COLONEL kEAN'S RULING
IN RED CROSS SERVICE.

The Tribune of Washington, D. c.,
July 5, has the following news item:
All American women of German
parentage, will be barred from Red
Cross service, under the terms of an
order issued by Colonel J. r. Kean,
United States medical corps, to direc-
tors of Red Cross hospitals through
out the country. Colonel Kean has in
dicated that the step is necessary, be-
cause women of German parentage
would embarrass Red Cross units going
into service abroad
Colonel Kean, in his letter speaks
of an incident when St Louis Red
Cross unit was prevented from going
to France because one of its members
was of Teuton parentage and the widow
OF a German subject.
Although many women of German,
Austrian Bulgarian or Turkish birth

Colonel Kean, they have been regarded

Shine thou on US, take thou our hand
In thine and deal our steps Alright

Our fathers trusted and prevailed
When we were few and weak and poor,
Fight thou for us when we're assailed
Though now we're stronger grown,

But trust thy wisdom to direct
And in thy mighty strength abide.

The nations rise and states decay,
Breathe thou on us the breath of life
And drive our foes, like chaff, away.

And ruthless death pervades the sea,

PINK DOMINO FOR
The ClJ..''iiiaaL ONLY

The Carnival Association wishes
the public to Understand that the big

auditorium Wednesday night is the
only ball to be given between this
date and carnival by that association.
1t does not wish the fun-loving pub
lie to get any other ball that may
have been advertised confused with
this affair Wednesday night
While the name, Pink Domino,
would seem to imply that dominoes
only will be worn, this is by no means
the case. The directors have re-
ceived information that there will be
many fancy costumes on the floor
that evening. Pierrots, the familiar
figure of French pantomime, Span
ish knights, bull fighters, cloWns and
all the other various characters of
the fancy dress ball, will be in evi-
dence The fun making promises TO
be bit unusual, for, in addition to
the numberless kinds of costumes
that will be represented, extraordi-
nary dancing has been provided for
by the acquisition of Anderson Doug
lass orchestra.
In addition to the fun provided for
by participants, and the wonderfully
attractive scene of coloring procured
for onlookers, the directors have up
their sleeves new and novel fea-
ture that will be uncovered very
shortly. They have persistently re-
fused to divulge, so that the novelty
will be fresh, and so that the tang of
its unusualness will remain up to the
entrance into the auditorium.
