RUSSIANS RETREAT.
vun Hindenberg's Armies Sweeping
Nluscorites Back-Rear Guard AT
tcmpts TO Check Germans.

Berlin. Feb. 15-Great battles are
;mpending all along the line ex-
tending from near Tilsit, In East
Prussia, to the Austrian province OF
Bukowina.
The Russian retreat continues. but
dispatches from dozen points today
Indicate that the Cars forces are
now reorganizing their lines and pre-
pairing for stubborn resistance
against the combined armies OF Ger
many and Autsria.
The Prussian frontier northeast OF
Insterburg, and the river Sereth re-
gion in Bukowina are engaging the
attention of the war Office today. In
those regions the most important en-
gagements of the next fortnight, 1t
is confidently predicted will be
fought out with decisive results.
Gen. Won Hindenburgs' armies,
sweeping the invaders out of East
Prussia. are encountering more de-
snerate resistance than the Russians
first offered when they began their
retreat last week. The rear guard of
the enemy is attempting to check
the German pursuit by infantry
charges. The evident purpose is TO in
terrupt Won Hindenburg's progress
while the main body Of the Russians
take positions along the frontier for
a strong defense.

regular tag day.
Members of the committee, "eal;z-
ing that the public has already hcen
heavily taxed to help deserving char
tiles, have thought that by his
method a little help from everybody
will perhaps take the place:of larger
sums from the few who SO willingly
helped last year. So the committee
hopes that every one will wear at
least one of the pretty cherries which
will be on sale that day.
Last summer the need Of a directed
plav ground was demonstrated. Over
SOC children were on the ground
during the summer and many Of
them were taught sewing, tanestry.

1t was only by the cooperation Of
generous public that the support
of this work was possible. and il
is hardly necessary to ask that ev-
cry one, old and young, help the
movement again.
