The following letter from MRS.
buting Bureau Of the National Surg
ical Dressings committee in taken
from the current issue of the Women's
Home Companion:
my cry this month is for paper.
The question of string is practically
answered by the splendid rolls Of
selvaee Q send. But paper we have
government is threatening to cut
down yet further the small supply that
still exists for the public. You can
imagine what the price is in a
try faced with famine. 1t does not
seem right to use III money in this
way If it a be avoided. My idea is
thts-one of the committees has been
collecting manila envelopes such as
arrive in every mornings mail, con-
tanning advertising pamphlets. Every
n throw away two or three of these
each day. 1t does not matter what
is written or stamped on them already
can use them for certain kinds
of small dressings, and besides they
are so very convenient, being already
closed on three sides. Could you not
send out word to the committees to
put them in the cases. Another kind
OF paper that comes in the one-pound
rolls Of cotton. separating the layers.
If h ladies unrolled it carefully
without tearing and put it in the
cases we could use it tt wrap gauze
dressings and again cut down an ex-
pense.4 Newspaper, too, we want. If
the committees will all line the cases
heavily with newspapers, they will
protect the dressings from the black
of the Waterproof paper, and we can
use the paper owe again. There are
doubtless other ways a paper cam
paign could be. worked up that l do
not think of. But in a land like yours
where there is plenty of paper, you
cannot imagine what it is. like here.
In our extremity, / am putting an APP
peal in the papers here to ask for old
copies. -,
Our other needs r cotton alb
sorbent pads, raw cotton. soft rolled
bandages, bath mits, and incontinent
pads.
THE following letter is from an am
bulance lad to whom we. sent some in
dividual first-aid packets in response
to his own request. We sent him
enough for his entire section. These
in the work they do, and they natural
ly feel happier to have these packets
on their persons: y
Dear Mrs. Austin-The. only, way
I have Of showing my APPRECIATION is
by The timeworn expression thank
you.'s But when the package came
yesterday containing the tfirst-aid. kits,
the kind lady who sent them was not
only called the best in France but
also the best in the world by forty
American boys who unite with me in
thanking you from the bottom Of our
hearts for them and, for the way they
were given to us.
Very truly yours, R-M. H."

RUSSIAN PRESSURE
ALONG RIGA FRONT

London, Jan 16.-Russia is exert
ing much tremendous pressure on the
German line south of Riga and it may
have considerable effect on the Ger,
man pressure in Roumania.
At several places the Russians have
broken through the German line and
the positions they took were those
which the Teutons had occupied for
twelve months.
The advances were made despite
heavy snow storms, freezingly cold
weather and great stretches of marsh
land
A message from General Demetrieff
pays tribute to his mems heroism
and cites their capture of fifty ma
chine guns, thirty cannon and a vast
amount of material, including 100000
bottles of brandy, as evidence of the
irresistible force of the advance.
Already weakened at several places
by the battering of the Russian as
saults the Germans apparently must
secure reinforcements soon or with
draw.
4 If reinforcements are furnished it is
believed they must be taken from the
Roumanian front
Dispatches from Roumania indicate
the Teutons are striving hard to APP
proach Galatz. They have been twelve
days advancing from Braila

H. S. SECOND DEFEATS HANsKA

y Friday evening the high school second
team travelled to Hanska and engaged
with our neighbors in harmless game
of basketball. The score, however,
would indicate more a practise Of basket
shooting by the New Ulm boys, than a
hard fought contest for at the end of the
game it stood SO to i. in favor of the New
Ulmites.
The boys say that Hanska secured her
two baskets during the time in which
our boys were wetting their shoes to
keep them from slipping on the slippery
floor. But for that Hanska might have
been presented with a goose egg. Fenske
and Schleuder did the scoring, the former
getting Is and the latter IT baskets.
Paulson and Chambard made the two
baskets for Hanska.
