such numbers that the Red Cross

probable that as many more women
are now taking the courses.
1t may be said that the basic pur-

women fer service in war. Rather
its purpose is to bring about better

American On Outpost Duty Found

With the American Army in France,

FIRE DEPT. RECORD.
Despite Many More Calls, Loss Has
Been Comparatively Low.

According to the tentative report of
Fire Chief r. M. Dame the free losses
in this city to date, since January 1,
will total approximately 100000. In
asmuch as the property exposed to
danger in these fires is valued at $3,-
100000 an idea OF the departme nt's
excellent work may be gained.
Thus far there have been 239 fires
this year, as against 1913 of year
ago. OF these fires the most serious
have been that at the Corbin Annex,
Simons' block and the several fires
of supposed incendiary origin last
February. Following is a monthly list
Of the Ares thus far this year:
January, 19 fires, 1891; February,
81 fires, $27,722; March, 81 fires, $4sS;

STORMS IN GERMANY
Severe Fall of Rain and Snow Contin-
ues Ten DAYS


ues Ten Days
Amste rdam, Dec. 10 (By post).-
Early in December Germany suffered
from storms and cold weather, says
the Vissiche Zeitung, the severity Of
which has been equalled for many
years. For more than ten days snow
and rain worked general havoc inter
rupting telephone and telegrahpic
communication.
The whole country was in the grip
of a severe frost which in Berlin al
most entirely STOPPED horse traffic, ac-
cording to the Berliner Tageblatt,
which adds that the horses are in very
bad condition owing to lack of food,
because the women drivers do not
know how to handle them properly,
causing frequent accidents"
With each. fall of snow, Berlin fam
lilies are faced with the duty of clear
ing away the snow in front of their
dwellings. Several mornings have
provided the spectacle, over which the
newspapers make merry, of all sorts
and conditions of people busy clearing
the snow from the pavements. This
official order is occasioned~ by the
fact that there is not sufficient labor
to distribute coal in the city, take
away garbage or handle goods at the
stations.
The Vorwaerts calls them ''honor-
airy snow-sweepers" but refuses to
treat the matter as a joke.
