Gregory, and the firends and neigh bors gathered at her home to remind her that she had passed another year. To say that she was surprised is put ting it mildly. At an early hour the neighbors began to arrive, and a pleasant evening was .spent in various ways, and at a late hour the many well filled baskets which the guests had brought were brought forth and a most elegant supper was served, after which the friends departed to their many homes, wishing Mrs. Gregory many more birthdays. Those present were: G. P. C. Gregory and wife, Jake Hild and wife, Carl Gregory and wife, Philip Horn and wife, Fred Kaufen- berger and wife, Albert Schafer and wife, Archie Gregory and wife, Jake Trietsch and wife, Fhilip Trietsch and wife, Fred Meisinger and wife, Mrs. Terryberry, Mrs. George Rhoden, Mrs. Glen Rhoden, Pearl and Fay Gregory, Glen Rhoden, sr., Glen Rhoden, jr., Cliffen Meisinger, Calven and Lloyd Gregory, Dorotha Rhoden, Esther Trietsch, Albert Schafer, jr., Frances Schafter, Elizabeth Trietsch, Mynard Trietsch, Florence Terryberry, Glen Terryberry, Otto Gregory, Ella Lohnes, Earl Terryberry, Dclois Greg ory, Miss France.

Reinhard is now permanently located in Omaha, rep resenting the American Tract society in the capacity of field secretory and superintendent. Dr. Reinhard has been very busy in meeting his appoint ments and is fast winning the con fidence and favor of all that have listened to his convincing presenta tion of his worthy cause. The very instructive and educating stereoptican lecture on "The Value of Sacred Liter ature," recently delivered at Cedar Creek, is a wonderful revelation cf the work which is being accomplished by the society. Next Saturday even- i ing Dr. Reinhard will give a stereopti can lecture on "The Panama-Pacific Exposition," in the Presbyterian church of Cedar Creek. The screen pictures in this lecture bring the architecture and beauty of the grounds and the general design of the great exposition so clearly and real to the mind that one would almost imagine, at the close of the lecture, he had been on the grounds ?nd through the buildings. Rev. Dr. Reinhard will preach at Cedar Creek on next Sab bath morning in the German lan guage, and deliver an English ad dress in the evening of the same day. GOL. 17K3.

Copy for the Summer School Bul letin is now in the hands of the printer. It is the most complete bulletin ever published by the Peru normal. Copies will be sent upon re quest. A large number of calls are com ing to Teru faculty members for com mencement addresses. President Hayes and Dean Rouse have already received many more calls than they can accept and the faculty members have accepted dates. Correspondence from prospective summer school students and from students for the fall of 1916 is al ready heavy enough to take the en tire time of the office force. On Saturday evening. March 11, the members of the Y. W. C. A. en joyed a very pleasant evening to gether. The fallowing officers were installed: Amelia Chard, president; Mary Boyd, recording secretary, and Helen Parker, secretary-treasurer. Members of the Shakespeare class, together with Trcf. Wilson were in strumental in bringing to Peru last week the ''Merchant of Venice" in motion pictures. The manager of the local motion picture theater procured the films, and because of the liberal patronage on that evening, will prob ably present "Romeo and Juliet" at 5-ome early date. The infirmary board is confronted with the problem of furnishing the Shaw cottage, as Miss Shaw will re quire her fi'rriture by the beginning of the summer school. The members cf this board are undaunted in their courage, however. The enterprise is meeting with the hearty co-operation f all who know its mission. Some valuable and useful gifts have been received from out-of-town friends. The Presbyterian Missionary society cf Beaver City made and donated a comforter, and some individual donors cf the same city have contributed a pair of blankets and pillowslips. The T.urse has been with us seven weeks, during which time she has made pro fessional calls every day; and the in firmary has been occupied by at least one patient almost all of the time- Last Friday evening the orchestra of the Philomathean Literary society went to Dawson, where they furnish ed the music for the Dawson High school play. The spring vacation of the normal begins March 23, and closes March It Needless to say, the students are much pleased with the prospect of this vacation. Mr. A. A.

US YOUR WANTS Thompsen, Nebraska VERDUN ARMY IN PERIL OF CAPTURE German Wedge, Driven Into French Line, Threatens Forces East of Meuse. V'AST STORES ENDANGERED London, March 15. German troops have driven a wedge into the French front between Bethincourt and Dead Man hill, according to Berlin dis patches, transmitted through Amster dam today. Bethincourt, Berlin asserted, is nearly two-third surrounded and a slight German advance will force its evacuation. French positions on Dead Man hill, according to the German re port, again are in peril. The crown prince, it is believed, hopes by one brilliant stroke to break the French front northwest of the citadel. This would trap the French army on the east bank of the Meuse, and mean the surrender of enormous supplies of artillery and munitions and probably a large number of pris oners. French Realize Danger. French experts are awake to the danger of such a blow. "It is significant," said one Paris dispatch, "that the bombardment, pre lude to an infantry attack, has been confined almost entirely to the west bank of the Meuse, northwest of Ver dun. French officers conclude that the battle will rage with the greatest fury between Bethincourt and Goose hill. "If the Germans force those French positions, tehir next attack will be in Bourrus forest, two and one-half miles northwest of Verdun, and at Charny, three miles north of Verdun. Would Be No Empty Victory. "Were the Germans to break through to Verdun by way of Douau mont and Vaux, on the east bank of the Meuse, it would be an empty vic tory. They would lose 300,000 more men for the sake of an empty husk. Success on the opposite side of the river, via Goose hill and Bethincourt, might be much mores ubstantial. "French forces are holding the Lor raine front on the east side of the river. All their heavy guns and ma terial would run the risk of being cut oq and encircled, as the main bridges spanning the Meuse would be com manded by the foe. Goose Hill Critical Toint. "The French staff is fully aware of the intention of the enemy. Precau tions taken by General Petain are a guarantee against surprise. The Ger man division may be expected to hurl themselves in solid masses against Dead Man hill and Goose hill. The French officers are convinced that they will, as on the other bank, be brought to a standstill." Loses His Pocketbook. Yesterday afternoon Jesse Marshall had the misfortune to suffer the loss of his pocketbook, containing $15.45, which slipped from his pocket in some manner while he wras going from the corner of Fourth and Main streets to the Burlington passenger station. The loss was not noticed for some time af ter reaching the depot and a search failed to reveal any sign of the miss-inn- norkethook or the money. Mr. - - Marshall is willing to give a liberal reward for the return of the money. WALTER KIECHEL Republican Candidate FOR Nomination as Lieutenant Governor Nebraska born and reared.

J Absolutely Pare No Alum No Phosphate TROOPS PASS THROUGH PLATTS MOUTH FOR MEXICO Last evening the Missouri Pacific hauled through this city the first trainload of troops to depart for Mex ico from this part of the country, when the cavalry regiment from Fort Robinson departed for the front to join in the hunt that will be made for the wily Villa by the U. S. soldiers. The scene was a reminder of the days of 1898, when the Spanish-American war was on, and for the first time since that occasion broght the sense of wartime closer to the people. The first section of the Fort Robin son soldiers reached this city about 7:40 and remained here for some ten minutes while waiting for the passing of the north-bound passenger train. The first section was largely devoted to the horses of the regiment, as well as the wagons and other equipment which will be found so valuable in the work of campaigning over the Mex ican deserts and mountains, where the outlaw, Villa, lurks after his murders at Columbus, New Mexico. There were 350 of the fighting boys of Uncle Sam on the first section and all seem ed glad of the opportunity of getting to the front, where they might get into the fighting and defend the flag. A number of the boys expressed their pleasure at being relieved of fort life and being allowed to take their turn in the work on the Mexican border, as life at Fort Robinson was rather hum drum. All the members of the troop were singing and in the besto f spirits and a. splendid array of men well equipped and prepared to do their ut most to defend the old flag and se cure justice for the American lives lost in the Villa raid. The stop of the train here was only long enough for the boys to get out and walk for a few minutes to exer cise, as the train hurried on as soon as the passenger train passed them at this station. The second section of the train passed here about midnight, bound southward. Chris Parkening drove in this morn ing from his country home and depart ed on the early Burlington train for Omaha, where he will visit for a few hours, attending to some matters of business. HAS EIGHT CHILDREN. Mrs. P. Rehkamp, 2404 Herman St., Covington, Ky., writes: "I have been using Foley's Honey and Tar for nearly two years and can find no bet ter cough syrup. I have eight children and give it to all of them. They were subject to croup from babies on." It is a safe and reliable medicine. Sold everywhere. Several desirable homes for sale cheap. T. H.
