his pillow, in which he wrote that he
was going away to make his fortune.

DIES IN maine
Organizer Of Camp Fire
Girls and Originator of
Basketball.

South Casco. Me-, Aug. IA = DR..
Luther Halsey Gulick, of New York, |
organizer and resident of the Camp |
Fire Girls, died suddenly yesterday
morning of heart disease at his camp
here, called Sebado Wohelo. Death
came most unexpectedly, as DR.. GU
lick apparently had been in good
health. He was chairman of the Y.
M. C. A. international committee on
physical recreation until last spring,
when i'll health caused him to give up
work among the soldiers in France
and return to America.
DR.. Gulick, a widely known author
ity on physical culture and kindred
subjects, was born in Honolulu Dec.
4, 1855. He was educated at Oberlin
College, Harvard, and New York Uni
versity. His first position was as
physical director of the Y. M C. A.
at Jackson, Mich, in 1886. In the
same year he was made superintend-
| ent of the department of physical
training for the Y. M. C. A, which
post he held until 1908, when he be-
came director of physical training of
| the schools of New York.
I end three years later, together with
Mrs. Gulick, founded the organiza-
ton which grew to hold the same
significance among girls as the Boy
Scouts among boys. DR.. Gulick at
tempted to raise a fund of 100000 to
start the movement. but subscriptions
fell far short of the goal. He went
ahead, nevertheless, and in three
| years the organization not only had
| become self-supportip& but had es-
tablished branches in ell the princi-
| pal cities of the United States. In
January, 1913, DR.. Gulick was elected
president of the organization he had
founded and continued in that ca
pacity until his death.
He was the originator and first Sec
rotary of the Public Schools Athletic
League of New York the original
branch of the organization which has
since spread to the majority Of the
larger cities of the United States. He
later resigned this position to accept
the presidency of the Playground
Association of America. He was one
of the originators of the game of
basketball which has developed into
O1le VI IIle IllOSL pOpuldF VI oil 4HuOOf
team games in this country.
In 1907 DR.. Gulick became director
of the department of child hygiene
Of the Russell Sage Foundation, from
which he resigned in 1918 to devote
more time to the Camp Fire Girls.
Besides being the author of many
books and magazine articles DR.. GU
lick was a member or director of the
leading physical culture and athletic
j organizations of the country as vel
: as a member of the Olympic games
4 commissions in London and Athens.
The degree of master of physical
training was conferred upon him by
Y the Y. NJ. C. A. Training School at
Springfield, Mass, in 1907.
DR.. Gulick returned from France
last March after several months of
work with the moral evolutionary
forces of the Y. NJ. c. A there. One

SAVE 100000 BUSHELS
OF WHEAT THAT FORMERLY

ton, Provide Seven Extra Loaves
OF Bread for Every American.

BY adopting cleaner thresling meth

fields TO gather grain formerly vast
ed. threshermen and farmers OF the
United States this year saved fully
l6,00000O bushels OF wheat, estimated
as equivalent TO about seven one-pound
loayes Of bread for every person in
the country. This result, accompanied
by corresponding savings of barley.
oats, rye and other grains, Is shown by
reports from 80 grain states 10 the U.
:. Food Administration. Other states,
although not prepared TO furnish deii-
Mite figures of conservation In the
grain fields, report greatly reduced
harvest losses
This rural food saving achievement,
accomplished in scarcely six months
time, was In direct response TO re-
quests by the Food Administration,
which asked farmers and threshermen
TO reduce harvest losses from about
81. per cent--the estimated average
in normal times-to the lowest posi-
BILE minimum. Country grain thresh-
ing committees carried into every
grain growing community the official
recommendation for accomplishing
the results desired.
In numerous Instances drivers Of
racks with leaky bottoms were sent
from the fields TO repair their equip
ment and frequently bad order thresh-
ing machines were stopped until the
cause of waste was removed But In
proportion TO the number OF persons
engaged in gathering the nations grain
crop, cases OF compulson were COM
paratiyely rare. The Food Admins
uaton freely attributes the success OF
the grain threshng campaign 10 pa.

men and their crews. incidentally
grain growers of the United States are
many millions of dollars "in pocket

That there are sixteen thousand
major casualties still unreported to
the next of kin, does not speak well
for the efficiency of the government
news service. An attempt is being
made to speed up the reports, and
during the past week the casualty
lists that are forwarded daily to news
paper Offices have been much larger.
But at the present rate it will take
several weeks to complete the re-
turns. Secretary of War Baker is au-
thority for the statement that there
are sixteen thousand major casualties
yet to be made known, and that there
is much larger number of minor
casualtls representing slight wounds
causing only brief disablement. Con
siderable anxiety can be relieved by
extra speed in getting the reports
