He declar ed that infant mortality was not re ally medical problem. but a social problem of motherhood and quest ion of racial morals.
 During his address Dr. Saleeby quo ted figures showing that despite bad housing, bad sanitation and virtu ally no child welfare efforts. infantile mortality in Western Ireland was only B per thousand as compared with 135 in 1000 in Bradford.

LOOKING FOR OIL
Wide Search Is Being Made For New Fields Owing to the
 Increasing Prices

PITTSBURGH. Feb 20.-The ad crude oil to $5 barrel will result in the widest search for petroleum this section has known since the early days of the "oil excitement, according to authorities in the indus try here.
 Already it has started, and leases are being taken on territory which was drilled over more than half q century ago and then abandoned fol more productive fields. Drilling has been commenced in some of these leases, and results have been so good as to encourage others. One field in Allegheny county, abandoned in the early seventies because the one well drilled proved to be "duster," has produced number of wells the past few months.
 "The greater part of this devel opment will be in Western Pennsyl vania and West Virginia" explained the head of a large corporation which Has UepH ueNtlOlluS Oil itIlllOIy lO1 many years When oil was only 2 dollar a barrel one had to bring in |; good we'll before he had a paying proposition Now with oil at B : barrel it pays to drill a lot of wells even though they only produce bar rel or two day. We reduce ex penses by connecting these smal wells to one power plant. and pumr ing them very thoroughly. While the initial cost of drilling is high, abou three times as much as in the ole days, economies of operation and the princely price of crude, make hunting for the Pennsylvania grade a pretty profitable investment.
 The companies engaged in this work are unusually old time organ izations which have not stock fol sale and which cover thoroughly witt leases all the territory in the imme diate ncighborhood of their opera tiOns.

WiNSOME LILA LEE SCORES IN PLAY AT COLISEUM

Sweet. winsOme Lila Lee scored a veritable triumph in "The Secret Garden" her new phOtOplay based upon Frances IIodgson Burnetts cele brated novel of the same name, which was presented before an enthusiastic audience at the Coliseum theatre last night. There is nothing that is com m0nplace about ''The Secret Garden. It is beautiful story, told with dis tinction, directed by an artist, and played by an excellent company, with little Miss Lila easily carrying of the acting hOnOrs.
 The picturi2at;on was made by Marion Fairfax from Frances Hodgson Burnett's famous story It shows how a little girl. who has been reared by parents who were unk.nd toN her, is brought to an old English house. She is literally starving for love, and all the cruelty and worst side of her child nature have been brought out by her asso citation with wild men and beasts.
 In the English house curious con ditions are brought to her notice She finds a boy who thinks himself a cripple, and who is made to think he is incurable by his uncle, doc tor, who hopes to inherit the large estate to which the boy is the logical heir. The little girl, Mary Lenox gets this boy out into the sunshine and convinces him that he is not ill The spirit of love and helpfulness are awakened in her Gradually she brightens the cold. unattractive house, even wedding out and re planting the secret garden, which the owner of the house has kept locked since his young wife died there years ago. And in the end we find the apparently crippled boy made whole snd wearing the nn. form of an English army lieuten ant, while Mary Lenox is about tc become his bride.
 The appeal of this story is tre mendOus. and its moral value is brought out to the full. But the story always takes precedence ove, the lesson. the picture is never preachy It is entertaining through - out, and is enlivened with charmine touches of comedy. as
 Miss Lee gives us her best piec5 of acting in the character of Mar, Lenox. She shows the change fl the child's nature. bringing out the differences and the easy. gradua growth of Mary Lenox. as the lit tie girl comes to recognize spiritua values.
 Miss Lee will be seen for the las time tonight in "The Secret Garden.

SPORT AT RANDOM

While athletes in almost every form of sport will represent nearly every country on the globe during the Olympic Games at Antwerp. Bel gum, this year, a recent survey oi the field of sports in Spain does no, of Spanish representatives in many of the events on the varied program All efforts to wean the Spaniaro from his national pastimes of bull lighting and pelota have met with scant favor so far. He may say that bullfighting is conducted mainly foi Foreigners on Spanish soil but jus; the same if all foreigners in thal country were gathered together they
 would form only Very small pro portion of the crowds which flock to 'laZa de Toro in Madrid and other bull rings throughout the country on Sundays.
 By getting together quite a large stable of thoroughbreds, King Alfonso has endeavored to interest his people
 n horse racing and with the sup port of some of his weathier sub iects has succeeded in organizing race meetings at Madrid. Barcelona Santandar and San Sebastion from Spring until Autumn. Rich prizes both in money and plate in addition Q the Kings patronage as a regular attendant fail to attract many pat. rons. From Eastertide until Nov ember each year, however. the bull rings are generously patronized in marked contrast to the attendance at
 he counter attractions on the race courses every Sunday during the sea. son.
 Golf is played in the vicinity of she Spanish cities by foreigners and Spaniards who have lived abroad Causual interest only has been aroused in the Scotch game, how, ever so far as the public is concern ed. Last January this diffidence was Illustrated forcibly when the final match round for the Kings Cup was played on the Madrid links last Jan, uary and leading newspaper an. nounced that fact the following morn, 'ng but failed to mention either the name or score of the winner.
 Attempts to introduce tennis and football have not produced national following as yet and as for boxing some of the newspapers have criti cized it severely as q brutal pastime Polo is played to some extent but this is due to the proximity of the British garrison at Gibraltar rhd the encouragement given to 1t by King Alfonso and several noblemen but il is not game for the general public
 Association football was introdu ced to Spain about 20 years ago and it is now popular amongst the young CT generation. This invigoratine past time seems to be gaining fay or every year and some look upon il as possible rival of bullfghting ii the future.

WILL NOT SURRENDER KAISER
SAYS it Will Take Army to Get For
mer Ruler.

Washington, Jan. 25-Cnless Great
Britain actually invades Holland ana
takes the former kaiser by force, VIII
liam of Hohenzollern will never be
brought to trial, in the opinion OF Of
ficials and diplomats here.
These officials discount the report
that the kaiser will be tried in his
absence for the reason that he has al
ready been tried and found guilty by
all OF the allied nations. 1t is regard
cd here as conclusive that Holland
has so rebuffed the allies that diplo-
macy undertaken 10 effect the surreh-
der of the kaiser is no longer feasl-
BILE.
In addition it was pointed out here
today, that the allies, even before the
dispatch of their note demanding the
kaiser, knew that Holland in all IT'S
history had never surrendered po-
litical prisoner. Therefore. the dl-
plomatic opinion here is that Lloyd
George simply pressed for the surren-
der of the former monarch in order
In square himself with the British
electorate and with the treaty when
he himself had framed. He will now
be in a position to say that he trled
10y every available method 10 brlhs
about the surrender OF the one time
German monarch. and that Holland
has practically declared that the only
wa. 10 get him out is for Germany
to make The request. but even I'M
der the laws and traditions OF the
Netherlands such a surrender would
only b.. granted ON CONDITION that
tho nxtradited person be not tried for
political ui!"n$".
