Government Placing Dis
abled Men in Inshtu-
tons Instead Of in
Great Camps
Government Has Use of $780,.
100000 Worth of Institute
tuti0ns for Retaining
purpose

|. Washington, March 14.-By the pol
icy of placing disabled soldiers, sail
ors and marines for retraining in the
existing institutions of the country,
it is figured that the government has
been saved over S25,OOOOOO, which is a
reasonable cost had all the men in
training, and to be trained, be assem-
bled in one or two institutions pro-
vided and controlled by the federal
government. By using the existing
educational institutions, representing
an investment of over S3OO,OOO,0OO,
there is available for the disabled
man an infinitely greater opportunity
than could possibly be given through
any institution inaugurated especially
for this work.
\ The training is now given in the
best institutions of the United States
ranging from Harvard and Yale,
Massachusetts Institute of Technol-
ogy, Case School of Applied Science,
Columbia University, and the various
land grant colleges Of the states to
agricultural schools, scientific schools
and in some instances direct in the
industries. There are, altogether,
some 500 trades, professions, occupa-
tions, callings, and the industries
from which a choice may be made by
the disabled man. He is, by no means,
confined to manual trades and occu-
pations, and the sole animating and
dominating thought and object of the
government, as expressed and carried
out by its agent, the federal board for
vocational education, is to do that
thing for the disabled man which will
insure to him the greatest possibility
for future usefulness, happiness, and
:ontentment according to hfs capabi1-
tiles.
Placing the men in existing insti-
.utions instead of herding them in
great camps of crippled and disabled
men has beneficial effect upon the
men themselves, from a physiological
causing them to lose sight
If their disabilities, to minimize them
md concentrate their attention upon
he capabilities remaining tc them
Ind which are being caprrai;xeI by

Madam Bella Plevsner, a world

tonight at eight o'clock in the Jew

The public is cordially invited to
attend the lecture. Madam Plevsner

wonderful message to give the peo.

Plevsner: Last night the writer had
an experience, real experience, one
of those experiences that stamps IT,.

spirit of ancient Palestine. There
was the fearlessness OF Deborah in
her and the gentleness and charm Of
Ruth.
She is Jewess and comes with

is irresistible. And yet as I looked

Red Cross Wants Clothing
for Stricken Refugees
Now Naked and
Starving

The most comprehensive collec-
tion of used clothing, shoes and bed
ding ever undertaken will be con.
Quoted by the American Red Cross
during the week of March 24-3l when
the American people will be asked to
donate ten thousand tons of cast-off
apparel to the helpless refugees in
Allied countries. The need of cloth.
ing in many lands is one of the most
serious reconstruction problems, but
it is expected that long step to-
ward solving it will be taken when
the thousands of Red Cross chapters
begin their collection of discarded
garments.
Every kind of garment tor all ages
and both sexes, except such as OBJ
viously could not help refugees, is
to be accepted. Since the clothes
will be subjected to the hardest kind
of wear only garments of strong and
durable material should be given.
They need not, however, be in per-
feet condition for there are thous-
ands of destitute women in the re-
covered territory eager to earn a
small livelihood by repairing the
clothing that will be sent to the
needy. In addition to the secondhand
garments there will be accepted piece
goods, light, warm canton flannel
and other fabrics from which to
make clothes for newborn babies,
sheeting and blankets and even scrap
leather which is needed for repair
ing shoes. Woolen goods of any
kind, soft hats and caps for all ages
and sweaters of any kind or size will
be welcomed, while mems shirts and
pajamas that are not longer service
able as such can be turned into child
ren's garments.
The chapters collecting the CLOTH
ing will forward it to a central COL
lecting point whence it will be ship
ped to Europe in vessels of the
European Relief Administration. It
will be distributed under the direct
supervision of American Red Cross
agents.

for example, when 4 or 5 cows

q "scant" evening milking, for
which the dipping vat win in
many cases be given credit.
The observance Of the follow
ing precautionary measures In
the dipping Of milk cows will, by
eliminating the Cause, reduce all
bad effects to q minimum: Be-
fore being driven to the vat, cows
should be allowed to drink free
ly, and the teats should be
creased with vaseline or lard.
Cows should be allowed to walk
at their slow, normal gait, and,
on hot days, restel at intervals
in the shade, to prevent over
heating. Cows should be al
lowed to rest little before dip
ping, and then passed through
the vat as gently as possible,
without abuse or excitement.
Calves should not be allowed to
suck in vat pens or along the
road. Before milking, the udder
and teats should be washed with
warm water and soap, and then
rinsed with clear water.
The observance of these sim
pie precautions will be produc-
tive of results highly satisfac-
tory to the cattle owner, as well
as materially increasing his rel
gard for the dipping vat.

Dartenelle Home
Damaged by Fire

Prompt action on the part of the
fire department this morning pre-
vented the complete destruction of
the home of Mrs. Dartenel1e, across
the track from Fourth Street. This
residence formerly was the home Of
Dr.. w. J. Mcclellan. The fire was
discovered in the attic of the building
and had spread to great extent. An
alarm from box 81 called the fire
boys to the scene, and their good
work succeeded in confining the fire
to the garret of the building, but due
to the difficulty of getting to the
seat of the conflagration, it was some
time before the fire was extinguished
completely.
Besides the regular firemen, a num-
Der of volunteers answered the call,
and worked as hard as any to help
put the fire out The AK man was on
job, and did his best. This particu-
lar fire fighter has a weakness for
smoke, and it is said that when he
gets his hands on an AK, he goes to it.
Henry Randall, one of the volunteers,
suffered a fall from an elevated tram,
spraining an ankle. All of the boys
showed signs of their exertion when
the big truck returned to the station.
Mrs. Dartenelle, the present owner
of the former Mcclellan home, came
here some time ago from White
Castle.
