HUGGED BY A MONKEY.
Swings From q Tree and Throws Arms
About Neck OF a Young Woman.

Denver. The lovable monkey is
loose. When he swung from the low
branches OF a tree at Twelfth avenue
and Detroit street and threw his arms
about the neck of a young woman pc
destrian there was a lot OF commotion.
Aside from breaking the spooning laws,
the monkey shouldn't have chosen
broad daylight.
A scream from the young woman
brought residents to their doors. They
saw her running In one direction and
the monkey In another. 1t vas diff
cult for them to ascertain which was
the more frightened. the young woman
or the lovable monkey.
Patrolmen from the Capitol Hill sta
ton have been pursuing the lovable
monkey.
Where the monkey came from is a
question. The zoo keeper at City park
says all his monkeys are lust where
they should be" and that none of them
would be ungentlemanly enough to
leave home and try to hug pedestrians.

And now another great mountain
range, the snow-capped Cascades in
Washington, is being made to yield
it's treasure store of energy to serve
the needs of man. Soon the bark of
the steam locomotive will be stilled
there, for the work of electrifying the
211 miles of main line through this
range is well under way. When this
section is completed the Milwaukee

Mountain travel is given a new

Child MURDERED
ASSAULT BELIEVED TO HAVE
PRECEDED KILLING OF ALTA
BRAUN, AT LIE MARS, Ia.

LeMars, Ia, Aug. 23.-The dead
body of Alta Braun, 12-year-old
daughter of Chris Braun, of this
city, was found at 9 O'Clock this
morning in an alley just off one Of
the principal residence streets. Police
believe the girl was assaulted and
murdered. The body was found by
Mrs. Henry Becker, who lives nearby.
An old sweater was tightly bound
around her neck. Death was due to
strangulation. The fact that a part
of the girls white dress was torn
from her gave evidence of a struggle.
There we're marks on her arms and
throat. Persons living in the neigh
borhood say they heard no cutlery.

RAISING hemp
FARMERS NEAR IPSWICH WHO
PLANTED SMALL TRACTS,
WELL REWARDED.

Ipswich, Aug. 23.-Land owners in
northern South Dakota who have been
watching the experiment in hemp
growing being conducted near lp-
switch are greatly encouraged. The
cess and opens a new industry for
the farmers of this section.
Last spring agricultural experts of
the International Harvester company
selected Ipswich as n of the hemp
centers established in the northwest.
With the aid of Ipswich boosters,
seven farmers were induced to plant
100 acres OF hemp.
Recently Professors Holden and
Haney. employees of the Information
al, and Superintendents Grier and
Smith inspected these fields and took
photographs of them. In all of the
fields the hemp stands from eight to
nine feet high. One of the best fields
is on ground where nothing but sun
flowers grew before.
From the results being obtained
around Ipswich il is evident that
more will be sown next year. There
is no longer any question as to the
climate not being adapted to hemp
production. The crops sown in the
early part of June are much better
than those own earlier or later.
Hence ii is profitable for the farmer
to SOW hemp for he need not plant
il until he has planted his other
crops. He need not fear that the
weeds will destroy il even if he
must plant a little bit late.
The experts who inspected the
fields around Ipswich estimated the
yields at 500 to $500 pounds. the
hemp now being worth from IL to Is
cents per pound.

In all the countries of Europe the

the women of Greece are doing a
wonderful and beautiful work for
their country.
Here in Pensacola today the men
and the women, natives of Greece, are
showing their allegiance to the Stars
and Stripes. The sense of loyalty
which is so strong within them finds
expression in their reverence for the
American flag, and nothing which we
are presenting in The Journal today
goes farther to show this splendid
spirit of the Greeks than does the
generous patronage they have given
to this edition, published under the
auspices of the Red Cross Society.

THE SPIRIT OF GREECE

In an art gallery in one of the
cities Of America, is a statue OF Vic
tory, the most marvellous piece of
sculpture in all the world. Standing
poised as if to step forward over
the threshold of great things, with
head lifted high, and all the strength
and beauty and idealism of the Greek
nation seeming to have been en-
bodied in this exquisite marble, this
copy of the statue by Greek sculp
tor seemed to typify the history of
that marvellous people, who have Civ
en- to the world so much Of beauty
and of heroic endeavor.
Greece is suffering today under the
cruel heel of war, but the same spir-
it that is translated into marble in
that wonderful piece of sculpture,
has caused the nation to face every
disaster with high courage and a
marvellous fortitude.
1t was the Greek poet, Homer, who
said: zone omen only is significant
to fight for ones country"
And it is this indomitable and loyal
spirit which has given to Pensacola
its splendid host of Greek citizens
who have sworn their allegiance to
their adopted country's flag.

OF RED
CROSS HOSPITALS AND CORPS

In any consideration of the matter
If Red Cross hospitals the distinction
should be borne in mind between the
various classes of hospitals which
take part in the service of the rescue
and care of sick and wounded of
armies. It is divided into three zones;
the first zone being called the service
Of the front, and extending from the
line of battle back to the field and
evacuation hospitals. This zone is OPP
Grated BY the medical service of the
army and Red Cross organizations do
not usually take part in it. The sec
and zone is that of the military base
TO which the wounded are brought
from the first zone, and where they
first meet at the base hospital the
comforts and facilities of a real hos
pital which has good beds, trained
women nurses and a large profession
Al staff. The third zone is that of the
home country and the hospitals or
ganized, whether established by the
army or navy from existing civil hos
pitals in the city are called general
hospitals in their home city.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-04-19
A base hospital, when called into

A base hospital, when called into
service, is moved to the place where
the military authorities need it. 1t is,
however, organized in a large civil
hospital which is usually referred to
as the mother" hospital. This is re-
quired in order that the unit may be
composed of doctors and nurses who
are accustomed to work together and
have already the spirit of unity and
organization. If, on the contrary, it
were permitted to enroll a base hos
pital from doctors and nurses attach
ed to various institutions or in pri-
vate practice, it would be without CO.
hesion and unit only in name, and
would be in fact only list of names
of little immediate value. The creation
of these large and complex organiza-
tions is military matter and also
professional one and is therefore new
er delegated to chapters, but is done
in definite way which has the ap-
proval of the war and navy depart
ments.
The Red Cross military units, ex-
cept the sanitary training detach-
ments are not organized by chapters,
but the chapters have nevertheless
a definite and important function in
relation to them, namely, the pro-
vision of the funds for the purchase
of the equipment One of the first
conditions, therefore, for the success
full organization of a base hospital
or ambulance company is the exist
ence or the establishment of strong
local chapter. In the cases where a
hasa hosnita1 is ORGANIZED fhe local
chapter raises the money for the
equipment of the hospital. The beds,
furniture, instruments, ETC., cost $685.
600, and in addition the women's COM
nittees contribute hospital garments,
bed linen and surgical dressings to
the value of about $4,000.
