RED CROSS EXHIBIT
Planning for Congress of Hy-
giene and Demography.
PHOTOGRAPHS AND MODELS
Installation Of Apparatus Demon
strating Welfare Work-Modern
Devices and Charts Shown.

Huge vanloads of packing cases are
being dumped almost every minute of the
day at the Red Cross pavilion, south of
the White House ellipse, where the ex-
hibits of the International Congress on
Hygiene and Demography will be display
ed The cases contain everything in the
way Of hygienic apparatus that has been
devised in recent years. charts without
number, endless arrays of large photo
graphs and models of every sort.
The work of installing the exhibits is
rapidly progressing, and it is expected
the display will be ready for the public
by the time the congress opens next week.
State Exhibits.
Prominent In the collection are the ex-
hibits made by the states of New York
and Massachusetts,. New York's part of
the show consists of charts and photo
graphs showing what has been done in
the way Of welfare work among the
school children of the big village at the
mouth of the Hudson. The photographs
show all sorts of schoolrooms, desks and
seats, roof Fairgrounds, open-air school
rooms and the like, including large pic
ture Of a dental clinic maintained in one
Of the public schools, where the childrens s
teeth are attended to by dentist who is
on the Job during school hours every day.
The charts show the reduction in child
mortality and the decreasing number OF
cases of illness of various sorts brought
about by the introduction in the school
and in the homes Of the children OF mod
ern hygienic devices.
At the south side Of the building is a
big booth, in which are shown photo
graphs of various phases of welfare
work that is being done by a telephone
company for its employees. Adjoining this
booth is one wherein a big suit and
cloak house shows pictures of what it is
doing to better the working condition of
the thousands of girls 1t employs.
Additional Buildings Needed.
1t has been found necessary to build
two additions to the Red Cross building
in order to accommodate the exhibit. The
structure, built last spring at the time
of the International Red Cross Congress
in this city. was originally constructed
in the form of a huge cross. The addi-
tions that have been built-one at the
north and the other at the south side of
the building-have destroyed the cruel
form shape Of the structure and have
added several thousand square feet of
floor space, all of which will be taken
up by the big exhibit now being in
stalled
The whole interior Of the building is
being decorated with flags and bunting,
the principal feature being American
flags. which are being used by hum
dreds. 1t is expected to have the models,
apparatus and every feature of the ex-
hibit ready for public inspection by next
Wednesday afternoon.

ON-W|DEPRAYER
Supplications to Be Offered
Tomorrow for Schools.
SERVICES TO BE GENERAL
DR.. James S. Martin Discusses Pur-
poses of Plan and Mod
ern Education.

Nationwide prayers. will be offered to-
morrow for the free schools of this and
other countries, according to plans just
perfected by the National Reform Asso-
citation. Twenty-Five hundred American
clergymen will offer prayers for the ad-
vancement and well being OF the free
schools for the ensuing year. In the mis-
sion schools and churches throughout the
world similar prayers will be offered. In
many cases in the Sunday schools the
children will participate.
The praying for the schools will become
an annual custom. if the plans of the Ma
tional Reform Association are successful.
The selection of September as the day
was due to the fact that this day pre-
cedes the opening of public schools by
only a few days. and the Sunday schools
summer season.
Day for the Colleges.
than seventy years the day of prayer
for colleges has been observed by Chris
tian people interested in these institu-
tions. although the number Of students
is small when compared to the pupils In
the free schools where there are many
millions.
Rev. DIR. James S. Martin of Pitts
burgh, Pa, who has organized the world
for this prayer day, in discussing the
matter said:
This nation is in important respects a
Chritian nation. The education provided
for her future citizens ought to corre-
spond to the national character in this
respect, and should aim to transmit that
character to the coming generations.
''The supreme need of the nation is not
for intelligent or mental culture in her
citizens. important as these are. but that
they shall be men and women Of good
moral character, able to distinguish the
difference between right and wrong, and
resolved to do what is right and to avoid
and resist what is wrong.

A Curious Windstornn.

A peculiar freak of weather is the
storm called the "williwau." This
form of storm is confined to that far
off island TERRA del Fuego. The coast
is indented with deep fiords crowned
with high mountains. Down from
their gorges drops the williwau. A
low. hoarse muttering is heard in the
distance. Suddenly, without the least
preliminary puff, fearful blast of
wind drops upon the sea-. The water
is not raised into waves, but driven
into fine dust. Fortunately the shock
lasts but ten or twelve seconds, and
calm follows at once, for no vessel
could stand such a wind for even half
a minute During the coming and go
ing of a williwau the barometer may
be watched to drop tenth Of an inch
or more and rise again at once.
