American Doctors
 to Make 'Sp0tless Town of Holy Land

up-to- minute American doctors with all the ingenuity and skill of modern medicine, are now in Pales- tine redeeming the land of milk and honey from the disease and unsani- tary conditions that have sapped it's strength for hundreds of years.
 These doctors, many of them noted as among the most skilled surgeons and sanitary experts in the United States, comprise the American Zion ist Medical unit, sent to Palestine by the Zionist organization on@ of America to make the Holy Land a fit jlace to live in when world mass s-emlgration to the Jewish National Homeland opens up on a large scale. This will political future has been settled by a few months at most. The joint dis tribution committee helps maintain the unit.
 They have waged war against the mosquito, responsible for most of driven the disease out of the country. and cleaning out the ancient wells breeding places of most of Pales- tines diseases.
 Hospitals and clinics have been created in the principal cities of the Holy Land-in Jerusalem, Paffa, Tiberas and Safed-and through the $1O,000,00O Palestine Restoration fund being raised throughout the United States by the Zionist Or ganization of America, the work of the unit, now known as the Health Department of the Holy Land, is to be greatly extend ed.
 An army of 5000 women through out the principal cities of the United States, under the direction of Mrs. A. H. Fromenson, head of the Pales- tine Supplies Department of the Zionist organization, with headquar- ters at 75 Fifth avenue, New oYrk tiCy, works in connection with the unit, furnishing supplies for the hos pitals and clinics, and clothes for Palestine's 4,500 Jewish orphans, through their sewing groups. To the war orphans of Palestine, Mrs. Fromenson is known as their "American mother," because through lher organization the children are kept supplied with good-looking, up to-date American clothes.
 No "institutional" clothing is sent to Palestine, every effort being made to send as many varied designs as possible, so that the children will not all be dressed alike, as is character istic of charity clothes"
 To supply newborn babes with clothing, the women's organization has sent the medical unit thousands of layettes, containing twenty pieces of infant apparel, from blankets to safety pins.
 All the work of the medical unit is non- -sectarian, thousands of Arabs and Christians receiving treatment from the hospitals and clinics. The work of the unit is part of the great efforts of the Zionists to make ot Palestine the Jewish Homeland.

Dallas, Texas, Feb. 2S-Political fires are blazing merrily in Texas, where the state and national cam paigns of 1920 already are under way.
 Within the state democratic party, factions are maneuvering for stra- getical positions, preliminary to the bitter battles expected to precede the primaries in July.

 Just how active the American party will be this year has not been deter mined by the public, but the other

Whitewood, S. D., Feb. 2S. Hans Cartenscn, rancher living near here decided recently to take another look at his old hay stack and. as a consequence he has added $1,200 to his bank account.

Practical Joker is
 Fired Upon by
 Frightened Negro

Memphis, Tenn, Feb. 2S-With bull let wounds in his face and neck, Douglas D. Reeves, a merchant of Yum Yum, Tam, is recovering at the Baptist hospital here from the effects of wounds received when he sought to play a practical joke on negro farmer.
 For time it was feared Reeves would die from blood poisoning, but it is now believed that he will re- cover.
 Within a few hundred yards of Reeves store at Yum Yum, is the cabin of Sam Johnson, negro, who has lived in that community all his life. For several days Reeves had told Sam wild stories about demented negro said to be at large in that com- munity Sam was frightened so bad ly that he could hardly sleep at night.
 Carrying the joke still further, MT. Reeves blackencd his face and hands with coal soot one morning, pulled his hat down over his eyes and strodc to Sam's cabin. He knocked on the door.
 "Come on wifi me, niggah; you'se gwine to help me rob that store down the road" Reeves said in his best ne- gro dialect.
 Sam, believing. him to be the de- mented negro, hesitated just long enough to grab pistol and then opened fire. One bullet struck Reeves in the cheek and the other entered his neck.
 Fleeing through the rear door of his home, Sam ran to the Reeves store and gasped the information that he had "just shot a negro robber." White men who started for Sam's house met Reeves returning, with blood streaming down his blackened face.
 Sam was overcome when he learn ed he had, shot his file-long friend. The negro has visited Reeves several times since he has been in the hos pital here.
