OCR of a two-column table headed 'Old Name, New Name', introduced as 'A full list of the new names given to places bearing names of enemy origin has been gazetted and is appended'. The '?' characters are the OCR's rendering of the leader rule between the columns. The same list, with the same Friedrichswalde/Tarnma pairing, was printed independently by the Petersburg Times of 25 January 1918 (nla.news-article109505234).
