We hope that many such gatherings may be held in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clutton.

Struck and Get Safely Away The German raiders ticoasieted est re, battle cruisers and armor- ed cruisers. They slipped at full speed through their well -charted channels, through their mine fields, and when near the English coast divided into two sgadroos. . Two armored crabbers and one battle crab - .r needed for Scarborough. while two battle cruisers and one armored cruiser struck for HartlepooL They timed to arrive at the same hour and reached the coast strictly according to schedule. A Whitby despatch says that the batU* cruiser Von Moltke led the raid both at Scarborough and Whbtby. The escape of the German warships le accounted as simply the hardest kind of luck. The Britian Admiralty was well informed d the pending raid, had made preparations for crashing the enemy's squadrons, but the fog interfered and the German dashed homeward. The British ships were ready to take to sea, having been forewarned that the raid was to be made, but when they got within sight of the hostile squadron, the Germans seeing the Britian force, turned and steamed of at ht. speed. The tog was so thick that the visitors were able to cover their movements and make a dean getaway.
