THE enforced inactivity eaused by
the prohibition of all social and
public meetings for the immedi
- ate pretest in an attempt to check the
preid of the Spanish influenza epidem
ie, practically cancelled the majority
f tocial and club events dated for the
past week. Only gathering! of the
most informal nature, confined to a
limited number of people, have contin
ued to be held, under the circumstanc
es. Matron and maid alike have been
forced to eek diversion of an extreme
ly simple nature within the four wa'ls
f home, or possibly those of in '.-
ate friend. A cosy fireside, the ever
faithful knitting needles, the crisp
yages of a lata magazine and the cheer
ing cup of tea are now indeed proving
friends in need, when we must all fall
fcack upon ourselves for entertainment.
Indeed many are just beginning to dis
cover within themselve resources of or
iginality and inspiration in the matter
ef cleverly whiling away the hour or
two of recreation, which comes all too
eldom in these busy days of absorbed
service for. others.
Many of the women in the larger
towns, who have been connected with
the theaters are being sent to Hood
Stiver, where they are aiding in the
picking and packing of apples. While
many of the men, both theatrical art
ists and employes, are spending their
enforced vacations working in the ship
yards.
Numerous college girls from other
communities have returned to their
homes in Salem during the closed per-'
sod, while a large number of Willam
ette girls lave left. for their various
tomes until the suspension of the ban
is announced. A group of Salem teach
ers are assisting the local exemption
txard .a clerical work this week.

The many admirers of Miss Mary
Schultz, gifted Salem violinist, will be
interested to hear that ghe is continu
ing her musical studies this winter in
New York under Alexander Bloch, the
assistant of Leopold Auer, one of the
foremost, violinists of the country. A
spleadid opportunity for co-operative
study was afforded Miss Sehulta this
summer, when she joined a summer
musical colony situated at Lake George
New Tork, which was composed of the
violin classes of both Mr. Bloch and
Professor Auer. Miss (Schultz plans
evenutally to return to tne coast to
follow her art professionally.
Residing with Mis Schulta in New
Tork is her sister, Miss Elizabeth
Schultz, another well known alein
girl, who is now connected with the
New York branch of the Hood River
Valley Apple association. Her work is
of a most absorbing nature, and one
that naturally keeps her in more or less
close touch with the Oregon country
and conditions here.
Miss Kuth Schultz, another sister, is
at the Bremerton navy yards in Wash
ington, where she holds a position,
nowadays envied of all girls aspiring
toward that branch of the service, that
of Yeomanette. Miss Schultz left Sa
lem late this summer for Bremerton.
.Though owing to the recent orders
of Mayor Baker of Portland prohibit
ing any large gatherings, it was impos
sible to assemble representatives of
the various women's organizations of
Portland to hear Mrs. Henry P. Dav
ison of New York, national chairman
of the woman's committee of the Unit
ed War Work campaign, on the occa
sion of her Portland visit Wednesday
Mrs. Davison addressed instead three
small groups, wo gathered at the
homes of Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett,
Mrs. J. C. Costetlo and Mrs. Julius
Lonisson.
Mrs. Davison is touring the coast
for the purpose of uniting women in
the different communities in the cam
paign for $170,000,000 which will be
made next month by united war activ
ties. At each meeting she gave the women
assembled a short history of the de
velopment of the woman's committee
and outlined the many avenues along
which the work of the women in the
second lirie of defenso is reaching the
women near the front.
"1 brina a message from the women
at the front to the women behind the
lines," said Mrs. Davison yesterday.
"This message Is an appeal for more
in the line of recreational work among
the women who are replacing men in
the war industries.
"Only few weeks ago an appeal
was made to the. Y. W. O. A. by Chair
man Fosdick, of the war camp commu
nity service, for relief on the grave
situation now confronting Wasehington
D. C. Over 80 per cent of the girls em
ployed in government work are leaving
the capital weekly because of the poor
housing conditions and the lack of rec
reational advantages. To relieve this
situation through the government would
mean to put the matter before con
gress and faea a delay that would be
disastrous at this moment, Thus the ap
peal has come direet to the Y. W. C. A.
and the on tire responsibility in the
matter is turned over to us. .
"The girls have been thrust into
munition factories wheh have sprung
up in iaolatod districts and they find
themselves with only the rudest com
forts and nothing to vary tne monot
ony of the torrifo strain of the work.
As fast as we can we are relieving this
situation with recreation centers, plac
es often of rudo construction but con
taining a bright spot with a piano and
a trained worker to inspire amusement
at the end of the day."
Attracting much attention from leis
urely shoppers these inviting sunny af
ternoons of late fall Is the brilliant
dahlia display with its corresponding
splash of gorgeous colorings, now on
exhibit in the windows of the Capital
Drug store. The blooms are grown by
Mrs. F. L. Purvine and by reason of
their, exceptional markings are arous
ing considerable enthusiasm on the
part of local dahlia lovers. All shades
from the royal purple to the apple bios-'
som pink are in regal evidence, includ
ing such novelties as tho Mverbeer,
Van Dyke, Edith Carter and Holman
Hunt. 'Mrs. Purvine also had a hand
some exhibit of blooms at the state
fair this year.
Mrs. James Cripps of Salem and her
slater, Mr. Ouil Lindsey of Los Ange
les, are passing the week in Portland
as tho guests of Mrs. J. H. Newkirk
and Mrs. D, P. Johnson.
Mrs. Jesse Johns has received word
from her brother, James Cripps, who
is stationed at Camp Kustia, Virginia,
that he has been appointed to the rank
of non-commissioned officer. Mr.
Cripps is a. Salem boy having entrain
ed for the east July fifth.
Though scattered contingents of
girls and women throughout the coun
try have proven their loyalty to the
government during the past season by
helping to harvest the erops, and in
agricultural regions assisting consider
ably with the accessary work on the
farms, where man-labor has been draft
ed, it. remains for the state of New
York to orgsnW its women for agri
cultural training. Wellesley college re
cently graduated a group of farm su
pervisors who will work with the wo
man 'a land army, helping to direct 200
of their units in the state and in train
ing1 the ten thousand farmerettes who
are expected to enroll for work in the
spring. The graduates attended the
college's training school for women
farm workers
During the training Wellesley was
like a Plattsbnrg camp. Under the di
rection of Misa Edith Diehl, a Welles
ley graduate and bn'ce a New York
business woman the training camp has
made a scientific study of the proper
housing, clothing and feeding of this
new species of the new woman the
farmerette. It has even set the fash
ion in farmerette boots, selecting a
stout, flat heeled, high laced shoe,
with fluted tongue to keep out sand
and gravel. This shoe, which will be
considered "de Tigeur" by farmerettes
next year, is a modification of the
Munsen army last and is sufficiently
feminized to make it smart as well as
scrvicable.
In-the matter of dress. Miss Diehl
has worked out a farmerette costume,
consisting of feminised overalls and
a jaunty coat to be thrown over them
at the girl goes to and from the fields.
Miss Buth Field, a graduate of Wil
lamette university and Kimball school
of Theology, has teen in Portland for
a brief visit and will leave Seattle on
Friday for Calcutta, India, to teach
music at an Indian girls' school there

French and Americans are pressing

Thus, the boche armies are gradually

is believed here that Ludendorff hopes
to give general battle soserviiere be

but by then hi armies will be demor
alized and broken and incapable of
great effort
The feeling is that if the allies do
not relent, but increase their efforts,
the Germans will be ernshed then, if
not bfore. It was this knowledge
which drove the German military lead
ers into asking for aa armistice.

Lieutenant Leslie Orland Tooze a
graduate of the University of Oregon
and well known throughout the state,
was killed by a German saiper in
France September 28. A cablegram an
nouncing his death was reeeived yea
terday by his father, Walter L. Tooze.
The message waa sent by Lieutenant
Lamar Tooze,. a twin brother of Les
lie. The cablegram stated that he had
been accorded a military burial.
The Toe re twins were born in Wood
burn, Oregon, February 4, 1895, the
family later moving to Falls City
whero the boys were graduated from
the high -school. Later tbey attended
the University of Oregon and were
both, graduated in June of 1916. In
1917 they went to Harvard university
attending the law course. Leslie won
the Beal prize for the best first-year
law boy of Harvard '
When war was declared, Leslie
Tooze went to the efficers' training
southward. The Belgians were last offi
cially reported on the outskirts of
Bruges. Unofficial reports that this
city and Zeebrugge have fallen, have
ifot been . Confirmed. The allies are
within thirteen miles ef Ghent,
To the southward, the British have
occupied .Turooing and Koubaix and
passed to the eastward of those cities.
They are four miles east of Lille and
within twelve miles of Tournai.
Aa additional advance of more than
five miles was made by the British be
tween the Lys and the Sensee rivers
east of Bouchain, they -are within sev
en miles of Valenciennes.
British and American troops, Con
tinuing their attacks between LeCa
teau and Bohain have captured the im
portant railway center of Wassigny, in
addition to other villages and are with
in 17 miles of Hirson, western bastion
of the Ardennes. They have taken 2,
500 prisoners in two days.
Operating on the Anglo-American
right, the French have completely clear
ed the Andigny forest and reached the
village of Hannappes, four miles and
a half directly north ef Guise. They
also improved their positions in the
Oise valley.
Between the Oise and the Sens the
French advanced nearly" 3 miles on a
front of more than seven miles. "

London, let. 19 Although first re
port indicated that the town of Lille
was left intact, the houses have been
gripped of all their valuables and the
food suppliee looted.
The London Mornting Post, giving a
description of how the Oernians set
about crippling Lille's industries, de
clared that not only did they comman
deer aft stocks but they ripped machin
ery out of the factories and sent it to
Germany.
(Thia probably refers to the time
just after the Germans took Lille in
1914.)
Ifhere are eases in which Frenchmen
buying machinery in Switzerland, have
found that it was the looted machinery
of Lille, sold by the Oermans. Ho
doubt many more of these machines
have been set up in Germany for use
after the war.
The Oermans sought to destroy not
only the present bnt the future of the
town and its work. From its bombard
ment and capture on October 14, 1914,
to the date of its liberation they did
not cease from robbing and murdering
and-insulting the unfortunate inhabi
tants. In one month, November, 1914, it
had to pay "eontributions" of 6,000,
