The Menace of Russian Advance in Galicia The disasters suffered by the Austrian armies In Galicia have a bearing upon the German war plan that has not been sufficiently recognized. General Sukhomllnoff, the Russian Minister of War, who says, no doubt with inspiration, that the ask assigned to Russia by her allies is the capture of Berlin, estimates the casualties of the Austrians at 250,000 in killed, wounded and prisoners, and declares that they have lost "a great part of their artillery." The way to Breslau may not be open, but the Austrian army is in such a crippled condition that it cannot long delay the advance of the multitudinous Russians toward the German frontier. Austria has proved a broken reed to Germany. Germans must save the Fatherland if it is to be saved. Ger
man genius and patriotism must repel the movement to capture Berlin, which the Russians will undertake with their enormous resources as soon as the Austrians are disposed of. It is not the purpose of the Russian Government to subjugate Austria. According to General Sukhomlinoff, there will be no invasion of Hungary. Beyond administering territory already taken the Russians will give no more attention to the military situation in Galicia than is necessary. Leaving covering forces, the order 'On to Berlin" will be given, and Breslau once gained the way would not be long. Berlin being less than two hundred miles from the chief city of German Silesia, "The entire strength of the Russian army will be used," says the Czar's Minister of War in the statement he has just rhade at Petrograd; this means every man available, and the total will obviously be greater than that of the com
bined forces which Germany launched against Paris; that Is to say, more than a million of effectives. That the Russian peril on the eastern frontier was recognized by the German General Staff as soon as the news came of the great victory at Lemberg may be taken for granted. The strategy of the European conflict is on a tremendous scale. It may almost be said that the German battle front in the last days of August extended from the Marne to the Vistula and the Oder. The collapse of Austrian resistance to the Russian hosts in Galicia would be a signal to the Kaiser's Generals In France to modify their campaign to capture Paris, as the success of It was still In doubt peculation has been busy with the sudden swerving of the German right pressing on toward the eastern fortifications, and the movements of the centre and left were for some days conjecturable. That the whole German line bent round from Verdun to Meaux was in full retreat, defended as it fell back by the cavalry and the fire of artillery, which constantly changed ground, was at last apparent, despite official equivocation at Berlin. The retreat was sometimes spoken of as a rout, but it was probably no more a rout than was the retirement of the allies under the fierce assaults of the Germans from the Belgian frontier almost to the gates of Paris. It is not unlikely that the general character of the movement was somewhat of a surprise even to General Joffre. He could hardly have expected a de
velopment that looked so much like the breaking down of the German war machine. Later dispatches indicate that as the Germans fall back they are making a stout resistance to the advance of the allies. In fact are by no means a demoralized army. A rational judgment upon the sudden retreat is that the plan of capturing Paris was abandoned, not because the Germans found themselves outnumbered owing to reinforcements of the enemy's line, but definitely because persistence in the offensive campaign might be fatal t. Germany elsewhere. Highly desired as the possession of Paris was, involving, as it would, the defeat of France on her own territory, the security of Berlin was of greater concern, and Berlin was menaced by the Russian victories in Galicia. It must be considered that the Germans defending a strongly fortified western frontier should be able to hold the allied forces in check with half the numbers that poured across the Belgian and French frontiers to make a "dash" on Paris, thus relieving several army corps to reinforce the defensive line operating In Eastern Prussia, Posen and Silesia. Such seems to be the strategical plan to which the German General Staff has been reduced. New York Sun.

OF
MEETING
In President Kelly's report on Earlham college before the Western Quarterly meeting at Plainfield today, he announced that Inspecting agencies have lately placed Earlham in the front rank of colleges in the United States and that the college is now qualified as -a member of the Association of American Universities.

One of the additions to be made in the course of studies in the college was referred to as follows: "During the year also the faculty perfected plans for a pre-medical course and a pre-legal course. By vir
tue of arrangements with leading medical and law schools a student may now pursue a course of study at Earlham which taken with a course
later at the professional school will enable him to secure the academic and
the professional degree in a total of six or seven years, thereby saving one or two years of study." A new department which has been added will augment the practicability
of the course for students who Intend to teach after leaving college. This will make of the Richmond high school and the Joseph Moore ward
school. President Kelly said, educa
tional laboratories.
President Kelly asked the yearly
meeting to consider changes in the college constitution by which the
alumni can choose from their numbers
three trustees to be added to the present board. This, Mr. Kelly says, will spur the alumni to greater efforts for the college by placing the responsibility in their bands. In speaking of endowments, President Kelly noted the fact that in the past five yearB more than a quarter of a million dollars has been paid into the college In cash or pledges or an average of more than $50,000 a year. Speaks of Endowment. Part of this was the campaign to meet the conditional offer of the General Education board which closed December 31, 1913. A total of $133,000 was collected or pledged by $25,000 which M. M. White bequested to the college waB not included in the pro rata settlement by the General Education board after the campaign. Concluding he said: ' "The special endowment campaign had hardly closed when the news came that certain real estate located in the city of Bedford, Ind., and valued at $60,000 or $65,000 had been deeded to
Earlham college by Hon. Moses F. Dunn, an attorney of that city. Mr. Dunn came Into possession of this property through the will of his Aunt Antlonette Fell who left the property
to him 'as If in fee simple.' She stipulated in the will, however, that at his death she would be glad to have the property or any part of it then undisposed of become the property of Earlham college. Mr. Dunn with commendable generosity conveyed the property to the college, stipulating certain conditions to be in operation during his life time which the trustees readily accepted. When the real estate Is turned into cash it will be known as the Fell-Dunn Endowment."

"Made for Forty Years
This Hard Butter Cracker is the only and original Butter Cracker and is without the least bit of doubt the best Soup Cracker ever baked. The Richmond Hard Butter Cracker is a mealy cracker, made especially to eat with soups as it is far different from the usual eating cracker, and when eaten with soups it does not get soft or soggy that's why thousands of people prefer the Richmond Hard Butter Cracker for soup eating. Only the very best of Wayne County Flour is used in the making of the Richmond Butters, as in three years of trying experience we have found Wayne county wheat flour to be the best for this mealy cracker. The oyster season is now here and good old delicious oyster soup with Richmond Butters makes the "finest meal on earth." We bake Richmond Butters fresh daily and you will find that your grocer will always have a goodly supply of Fresh Richmond Butters on hands. Just try a pound or so of these Hard Butter Crackers next time, just to see fcow different they are and how much better they are with soups.
