FOUR MILLION TONS
OF SUGAR CONSUMED

The sugar industry has occupied
such striaingly conspicuous place
in the country's affairs since the world
war that more than usual interest is
attached to the annual report of The
American Sugar Refining Company,
submitted at the meeting of stock
holders in New York. just issued.
One outstanding fact of 1919 was
the consumption of 4067,671 tons
(2.240 pounds each) sugar in the
United States during the year-an in
crease of more than 16 per cent over
the previous year.
Another interesting development is
that one-half the worlds available
sugar supply during the war came
from the United States and Cuba. The
production of this field for 1919 was
6,173,204 long tons-an increase OF
l,SS2,671 tons over the pre-war period,
and most of this has been in Cuba.
One of the salient features of the
report of President Earl ID. Babst is
as follows:
'An increase in volume of business
done from $200,000,000 TO 100000 ,000
compared with 1918, but the operating
profit of $40 1883 900 remained at about
3 cents on each dollar of turnover, a
margin so narrow as to be very near
an even break"

AT THE PALACE MONDAY

The following is an interview by
Billie Rhodes, star of the Blue Bon
nett" that plays at the Palace Thea
re on Monday:
While enthusiastic Americans were
giving loyal contributions to the ma
tional thirteen million dollar campaign
of the Salvation Army last winter
wondered just why so much stress has
been laid upon the work of the Army
N France and why more stress was
not laid upon the heroic wonderful
work of the Salvation Army at home
in the United States.
| do not lessen by fraction the
sympathetic work of the Salvation
Army's wonderful women in France,
but to me there is Salvation Army
heroine here at home who must never
be overlooked and should never be for
gotten.
The growth of the Salvation Army
in popular affection is an inspiring
thing. 1t is due to the humbleness of
an organization that has hit close to
the old Abraham Lincoln maxim OF be-
ing of the people. by the people and
for the people. 1t has not been d snob-
bish, upstage, head-in-the-air organiza.
ton.
To me the most inspiring women IL
America today are those who have foI
fifty years frequented the lowly places
of America, facing rebuffs and often in
suits, facing perils beyond conception
of the guarded, sheltered people OF
America. Humble and frugal in their
dress, quiet and repressed in their
manner, these remarkable women from
all walks of life have been the silent
heroines of our country expressing the
ideals of service of the wonderful
Booth family-one of the truly great
families in the history of civilization.

IMPORTANCE OF ARDOR
DAY. IS EMPHASIZED
BY STATE FORESTER

Friday. April 3. has been designated
by proclamation OF the Governor as
Arbor Day On this day we are asked
10 plant trees around the home, on
the school grounds and along the
highways. This year the day is to
have special significance in the
planting of memorial trees for those
who made the supreme sacrifice in the
World War The State Board OF Edu-
cation is urging the celebration OF the
day in all public schools and suggest
ng the planting OF memorial trees.
The State Board of Forestry. Balti-
more. Md. will supply the trees from
he State Forest Nursery at cost OF
growing them, and give advice as to
Kinds to use and method of planting
The importance of Arbor Day is
emphasized by the growing scarcity
Of timber and high prices of lumber
We must be tree growers" if we are
o be tree users" And above all Is
he thought that in planting trees we
IRE planting for pcsterity-we are do
ng an unseliish act that will make
he home surroundings, the school
grounds or the highways more beau
iful for those who come after US.
Arrangements should be made well
n advance of Arbor Day in order to
nave the trees ready, the place fol-
planting selected. the holes dug and
.ich soil for filling in about the roots
provided. This Arbor Day should be
me of lasting memory by planting
rees that shall be. in fact, living
monuments for the planters as well a;

NATIONAL CONVT'N.
IN CLEVELAND

The National Young Women's Chris
tian Association of the United States
of America will meet in convention at
Cleveland, Ohio, April 13 to 20. 1920
This will be the first national conven-
ton in five years. A convention was
scheduled for the spring of 1918 but
was postponed TO meet with the Gov
eminent request that unnecessary
travel and expense be abolished dur
ing the war.
These five years have been among
the most important the Association
has ever known With no national
convention, the National Board as in
term authority has carried heavy re-
sponsibilities. From time to time To-
cal and field conferences have been
called, that the National Board might
profit by the opinions expressed there,
but these conferences were, of course.
not authorized to pass legislation on
policies of the Association.
The Y. w. c. A. has received much
commentator for its achievements
during the war. Now it has to cope
with postwar conditions, which offer
many new problems What is to be
he Associations attitude toward the
present industrial situation? Are the
industrial centers which were estab-
lished as part of the war program tc
be entirely discontinued? How car
The new interest and friendlilness
which the war has brought into our
relationship with people of other lands
be furthered by the Association pro
gram? These and many other ques
tons require consideration in the in
dividual associations before the con
vention assemblies.
At the convention each association
is entitled to one voting delegate tt
each one hundred voting members. AL
association of less than one hundred
members has one vote. Delegates will
vote as individual members of the con-
vention and not by instruction from
their associations.
Aside from these delegates from 10
cal associations, the convention will
include as delegates ex-officio mem
hers of the National Board, the gen
eral Secretary of the National Board
one secretary from each headquarters
department and one from each fiel6
committee

BOOKS FOR EVERYBODY"

Trustees OF public. college. and

Delaware, and the District OF Column
bia, gathered for conference in Allan
tic City today and registered their
suppoh to the nationwide library de-
velopment planned by the American
Library Association. Five library trus-
tees from each State served as dele
gates by appointment of the Governor.
Many other trustees from each State
alo attended.
The meeting is one OF series to be
held throughout the country. Other
conferences. which will bring together
representatives of the thousands OF
library trustees, including many in
fuential men and women who are
helping to direct the work of public
and institutional Libraries and are
thoroughly familiar with the good
which Libraries are doing, are expect
ed to give great impetus to the Books
For Everybody" movement. This
slogan has been adopted by the Ameri-
can Library Association for its en-
larged program, which seeks to over
come the lack of library facilities
throughout large sections of the
United States, and to increase the use
fuIness of those already existing.
Library Facilities Needed
Pointing out that men prominent in
business and public life are attribut-
ing many of the present social and in
dustrial problems to ignorance, Am
erican Library Association officials de-
clare that every State needs TO extend
library facilities in rural and indus
trial districts in order to give new
Americans opportunity 10 educate
themselves in American ideals OF
citizenship.
In the States along the Atlantic sea-
board, the percentage of population
not reached by public libraries ranges
from twenty to fifty per cent, accord
ing to the estimate of the y. S. Bureau
OF Education. In extending public lib
rary facilities the American Library
Association will cooperate with ex-
listing State Library Commissions and
other State library agencies.
