GASOLINE SHORTAGE IN VIEW

Today much thought is given to the gasoline problem. Auto mobile manufacturers. as well as oil producers and refiners realize that a shortage of gasoline will come unless new fields are dis covered. In the mean time they recommend that the stYietsst economy be practicsd in the use of gasoline and other petroleum products.
 The automotive engineers. as well as the oil producers and re- liners. realize the seriousness of the gasoline problem and they are constantly bending every effort to devise automobile en- zines and methods of carburiza- ton which will secure the opera ton of automobiles on grades of gasoline that will permit the maximum production of this motor fuel from each barrel of crude oil, and which. at the same time, will give the greatest power and mileage from each unit of gasoline consumed. All this attention to the problem is helping to a marked degree. yet consumption is increasing much faster than production.
 The gasoline of today is not as highly volatile as the gasoline of some years ago, yet it is more powerful and gives greater mile age. It's use is made possible by the Improvements in automobile engines and methods of carbur- ization. To go back to the gaso- line of ten years ago would be to accept a more highly volatile, but less powerful gasoline giving less mileage. It would also re- suit in decreasing the production of gasoline.

INCREASE NUMBER
 OF 'lY WORKERS
Five Months After Armistlce Signed Welfare Body Has s,35o
 cover There"

Five months after the signing of the armistice the Young Mems Christian association had S,350 workers over seas, according to an official statement issued by the national war work coun- ell of the association. The figure shows an increase of 726 workers since last November, indicating that the Y. M. c, A. has strengthened it's forces, despite the return of troops to Amer ica, to meet the greater need for it's work that came with the end of the fighting.
 Of the total number, 5,528 are men, small portion of whom are directing the 'Y" overseas work from the Paris headquarters, while the great majority are scattered from Archangel to Rome, and from Vladivostok to Brest and London and the north of Scotland. There are 2,1S7 women workers abroad. Most of these are helping to give pleasure to the men who go to the at Ak les Rains, at Cauterets in the Hautes Pyrenees, and elsewhere. More than 40 are assisting in the notion picture entertainment of the troops.
 In the. overseas entertainment bu- reau of the war work council there are 635 men and women workers abroad. Of these, 352 were recruited by the Overseas Theater league work ers-125 men and 227 women. The remainder, 283, were enlisted by the "Y" entertainment section.
 Since the beginning of its overseas work, the '. M. c. A. has sent 11,229 men and women abroad -9.338 men and 2,891 women. Of these, 2,645 men and 234 women have returned, eleven were killed in action, three died of wounds and 56 from disease and other causes.

KEROSENE A MOST
 CONVENIENT AND
 ECONOMICAL FUEL

The muss and dirt of a coal or wood cookstove add to the burden of the house. wife. Coal dust seems to get everywhere and itmeans continual work to keep a kitchen clean when coal is used in the stove.
 All this trouble is done away with when kerosene is used as a fuel. It is clean and convenient and makes far less work for the house wife. In addition to this, it is more economical than either coal or wood.
 A good kerosene like the Standard Oil Company's Pearl Oil makes a distinct s a in g, not only in the household budget but also in the time and energy of the housewife Pearl Oil gives excellent results as far as good cooking is concerned is concerned and when it is used the kitchen never be- comes overheated. A good cookstove with Pearl Oil will bake, broil, roast, and toast economically.
 EHaving been refined, and refined by a special process, the impurities are removed from Pearl Oil so that it burns up clean and produces no odor.

Y. M. c. A. ENLARGES
 WORK IN RUSSIA
Doubles Personnel in Non-BoIshevik Sections - Large Sums
 Being Expended.

An urgent cable has been sent from Vladivostok to the Y. M. O. A. na- tional war work council headquarters in New York requesting that 100000 feet of up-to-date English comedies and dramas and an enormous reper- toire of Russian titled films be rushed to that part in addition to 725 reels of committee on public information edu- cational films.
 In response to appeals made by the Omsk government and other allied authorities, the Y. M. 0. A. has doubled its personnel in non-bolshevik Russia, and has enlarged the scope of its work proportionately. There are now. 97 American Red Triangle workers in Siberia and 50 on the arctic front in European Russia. In addition there are more than twice this number of Russian and Czech secretaries.
 The national war work council is now expending $150,O00 a month for r. M. c. A. work among allied and American troops in Siberia, and an additional $50,0O0 month among the troops in northern Russia.

DEMOBILIzATION OF "Y MEN NOW
 AT A STANDSTILL
Only 400 Remain in Southern Depart nnent-ActiVlty on Mexican
 Border.

San Antonio, Tex-DemobilIzation ofsArmy Young Mems Christian asso- citation secretaries in the Southern Mill itary department has about reached a standstill for the present, according to J. Fl. <Eckford, departmental supervisor of personnel. About four hundred wearers of the Red Triangle remain in the six states composing this depart ment, more than six hundred having been released since the signing of the armistice. It is believed that, with the numerous camps in the department demobilized down to practically the smallest possible working force, cou- pied with the demands of the regular army men and the returning soldiers from overseas, there will be need for at least four hundred secretaries for at least several weeks.
 Seventy secretaries are serving the towns and outposts along the Mexican border, this phase of Y. M. c. A. ac- tlvity having been materially enlarged since the armistice. Apparently 2,0OO miles of border territory is now being covered, the greater part of 1t by itin- erants in light delivery cars, in which the secretaries carry a full supply of books, stationery, portable motion pie ture machines, athletic equipment. In a number of the isolated villages where troops are stationed the r. M. c. A. hut is the only entertainment feature and the soldiers share their privileges with the civilian populations. Every border outpost is now being reached by the ''Y" men, and the work will con- tinue as long as there are soldiers to serve.

100000 BABIES

RESULT NEGLECT

THE United States lost approx
mateIy $4,000 men killed in battle
during the months the United
States was actively engaged in the
war. During the same period OF
time 100000 babies died. Approx
imately 100000 babies die in the
United States each year; IS per
cent of these deaths are preventa-
Bile. During the war the people of
Rock Island put every ounce of
their energy behind the Red Cross
and other organizations in order TO
keep wounded men from dying and
to keep healthy soldiers we'll. The
Red Cross Is now setting out to
keep babies from dying and to keep
healthy babies we'll; and all it asks
is that the people of Rock Island
and every other community put
their membership behind it; Its
efficient organization and willing
workers will take care of the rest"
The Rock Island Red Cross chap
ter puts these facts before citizens
OF this city in order that they may
know one of the big reasons why
their enrolment as Red Cross
member for the coming year is a
thing of vital necessity.
The American Red Cross can do
only what its members wish it to
do; its members and the funds
they voluntarily contribute are the
