Black Przemysl, supposed to be the strongest fortress in the world, surrendered to the :Russians on Monday, after a siege of six months’ duration. The place was .garrisoned originally by 60,000 or 80,000 men, and the besieging forces numbered about 120, 000 officers and men. The next move of the besiegers is on to Cracosx. The capture of Przemysl s an im- portant victory for the Russians, being a railway junction point on the line from Austria to Russia and Berlin. The Russians will now be able to furnish supplies for their Carpathian campaign with 'case. compared to former condi- tions.

CANDOHERSHARE How Ottawa Women Are Combining to Ensure Employment For Cano odlanaâ€"A Good P!an “At a time when the Empire is straining every nerve against the common enemy 1t is essential that each and every section of the com- munity should stand together. 'Can- ads is sending her soldiers to the help of Great Britain, but it must be re- membered that scarcely less effective help can be rendered by keeping trade and industries prosperous throughout the Dominion. No one is able to say how the strain of war may affect us.‘ Already there is a prospect of un- employment on a considerable scale during the‘ coming winter. “There are many ways in whicht the evil of unemployment may be': fought, but one way is to keep up% the demand for Canadian products in‘ order that Canadian industries mayi continue in operation. Articles that; are being produced in Canada are 3.18:) being imported annually to the value of $104,639,879. By purchasing only commodities produced in Canada we should largely increase the output of our industries and provide employ- ment for large numbers of workmen. To attain this desirable end it is hOped that, in so far as possible, housewives and others will buy pro- ducts ‘made in Canada.’ ” Household League This was the resolution passed at a meeting of several leading Canadian women in Ottawa on Saturday. They met to discuss ways and means where- by thelwomen of Canada could effec- tively.lend their assistance in tiding Canada over the probable stress and trial of the coming winter. Amongst the ladies present were Mrs. T. W. Crothers, wife of the Minister of Labor, Mrs. W. T. Herridge, wife of the moderator of the Presbyterian Church, Mrs. Adam Shortt, Mrs. Dr. Lyman, Mrs. R. H. Coats, and Mrs. J. A. Wilson, national convener 0: Household Economics. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Household League of Ottawa. Official figures relating to the im- portation of goods produced in Can- ada were la 11 before the meetiz g, and it was found that in certain products $.30 3,7083 worth of the $101039 819 imported came from the United States alone. For instance Canada, which is :1 wheat country herself, imports $913,617 worth of wheat flour iron} the ' :1ited States.
