various points along the front of 4,000 yards west of Kemmel. The British also made an advance of 500 yards along the front of 1,000 yards northwest of Locon, thereby gaining a number of positions which bad been contested many days. This morning the Germans tried to regain some of these positions but. were repulsed. An enemy attack yesterday morning in the Locon area under Cover of a heavy barrage likewise was smashed. On the southern battle front the British last night near Sailly-le-Sec advanced their line in a minor operation without casualties. The German prisoners taken in all these local engagements make a considerable total. The spirit of the allied troops remain at the highest pitch. They know that every day's delay Is in itself a victory for them. Each twenty-four hours that slips by makes America loom larger on the horizon and brings the much needed overseas troops nearer the battle lines.

An investigation Is being conducted by the district attorney into the claim that women voters repeated in recent elections at Tonowanda, N. Y.

by the government should enlist his services. Even those who are above the age limit should go if the government will accept them. Any physician who is able to do the work required by the government should enlist his services. Even those who are above the age limit should go if the government will accept them. Any physician who is able to do the work required in Europe of our doctors, and who is not willing to go there for the cause, is a slacker in my estimation. "Our doctors are needed badly at the front. This is a civilized country and plenty of doctors over the age limit can be left behind to care for our ailments. But our younger doctors, and those physically able, are more badly needed in Europe than they are in this country." Dr. M. S. Bulla, examining physician for the selective service board, and who has enlisted his services for war work, said: "Our government has drafted our young men between the ages of 20 and 30 years to fight for America in Europe. These young men are compelled to go more than a million of them. It would be an outrage if our doctors did not take it upon themselves to look after our boys in the service. There is no conscription of doctors as yet, but nevertheless in my opinion every doctor should be glad to enlist his services. "If the doctors do not voluntarily enlist so that the government can have enough of them in the work at the front to look after our boys, then conscription must certainly come later."
