Mrs. S. P. Christian and three friends and relatives, Mesdames Nume, Tom and Ralph Christian, were invited to dinner at Mrs. Frank Chris tian's at her apartment here. After dinner Mrs. Christian asked Mrs. S. P. Christian to lei them go up and look over her new home. When they arrived at the house, the ladies of Dar.- bury were there and greeted Mrs. S. P. with a miscellaneous show er. Mrs. N. E. Pepper won a prize, ice tea coasters, for making the most namt'3 in "Jessie Christian." Miss Nell Joyce won a prise for naming the most men in the 3:ble. \ A watermelon feast was enjoy ed under the beautiful oak 8 in the yard. \ Mrs. Pcott Dalton and Mrd - Garland Blackwell of Pine Ha'l visited friends in Danbury Fri day. * SAM WOODS !
