MEETING OF
 PARENT-TEAcHERS Toff tt%
 HELD MONDAY EVENING

} DOUGLAS, Jan. 10.-The regular P. T. A. meeting. which was osched- uled to take place week later than usual because the regular time was too near the holidays, has again been changed and will be held Monday, January 12. This change was due to the fact that another meeting is to be held in Douglas at the same time. However, a very fine program is as sured. One very interesting feature will be a little playlet entitled, "A Camp at Village Forge" by the third and fourth grades. Several other numbers, including songs by Miss Jackson's girls, will be given.
 The main feature will be an ad- dress by MT. Henderson. Everyone on the Island knows how interesting and educational his talks of the past have been and should make an ef- fort to hear him again. As special attraction the patrons will be served light refreshments. F'|
 "A special invitation is extended to all parents and others interested in the school. It is hoped the assembly room will be filled. Everyone be sure to come.

WALLACE REID HAS SPLENDID ROLE IN
 "TOO MANY MILLIONS

DOUGLAS, Jan. 10.- Wallace Reid has the part to which he is best suit cd in his latest Paramount picture. "Too Many Millions" which will be shown at the Liberty theatre Sunday and Monday. As Walsingham Van Dorm, he is first shown as a poor young man trying to make a living selling books. Then comes a bolt from the blue. Two wealthy skinflint uncles of his are suddenly killed in a motor accident and Walsingham finds himself the possessor of a cool 40 millions of dollars by the terms of their will. TT f
 The cool 40 millions, however, make things. warm for Walsingham. In. the first place beautiful young woman, Miss Desiree Lane, shows up and tells him that two millions of the money belong to her. that his uncles robbed her father of it and cansed his death. The next thing to happen is the discovery that Van Dorn's confidential agent, Wilkins, has fled with the 40 millions. See the finish.

educators of the country, and in adopting it we are following the lead of some of the best schools.
 The. inauguration of the supervised study plan will require change in the length of the school day and in the time of the beginning of the af- ternoon session. School for all grades will start at g o'clock, in the mor1i- ing (which is the usual time) and 1 o'clock in the afternon, which will shorten the noon recess 15 minutes. The High school will be dismissed at and all other grades at the usual time.
 The lengthening of the school day and shortening of the noon recess will be more than compensated for in added value of the school to children, who are. after all, the pri. mary consideration. The disadvan- tage of the shorter noon will be largely overcome, it is hoped. by serving lunches at cost to any pupils who live so far away that it is in. convenient for them to go home for lunch.

 One of the greatest failings of the
 public schools has been that a lesson was assigned and then the student was turned loose and had to rely on his own devices in his studying Just as there is a right and wrong waly to do things, there is a right and wrong way to study.

ALL IMMIGRANTS ARE
NOW Being FUMIGATED
Health Officers at New York Are
Taxed by Influx of italians
to This Country.

Hoffman island detention station OF
the New York quarantine service now
has an average transient population
of more than 1000 4 day, due to the
inbound rush of Italian immigrants.
In addition, five doctors attached to
the station have given up all thoughts
of vacation and are working, one Of
the quarantine officials said, to the
limits Of human endurance in vac
cinating, Iumigating and inspecting
prospective citizens and their fam
lilies.
The reason for the unusual condi'
tion at Hoffman island is said to be &
misunderstanding on the part Of Ital-
ian officials and steamship companies
respecting United States health regu-
lations. Travellers from districts where
typhuS and other transmittable dis
eases prevail are supposed to be de
loused," examined and certified as
"clean" by American public health Off
GERS before they board the ship.
These regulations are not being

therefore the work must be done be-
fore the traveller is landed. The ex-
pense Of the work here is charged to
the steamship companies.
During the last week more than half
a dozen ships have arrived from points
where typhus-carrying subjects could
be taken on board. All of these ships
have been detained in quarantine while
the steerage passengers, numbering
nearly 1000 on each ship, were taken
off on barges landed at Hoffman island
and detained tor "a to 48 hours.
During the detention they are COM
PEELED to take a thorough bath. Their
clothing, baggage and effects are fumi-
gated in live steam. From Hoffman
island arrivals are taken to Ellis is
land for examination by immigration
authorities as to, their qualifications
for entry.

AMERICAN RED CROSS
to Give RURAL HELP
Program for Public Health and
Community Welfare Is Now
Well Under Way.

Rural communities and towns Of less
than 5000 population benefit in a very
large part by the public health and
community welfare work of the Aneri-
can Red Cross. Almost all of the
5000 Red Cross chapters have some
rural sections in their territory. There
fore the Red Cross Rural Service.
Briefly, the purpose of Rural Serv-
ice is to assist people to get out of life
more health, wealth and happiness. In
this purpose public health instruction
and general educational progress of
both children and adults play a big
part.
Recreation is found to be one of the
biggest needs in rural life. There is
lack of sufficient play-life for the chill
dren and social life for the adults.
Picnics, pageants, debating clubs,
Baseball leagues, community singing
and other social events which bring
the people of surrounding communities
together have been organized and car
ried on under the guidance of Red
Cross rural workers to great advan-
b III iSiii IcC-
reational problems and getting people
together proves to be the awakening
Of the community to other conditions
which may be improved by united
action.
AS a result of community organiza-
ton, townships in which there had
been neither plans nor interest in
community progress have been organ
lied to work together with the unified
purpose Of bringing their community
up to the most enlightened standards.
Lecture and musical entertainment
courses have been started as a result
of community meetings, as we'll as cir
culating libraries, Red Cross schools Of
instruction in Home Nursing, Care Of
the Sick and First Aid. In the larger
towns the need for restrooms and nub-
lie comfort stations is being met. Play
grounds for the children have been
established and recreatlonal activities
worked out for the year.
In order that there may be concerted
effort In carrying on the programs Of
the various welfare agencies In the
rural districts, Red Cross Rural Serv-
ice helps the organizations already on
the ground. The main object of the
service is to lend a hand everywhere
and take the lead only where neces-
sary.
