CHILDREN NEED HELP
Miss E. L. Johnson Says Poor Pupils
Must Have Medical Attention.


Must Have Medical Attention.
Philadelphia's poor children attending
the public schools are In worse plight
now than in many years, according to
Miss p. Louise Johnson, superintendent
of school nurses. Miss Johnson declared
today that there are several hundred
children on whom minor operations
should be performed at once, most of
them for adenoids.
One instance Is that of a little girl
downtown whose father is unable to raise
the 50 fee now demanded by hospitals.
The child Is feeble-minded but physicians
believe that II she were operated on for
adenoids she would greatly improve.
Miss Johnson says some OF the hos
pitals say the s. fee Is charged to pay
the expenses of their social service de-
partments. Others say that since the
European war their contributions have
been cut down considerably and they
have 70 resort to the charge TO cover the
loss.

POSSIBLY 1T MEANS YoU-READ.

Referring to the announcement in
last Thursdays Eagle, giving notice
of the annual picnic of the First Bap-
list Sunday school, to be given on next
Tuesday, April 81, beg to say that this
day was selected by the teachers of
the school on account of Tuesday be-
ing a legal holiday, when all the
schools of the city will be closed, max
ing it convenient for all children of
the town to attentive must have all
the children. When we say making
il convenient for all the children of
the town to attend" it is not to be
construed in any sense that this picnic
is only a children's affair. To the
contrary, 1t is earnestly desired that
every grown person who is in any
manner affiliated with the Baptist
Church or its Sunday school, and ev.
cry grown person or child OF the en-
tire community not connected with |
any other church or Sunday school, |
will ioin us in this day of merriment, |
and let us all make 1t one long to be |
remembered If you are a member |
of any other church or school and de. |
sire to be with us, we do not wish TO |
be understood that you are not want
ed: it is all right for you to come, too;
we will be glad to have you, but we
do want 1t understood that we would
not allure any from the fold where
they belong.
Now. let every child and member
of our school be in attendance Sunday
morning, showing your positive loyalty
10 your school; that you will do this
much at least to make the school what
II should be. We need you. We want
400 in attendance tomorrow. Parents,
do your duty: come tomorrow, If you
can. but If providential cares prevent
vour attendance, will you still do your
duty by seeing that your children are
in attendance?

10 to %, cool wave 22 to 26. High
temperatures will prevail while this
storm wave is approaching and a
great fall in temperature will follow
During that great fall in temperatures
very considerable amount of rain
is expected, but not in all places.
Our forecasts of rainfall for March
were almost perfect. The exceptions
were few quite small localities
where concentrated rains fell, such
as near Omaha, Milwaukee, Cincinnati
and Denver, The heavy rains about
the Middle and West Mexican Gulf
sections were as predicted and came
from the evaporation section not far
from Panama. The April rains, par
ticularly during the great fall in tenn
perature from near April II to near
April "a, will be very much the same
as for last week in March, and will
come from the Panama evaporation
district.
Next disturbance will reach Pacific
coast about April "a, cross Pacific

leys 26 to %, Eastern sections 49,.
Warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about April "a, great central valleys
26, Eastern sections 2S. Cool wave
will cross Pacific slope about April q,

This disturbance will include the
great storms we have been telling you
about. The temperatures will average
oliver than usual. AS incorporation
locality will be changing from the
Panama district to the Canary Islands
district = northwest of Africa - the
rainfall will be more evenly divided
between the West Mexican Gulf Sec
ton and our Atlantic coast.
Following April "a our moisture will
come from the Canary Islands district
and rainfall will be fair in Atlantic
coast sections to last of May, and west
of the Atlantic seaboard rainfall will
be deficient.

Therea re times when nations and
races become more excitable and more
readily go to extremes. Why? We
will not undertake to say. We seem
to be living in one of those excitable

not bring success if those who control
the governments-the voters-permit !
their passions to lead them astray
This is a time for all American citi-

good purposes, to counsel moderation.

have until then"
Then real alarm came the next
day. Ralph was dumbfounded when
run started on the institution, In
some way the news leaked out that
the bank was short of funds. All
kinds of evil rumors spread abroad!
Mr.. Rich had gone away anticipating
failure! Then had been speculation!
and by eight o'clock the next morn
ing hundreds we're grouped about the
front of the institution.
Wayne took the initiative. He put
up a sign stating that the bank would
close until Mr.. Rich was able to re-
turn and take charge of affairs.
Then there came into the town a
stranger, who took up his quarters
at the local hotel. He gave out that
he was the representative of veal
thy brokerage house in the city. He
announced that beginning the next
day he would purchase depositors'
accounts at fifty cents on the dollar.
That night as Ralph was dejectedly
passing the bank he noted a light in
the rear private room. He went to
the door and looked in. 1t was to
observe Wayne before the open col
lateral safe. The door of one of its
compartments that was generally I'M
used was open. In his hand Wayne
held package strangely suggestive
of the reserve fund parcel. He re-
placed it, seemed to chuckle, and his
face wore a certain crafty look.
When he had departed Ralph entered
the bank, unlocked the safe with his
own keys and found-the hidden
one hundred thousand dollars.
The truth came to Ralph's mind in
a flash. Dark suspicious were en-

He grew dumpy and dull. The local
physician advised a journey and a
rest. Wayne Influenced Mr.. Rich to
go to a near city where a friend of
his, doctor, had specialist hospi-
tai.
HE will Soon fix you up" assured
Wayne. Put yourself in his hands
and he will make a new man of you
within month"
But business bank?" ques-
toned the president anxiously.
ooh, Ralph and l can run things
to perfection" declared Wayne, and
SO the banker went away to seek the
recovery of his health, and Wayne
and Ralph conducted the business he
left behind in its usual weIl-regulated
way.
But one day Wayne called Ralph
into the private room of the absent
proprietor of the institution.
1--WE got something to tell you that
is mighty disagreeable, Ralph" he
said; with seeming concern and re-
luctancy.
81 hope nothing has gone wrong"
observed Ralph, a trifie startled.
Gust this, Ralph: the one hundred
thousand dollars cash reserve pack
age is missing"

ooh, don't get frightened" said
Wayne. 81 am confident it has been
mislaid or deposited in some city bank
by your uncle. See here, now, you
want to keep quiet about this, or well
be in hot water. There is plenty of
cash to meet all demands, unless
there should be run on the bank.
I'm going to the city to see Mr.. Rich
tonight. 1 am confident he can ex-

But Wayne returned the following
evening with serious face.
