further enemy attacks have been launched him him. Expect Blow On North.

An inference that might be drawn from the apparent haste of the Germans in beginning their great attack east of Montdidier almost as soon as their sweeping advance on the Aisne frone had been checked at the Marne is that another German offensive may be spe«dily launched. It 1s not improbable, according to French opinion, that this blow will fall on the British front, farther north either in front of Amiens, or in the Flanders sector, where the Germans may attempt to cut their way through to the channel ports.

In this eemwetton the British official statement speaks of a strong local attack by the Germans in the region of Merris, on the extreme western angle of the Flanders salient. This attack was completely repulsed, it Is said.

The Amiens front and the Scarpe river valley, near Arras, have been bombarded by the Germans, who have not as yet, however, attempted infantry attacks on the allied lines in those regions.

145 FINISH COURSE AT NORMAL SCHOOL

Dr. Arnold B. Hall Delivers Patriotic War Address At Annual Commencement Exercise*,

The annual commencement exercises of the Indiana State Normal school was held Friday morning at 9:30 at the Normal Hall. Dr. Arnold B. Hall, of the University of Wisconsin, delivered the commencement address for the 37 college graduates and the 10S graduates of the Normal course.

Dr. Hall in his address, which was one of the best commencement addresses that has been heard at tho State Normal for some time, outlined a personal program of constructive patriotism that included five major points as follows: First, practice individual food conservation and do not wait on others to set the example. Second, invest every cent you can possibly save in Thrift stamps, Liberty bonds, or War Saving Stamps. Third, give deliberate and enthusiastic support to all organizations that are helping with the prosecution of the war and look after the safety of the boys, as the Y. M. C. A., Red Cross, etc. Next, see that all young men and young women in the land that are not yet 21 be kept in school and educated in the best possible manner for tre work that they are to face in a short time. Lastly, support the president in every possible manner, and let the politicians that find past mistakes of any officials an excuse for destructive criticism know that they are not wanted at the present time.

Dr. Hall began his most toteresting address by sketching brief history of world affairs that resulted in Prussianism becoming the outlaw that it has. He said the tendency of Prussianism to oppose democracy and support the principle of the divine right of kings began about & century ago and since that time the schools of Germany have been divided into two classes that nurtured and developed this. One class has been to develop the machine that would follow the leadership of the kaiser and his aids, without a thought of the consequences, and the other class has been to develop the type that serves as an aid to kaiserism. "The pro?rress of Germany,'* said, "has been used as a gigantic altar to the %iod of war. England, on the other hand, has laid the foundation for all democracy, and American people now realize this despite the attempts of German propagandists to the contrary. If Germany should win in Europe, our country would ba left alone to stand against tho combined resources of that entire continent and we could not do It. If Germany should succeed in conquering France, or any of the other countries, she would have that many more resources to rely upon that are now helping the allies. That Is why we must rush men and supplies and stop her as soon as possible."

In outlining the personal program for constructive patriotism, Dr.

all sizes

Hall said:

"The problem of food production and conservation is your individual "problem, and cannot be solved by the food administrator. You, here at home, are also soldiers in the front line trenches, for there are trenches at home as well as on the fields of war. We could never win a victory if it were not for the privates in the front line trenche.-, despite all artillery preparations, and we can never win a victory unless the privates at home do their parts. A man who will not, or does not, do his part at home is as much a traitor as a soldier would be who would refuse to join in the battle. Just remember that every time you waste a piece of bread, some Belgian orphan is sacrificed on the altar of American selfishness."

After this address President W. W. Parsons gave a short talk before the certificates and diplomas were presented to the graduates and the members of the. class o 1916.

Music for the commencement exercises was furnished by the Normal orchestra, rendered in a most pleasing manner. This is the close of the graduation events for the year at the Indiana State Normal, and many of the graduates will leav© soon for their homes, while some will remain to take up work during the summer term.

would be detrimental to the government's policy of producing more food and was uncalled for by the present docket of the Circuit Court.

Prosecutor Horsley offered the following written motion: Whereas, the undersigned prosecuting attorney in and for the 43rd judicial circuit of Indiana has been reliably informed that your honor is considering the advisability of holding an adjourn-1 ed term of court for either or both ihei months of July and August for the tiiui of cases requiring a jury, and,

Whereas, such a term of court would necessitate the calling of a large

Whereas, the holding of such term of court would necessarily very materially reduce the production and saving of food articles in this country— since it is impossible now to get the necessary amount of farm labor at any price, and,

Whereas. I am acquainted with the nature and condition of the docket of jury oases in said court and sincerely believing that the condition of the docket is not suoh as to warrant or give rise to necessity for the holding of such term of court in the light Of surrounding conditions.

I, therefore, appeal to the patriotism of your honor at this critical moment and sincerely object to and protest against the holding Of an adjourned term of court.

The facts are that I had already arranged for myself and at least one of my deputies after the close of the present term of court, which is June 29th, to devote two days per week to the aid of farmers In their work.

The question of supplying food to our own dear boys in the trenches and feeding hungry ones at home and abroad is of overwhelming importance. A number of the surrounding counties, I am reliably informed, are already arranging to discontinue jury trials until the fall term of court. I ever stand ready in the future as in the past to faithfully discharge every official duty without fear or favor but I feel that it is my patriotic duty to present this matter to your honor, and invite his serious consideration of the same. Were I not to do this. I feel that I would be failing in a duty to the public.

In conclusion, without any selfish motive on my part, I again appeal to your honor's patriotism and respectfully pray that the matter of an adjourned term of court be dismissed without further consideration: and in fairness to all parties concerned. I respectfully ask that this petition and the ruling thereon be made a matter of record.

Respectfully submitted, WILLIAM E. HOUSLKY.

Prosecuting Attorney for the 43rd Judicial Circuit.
