UP R. R.; HALTED BY RAIN

Buenos Aires, Jan. 10.-Gen-
leral Dele Plane, commander OF
the forces opposing the strikers,
has assumed military Dictator
ship and has taken over all the
forces of the government. This
action, it was explained, in no.
wise constitutes a measure un-
friendly to President lrigoyan.
A general strike was declared through
out the Argentine republic last mid
night.
At / O'Clock this morning thunder
storm and heavy rainfall cleared the
city's streets of idlers and within half
an hour the business center was as
quiet as if the disorders Of the day and
the evening before had not happened.
Those in close touch with the sltua-
tion believed that the respite was only
temporary.
CITY Suffers for Ice.
Early this morning there already were
indications of disturbances in the flow
OF food supplies and other commodities,
especially ice. The temperature Of the
last three days has been nearly 100 de-
grees in the shade, adding to the suffer-
ing of the public, which has been forced
to walk because of the transportation
shutdown.
Serious disorders followed the funeral
Yea.sy-day afternoon of five persons
killed in Tuesdays disturbances. A
thousand or more strikers burned a pas
senger train on the Pacific railway,
which runs near the cemetery. then tore
up the track, paralyZing traffic on the
Trans Andine line.
Burn Fire Apparatus.
They later burned a Catholic church
and the girls school adjoining, throwing
images and pianos into the street and
leaving the 400 girl pupils without dor
mitories. The mob then burned fire
department automobile carrying flremen
to the scene Of the disturbances.
The district police station at the
Vasena Iron foundry was captured BY
armed strikers, but it was asserted at
police headquarters at midnight, that
the station had been recaptured. During
the night the strikers entrenched them
selves around the Yasena plant.
The official socialist party organ, La
Vanguardia, will say this morning that
all the unions have decided to continue
the strike indefinitely as a protest
against Thursdays events and that the
government has disembarked marines
and sailors because it has no faith in
the army.

SMALL CAMPS FOR GIRLS.
Being Developed by Young Women
Christian Association in Vermont

The idea of having small camps for
the girls of a certain county or district
is one on which much of the camp plan
ming of the Y. W. c. A. in Vermont is
TO be built The past week saw the very
first of these Y. w. c. a. centcrs opened
at St. Adams Bay, with Miss Grace
Brooks of st. Adams as director. Twelve
girls are there from five or six of the
small towns of Franklin county, girls to
whom bigger and more distant camps
would be absolutely inaccessible, and girls
to whom a vacation is very real and
new experience. They call their little
colony, Camp Worth While" and the
days schedule looks as though it had
been well named The day begins at 7.l5
with personal inspection and flag raising;
breakfast is at $780, this is followed in
due time by tent inspection and classes
then comes recreation and swimming; din
ner at l2 to ., rest; 2.3O to 3, recrea-
ton; 6, supper; Z, camp fire with stores
$50, bed.
The state recreation director, Miss Edith
lnslieep, is spending some time at this
camp, and the classes are conducted by
leaders from St Adams, instruction being
given in first aid, dietetics canning, n.y.
giene, etc. Practically none of the girls
are from towns located directly on the
railroad, and the opportunity for two or
three weeks camp life with other girls
of the same age is one which the girls are
delighted with Each girl pays a modest
fee for her camp privileges; as this is
purposely low. in order to attract girls
who could not come otherwise, the re-
mainder of the expense must be cared for
in some other way This, an organization
like the y. w. G. A., can he sponsor for.
In other words the Y. w. c. A. under
writes the additional expense, and the
girls hold Scholarships as members of
| such camps
This small camp idea originated in the
state with the Green Mountain camp
Mt West Dummerston, directed by Miss
Grace Holbrook, daughter of Frederick
FIobrook of Brattleboro. Miss Hobrook's
first camp opened two years ago, and last
week is girls from the towns of this dis
trict went into camp there again Miss
| Ilolbrook is very eager to have the idea
spread, and has co-operated with the
Y. w. c. A. in that direction
J While a large central camp for girls
on the same lines as Camp Abnaki fol
boys, will undoubtedly be developed in
the state, there is distinct opportunity
for these small camps for girls, also; ant
Green Mountain camp" and "CamT
Worth While" are all the proofs needed
of that fact.
