PLAN 4O00 NATIONAL
 CAFES IN LONDON

London, December 1.-(Corresponde- nee of the Associated Press.)-Com- munal feeding on a huge scale through the establishment of 4000 national res taurants is planned for London. The project is to be carried out jointly by the national kitchens division of the ministry of food and the National Cater CTS Protection society. The three main points of the scheme are:
 Establishing buying organizations TOT the collective purchase of foodstuffs
 Providing efficient equipment on a cooperative establishment to secure reasonab bie prices and good conditions of management.
 The caterers expected to take part in the enterprise are all members of the protection society and they will be permitted to use for their establish ments the title of National Restau- rant" There will be uniform menus and prices will be fixed at figure to ensure a reasonable profit to the cater CT and yet be easily within the limits of the average purse. A high standard of efficiency and cleanliness will be ex- acted.
 national restaurant recently estab- lished in London has proved marked success. It is making a net weekly profit of $500, and this is pointed to as proof that the provision of cheap, we'll cooked food to London's millions served under bright, cleanly conditions can be made financially profitable.

ELSIE FERGUSON |. COMES ID STRAND
 IN ''PAR|S|AN WIFE,
Wallace Reid Also Appears Last Half of the Week
 in "The Dub"

Beautiful Elsie Ferguson. a great Bir- min gham favorite, comes to the Strand or. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in the picture fans more than any produc- the picturefans more than any produc- ten that this world famous star has ever appeared in.
 The title of the picture is, His Parisan Wife" and is an entrancing romance of a New England lawyer who went to Paris and married girl newspaper reporter.
 In the picture Miss Ferguson wears a wealth of beautiful Paris gowns, and the way she wears them, and the true Pari- sian effect that she introduces into each gorgeous costume makes it the finest dressed play that has been attempted this season.
 On the same programme with "His Parisian Wife" the management offers Billy West, the popular comedian in his newest comedy hit, Rolling Stones, which is said to be laugh producer from start to finish. The Pathe News reel will, of course, be shown as usual, and the big Strand organ will render a special programme. iss Tl1ursJfay,s Friday and Saturday Wal lace Reid, another big Birmingham favor ite, comes to the Strand in ''The Dub '' a play that will interest everybody, for all of us have some one in mind whom we know to be dub" but who could amount to something if they tried, and that's the main idea in this picture.
 With this picture the management an- nounces a Mack-Sennett girl comedy en- titled, "Cupid's Day Off" and it's one of those dandy girl pictures that Mack Sennett has been sending over the plate these last few weeks.
 The mid week edition of the Pathe News will be on the screen, too, and don't forget the big Strand organ will play all the pictures.

GREAT WORK BY
 MEDICAL BRANCH
When Hostilities Ended There Were 2S3,240 Beds in Camps and HOs-
 pitals in Operation
By Associated Press


 General Headquarters, American Ex- peditionary Forces. November 26.-The prodigious effort of the medical depart ment in the army in France is revealed in statistics which the Associated Press is now permitted to make public When. on November H., the armistice suspended hostilities and the great ex- pansion work of the medical depart ment was suspended, there were in op- eration 203,240 beds in camp and base hospitals and convalescent camps with about 100000 of them vacant
 There were on duty in the American expeditionary force at that time 12.- 3SS doctors and 8593 nurses The au- thorized nurse strength of the army when America entered the war was 266 and of doctors 300, figures that testify to the work the medical corps was called upon to perform.
 The disqualification of the army in France is interesting. Basically, 1t consists of mobile organizations. To each division there are four field hos pitals. two evacuation hospitals and one mobile surgical hospital and ir ad- diton there is fixed hosptaliZal ion consisting of camp and base outfits ana convalescent camps, with an su- thorized bed capacity of Is per cent of the strength of the command.
 There are now S5 camp>-hospitals s serving training and billeting areas while for general service and for The trea tr ent of more serious cases and battle casualties there are 115 base hos pitfalls These base hospitals occasion ally are single institutions of from le00 to 3Gc0 beds or are grouped in hospital centers. Twenty such centers of from e5O0 to 15,Oc9 beds are in operation.
 Convalescent camps at the bed rate of 20 per cent of normal hospital beds are authorized for the purpose of gIy- ing as early graduated physical tram ing as possible and IS such camps are ih operation at present.
 The American hospitals are partly in French barracks, school buil,iings and hotels. and partly in constr d.t ed cantonments of demountable buildings All the buildings taken over were re- modelled and outfitted for the purpose lighted and heated and moderrized while the demountable huts are models of their kind.
