[
With Joyous shouts, high in the aJr
Our hats for him who wins are tossed.
But what of him. of honors bare.
Who strove os honestly—and lost?
E'en though his eyes with tears are dtm.
All thought of him will quickly fade
Except when men refer to him
For the poor showing that he made.
And yet we sometimes must confess
Ab we see men to honor rise,
Some are less worthy of success
Than he who failed to win the prise
Because he was unfairly used
By thoee we thought should him be
friend
And that his good name was abased
B7 some who to such tricks descend.
The world tn this seems to delight
Nor of the means employed complains
Ho matter If by wrong or right
Of one who victory attains.
But we In this may solace find.
View it from any point we choose—
It seems as If It was designed
For some to win and some to lose.

FOURTH FALL OF LUTZK.
Fortress Taken by Russians Has Soon
Much Fighting In Present Wor.
Lutzk, captured by the Russians in
their latest offensive against Austria,
is situated thirty-five miles from the
Galician border and is a modern
stronghold erected within recent years
by Russia to ward off possible Aus
trian aggression. It is the eastern an
gle of the Volhynian fortress, the two
others, Dubno. die apex, situated thir
ty miles to tlie southeast, still in Teu
ton hands, and Rovno, thirty miles to
the east, having been built for its sup
port. When the German unil Austro
Hunr.arinn armies last autumn com
pelled the Russians to retire on the
whole ,>XJ mile front I.utzk was one of
the most bitterly contested points on
the southern part of the line. It chang
ed hands three times, falling last into
Teuton hands on Oct. 1.
Tlie fortress lies halfway between
Rovno and Kovel, on the important
railway line that runs from Brest
Litovsk to the region southwest of
Kiev. It is this railway sector, be
tween Rovno and Kovel, that has been
the objective of the Russian attacks
ever since the Teuton offensive came to
a standstill eight months ago. for its
control would give the Russians a free
hand to operate southward against the
lines In Galicia.
Without holding Lutzk the Austrians
will have a hard task maintaining
themselves in the smaller Volhynian
fortress to the southeast, Dubno, and
once Dubno has fallen the road is open
to the czar’s forces for another inva
sion of western Galicia. Such an Inva
sion, If accompanied by simultaneous
attacks against the Bukowina lines,
would present a formidable menace to
the whole southernmost Austro-Hun
garian front, as it would threaten it
with being cut off or driven to the
north into the hands of the army In
vading Galicia.
The town and district of Lutzk are
of little commercial Importance. Lutzk
was at one time a thriving center, with
a population of about 40.000, but since
the Polish wars In the last half of the
sixteenth century it has steadily de
clined.
“SALLY ON CAR” SALONIKA
Tommies Adopt Various Methods to
Keep Home Folks Posted.
The Itev. F. II. Gillingham, the Essex
cricketer, who has been censoring sol
diers’ letters at the front, has been
telling some of Ills experiences. The
main object of most Tommies seems
to be to let their relatives know where
they are, and all sorts of schemes
have been discovered. A common one
at the start of the war was to place
dots under certain letters which, when
read together, gave Information as to
the writer's whereabouts, but parents
soon began to receive letters with a
confused Jumbling of dots placed un
der other letters by the censor.
The story goes, however, that a cen
sor was not wide nwake enough to seo
through one little senter -e In a letter
from a member of the . lediterranean
expeditionary force. It was in the form
of a postscript and read, “1 met Sally
on the car.” Whether one sees It or
not depends on how he pronounces
Salonlki.
HAS NEW CHINESE ALPHABET
Dr. Lam Hopes to Revolutionize His
Country’s Written Language.
Dr. T. F. Lam, a distinguished Chl
iese scholar, left San Francisco for
Uhlna, where he will offer his fellow
tountrymen an alphabet which If
idopted, he said, would revolutionize
he written language of China.
After laboring for six years while
•ccupylng the chair of associate protes
tor of oriental languages and literature
n the University of London Dr. Lam
las completed an alpl abet of fifty-six
-haracters. In addition to the new al
>habet, Dr. Lam has devised a tele
rraphic code of dots and dashes to be
ised In connection therewith. His sys- .
em, he said, had been proved practical
n a test given in the Chinese schools.
Ie was led to devise the alphabet, he
aid, because China’s present written
anguage was-so cumta-rsome that It
iroved a handicap In a fast moving
vorld.
