TRACHOMA RACES
THROUGHOUT LEVANT
Blindness Is No Less Prevalent Than
In Biblical Days in Cairo, Jeru-
salem, Damascus, Smyrna.

Constantinople, Sept. 14.-Blindness
is no less prevalent in the Levant than
it was in biblical days. Trachoma is
responsible for most of the sightless
men, women and children who wander
through the streets of Cairo, Jerusalem
Damascus, Smyrna and Constatntino-
pie. Throughout Armenia, Anatolia
and Syria trachoma has been the
malady which has given the American
committee for relief in the Near East
more trouble than all others combined.
Il Is especially bad among children. 1t
RACES in the orphanages where little
Armenians, Greeks, Jews and Turks
have been gathered by philanthropic
organizations which are endeavoring to
nurse war-torn Turkey back TO normal
health.
In an effort to check the ravages of
trachoma and save we'll children from
infection, the American committee for
relief in the Near East is establishing
an eye hospital in ConstantinopIe
where all the trachomatous children
from the various orphanages in the
city will be isolated and given the best
possible treatment for the disease. The
Turkish government has placed a large
hospital with many cottages at the dis
posal of the Americans, rent free and

it viii be stated chiefly by Americans
under the direction of DR.. Blanche
Norton, an American relief doctor who
has just recovered from trachoma
which she contracted while treating
Greek orphans in Anatolia.
The new hospital will accommodate
about 1000 patients.
In addition American relief workers
are working out a campaign against
trachoma which they hope the various
government Of the Near East viii take
up.
The Constantinople eye hospital is
designed as a center from which d
general educational and preventive
campaign against trachoma may b.
launched.
All the reatmeEts so far devised for
trachoma are extremely painful IN.
Blanche Norton, who is just recov-
ering from the malady after five
months of treatment, says the pain of
the daily treatments is so excruciating
that she can readily understand how
frail patients die from the nervous
shock. 1t is the hope of the American
committee that the Rockefeller Insti-
tution, or some similar institution will
devise treatments for the malady
which are less painful and more certain

JAPAN OPENS FIGHT
ON JONES ship BILL
PAUL NJ. WILSON,
NJ. &. A. Staff Correspondent.

San Francisco, Cal, Sept. 14.-Japan
has started war on the Jones bill
The long expected ship rate fight
has commenced, with the japanese
striking the first blow. Believing
evidently, that the best defense is tc
attack, Japanese ship owners are now
slashing freight charges right and left
in an attempt to break the American
merchant marine before it can be
placed on a solid footing.
Cargoes on the Pacific coast to
points not provided for under confer
ence agreements are being accepted at
less than actual cost. American ship
pers see in it an attempt to break
American morale and to influence the
shipping public to oppose enforcement
of the Jones act.
Big Slump.
Never, for years. has the ocean-go-
ing traffic from the Pacific Coast been
so small as now. This is due, partly to
the recent financial crisis in Japan,
which found the Japanese much over
bought. But the serious depreciation
of exchange in China and in the Phil
ippines has left these countries also
to buy American goods.
American ships are leaving Pacific
ports half empty, unable to secure
cargoes.
japanese steamers have already been
chartered by lumber interests in the
North Pacific at what is termed O ri
diculous charter price. One steamer
has been engaged to carry lumber to
the United Kingdom at s45 a thou
sand feet, while it is stated on excel
lent authority that a fleet of 10 Jap
anese freighters will shortly appear at
the Columbia River for grain and flour
cargoes at charter fees far lower than
those quoted by the U. S. Shipping
Board.
United Fight?
Some American shippers profess to
see in the new Japanese price slash
ing concerted action by all foreign
nationals operating on the Pacific.
British and Nipponese steamships are
now carrying what cargoes they can
get as low at 81 a ton in the Orient
in an effort to eliminate the American
competition, returned Americans state.
Chambers of Commerce are appeal
ing to American shippers, manufac-
turers and exporters to utilize Ameri-
can vessels only for their cargoes.
They state that now is the critical
time. If American vessels are able to
weather the war during the present de-
preston. they will be in position TO
command the trade when conditions
again become normal, as is expected.
about next January.
But, they state, should foreign com
panies succeed in driving off Ameri-
can vessels, rates will be even higher
in the spring.

CROWE-NORWOOD

At the Methodist parsonage in Gre
NADIA last Saturday afternoon, Rev.
w. w. Woodland officiating, Mr.. Harry
Grove of Memphis made Miss Leona
Earl Norwood, daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. j. E. Norwood, his bride. There
were no parental objections; it just
suited all parties better and the oc-
casion to visit the parsonage for this
important event.
Mr.. Grove was in Grenada for a
long while connected with the con-
struction of the new building at Gre
NADIA College and it was then that he
met his fair bride and it was in
those months that Cupid wove the
fabric and spun the web that cap
tured the heart of this lovely young
woman. Mr.. Grove made a fine i'm
preston on those who got to know
him while in Grenada. His industry
and his technical skill as well as his
integrity of character serve as a
guarantee that he will live sacredly
up to the obligation which he has as
sumed.
Mrs. Grove is the oldest daughter
of the household and her amiableness
of disposition is only exceeded by that
intuition and native intelligence which
are so important in directing proper
ly the affairs of any home. She is
a very fine young woman and The
Sentinel joins her. many friends in
wishing her every joy and happiness.
Congratulations and best wishes to
Mr.. and Mrs. Grove.

KOSMAN-MORAIS.

On Sunday evening last, August l,
at the home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Isidore Morals at 5208
Magazine street, New Orleans, MI.
C. w. BOSNIAN and Miss Rose G. Mo-
rails were united in holy wedlock, a
Jewish Rabbi saying the ceremony.
Mr.. BOSNIAN has been a resident
of Grenada for quite a number OF
years and is n OF the important
business factors of the town. His
position in the cotton world has been
a somewhat unique one. He has
achieved quite a great success. He
is a genial character and is obliging
in all things. He is public spirited
and possesses a keenness of judg-
ment and that business foresight
which is one of the marked distinc-
tons of the Hebrew family. That he
will bestow upon his fair and lovely
bride that affection and love which is
such an essential factor in the con-
Ijugal bliss, is warranted by his WOO
lings and those characteristics that he
has displayed in other matters.
Mrs. BOSNIAN is a lady of rare cul-
ture. She is a daughter Of one OF
the most prominent Jewish families
in the Crescent City. She will grace
any position in society and is happily
| endowed with those lovable qualities
of mind and heart which go to make
a congenial companion and a good
wife.
Only the immediate members of
the family were present outside of
the groom's special friend, w. K.
huntington, cashier of the Grenada
Trust and Banking Co. Of Grenada,
who acted as best man. Miss Rose
Levy was maid of honor.
The bride and groom left for a
weeks stay in Biloxi after which they
will go to Chicago and return to
Grenada about the last of August.
The Sentinel tenders congratulations
and best wishes.

Breusht From France.

The remains Of David Minis, son
Of Mr.. and Mrs. 8. e. Minis, ST., of
this County, reached Grenada last
Friday night under military escort de-
tailed by the War Department at
Washington. Funeral services were
held Saturday morning from the
family residence on Line street after
which interment was had in Odd Eel
lows cemetery.
MI. Minis was among the thousands
in Mississippi who went out to defend
the flag of his country and to pun
ish Germany for killing American cit
izens. He fell q victim Of that dread
ed malady, flu, which swept away its
thousands both in the army and in
private life. The immediate cause
Of his death, as reported by the War
Department, was lobar pneumonia.
He expired at Brest, France, January
81, 1919, and was buried with mill
tary honors and a christian service
in Lambezelle cemetery. Naturally
the good mother and father wanted
the remains of their son brought
home and laid away for the final
resurrection in the soil of his own
country.
Mr.. and Mrs. Minis are among the
many thousands Of others who were
called upon to give of their loved
ones in this terrible war. Their
friends mourned with them when the
news first came of the death of their
son. The hearts of the fond parents
were again made to bleed when the
remains reached home, in which hour
they have the tenderest sympathy Of
friends. They car rest in the assur'
ance that their son died at the call Of
duty and for the country that gave
him protection and next to duty t.
God and to family, the Scripture
teaching is that God smiles upor
those who are loyal to the land thai
they call home. This being true, faitl
furnishes the consolation that thi!
youth had the Angels of Heaven tt
encamp around about his sick bee
and that a Heavenly company wa!
sent to convey his spirit home.
