The Austrians have taken Belgrade
capital of Servia, the Servian army
being forced to evacuate it with all its
stores. This is regarded as one of the
| most notable successes of the Ger-
I man-Austrian forces.

It is reported that the Allies have

it seems, but allowed them to escape,

caused enormous losses to both sides.
Lord Kitchener, head of the British
war office, declares the war will last
three years if necessary, and that the
| Germans, with all their wonderful re-
| sources, will finally be worn out. He
j criticises the German campaign, and
; says that it is only a question of time

fight an offensive campaign, and the

Have you noticed the passing of the
old mill? Day by day its shadow]
grows less. Already the landscape j
looks changed as you look to the
north-west from Main street; but out
of the ashes where the old mill stood j
there will rise up beautiful flowers |
that will nod in the wind and scatter j
their fragrance to the passerby', to
the passerby on the rail road train,1
that comes and goes from the little tin;
depot.
Now let us all pray: That the lit-j
tie tin depot may be taken a way,, may j
rust strike its sides or lightning slip \
in, to help us remove our depot of tin. j
Over on the west side of the track,;
opposite our tin terminal, you will see
our electric light plant, so full of en-
ergy that the wheels never stop. Tom
Carey is the busy manager on that
corn.er. That little park just west of |
the mill office belongs to Tom. Tom
keeps his lamps trimmed and burning
in the show window. Look in when
you go by. Tom has the sewing ma-,
chine hitched up to electricity and it
runs to beat the band. Mr. Carey is
full of civic improvement. A deep
hole has been dug just east of the
mill on the grass plot, and this hole
has been filled with all kinds of rich
earth that will make the hollyhocks
grow higher than the old tin fire
house that must come down.
