The Washington times., 1918-10-09

The appeal was put on a patriotic
and humanitarian basis. and Commits
sioner Brownlow said he felt sure his
request would meet with hearty CO.
operation. His statement follows:
at is extremely dangerous under
present conditions not to have heat
in apartment houses or homes on
these chilly mornings.
'T cannot understand how the most
hard-hearted and most shameful prof
iteers can send his tenant to Untimely
graves by refusing to furnish heat
for the sake OF saving a little money
of their coal bill
Il am sure that such a man, II he
exists in the District, will be visited
with the condemnation of all right
thinking men and women.
81 am advised by the District health
officer that on cold mornings and
evenings heat is necessary. No ac-
ton beyond this public notice should
be needed for the most parsimonious
landlord to start his furnace.
"One case of an apartment house
owner refusing to furnish heat, with
persons in the apartment i'll, has
come TO my attention. l trust this
will be the last and only case so re
ported. The temperature of living
rooms and living apartments should
be an near IS degrees fahrenheit as
possible"
The matter was brought to the at
tenIion of Commissioner Brownlow in
a letter from Capt. Julius l. Peyser,
in charge of the Health and Housing
Division Of the War Department. Sew
eral instances OF unheated apart
ments have been reported during the
recent cool spell, according TO Cap
tain Peyser, and the District Com
missioners were asked to issue an

WOMEN ENLIST TO
BATTLE WITH GRIP

In France when a man rushes into
the face OF death with never a care
for his own welfare, they give him
the Croix de Guerre. But. right
here in Washington. women are
volunteering to nurse influenza
patients without hope OF reward
other than that which comes with
knowledge CT a duty performed.
From the moment that the Red
Cross, the District Health Department
and the United States Public Health
Service sent out their appeals for
volunteer workers. a constant stream
of willing women have presented them
selves at the newly opened recruiting
station in tn old Commercial Bank
building, Fourteenth and L streets
northwest. Many have had little eX-
perience, just that which comes to
the average woman in taking care of
her own family. but all are eager to
serve IN whatever capacity the Red
Cross thinks best
Miss Fanny +. Clement, herself a
Red Cross nurse, is in charge of the
recruiting of these women. More
than fifty presented themselves at
her desk today. All seem to have
buN OIlt lutd NfN want u Dt bl
service. Many offer to go into the
homes and do the housework and take
care of the children in cases where
the mother is prostrated with the in
fuenZa.
They realize the nature OF the disease
and its deadly infectiousness. They
know that nurses and even doctors cN.
posed TO the disease have contracted it
and have died of il. None OF these facts
deters them. Some are women OF
wealth, others have only moderate
means. All seem TO want to prove that
the American woman never fails nor
hinches when the emergency calls.
Al Twill be equipped with the sani-
tary masks and every precaution will
be taken to protect them while they
are at work. Miss Clement wants
every one to feel that every sort OF
service is needed and appreciated.
Some one to run errands-some one
else to drive a car and take the nurses
and supplies to places where they are
needed-willing hands and a good
heart being just as much in demand as
expert services.

.,s Modern Poetry.

Poetry, like every great force, has Followed an evolution of its own, and as 1t comes to us today we may trace in 1t this general tendency. It has tended away from the epic and the 'ex- pression of broad communal or na- uonal feeling, and expresses now far more than 1t did. in far more subtle and intricate directions, the feelings of the individual. If 1t gives voice on public. national or international events 1t does so from a far more specialized and personal point of view than of ole. and with something of the acerbity and narrow intellectual outlook of the party politician. The strength of mod ern poetry hardly seems to lie fos the future in this direction.

A Fairyland Mine.

To the mineralGgist the Copper Queen mine of Bisbee, Arz., has been for many years kind of fairyIand, yielding rare treasure in copper and lime minerals, of much variety and marvellous beauty of specialization and coloring. A recently opened cavern or grotto, filled with etalactites and stalagmites of delicate green and blue tints, was brought to the notice of Dr. E. O. Hovey before destruction by the miners, and this made possible the transfer of the section of the forma- tion that is now set up among the wonders of the American Museum of Natural History in New York. The grotto thus preserved, in a space 14 feet high and 10 feet square, is lined with some 50 boxes oI carefully col- lected and restored cave material, the outside being roughly built up of lime stone blocks. One stalagmite of the mine cave had been deposited to q height of nearly 14 feet by water drip- ping for an estimated period of 2o,OOO years.
