TODAY'S WAR SUMMARY

The rounding up Of Rumanian troops is
being continued by the Teutonic forces
The situation north and east OF Bucharest,
following the surrender of the capital, ha>
not yet been clarified by the official re
ports.
Seemingly the Rumanians, and such
Russian troops as were aiding them. are
still on the retreat northeastward and
military commentators for the most part
do not expect stand to be made 10y the
Rumanians before the lines of the Buzeu
river is reached
In Macedonia the BuIgarians are vio-
lontly contesting the efforts of the Ser
bians to make further advances east oi
MoEastir.
Pairs reports heavy counter attacks on
Serbian positions on Wednesday night,
which are declared to have been sharply
rcpulsed.
In the Cmpathians the Russians are
still being held in check by Austro-G German
defenders OF the mountain passes and
such attacks as have been made elsewhere
along the Russian front have been re-
pulsed by Germans, according to Berlin.

NC ABSTINENCE TODAY.
Catholics Permitted to Eat Meat on
Fast Day by Papal Decree.

Roman Catholics all over the world
are exempted today from observing the
strict rule of the church requiring alb,
stinence from meat on Fridays The
exemption is brought about by the fact
that today is a hoiy day of obligation,
the Feast of the Immaculate Concep-
tion.
Up TO about five years ago holy days
falling on Fridays carried no exception
from tha use of meat, but the reigning
Pope at the time, Plus X. issued lie
cree authorizing the use of meat on Fri
days which fell on holy days. The
present Pope has not seen fit to nullify
this decree, with the result that today
Catholics will be permitted the usual
liberty of eating meat. Announcement
OF the exemption was made from the al
