WANETTE NEEDS
A GOOD DENTIST
Wanette is badly in need of a
good dentist. Trade is going
from here to Shawnee and Pauls
Valley in a steady stream. Wan-
ette has now been without a den-
tist longer than ever before.
A good dentist will find the
Wanette field a paying proposi-
tion. If this information reaches
some live, wide-awake dentist,
do not delay but investigate. The
field cannot remain open long.

Advantages of a
Checking Account!
Not the least of the advantages of having a
checking account at this bank is the acquaint-
ance which it promotes between the depositor
and our officers.
This acquaintance enables our officers to
get in touch .with the interests of the depositor
and to lend all the co-operation consistent with
conservative banking.
Our officers gladly welcome the opportunity
to extend the facilities of the bank to new
depositors.
ONE DOLLAR STARTS AN ACCOUNT

Northern France and the coast
of Belgium still are the fields
where the most important fight-
ing in the western arena of the
war continues with the utmost
stubbornness, but as yet without
decisive result. The French war
office announces that the allied
lines are holding back so far the
onslaughts of the enemy while
news dispatches from London as-
sert that developments generally
are against the invaders.
Berlin, however, has not been
heard from on this subfect since
yesterday when it announced
that in the fighting west of Lille
German troops taking the offen-
sive had repulsed the enemy at
several points.
British warships have played
an important part in these oper-
ations and there are indications
that their activities are not at an
end. The fighting is going on
night and day and the allies are
said to be approaching close to
the German positions before
Lille.
No confirmation of the reports
evacuation of Ostend has been
\ received. The German garrison
| at Antwerp is said to have been
reduced and a German column of
reinforcements with two of the
famous 16 inch guns is reported
as having passed Antwerp on its
way to Bruges.
A house sheltering the ‘head-
quarters of the German staff at
Slype, on the Belgian coast, has
been destroyed by shell fire from
British warships.
