lance and of even more dramatic sig.
nificance has been the work of our
foreign units in fighting conditions of
disease and restitution. We ask the
approval of the American people for
this work and accept the duty of help
ing to make clear to them that human.
itarian considerations and self-interest
alike require every possible effort oD
their part to prevent the spread of
conditions prevalent in Eastern and
Central Europe. In this connection I
have recently addressed a letter to
you asking Chapters to make layettes
and clothing for distribution in these
European fields.
Contributions for Overseas Work.
II wish also to make clear our at
titude towards contributions of money
for use in the same fields. While the
Red Cross is not conducting cam!
paign for specific sum for use ini
Europe it wishes the people to under
stand clearly that it is not only will
ing but eager to accept any contribu-
tions, restricted or unrestricted, that
individuals, groups or organizations
may wish to make. 1t is highly i'm
portant that this duty of the Red
Cross be emphasized from now for
ward. II restricted contributions are
made the Red Cross will endeavor to
carry out the exact wishes of the
donors. 1t cannot, however, promise
in every case to do SO, since contribu4
tons might be made for use in field
where the Red Cross does not and
cannot operate. In such cases the Red
Cross will exhaust every effort to get
relief to the indicated field but If I'M
able to do SO it wishes to reserve the
its judgment they will serve the great
est need.
THE basis of our appeal then in
eiudes both peace and war obligations
at home and abroad. We submit our
case to the people on our record of
performance and confidently ask them
to approve it and thus give us their
mandate to 20 on with our program
for the year 1921.

You can avoid the jerky action

caused by the engine firing irregu-
larly caused by poor mixture.
When the throttle is closed and the
car drifts down grade the engine Is
turned over by power other than its
own. A proper charge Of gas does
not reach each cylinder and mistir-

open a little and retarding the spark.

INDUSTRY DOES NOT

DRY that excessive wages are paid in

nave al times marked the presentations

Iha allow movement was especially
ana. nlayed with great beauty of tone
snJ perfection of ensemble. Inciden-
tslIv tbe performance of this master
,Jece OF Haydn makes one wonder
,,betber the composition OF string quar-
tets has advanced materially since his
day. -,
II this question be asked about the
Emanuel Moor quartet, which came next
an tbe program, the answer would be
In the negative. And yet, the com
nosition Is an excellent example of it's
class. being full Of sentiment and skill
fnIlv worked out and the instruments
being used with much knowledge OF
their respective capabilities. The
thematlc material, however, is undc-
niably slight and there Is much Of
tho indefnitenesy 80 dear to the modern
composer in It. Naturally, 1t was finely
psrformed and apparently all that was
in the composition was brought out.
The quartet gave a much more iu-
dividusl reading Of the Dvorak quar-
tst, one which at times seemed to de-
part somewhat from the meaning as
set down by the composer. The first
theme Of the first movement was taken
az O very high rate Of speed and then
there was sudden slowing-up when
the second theme began, the original
tempo being resumed almost as abruptly
a few measures later. The finest play
ing was done in the slow movement, as
IN the Haydn quartet, the tone quality
of all the instruments being of the finest
imaginable. The Chamber Music As
Fociation audiences should soon know
