NEW YORK, July Sword Of the
arrival OF the Adriatic in Liverpool was

Especial Cable TO The Times Dispatch
LONDON, July s.-Re-enforced by
fresh hordes, and supported by the
important strategic railway at their
rear. the Russians In Southern Poland
have developed a violent offensive.
which has. for the time at least
blunted the Austro-Gernan drive on
Warsaw and thrown the Teutons strict

attacks by large Russian forces. the
Teutons have fallen back from both
Sides OF the road TO Lublln upon the
heights north OF Krasnik. The losses
on both sides have been Unprecedented,

OF the little Polish town.
Within a few miles OF their objec-

been brought to sharp halt, but the
offensive has passed TO the Slavs

are awaiting further results In the

recalled that in the lighting around
przemysl the Austro-Gcrmans suffered
an apparently decisive check only
icw days before the fall OF the fortress
when, awaiting fresh supplies of am
munition. they fell back for a time
across the River San.
RUSSIANS PUSHED BACK
on WEST OF VISTuLA
The Teuton offensive west of the
N!stula continues unchecked, according
20 reports from Berlin. the Russians
are being pushed back steadily, and
the western bank of the river is being
cleared. The Teuton retreat on the
plains beyond Krasnik, according TO
Berlin writer's. is a merely temporary
shift. which puts the Russians to the
necessity Of storning practically i'm
pregnable positions on the fortified
heights, and gives the Austro-Germal
artillery full play against the S'4v
defenses.
Despite considerable Russian ex-
penditure OF shells in the lighting now
proceeding, ii Is not believed that this
can be kept up. 1t is also pointed out
that, owing TO the steadily increasing
Austro- German line of communications.
il is more difficult than formerly to
transport shells in the great quantities
by which Mackcn3en swept a path
through Galicia. Temporary halts to
replenish are TO be expected, II is stated
in Berlin.
Heavy fighting also continues against
Won Linsingen's army. which now holds
the western bank of the Zlota Lipa.
The Russians have directed a number
of assaults against his lines, all OF
which, according to the statement re-
ceived here tonight from Vienna, have
been repulsed. Fierce fighting con-
tinues along the Bug and, far TO the
south, on the Dniester, but the Ger
mans and Austrians report that every

have been taken in the lighting thus

PUPILS PURCHASE
RED CROSS SEALS
First Sale to School Children
Brings Receipts of Nearly
Three Hundred Dollars.
SMALL BOY TELLS OF PURPOSE

do you know what the Red Cross
Christmas seals are fort" little boy
was asked at an Omaha school last
Wednesday when the seals were be-
ing sold to the children.
Sure" he said, you lick 'em an
ii gives you tuberculosis"
Thereupon he invested in two of
them.
One boy who had lost his penny
or invested it in candy, avoided the
temporary money stringency by pur-
chasing seals with 2-cent stamp.
so successful was this first sale Of the
seals to the school children that about
$40 will go to form the nucleus OF
penny soup lunch fund in the public
schools This lie 20 per cent of the sum
raised by the sale.
The seals were sold only wednesday
noon, though the pupils had been told OF
the sale by their teachers Tuesday. Mrs.
r. r. Rutledse secured permission from
the Board Of Education Saturday, Be
tween a. m. Monday and the same
hour Wednesday Mrs. Rutledge tele-
phoned to 4O7 persons. causing Friend
Central to get taste Of the well known
Christmas rush.
Pupils Quick buyers.
A small army of Omaha women had
charge of the seal sale at the schools
In some cases they sold direct to the
juvenile consumers" In others each
teacher took orders and then sent a
couple OF young TRUSTEES out into the
hall to purchase the supply.
"In no case" said Mrs. X. r. ]. Ed
holm. did the sale take up more than
ten ~7'nutes of time
"And perhaps the greatest benefit OF
the sale was In opening the eyes OF
Omaha women to the schools and their
work. said Mrs. Rutledge. "One woman
said she never realized in what mar
row sphere she had been living In other
instances the women stayed and visited
tho various rooms and watched the chill
dren' work One school gave a fire drill
for their inspection Some of the women
were former school teachers who hadn't
been inside their old schools for years.
Every one of the women expressed a
desire to do the same thing over again
next year"
As an advertisement for the seals II
was great factor. We have the word
of Salesman walter the blind boy in
the Brandeis stores, that now when chill
dren go past his desk ON the main floor
they can often be heard to remark that
| here are the Christmas seals.
