AMERICAN FLOUR
 SAVES ROUMANIA
Came Just at Time to Prevent an Alarming Spread of Bolshevism Through Nation
ax A....i.,.s rr...


 Bucharest, March 19-(By MaiL) L)-Amer- ican flour and clothing are saving the lives of thousands of destitute people throughout Rumania. The United States food administration has already brought into the country nearly 2o,0O tons of flour, W hile the American Red Cross, which has a large mission established here, is dis tributing clothing and general relief SUD- plies of all kinds among the needy popu- lation.
 The flour from America arrived at a time when conditions were at their worst and when local supplies for the Ru- manian people were almost exhausted. It was feared that the want of food would result in state of bolshevism and rev. olution This American flour has been tremendous factor in preventing the unrest From it's relief stations estab lished at Bucharest, Jassy, Constanza, Galatz. Fossa nj and Pitesti, the American Red Cross is distributing it's supplies, and in every important village Amer ican Red Cross soup kitchen is helping to feed the population.
 Queen Marie, who has taken the great est interest in this relief work, has as- signed Prince Carol to cooperate with the American Red Cross Col. Henry w. Anderson, Red Cross commissioner to the Balkans, said today that three large con- signments of relief supplies had already arrived in Rumania and that the fourth vas already on it's way from Toulon, so that the American Red Cross would soon be able to care for every destitute per- son in Rumania.

NO More Of the Lenten

pressing than April this year could well be imagined. Snow on the ground. fog in the sky and bitter cold in the breezes that blow! It is said that the gulf stream is deserting it's usual channel, and for that reason, the climate of England is changing Certainly the frigidity of March and the depressing weather O. April make one seriously think that there is something very wrong about the ar- judgements that the clerk of the weather bureau is making for us At midnight on March 90 in the midst of a naging snow storm, we put the clocks forward an hour and saluted "summertimer'
 Well do l remember the first summer time" that was inaugurated in the United States last year. I was one of the large party invited by Mr. Marcus N Marks to watch the clock in the great tower in Union square, New York, put forward for the first time in the history of Amer ica It was quite thrilling occasion any everybody sat up rejoicing until 5 clock in the morning. which as most people remarked was not really clock. but actually only o'clock Over here we are so used to putting forward" the clock that, beyond a few grumblings from early risers at losing an hour S sleep automatically, scarcely any notice is taken of what is now considered udllDidl iflStilullOfl. Except III Ireland There summertime is always a period for additional disturbances and many farm CTS and business men steadfastly refuse to make any change in their working hours. The consequence is things are Tn more of a muddle in some parts of that distressful country than they might be even under ordinary circumstances.
 So now we are going out to dinner and setting forth to the theatre and the opera L-x t.~-l.k fact that it is always rather disconcert- ing to assume the full panoply of even ing dress when the sun is still in the heavens, it is undoubtedly a very pleas ant thing to have longer day in which to attend to ones business or ones pleas- ure.
 It is curious how completely London has changed in many of it's social usagei and customs since the war. In England in general. and in London in particular there always used to be a good deal of fuss and insistent convention about keep ing Lent. Few, if any parties were given. theatres counted upon a very '1ean time and royalty was practically in se- cusion throughout the penitential sea son. But nowadays all this seems to ce changed. and apparently beyond going to church twice on Sunday and perhaps once on Friday. the observance of Lent seems practically to have ceased. The theatres have never been so crowded and the opera season. which was inaugura ted al the beginning of Lent at the Theatre Royal. Drury Lane, by Sir Thomas Beecham. is enjoying a period of un exampled success and brilliancy.
 The two fashionsi ble enterta inments that all London is rushing to just now are the Beecham opera season in English, and Lieut.. Col. Robert Loraine's perform ance (also in English) of Edmond Ros- tand's wonderful drama in blank verse, "Cyrano de Bergerac." Lorraine. as 1
