Glazier, of Provo Bench, reports that the bridge In Provo Canyon leading into the Vivian Park Resort has been rebuilt and is now in good shape for passage. A short time ago the Eccles car of Ogden, went through this bridge and while it was a close call, but for-tunately no one was hurt. Roy Har-dy's truck had Just crossed ahead of the Eccles car and had .it gone into the bridge instead of the touring car the driver would probably have been killed. It is reported unofficially that the Eccles are going to sue the county for several thousand dollars damage done to their car. , DEAN LOOSE J0INU0LORS Dean Loose, son of C. E. iLoose, en-listed in the army service on Tuesday and left for Camp Kearny yesterday. He goes as a private, notwithstanding his five years of training at the Cul-ver Military School at Culver. Indiuna where for the past two years he has acted as an instructor in military tac-tics. He could have remained at the school one more year and entered the army as a commissioned officer, but as young iLoose who will become 20 years of age the 28th of this month, stated he was young and preferred to enter the army as a private and thus be able to win his commission, If one comes by actual service. This is the spirit that does and should actuate the great majority of our American toys. Dean Loose is a strong, healthy young man, and will make Uncle Sam an ideal soldier and without ques lion he will win his commission which he and all other such young men de-serve. WHAT IS WHAT IN DRESSES Interesting Features of Importance to the Woman Who Wishes to Be Stylishly Dressed, There is cause for rejoicing when the twn showing long slender lines establishes Itself as the smart thing, observes an authority. Frocks which cut up the figure, no matter how hand-some the material they may be made of, are not so becoming and really not bo practical, as they are harder to ad-just There is no doubt that the long chemise-lik- e dress has reached the height of Its popularity. It Is shown in serge aloue or combined with satin, In georgette, heavily beaded or em-broidered in silk stitching, and la satin and printed chiffon voile. Even when the skirt Is draped or shows a tunic the lines are long and drooping. Waistlinea are either normal or slightly below and the sash is seen on many of the Imported models tied at the back to one side. A very odd deco-ration appears at the waist of a charm-ing frock of beige chiffon figured In Alice blue combined with plain blue crepe de chine. The skirt lb made in three tiers, which Is unusual, and each skirt is finished with a wide bund of the plain blue, plaited, making it ap-pear like a chiffon skirt with threa crepe de chine ruffles. About the waist-line are large, flat rosettes of the plain blue held by a very narrow sush of the same, which passes over them. The long roll collar and short sleeves art of the blue and the white net vest is made over flesh-colore- d satin. been arrested and many of them, In-cluding 50 aoclallst members of parlia-ment, executed. Because of the num-erous executions there, he snld, the town of Sveaborg has been renamed Golgotha. Finland Is on the point of starvation, despite Its German friends, and General Mannerhelm, commander of the Finnish army, asked Mr. Mor-ris, American minister to Sweden, what chance there wus for Finland to get food from the United States. Mr. Morris told him plainly It was very slim so long as Germany held the country under her control. Ostensibly ns a measure to save food, the Finnish government hus ordered the expulsion of all Jews. ' When the news einne of the assas-sination of Count von Mlrhach, Ger-man ambassador to Russia, in Mos- -j cow, at the instigation of a group of social revolutionists, there were many . predictions that the kaiser would get revenge by sending a great army to occupy the chief Russian cities, and Indeed it was stated In Berlin that such would be his course. But after breaking off diplomatic relations the chief Hun ap-parently thought better of It and a mild statement was issued hoping "thut the Russian government and peo-ple will succeed In nipping the pres-ent revolutionary agitation in the bud." It Is not easy to see how Ger-many would gain much by further grabbing in distracted and starving Russia. The pnn-Germ- pnrfy triumphed over Its opponents and forced the resignation pf Foreign Minister von Kuehlmann because of his "peuce im-possible by force" speech, and then proceeded to pick Admiral von Hintze, the trickiest and most disreputable of Teuton diplomats, as his successor. Great excitement In the relchstag re-sulted and the socialists agreed not to vote the war credit, which could not be passed without their aid, until fhe new minister had announced his pol-icies. Von Hintze Is a swashbuckling militarist and the creature of Admiral von Tirpltz. As minister to China he disgraced himself, and as minister to Mexico he deliberately stirred np a row between Uiiertu and Carrnnza In order to embroil the United States. The French press uccepts the selec-tion of Von Hintze as evidence that the militarists In Germany are strong-er than the diplomats and are deter-mined upon a war to the finish. They believe he will do the much more harm than od. - Military oierutUms of prime Impor-tance last week were confined to Al-bania, a field1 of which little ha been heard for a long time. There the Italians and French got very busy and, with the aid of British naval forces In the Adriatic, started an offensive that met with considerable success and is still progressing as this Is writ-ten. Within a few days the allied forces had advanced more than twenty-f-ive miles on a battle front sixty miles long, had raptured Fieri, an im-portant town eight miles from the Adriatic, and had practically sur-- scandal resulted, and extremists In Vienna are asserting that both the emperor and the empress should be literally sequestered and made to take orders from Berlin. Hungary, too, is furious at Austria because the Hun-garian regiments were forced to bear the brunt of the attack in Italy and in some cases were practically wiped out. fa-T- here were no major operations on the Italian front last week, but the Italians unceasingly harassed the enemy by raids and sorties and In the mountain region improved their own positions considerably. The American avlntors on that front kept up their excellent work. ;o i. On the western front there was an ominous silence oh the port of the Huns. The usual 40 days needed by them to organize a new drive had nearly "expired, but still they did not start. However, abnormal activity was observed behind their lines, especially in the regions where the Americans are stationed. On Teusday the French undertook the first considerable In-fantry operation in many days and, with the aid of tanks, advanced more than a mile on a front of two and a half mites northwest of Complegne. Prisoners and gunf were captured and positions occupied that serve to pro-tect the Important railway Junction at Estrees-St- . Denis. General Petaln also took important ground east of the Retz forest on the Marne front There were many raids by all the allied forces during the week, and some ar-tillery activity beyond the ordinary In ,the British sectors. Itt Such splendid work Is being done by the air forces of the allies on the west front that military observers now as-sert the superiority in the air now un-questionably rests with them. The British flyers have engaged in a num-ber of extraordinary exploits, and the French and Americans are keeping up their end of it most satisfactorily. On Wednesday a squadron of American scout planes flew back of the German Hues in the Chateau Thierry region for 50 miles, obtaining valuable in-formation and all returning safely. Colonel Roosevelt was elated by the news that his youngest son, Lieut. Quentln Roosevelt, had downed his first Hun plane. Bombing ndds on German cities by the allied airmen are liKTeaslug In frequency and effective-ness. In preparation for the next big drive Von Ulndenburg called for a million more men, to be taken from the fac-tories their places being filled by pris-oners and foreigners, and, contrary to agreements, by exchanged prisoners of war. Recruits of sixteen, seventeen and eighteen years are being called, and everything Indicates that the su-preme command Is straining every nerve to end the war this year. To encourage the troops there has been a systematic campaign to mislead then as to America's participation la the war. The people now refuse to believe we are taking an active part In the conflict or that there are more than a few thousands of our men in France. NEWS REVIEW OF I THE PAST WEEK i s Two New Pro-All- y Republics Are ; Established in Northern Part of Russia. PROBLEM OF AID UNSOLVED Von Hintze, to Succeed Von Kuehlmann Italians and French Conducting Successful Often-slv- e Against the Austrlans In South-ern Albania. ! By EDWARD W. PICKARD. "What shall we do to help Russia?" was still the leading question for the governments of the allied nations last week. Developments, though they were In the main favorable to the al-lied cause, had not greatly clarified the situation. It seems apparent that Ger-many, too, is in doubt as to- - wjiut course to pursue In the nearlCast lier policy of terrorism and grab-al- l has v not been working out well and has ' caused bitter complaint even In the relchstag. ' The people of the Murman coast, Between Finland and the White sea, where there are large allied military stores under guard of Brlflsh and American forces, have created the White sea republic, and in the rest of Arctic Russia, from the White sea to Siberia, the republic of Wologda-rzh- e has been established. Both of these new states are anti-Germa- n uud pro-all- y and their people promise to 'i! active forces against the Teu-tons If given aid. In western Siberia the bolshevlkl have been defeated again, and. ore reported to have evac-uated Irkutsk, and a provisional gov-ernment for Siberia has been sxt up in Novonlcolocvsk. This government has laid out a progruin that Includes the liberation of Siberia from the bol- -' alievlkl; the avoidance. If possible, of foreign Intervention universal suf--' fruge, distribution of the laud amoug the landless and other economic re-- 1 forms. It intends to Nuniuiou a con-stituent assembly and to restore law and order. AIL this is being done un-der the protection of the2 army of Czecho-Slovak- s that has continued its victorious campaign against the bol-shevlkl and the German and Austrian war prisoners who are aiding them, j Thus there apitears to be forming the"stalrislied ITuthorTty that has been considered requisite for the of aid to the Russians, at least to Siberia. But President Wilson would not consent to the dispatch of an armed force that would mean the weakening of the western front In Eu-tot- e, an3 doubtless the other allied leaders agreed with hlra. Further-more, Mr. Wilson especially Is averse 't departing from the policy of non-interference in the Internal affairs of friendly notion. This does not mean that the allies will abandon the plan to send to Siberia supplies from Amer-ica and a commission to extend help of an Industrial and economic nature. Moreover, the Czecho-Slovak- s there are doing so valuable a work that the entente powers Intend to give them 'such moral and material support as they may need, provided they stand by their pledge to refrain from assum-ing pmnuueut control over the coun-try through which they are passing. If a military force Is sent Into Si-beria It proUbly will be lurgely uiude up of Japuuese and Chinese. ' Through German sources comes the assertion that the soviet government jof Russia has declared it will ally Itself with Germany if on Anglo-Jnp-anes- e expedition Intervenes In Siberia. f,o doubt Lenine would commit him-self to such a course, but It Is a ques-tion whether he would be sustained by any great numbers of IUissluns. M Germany's penetration of western Russia and Finland has been accom-panied by such brutalities that the m'mirlty socialists In the relchstag ici'v,. been attacking the government's ' ''.licy atrongly. Their leader, Hugo asserts that since tj.e German atWd nuluud 73.WO workmen bJF rounded Berat, the chief city of south-er-a Albnnln. They also had occupied mountain positions f great strategic value. Before the week closed the Austrlans had evacuated Berat This Albaolun offensive was counted on to have great ixdltlcnl effect, es-pecially In Auntrla-Hnngar- y and among the small nations of the Bal-kans. Already It had caused evident uneasiness among the forces of the central powers that face the allies from the Adriatic to Satonlkl. In Macedonia they made several costly and vnln attucks on the allies. The apparent objective of the allies in Al-bania Is the Shkuiiibi valley and the old Roman road, the Via Egnatla, leading to the Vardar valley and open-ing the way to a niovemeut toward the east that would outflank the enemy north of Monustlr. If the Austrlans are decisively de-feated In this region the kaiser may force them to accept Von Below as their generalissimo, despite their pro-tests. The efforts to Germanize the Austrian general headquarters have stirred up tne already angry people of the dual kingdom. Another row tfcere has been caused by more or less opeo assertions that Empress Zltn nil tied the offensive on Italy by :re-wt1- the use of gas and otherwise tampering the comuuanders. A bis There have been many stories of the declining morale of the German trooi. due partly to the prevalence of Siwnlsh Influenza, but It would be foolish to grow optimistic over these report. The enemy Is still strong and can produce an amazing number of men, and confidence in our victory must be based on our growing strength rntlwr than on his growing weakness. The stream of Americans across the Atlantic continues, although it may be f they are not being sent so rupldly Just now as in recent months. The war department recently decided that all men of the new drafts should be given six months' training on this side. The aviinte gave a big Insist to the plan for a bone-dr- y America by voting In favor of the prohibition rider to the agricultural extension bill. It went on record first by re-versing the ruling of the chair, thnt the amendment Is general legislation and therefore barred from an appro-priation measure. The wets admitted their defeat since the move for war prohibition originated In the lower house, and relied on the president to veto the bill on the ground tlmt the workers In vital war Industries should not be deprived of ulcoholio beverages. SUPPLANTS LAUNDRY HAMPER Chute Built in the House Is a Great Convenience If Soiled Clothes Are Promptly Sorted. One way to get along without a laun-dry hamper Is to have a laundry chute built In the house. This is a chute ex-tending from the second and perhapt the third floor of a house to the laun-dry, with openings on each floor. Th clothes are put In the chute as soon as they are soiled and they drop down to the laundry. A laundry chute Is an admirable wa) of solving the trouble of caring foi soiled clothes, if it Is properly cared for. There should be a big basket at the bottom of the chute, Into which the clothes can full. Every duy some one should go to the laundry and sort the clothes 6ent through the chute Anything damp, like bath towels, should be bung np and dried. Tabl linen and clothes should be separated If a laundry chuto Is managed In thli way it Is nothing but a convenience tc be thankful for. However, If It become! choked with clothes and linen, whlcb drop from It Into an untidy heap oc the laundry floor, there to mold and mildew for a week. It Is a nuisance. FORMER PROVO ROY CITED FOR BRAVERY For coolness and courage displaved in risking his life to save his ship and all on board from destruction by one of tho ship's own depth bombs. Ensign Ellwood L. Houtz, son of Mrs.. Edna iL. Houtz, formerly of Provo, has been commended to Secretary Daniels of the navy for bravery. Such Is the information received here from Washington, D. C. Ennlgn Houtz has risen from the ranks of an ordinary seaman to the grade of a commissioned officer in United Statts navy and only recently was in Salt 'Lake on a furlough visit-ing family and friends here. The ensign was on duty on the Cor-sair, a converted yacht that is now used as a submarine destroyer. These dostroyers are supplied with depth bombs, which are used to drop upon "emerged submarines to destroy them. As explained by local navy men, the bom Is attached to a cable and fastened In a stable position under the forward hold in readings for dropping when a is to be de-stroyed. ' According to the story received here of Ensign Hcutz' feat, a depth bomb tethered to the Corsair became detached from Its moorings. The ves-sel was riding a very rough sea and the bomb it as bobbing around in the water under the ship, still attached to the cable, but free from Its moor-ings. At any inatant a roll of the ship or a bob of the bomb might have brought the firing pin of the bomb In contact with the hull of the vessel. Such contact would have exploded the charge and blown the ship to pieces. At the imminent risk of being hurl- - ed into the sea or blown to pieces at any instant Ensign Houtz climbed down the gangway on the side of the ship, followed up tho cable until he reached the bomb, unfastened the cable and securely moored the bomb so that the rolling of the ship would not explode it, Jlis act, It is reported undoubtedly prevented an explosion that would have demolished the ship and probably would have killed every one. aboard. 616 WATER CASE RECEIVING FURTHER ATTENTION BY MORSE 'Hearing was had Tuesday before Judge. C. Wl Morse in the case of Provo Reservoir Co., vs. Provo City et al., on an application by the Utah ' Power & Light Company one of the defendants, for a modification of the order of distribution of water. The power company claims that it has a class A light to 46 second feet of wa-ter, formerly owned by the Blue Cliff Canal Company, and hat the order of distribution of this water to the plaintiff as class A, water is in viola-tion of the rights of the Utah Power & Light Company. The question was submitted and vill be taken under advisement.
