A $50 BOOST
FOR FREE ICE
Gottfried Kruger Brewing Co.
Sends Check for $50 to
Swell the Ice Fund.

Free ice for the poor. This is the
slogan proposed by The Evening
Star. Today's warmth and humidity
should emphasize the necessity of all
our charitably inclined readers to
contribute to a fund that will do so
much to allay suffering and prevent
mortality among the babies of the
poor. Pure milk is useless unless that
milk can be kept cold. Ice keeps it
pure. And there are hundreds-nay
thousands of poor families that can
not afford to buy ice. 1t furnishes
untold comforts and blessings to
those who are crowded in sitting
tenements. VIII you not help to swell
the fund?
Today a very liberal contribution
was received from the Gottfried
Kruger Brewing Company, which
adds $50 to the fund. 1t is such lib
eralities as this, and of all the con-
tributors thus far, that has made
possible the success of our free ice
movement in seasons past, and that
assures the success of the present
campaign. But the smaller contribu-
tons have gone far to swell the fund
and furnish the grateful GOODNESS of
ice properly distributed in homes
where such a luxury would, other
wise, be unknown. Death among the
babies has been prevented. and the
general comfort of those doomed to
life in the sitting tenements has
been subserved. No contribution will
be deemed too small--in fact, ii is
the wish to make this a fund raised
bv popular subscription. The cause is
deserving. VIII you not help?
The subscribers to date are as fol-

How to Detect a Noise.

II something happens that an alb
normal noise is heard from the mech
anism OF motor car or other ma
chine and that 1T is difficult to find Just
what part OF 1t is responsible. In such
cases many skilled mechanics proceed
as follows, and there is no better way:
They take a fiat piece of metal. fiat
file, for example, and place one end of
II between their teeth, the other end
they apply to the parts of the machine
that may be suspected, OF course while
II Is in motion. BY stopping the ears
the abnormal sound can be distin-
guished from other noises, and with a
little experience the exact point from
which II comes can be discovered.

PHYSICAL BLIGHT AS
FRUIT OF THE WAR
Offspring Of Survivors to Be
Weak and Crippled.

Washington.-Ove Europe OF the fu.

tory rests, declare medical men and
scientists. will sweep the devastating
hand OF physical blight. Children with
crippled forms, weak bodies and I'M
balanced minds will oil the cradles of
every nation now at war, offspring OF
the men made unfit for parentage by
the rigors OF the great conflict
DE-. Ales Hrdlicka, curator OF the Ma
donal museum and noted anthropol
ogist, is one of the savants who has
studied the effect Of Europe's conflict
upon the children yet to be born. To
MIN the present war presents a vastly
different aspect with regard to future
generations than any conflict has ever
presented before.
Since men of science first began to
study the effect of wars upon the hu:
man races IL has been admitted that
whenever the best physical examples
or nation went to war to be DESTROYED
the physical manhood OF that nation
suffered. Then It was discovered that
Tor every man killed or fatally wound
ed four died OF disease. As warfare
approached Its present modern charac-
ter the number Of killed and wounded
in each engagement decreased, while
the number who died from natural
causes" increased. Army physicians
say that the percentage of mortality
from wounds In the present conflict is
likely to be far less than 1t has been In
the wars OF the past
But the scientists-both medical men
and anthropologists-ad to that state
ment their belief that the loss OF the
men killed In the war will not detract
from the physical welfare OF Europe's
future sons one-hundredth part as
much as will the men who return un.
wounded from the field. because war il
no longer primarily an annihilator OF
life, so far as the calculations OF science
are concerned, but a sbatterer OF nerv-
Gus constitutions. creator OF neuras
thenic wrecks. weakened mentalities
and sapped yltallties.
