DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
IN NEED OF BETTER
SANITARY HOUSING

WASHINGTON, Apr. 9.-Lieut.-Col
John NJ. Swan. of Rochester. y. y.
has returned from the Dominican Re
public anti Haiti where he was sent by
the Insura and Foreign Division OF
the American Red Cross 70 make
medical survey OF sanitary and gen
eral health conditions. Col. Swan re-
ports an urgent need for help in de-
veloping this practically virgin coun-
try.
The island has been OF historical in
terest since the days OF Columbus, and
for the past four years the United
States has taken an intimate interest
in its affairs. Under the administra-
ton OF the Navy and of the Marine
Corps revolutions have been prevented
and outlaw and bandit disturbances
are being held down. Roads are be-
ing built, telegraph and telephone
lines are under construction and pub
lie schools are being opened as rapidly
as revenues permit. Public philan-
thropic measures on the other hand,
are greatly needed.
THE Dominican peasant is in great
need of modern medical treatment and
sanitary housing" said Col. Swan
MANY communities lack all medical
and nursing care. The medical pro-
| fession is small and, with few eXcep-
tions, without adequate training
There are no modern public hospitals
and no nurses. Immediate steps
should be taken to fight social dis
eases, malaria. hookworm and yaws,
to establish anti-tuberculous measures
and TO teach personal hygiene. There
is every opportunity here for the
pioneer in all fields of philanthropic

carbon monoxide gas that emanates
from the automobile. and with no

AT THE PALACE TONIGHT

Cynics speak of beauty as some
thing only skin deep. More reliable
things of this mundane sphere are
those whose matchless beauties re-
main unseen. And now comes one
little film star to prove that both
theories are incomplete
Yet, it is rather difficult to asso-
ciate great physical strength with
feminine beauty-it's sort of incon-
gruous. like a hen crowing-and yet,
you never can tell.
Take fore xample Olive Thomas, the
Selznick star She's very fair to look
upon and though she is far from
the fragile. clinging-vine type, she
isn't exactly the sort of an assistant
you would want for moving piano.
But just recently she fooled EN-
all In one of the scenes in 'Out
Yonder." her newest Selznick Pic
ture. which comes TO the Palace
Theatre today. she is called upon TO
climb a rocky cliff through the murk
of an inky night. waving aloft fam
ing torch.
When the time came for that par
ticular scene. Director Ralph Ince
was rather solieitous about taxing
Miss Thomas strength TO that extent
The beautiful Olive looked al him
quizzically for moment, picked UP
the torch and "hefted" it tentatively,
gave a little chuckle and started to
climb with all the agility of a scared
cat. arriving at the crest OF the cliff
without breathing hard.
Which proves-you never can tell.

TREES

| think that / shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing
breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms TO pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

This is the first time we ever
knew that we would like to have
this country under Catholic
rule" any more than under
Protestant rule. The idea
never has troubled us in any way,
and we regret it has got the Trib-
une so disturbed. True Amer
leans, however, do not care who
rules" this country so that it is
governed in a sane manner. We
have no ruler, but we have a
president who presides over the
nation and endeavors, or should
endeavor, to lead his country in
to channels that will give it
peace and happiness. AS far as
bossing from the pope is concern
ed any letters ordering us around
have failed to arrive as yet after
so years of scrapping on this
planet. So you see, buddy, the
pope does not interfere with us
or our vote in anyway. He at
tends strictly to his own business,
that of attending to the spiritual
welfare of his people. and oc-
casionally asking protestant Ger
many and protestant England
and near protestant France to
stop quarrelling, which they
won't do.
We are delighted to know that
that the Tribune editor is dem
ocrat. We were, too, once in
our infancy. Our first vote was
cast straight democratic, for we

 The color set the tan on the young mans face afire. It was something he had not foreseen--that name would be required; and he had none A pearl worth thousands, but no name he would gladly have given the one for the other.

 "It's-ft's all I have" Pear1hunter-well-t" The banker had his mouth already set to say something more-but he didn't. Instead, he took better look at the tall young fellow on the other side of the window. Dipping his pen into the ink we'll second time, al- though 1t was already overloaded to the dripping point, he went on filling out the receipt. "Just bring this with you when you want your pearl, Mr.-Pearlhunter." 1 And if lose it?'
 "Then-well-just bring your face. Yes, that will do--your face. l reck- l on you won't lose it." The old fellow chuckled as If he had surprised himself making q joke. It usually puts man Tn a good hu- nor to discover that he has made a 1 joke. The banker stood rubbing his bony hands together while the Pearl hunter walked out. l What next? The Pearlhunter stood on the sidewalk outside of the bank door and debated that very question: a question in two parts i; first, whether to go back to Fallen Rock: second, whether to make an'
