Automobile Figures

The unexpected has happened in the
automobile registration for 1870. the re-
ce:pts having fallen behind those for
the same period of 1919. The figures on
April of last year were s25acS634 and
on April last s225S. 4S5 80. or s6po.s4 less.
This may with almost absolute certainty
be laid at the door of the storms and
bad travelling. The registration On April
) yesterday took. squirt and with any
decent prospects OF better road condi-
lions will now go on increasing until
the summer height of the work is reach

OrUiLLe Harold Sings
in Opera at MIIrGt

orville Harold. Indiana's tenor, came
into his own in his home state last eve
ming when he sang "Rudolfo" in LA
Bohene' at the Murat theater with the
Scott Grand Opera company.
Harrold's entrance was so inconspicu-
Gus. so in the picture, that it was not
until he came to his big aria near the
close Of the first act that he gave his
magnificent voice a chance to show what
it could do.
The opera as a whole can be considered
a success, although the cafe scene was
rather ragged.
Hr Carlo Peroni, the conductor,
seemed so afraid the chorus would drag
that he kept his orchestra almost beat
ahead all the time, which made a Jagged
effect musically.

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 Ameri-
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 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-
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 welr 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 pub
lie comfort stations Is being met. Play
grounds for the children have been
established and recreatIonal 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 II to lend a hand everywhere
and take the lead only where. neces-
sary.

MANICURISTS HAD HARD JOB
Captive Numidian Lion StrenuousIy
Objected to Necessary Operation
of Nail Cutting.

Ten men and considerable maneuver-
ing were necessary to manicure the
nails of Nero, the big Numidian lion
at the Cincinnati zoo recently, says
the Columbus Dispatch.
General Manager Sol Stephan found
nails Of Nero's forepaws had not been
manicured for three or four years.
In the jungle manicuring is not nee
essary, because the earth Is soft, but
the cage floor is oak and the nails
become ingrown.
Nero objected as strenuously as pos
sible, but the operation was COM
pleted with the aid of blacksmith
nippers. Biting the iron bars of his
cage during his rage would have in
jured Nero's teeth and to prevent
that a piece of soft wood was thrust
between his jaws when he showed a
disposition to bite.

JUNIOR RED CROSS
ACTIVE IN EUROPE

Garden seeds for Polish orphans,
milk for anaemic Greek babies, car
penters' tools for Czecho- Slovakian
cripples-these are only few of the
gifts that young Americans are send
ing to the war-crushed children of the
Old World.
Through the Junior Red Cross the
boys and girls of the United States
are giving a fresh start In life to little
war orphans scattered all over Europe.
They have set up orphans homes In
France, school colonies in Belgium and
Montenegro, and day schools in AL
bania.
They are sending dozens Of young
Syrians, Montenegrins, and Albanians
to American colleges in Constantinople
and Beirut, and maintaining more than
a hundred orphans of French soldiers
at colleges and trade schools. In or
phanages and farm schools up and
down the peninsula Of Italy there are
nearly 500 wards of American Juniors.
Last winter a thousand French chill
dren from the inadequate shelters Of
the devasted regions were sent by the
Junior Red Cross to spend the cold
months in warmer parts of France.
At the same time five thousand little
Belgians were having hot lunch every
day at Junior Red Cross school can
teens.
American school children have al
ready raised something like a million
dollars for these enterprises, and they
are still hard at work.
In China, through campaigns of ed
ucation, the Junior Req Cross is help.
ing to combat widely prevalent blind
ness and cholera.
