American Girl Gets
Serbian War Medal

(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
Athens, Oct. l6.-Miss Marcelle
Reed of La Grange, Ore, who for
two years has been caring for desti-
tute Serbian orphans, has received
from King Peter of Serbia the order
of the Milosrche in recognition OF
her work. For the last three months,
during the absence of Madame Dora
Drouitch, the head Of the H. P. Froth-
ingham institute, assisted by Miss
Emily Simmons of New York, Miss
Reed finally broke down under the
long strain and has returned to the
United States for rest
Mrs. Charles H. Farnam of New
York has just inspected the Frothing-
ham institute on behalf of various
American Serbian relief organizations.
She has left Athens for Saloniki,
where she will continue her work of
studying the needs of the Serbian
refugees and the civil population of
Serbia with view to securing more
unity in the American relief work.
Minister of Public Instruction Da-
vidovitch of Serbia expressed to The
Associated Press correspondent the
hope that more coordination could be
secured in the organization of Ameri-
can Serbian relief work to spare waste
effort and duplication.
1T is wonderful what the people
of the United States have done and
are doing to help distressed Serbia,
he said NO one can have any idea
how much it means to us. Without
the help of the Americans so many
Serbs would die that the Serbian peo-
pie would be in danger OF ceasing tc
exist.
Most OF all we shall need medi.
cines and clothing. But after these
the simplest and cheapest of food
stuffs; wheat, cornmeal, rice, bean:
and sugar are the essentials. Oul
people are peasants. They neither
know the use nor have acquired thu
taste for more elaborate things tc
eat. Last year they received larg'
quantity of green corn from thu
United States, but they did not know
how to eat it or what to do with it
and this valuable shipment wa
wasted on that account.
'In the matter of clothing the sim

plest and warmest garments are best.
In the early days OF the war we re.
ceived many boxes from America and
England in which kind, ladies had
pacekd low-necked, filmy balls gowns.
If you could have seen the Serbian
peasant women, who needed flannels,
clutching, shining-eyed, these gauzy
creations of silk and chiffon, the like
Of which they had never dreamed ex-
listed!

SMOKE TOO CHEAP
CIGARS IN GERMANY

Leipsic, Germany, Oct. Total
ruin of the German tobacco industry
is predicted by the Tabak Zeitung
the organ of the combined tobacco
manufacturers and dealers in Ger
many. It points out that the sale of
cigars and cigarettes, which had been
diminishing steadily since the end of
1914, sank to a minimum during Aug
ust 1916. The trade organ complains
that men who formerly smoked cigars
costing at lest three cents apiece
have now descended to weeds" sold
at one cent, while the smokers of the
cheaper brands of cigars and ciga-
rettes have in many cases taken to
the pipe and the commonest kind of
tobacco. The journal concludes by
saying that "the position is disas-
trous and the outlook hopeless, be-
cause the financial condition of Ger
many excludes the possibility of any
marked improvement after the war;"

Liquor Use is Regulated BY Many
European Countries; Welfare of
People, Governments Object

Stockholm, Oct. 7.-(Correspon-
dence Of The Associated Press) jim
company with the nations at war,
the neutral states of Scandinavia have
made some effort recently to restrict
the liquor traffic. 1t may be added,
however, that the regulations so far
in effort cannot be classed as in any
sense oppressive.
The greatest restriction enforced IS
IN Norway where spirits may be
bought only on Tuesdays, Wednes-
days, Thursdays and Fridays and
then only within sales and light
wines. including champagne, may be
bought at almost any time. The con-
sumption of the latter has materially
increased since Norway's wartime
prosperity set in
In Denmark the effort to restric5
drinking has not progressed very far.
It has been decreed, however, that IN
rural communities al drinking places
must close at II p. M, while in Cop
enhagen the closing hour has been
placed at / n. m.
Here in Sweden there is quite a
strict control over bottled spirits
with more or less complicated reg
ulations as to restaurants and cafes,
the saloon in the American sense
being unknown. Between the hours
of IL to 3 p. M, no liquors can be
sold except with food. In Gothen-
berg and other communities the
drink cannot exceed certain percent
age of the price spent for food. On
Sundays no one is admitted TO the
cafes between the hours of IL a. M.

ernor of the sts.e, at the general
election in November, before enter
ing upon the discharge of his official
duties, he will be required by the
constitution of the state, to take an
oath to Support, protect and defend

ernor can well and faithfully per-

executed by criticizing, denouncing
opposing and defying the courts
which interpret, construe and apply
those laws"

Scotch whisky, although expensive, is

The Swedish government does not
feel it is called upon to look after
the welfare of foreigners so far as
