THE W R SITUATION
The great A 1 strian offensive on the
Italian front as ended exactly •ep-
posite to the - ay Austria and her
allies intended and expected it would
do. Instead of a win for the enemy
it has turned o t a wonderful victory,
for Italy. The Italians- have always
shown themsel es able to cope with
exclusive Austr an armies, and there
being no Germ n divisions to give
support in this' reat effort, even their
initial success ade but little inroads
on the Italian ines. Aftei‘ the dis-
aster last Nove iber, when the Aus-
trians, with the help of Germany,
broke the Ita1iaTI lines and pushed
the Italians b ek so extensively'
the Italian gener is rallied their forces
on the bank of the river Piave, and
also fell back f oin the foot of the
Alps, making -a long defensive line
north of the im ortant Italian cities
of Vicenza and erona, and extending
eastward to the • Adriatic beyond the
city of Venice. t the time many. a-
uthorities doubted greatly whether
-, this line could be permanently% held.
But it was reinforced with both Brit-
• ishand French treops, and it did hold,
not only that, although the initial
Austrian rush crossed the Piave,
they were firmly held on the opposite
bank and when the Reliant ecinunenc• e
ed a counter offensive, nothing could
hold them. • They foroed the enemy
• army into a retreat, willekunder-con-
tinued pressure/ became- a rout. The
Austrians on the tighttbank Oftthe
Piave were either killed or captured,
then the Italians crossed the river
and gave chase to the fleeing enemys
inflicting tremendous losses upon the
Austrians, which are • estimated to
reach a total of 120,000 men, 45,000
of which are prisoners. Besides these
the war booty taken was colossal, es-
pecially in guns and ammunition. The
extent of the Italian victory is not yet
really known, but enough authorative
information has been. disclosed to show
that the Italian army has achieved one
of the greatest successes of the war.
The victory will, moreover, undoubted-
• ly have a far reaching effect. The pa-
tience and endurance of the people of
Austria and Hungary had already
reached the breaking point, and if the
Present rout continues there is no tel-
ling what internal trouble will develop.
On.• the other hand, if the situation tan.
the Italian front is to be saved for
Austria, Germany will have to com
to her aid, and this Germany can ill
afford to do, without endangering her'
position on the western front. If
Germany is to cantinue her offensive
• on the western front, she has need of
every available maresthat if Aus-
aria is to be saved the western offen-
sive must be held up indefiniitely,
which would be a serious thing for
Gertnany, as things within her bor-
ders among her subjects are not in as
healthy a condition as their rulers
'could wish and the discontinuance of
the western offensive, which was to
bring a victorious peace, would need
a lot of explaining.'
• There has been no change on the
western front 'firing the week, but
there seems to .u
,ietPression a-
mong the Allied military Men that
the offensive wiiI be resumed by Ger-
many, perhaps at any moment Speak-
ing in the British House of Commons
ort Monday Premier Lloyd -George said
that the next two months will be the
most critical days.of the war and that
within the next few Italian possibly,
and within the next few days certain-
ly, a. big blow will be delivered by the
Germans. on which the whole issue
of the campaign may depend. But,
he added, the Allies were never in a
better position to meet it. He also
stated that enough Americans have
arrived to satisfy the Allies and dis-
appoint and ultimately defeat • our
foes, -and that -within a short time
the Allies would be stronger than
Germany.
HURON NOTES
-George. David, formerly of Bel -
grave, who for years has held the po-
sition of section foreman for the G.
T. R., at Clinton, is suffering from a
paralytic stroke and his recovery is
doubtful.
-Mr.. James Vance, of Farquhar,
who was recently kicked in the face by
a horse. and was taken to a London
hospital for treatment, returned home
on. Monda3r. Although the fractured
jaw is still needing attention, • the
wounds on his face have almost healed
completely and will leave very little
scar.
-On Tuesday, Stewart,the little son
of Mr. and Mrs. Wilfrid, Farquhar, of
Exeter, got hold of some poison which
had been set out to- kill ants and be-
fore he hail been discovered had eaten
some of it. The attention of a doctor
brought the little fellow around and in

Mr. Gill possessed remarkably good
health for a man of his years, and
was! out to church on the Sunday mem-
doUsteterhis-deathe A rather, sudden,
breaking up' of the constitution was'
the icause of - death. Mr. Glib was
born in Cornwall, England,. where he
was' married, and with his wife and
two f children came to Canada, first
.settling in Darlington Township, arid
to years later moved to- Eeatter,

years, when sheep raising was more
Popular in this district than it is at
present, Mr. Gill was equtere4a :noted
shearer, and took part ire conteistee in
the larger centres. • He could use eith-
er hand equally,well in this work and
for that reason was hard to beat. Ee
was bailiff ofthe town fee many years.
Heis survived by his widow, one son
and one daughter: John,- of &Mice
arid Mary, of Kingsville, both of whom
were home for the funeral. Two
brothers also survive :.,Ned and Joseph
of Grand Bend. The funeral was held
on Saturday and was conducted by
Rev. J. W. Baird.
-Much sorrow and regret is expres-
sed at the death of a long and much
esteemed resident of Centralia, in the
person of Mrs; Robert McFalls, who
passed away at the home of her dau-
ghter, Mrs. Thomas Willis, on Thurs-
day of last week, in her 65th year.
Deceased had been in poor health for
several years, suffering from anaemia.
At times her condition would improve
and she would give promise of recov-
ery, but for some months she has been
on the wane, the end coming calnily
and peacefully. 'Deceased maiden
name was Rozella McLeod, and she
was born in the Township of 'McGill-
• ivry. She. was twice married, her
first husband .being the late Thomas.
Hodgins, who for many years conduct-

•gether with four children by her first
husband -.-Mrs. Thos. Willis of Cen-
• tralia; Mrs. Wm. Hodgert, Exeter;

gins of Centralia. She is also surviv-
ed by one brother and twcasisters-
Mrs. Jas. McLeod, of Michigan; Mrs,
Joseph Rollins of Crystal airy, Man.;
Mrs. George Hodgins of • Biddulph.
Deceased's whole life has been spent
in that vicinity and her Many good
qualities have endeared her to count-
less friends who will much regret to
her of her death. The funeral took
Place from the home of her daughter,
Mrs. Thos. Willis, withe whom she had
resided for the past year and a half,
on Saturday • to St. James' cemetry,
east of 'Olandeboye.

Waldron, who came up from Kingston
over a half century ago and settled'
on the London Road. The subject of
this sketch was in the prime .of life
when .stricken with paralysis a year
ago last August and he had never been
able since to take up the duties of life
again. He had recovered sufficiently
to be able to get out and always enjoy
a drive. Indeed he had been in Clin-
ton only a couple of days previous to
his death. 'But the end was inevitable
and camas a relief. The late Mr.
Waldron was possessed of a strong,
character. of indpendent opinions rind
considerable ability in • presenting
them. He was always ready to state
his eonvictioes and to give reasons for
theta. In politics he was a Liberal
but hetookno active part in public
life. He is survived by his wife and
one sister and two brothers, Miss..
Eliza and Byron at home and Gordo'

ments foit the supply of seed whic..h they' will need for fall sowing.

purpose. If there is no demand locally, the information should be
