FADE PATCHES TO MATCH.
Children’s dresses always need patch
ing. That tlte patches may be of the
same shade as a wash dress when
needed, a good suggestion is to' sew a
small piece of the goods on the wrong
side where it will not be the way.
In washing, the piece will fade like the
dress, and be ready to use as a patch
with best results.

into place easily when the string is wlth

REDS SHATTER
FOES, CLAIM
Kolchak Reported Driven
From Irkutsk After Rout of
Armies of Gen. Deniken.
LONDON, Jan. I.—Military opposition
to Russia’s soviet government is crum
bling on all fronts, according to dis
patches here today.
Admiral Kolchak’s all-Russian forces
have been driven from Irkutsk, accord
ing to dispatches from the Siberian front.
Desperate fighting continues near the
city, thb dispatch said, with the anti
bolshevlk forces apparently making a fu
tile effort to retake Irkutsk from the
forces of War Minister Trotsky.
In the south the forces of Gen. Deni
ken continue victorious, driving the
poorluy equipped nntl-bolshevik forces
toward the sea of Azov and Odessa.
Deniken, It was Indicated, has vir
tually ceased to be an Important factor
In the military situation. His army split,
allied support withdrawn and his muni
tions exhausted, the anljl-bolshcvl.k.
leader was reported prepared to aban
don his headquarters at Taganrog and
seek safety In a war ship In the sea of
Azov.
Meantime a dispatch from Helsingfors
today quoted advices from Dorpat that
peace negotiations between Kstlionians
and the bolsheviki bad been broken off.
Pritish official circles, it was said, are
beginning to swing to the view that
some sort of understanding with Russia
is inevitable. Observers believed im
portant developments may come from tlie
conferences between James O'Grady, M.
I\, and Livtlnoff in Copenhagen.
