Farmers and commercial clubs

I is thought that the publicity from

100000 BRITISH
LOST IN BATTLE
TWO DIVISIONS ANNIHILATED
ACCORDING TO BERLIN.
SERBIA IS CLEARED OF ENEMY
RuIsarians May Clash With Greeks
Who Are Nearing Frontier to Op-
pose MISUNDERSTANDING
Loses 5000 Men.

London, Dec. 1.-two British d.
visions, approximately 10000 men,
are reported by the Berlin war office
to have been practically annihilated
in the greatest defeat inflicted upon
the Franco-British allies in the Balkan
campaign. AS a result, says the Ber-
lin statement, the French and British
have been completely expelled from
Serbian territory and the army of
General Todoroff has occupied Dorian
and Givgeli, almost on the Greek bor-
der.
The Berlin dispatch is corroborated
in the part by news dispatches from
Athens admitting the retreat of the
allies from Dorian and Givgeli, and
reporting the advance of the Bulgars
to within Eve miles of the Greek bor-
der.
Greek Army Moves.
A Saloniki dispatch declares Greek
troops are moving toward the frontier
to check the Bulgars If they attempt
to invade Greece. Other Saloniki dis
patches. however, declare the Greeks
will not dispute the passage of the
Bulgars in the so-called neutral
zone" which Greece has established
between the border and Saloniki.
In such case the battle, which Is
still raging between the allies rear
guard and some 100000 Bulgars and
Teutons, may be carried south to the
allied base at Saloniki.
Greco Reaches Agreement.
A satisfactory agreement was
reached by the Anglo-French and
Greek military authorities. 1t calls
for the free movement of the expedi.
tionary forces between Saloniki and
the Greek frontier, the zone through
which the allies are retreating.
A Greek division concentrated at
Langaza, a few miles northeast Of
Saloniki. will be transferred at once
to Sores, 35 miles northeast of Sa-
loniki, and less than thirty miles from
the Bulgarian frontier
AS part of the agreement, the
Anglo-French forces took over the
Saloniki customs house.
Bulgars Lose 5000.
A Saloniki dispatch to the Times
says that the Bulgars lost 5000 men
in two attacks against the British
positions north of Lake Dotran.
Thousands of refugees from north
ern Greek Macedonia are streaming
toward Saloniki. They declare the
fighting is so severe that the hos.
pital corps OF the allies cannot at
tend to all their wounded.

HIKE ROUTE FOR SUNDAY.
Wanderlusters to Start From Chevy
Chase Circle at 3 O'Clock. :.

Leader Walter w. Paige and c. NJ.
Sterns today announced a new route
for the wanderlusters Sunday, starting
from Chevy Chase Circle at o'clock
The distance is just five miles, and the
walking for the most part is described
as easy.
The Official" description of the walk
sets forth:
THE first mile of the walk is a com
b1nation Of shaded roads and open
woods country, but the remainder is
such a labyrinth of woodland trails
that the more or less open walk at the
start II any discomfort at all, will be
forgotten in the attractiveness of the
latter A walk, in fact, that rivals the
one taken through Rock Creek Park to
.ne circle two weeks ago, yet entirely
different.
"As an historic interest an old farm
mouse, which has stood since George
Washlngton's time, will lend a charm
to the strol1ers, as Well as affording
an excellent watering station from the
old oaken bucket. Several good springs
are also to be passed. The destination
VIII be Glen Echo Heights, and the en-
tire route even surprised the leaders in
what they had expected to find; there
rore they are sure that all who go will
be likewise pleased"
tomorrow trip to Chesapeake Beach
on the o'clock train will be taken by
a number of the wanderlusters.

snow from yon mountains head,
I'd grab a star from the spangled

lay it before your feet. Whatever
a mortal man can do, will be done
by me, dear love, for you." oh,

rot, and off to the parson then
