London, Nov. 16.-Franco-Russian
troops have hurled back German de-
fenses around Monastir, and are now
but a bare four miles from that im-
portant fortress, according to recent
dispatbhes. The Bulgarian official
statements bear this out by admitting
a retreat along the Macedonian front'
northward towards the fort. The re-
port continues:
"Throughout the day our Monastir
plain positions were fiercely bombard-
ed. The enemy's violent attack failed
around the bend of the Cer na river.
We retired northwards toward Tepaw-
izh and Vigol."
Papers State Submarine Fired Warn-

No Shots at Life Boats
Berlin, Nov. 16.-A report on the
sinking of the steamer Rowanmore
with 'several Americans as members
of her crew made public today denies
that the German submarine fired on
life boats. As published in German
newspapers the details of the incident
were:
When sighted the Rowanmore was
ordered to stop, which order she did
not heed. The submarine fired a warn-
ing shot. The British vessel, which
flew no flag, turned, tried to escape,
and at the same time wirelessed her
position and her danger. The subma-
rine then started shelling the yessel.
After 25 minutes the Rowanmore
stopped, and the boats were lowered,
whereupon the shelling ceased, al-
though no distinct signals were made
by the Rowanmore.

'LANDSCAPE, HOUSE, AND-
GARDEN MAKE THE HOME
Prof. T. H. Mawson in Lecture Ex.
plains the Three Factors En-
tering Into Whole
A landscape, a garden, and a house
all taken together are necessary to
make a home, said Prof. Thomas H.
Mawson in effect in an illustrated talk
given in the lecture room of Memorial
hall last evening.
"The garden is where our highest
and best instincts may find satisfaction
away from the jarring notes and sordid1
aims of the outside world," he re-
marked in describing that feature of
the home with which his lecture prin-
cipally dealt. According to Prof. Maw-
son, the house is the central dominat-
ing part of every home and around it
and in harmony with its architecture
the gardens and landscape must be
arranged. Utility, individuality, pro-
portion and breadth, unity and style,
are the characteristics,saccording to
Prof. Mawson, which should govern
the formation of every landscape and
garden.
Most of the slides shown were illus-
trations of Prof. Mawson's own work.
Many beautiful old English homes
with their surroundings were shown.
The last slides, the ones which brought
forth a long applause from the audi-
ence, were colored photographs show-
ing the color arrangements of some of
the most beautiful of English gardens.
