CHILD'S new MOUTH
SURGICAL TRIUMPH
Flesh Grated From Abdomen
Forms Lips and Chin.

Baltimore. = After many weeks of
treatment the rebuilding of a little
girls chin and the restoration of her
! mouth to normal proportions after they
had been terribly distorted by burns
have been completed at the Johns Hop.
kins hospital here
The child's clothing had taken fire
while she was playing about a gas
stove, and the flesh on her face was
scared to such an extent that when the
wound healed only small hole was
: left where the mouth had been. So
small was the opening that the little
finger could be inserted with difficulty.
Nothing was left of the chin but the
bone and covering of SCARED flesh.
The child's mother offered all the
skin necessary for grating, but the
+ surgeon decided on another plan.
A large flap Of flesh was cut from the
child's abdomen, one side being left at
tached to the body. Then slit was
made In the arm of the patient sutl-
GENTLY large to allow the insertion of
the raised end of the flesh of the abdo-
men. This was done to establish circu-
latiOn in the abdominal flesh.
After weeks that part Of the flesh
attached to the abdomen was cut and
the child's arm with the flap Of flesh
growing to it was raised and the part
that formerly had been joined to the
abdomen was joined to the lips and
chin from which the scared flesh had
been cut. For weeks blood flowed
from the child's arm into the bridge Of
flesh from the abdomen and then into
/ the chin and lips.
When circulation had been establish
ed the child's arm was cut from her
chin and allowed to return to its nor
NAL place.
The new flesh was then attached to
the chin. A small hole had been cut In
1t to allow the child to be fed. Later
mouth was cut In the mass Of flesh
j and then the chin was rounded out.
When the child was discharged from
the hospital she could eat. talk and
move her jaws as well as any Of her
companions. It Is only upon close ex-
animation that the new chin can be
| discovered.

Fisk University, the most noted
Afro-American institution for higher

its attempt to raise an endowment
fund. The institution was offered $780,
600 more than two years ago by the
General Education Board, on condition
that it raise $240,00O in addition, for
liquidation of accumulated Indebted
ness of about $4,000, for repairing and
refitting buildings, for the installation
of a heating and lighting plant, and for
endowment. An amount of 100000
was to be raised, two-thirds Of which
was to go for endowment The insti-
tuition has run all these years, almost
entirely through the support, from
year to year, Of white friends in the:
North.
About two hundred Of these white
friends have contributed toward the
present endowment effort, but the total
amount given leaves $lO4, 1000 yet to be
raised. The time limit OF the initial
offer Of the General Education Board
expires June LIST and the University
authorities have no assurance that this
time limit will be extended.
The alumni are carrying on a loyal
rally; to raise $4,000 as their share
in the fund, but there will still remain
nearly 100000 which must be secured
from other friends. The white friends
uted generously to this fund and now

propose to do. The authorities Of the
University are making nationwide
appeal to the Afro-Americans to rally
to the rescue OF this institution which

that is highest and best in education
and culture to the Afro-Americans Of

speech on behalf of the seamen's char

he occupied the same place as bride

to communicate regarding European
events Sir Cecil said, with smile, that
diplomats abroad in the service of
their respective governments were not

big, imposing, ruddy faced diplomat,
p1cturing magnificent audacity, but his
looks betoken rather methods Of great
afability. powers Of analysis and the
ability to use the lancet instead of the
big stick.
Sir Cecil is most approachable and
democratic. He was popular passen-.

H1s manner is so easy and he is so re-
sponsive that his questioners forgive
him when he talks and yet says moth
ing.
The ambassador Is Irish by descent.
He is the grandson of Lord Monteagle

the Hon. Charles Spring Rice, and In
1904 Sir Cecil married Florence, the

earned repose late yesterday after
noon, when he was rudely awak

eral commotion, to find an excited

over his bedside. When he had
reused himself to consciousness the
blue resolved itself into two burly
officers of the law and the white into

able stomach pump in his hand.
After recovering himself, Golf de-

him up General explanations fol-
lowed, In which the negro washer
woman of the Goffs figured proml-
nently.
She had entered Colts room to find
him lying on the bed with a bottle

had attempted suicide.
