ed several copies Of ''The Spirit Of the
Red Cross" the two reel romance
which was released during the Sec
ond War Fund Drive. This picture
may be obtained without rental ex-
pense upon application to the Pub
licity Department..
"The Making of a Nurse" is the tt
tie of the new one reel Red Cross mo-
ton picture now in stock at the
Northern Division headquarters.
This film has been released for the
purpose Of interesting the girls of
the nation in the hospital training
schools. 1t shows every phase of a
Red Cross nurses training from the
time she leaves home to enter the
training school until she receives her
Red Cross uniform and is ready for
over seas service.
Miss EDITH A. Barber, director,
Bureau of nursing of the Northern
Division, indorses this film, and is
confident that through it many re-
cruits will be obtained.
The following correspondence of
the Associated Press, dated Paris,
June 10Th, gives an idea Of the SER
iousness Of the refugee problem in
France, to cope with which the
American Red Cross is rendering ev-
cry assistance in it's power:
"France has 'mothered' more than
100000 refugees imposed upon her
while she was engaged in war, with
the country unprepared to receive a
helpless mass and with but $1,000, 900
population. - oo
handled with system. They have been
distributed over France with as much
foresight, as to their ability to ad-
just themselves, as possible. Each
department has now within it's bor-
ders from 10000 to $4,000 refugees.
when a city is ordered evacuated by
the military authorities if possible
trains are made up for the civil popu-
lation. Groups are formed and the
whole organized into conveys and
their destination determined by the
character of the refugees and the in
dustrial necessities of the section; Of
country to which they are sent.
"The whole is performed by the
centralized French government. The
transfer of refugees from the war
zone to safe place where they can
settle is conducted much as is the
transfer Of the army from one Sec
ton to another. It is done with mil
itary precision, so far as the ex-
igencies of the situation will allow"

the result that Financial Clerk Ad-

CITES WORKERS TRIALS

Every Washington housekeeper who
makes room in her home now for one gov
ernmeRt clerk saves the government $500
in addition to what she realizes from the
rented room, William H. Baldwin, chair
estimated last night.
Mr.. Baldwin called attention to the fact
that the government will have to build
dormitories here for the clerks who can
not be accommodated in the homes of the
city. A dormitory with a capacity of
1000 persons will cost approximately
100000, or $500 per person.
Mr.. Baldwin said these figures bring
out clearer than anything else the patri-
otto duty each Washington housewife can
perform by providing for one newcomer
in her home. Committees from thirty
citizens associations are now making a
houSe-to-house canvass of the city to find
out how many women are willing to per-
form this service and at the same time in
crease their own incomes.
Renting Room Aids q. S.
The more rooms listed in this canvass,
Mr. Baldwin pointed out. the less the gov
eminent will have to spend in the erection
of temporary structures.
The Civil Service Commission is now
making inquiry in the various depart
ments to find out as nearly as possible
the number of clerks coming to Washing
ton between now and July l. The number
has been roughly placed at 10000, and
as many more during the last six months
