young fellow who had been in the service during the war, but now has re- turned to civilian life, said, laughingly, to me: Mrs. Best, if I had on my uniform we could carry two more com fortably. because two girls could sit in my lapr There's the idea-express- ed in nutshell when the men had on their uniforms everything was per missible and everybody was doing something for them. Now, that they no longer wear the uniform, are we to cease efforts? They think so and they don't like it. Must we let them go back to the dance halls, burlesque shows and those forms of entertain ment instead of the healthy, whole some recreation we provided during the war? As young Chicago sol- dier asked me: Must we now slump back into our old ways after our eyes have been opened to the real things of life? This is a question which the Drama league must answer
 "We read of the unrest, of the rise of bolshevism and that sort of thing" Mrs. Best said "Anarchism is only the result of such condtions-unrest gloom and despair; uneXpressed desire, and if we can create an atmosphere of sym pathy and comradeship among people don't mean by this levella;r classee. for personally I do not approve of that, but to create wider sympathy and more perfect understanding we shall thwart bolshevism and dwell together in peace. I don't want to leave the inn pression of an 'uplift' work that is not the idea of the Drama League at all, but to create and preserve an equal ity.
 Let me tell you something that Pro lessor Dennis of the Northwestern uni versity of Evanston told me" Mrs. Best continued, concerning bolshevism. He has spent the past several months ir Russia and he declares t.,at two thirds

 We also wish to express our thanks to the newspapers who so generously print notices when we are seeking to locate soldiers or their families and other helpful notices.
 So many interesting and beautiful things are happening in our office at 235 Brown Marx building, that we want you to know about them.
 Several months ago, one of our visit ors called on soldiers family and found that among other woes, there was what appeared to be a mentally afflicted sister. She could not talk intelligently. did not seem capable of thinking and did not have control of the members of her body. A prominent physician was interested in her and, after weary weeks of treatment, her aflment has proven to be simply d question of nerves, and she is now able to talk, and is able to think and to control her movements. In fact. We are so encouraged that we feel she should be given an opportunity to learn, and are hoping to find some body capable of teaching. who can spare few hours week to teach this ambitious girl to read and write.
 The government has established a courier system for the purpose of se- curing information about the soldiers whose families have not heard from them for an unreasonable length of time. A form, giving the military ad dress, etc. of the soldier, is forwarded to Washington, is taken overseas by messenger, the investigation made and direct word from the soldier brought back to his anxious family. Through this service. thousands of minds have been relieved.
 Very recently most forlorn looking soldier and two wretchedly dirty little children came to the office and we learned that the mans wife had just died down in Mississippi and he was on his way to his mothers home in Tennessee, but lacked sufficient money to get there. Everyone set to work to straighten out the difficulty. The children were washed, the little girls sore toe attended to, soft shoes pur- chased for her and with belated breakfast in their little dummies the poor little motherless ones acquired new aspect of life and waited con-

MRS. MULLEN IN CONCERT

Friends of Mrs. Marie Kern Mullen will be interested to learn that she is now touring the west with the The obaldi Concert company. The following appeared in the Music News:
 Voices come and go in Chicago and many are those which have some spe- cial points to recommend them and also plentiful enough is the number Of those which should never seek an outlet in this busy and critical musical cen- ter.
 'The voice of Marie Kern-Mullen is not, however, of the latter kind, for it is exceptional In every sense of the word and also it is joined to a person. ality and an intelligence which cer- tainly will make 1t known throughout the city and will give its possessor much success.
 Mime. Kern Mullen is striking in ap- pearance and very strong in personal ity and intelligence.
 Her enunciation in each language she employs Is clear and definite and her conception of each song is clean cut and always convincing.
 Her voice is contralto of great range and power and it Is also of refined and thoroughly agreeable quality.
 "On last Sunday afternoon at the Three Arts club she sang first, "Ah. Love of Thy Might Samson and De- lilah) In French and gave the fine. big song a really noble interpretation.
 Later she presented Yesterday and Today (Spross), Lullaby (Scott), and When the Boys Come Home.'
 "In the first she was very dramatic

 When the day of reckoning comes, our crown of glory is not going to be composed of stars for the showy things we have done during our lives. but for the little kindnesses that have been performed without ostentation, and there are many grocery men in Birmingham who run the little stores just around the corner who are to re- ceive their share of this resplendent glory because of their kindnesses to families whom the home service is seeking to relieve. as they frequently offer to reduce the bill 10 per cent, which in these days of extreme high cost of living Is a considerable help to

OVER ONE MILLION JARS OF VAPORUB PRODUCED
 EACH WEEK

It is with pride that we announce to the drug trade that the shortage Of Vick's VapoRub. which has lasted since last October, is now overcome. since January 1st, we have been running our laboratory twenty-three and half hours out of every twentyefou last week we shipped the last of our back orders and retail druggists. therefore. are no longer requested to order in small quantities only.
 NOVEMBER DEAL REINsTATED
 This deal, which we had expected to put on last November, and which had to be postponed on account of the short age of VapoRub. is reinstated for the month of March. This allows a dis count of 10 per cent on shipments from jobbers stock of quantities of from to gross. per cent of this discount is allowed by the jobber and per cent by us.

 THANKS OF THE PUBLIC DUE THE
 DRUG TRADE DURING THE
 INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC
 The thanks of the American public are certainly due the entire drug trade retail, wholesale and manufa curing for what they accomplished during the recent influenza epidemic. The war caused a shortage of physicians-nursss were almost impossible to obtain-the pected and overwhelming, and to this demand they responded nobly. Retail druggists kept open day and night and slept where they dropped behind the prescription counter. Wholesale drug gists called their salesmen off the road

to help fill orders-hundreds wired us to ship Vick's VapoRub by the quickest route, regardless of expense. A TREMENDOUS JOB TO INCREASE
 OUR PRODUCTION
 In this emergency we have tried to do our part. We secured the country for raw materials-our traffic manager spent his days riding freight cars in lots by express and pleaded with manu- lecturers to increase their deliveries to us.
 But it was a slow process. Some of our raw materials are produced only i'll Japan-supplies in this country were low and shipments required three months to come from the far east. Then ye had to recruit and train skilled labor. We brought our Salesmen into the fac tory and trained them as foremen. We invented new machinery and managed to install it on Christmas day. so as not to interfere with our daily production. 14s JARS OF yAPORUB EVERY MIN
 UTE DAY AND NIGHT
 By January 1st we had everything since then our laboratory has been run hing day and night.

 13 MILLION JARS OF vAPORUB DIS-

 An idea of the work we have accom- plished this fall may be given by our production figures-13, 3,02S976 jars of VapoRub manufactured and distributed since last October-one jar for every two families in the entire United States.

WORLD POLICE
FORCE PLANNED

LONDON, Dec. 19.-Creation OF
| an international police force is sug.
gested by Major David Davies, a
member Of Parliament. He told the
Grotius Society that each nation
should have a sufficient army to
maintain internal order and furnish
it's quota when the League of Ma
tions REQUIRED 1t; that no nation
should employ new weapon of war;
and that each nation should provide
the League of Nations with an ade-
quate force for immediate use.
These units should be concen-
trated in different parts Of the
world and the naval portion similar
ly constituted. Poison gas, war
planes, submarines, heavy artillery
and tanks should be ceded to the
League to form the headquarters
force and no state should be allowed
to own them or to make use of any
new invention for war-like purposes,
he said.
Major Davies said the greatest
resistance to the suggestion prob
ably now would be found in America
(which was the more saddening be-
cause the President of the great re-
public was one of the earliest and
most powerful exponents Of the prin-
ciples Of the League"
