A slight Increase IN the number OF
weddings in 1914, compared with 1913.
is shown by the records. The total OF
337 for 1914 is nine more than the
s2s, the total for 1913. An unusual
feature Of the marriage license records
of the year Is that every license issued
was used, none was returned Such an
incident has not been noticeable for a
number of years. For example, Of the
32S licenses issued in 1913, three
licenses were returned and not used.

GUST PAID COACHES

Here AS Well AS in

BY HAL SHERIDAN.
Written for the United PreSs.)

NEW YORK, Jan. 29.-Those big
chested individuals who direct their
efforts toward training the college
mussels to grow and expand are all
"het up" For why" they demand,
Should we be picked on, for why?'
The object Of their wrath is John
Grler Hbben, who succeeded Wood
row Wilson at presldenting Princeton
university According to Nassau's
classic head, college coaches are a
detriment to a school and absolutely
fatal to the rah-rah spirit. That isn't
exactly the way Prexy said it, but
that's the gist Of his charge. Also,
according to Hibbcn, school athletics
as a whole would profit Immensely
If the whole litter Of paid coaches
were ousted into the cold gray to
work" for a living.
The statement coming from tho
head Of one of the largest uniVer'
sites in the country has aroused a
storm of comment and argument, par
tcularly through the east where
there are many small colleges besides
the larger ones employing salarled
mentors.
The best defense Of the paid coach
system was advanced here today by
veteran coach who now Is retired
from the game. He hoOted Htbben' s
arguments.
"sclentists tell u.s." he said, that a
healthy mind depends largely on a
healthy body-that the growth Of the
body should be apace with that of the
mind. Then why cast out the coach?

 Every American Jew and nol-Jew should deem it a privilege to relieve whatever suffering he or she can in the greatest catastrophe the worl6 has ever known.
 Literally millions of Jews who have been driven from their home arc wanderers, and thousands of men women and children are actually starving.
 "A fund of two million dollars should be raised promptly to relieve ill measure such sufferings as arc possible to be relieved with that amount"

HIGH DEATH RATE AMONG BABIES OF
 WORKING WOMEN

Washington, Dec. 27.-An extremely high death rate among babies of overworked mothers is emphasized in the annual report of the childrens s bureau made public today. Just how high this death rate is the bureau is seeking to learn in detailed in- quiry into the social and economic , causes of babies deaths.
 Investigations during the past year says the report. reveals that the av- cragc infant death rate in steel-mak- ,, ing and coal-mining towns is 134 out of every 1000 babies, as compared with S4 out of every 1000 babies in a residential suburb, Johnston, Pa. and Montclair N. J.. were selected as representative cities for the inquiry Conditions are being studied now in Manchester, N. H., New Bedford, Mass, Waterbury, Conn.,, Saginaw, IlMfcll., and Akron, Ohio.
 "The more favorable the civic and family surroundings and the better the general conditions of life the more clearly are they reflected in .a lessened infant mortality" says the report. The report states that tho inquiries so far conducted have re- suited in the securing of infan,.wel- fare nurses, improving the milk sup ply. and ''rcusing community inter- est in kindred activities"
 The bureau is also engaged in Q study of the problem of illegitimacy, particularly of this handicap to the individual child ana the relation be- tween illegitimacy and dependency.

FILE COMPLAINTS AT
 DELAY IN DEPOT WORK

Two strong 1ettcrs. one from Mayor Simon Ploom and the other from Secretary E. B. Bloom of the cham ber of commerce, left Pine Bluff yes terday, both addressed to Iron Noun tain officials, and both making wig orCus complaint over the apparent negligent efforts of the Iron Mountain officials to complete the work on the union passenger station.
 "There is no excuse in reason for the delay in completing that work, :" sad Mayor Bloom yesterday. ''The Iron Mountain has had men at work long enough to build several new de- pots larger than the one here. and the weather has been extremely fav- orable. 1 have written General Su- perintendent J. ". Dean exactly what I think in tho matter. The conditions at tho depot, and the treatment ac- corded the Pine Bluff people in this worthy of severe condemnation, and most certainly will not add to the popularity of the Iron Mountain here."
 It is a fact generally commented upon during the past week or ten days, while the holiday rush was on, that because of the unfinished con- dition of the work at the depot, the building was incapable of accommo- dating the crowds. Poor lighting, poor ventilation, not enough seats by far, general confusion and discon- tent, were the conditions which pre- vailed, and which Mayor Bloom and Secretary Bloom of the chamber of commerce have called to the atten- ton of the heads of the Iron Noun tain. ..~'.
