American Red Cross relief opera.
tons in Europe during the last fiscal
year were concerned almost entirely
in aiding otherwise helpless hOrdeS OF
refugees and establishing chain Of
child health units that are rescuing
thousands of children from the misery
war has visited upon them, says the
annual report of the Red Cross.
In Austria the American Red Cross
program resulted in the distribution
Of food, clothing and medical supplies
to 100000 persons, mostly children ;
gave employment in garment making
to 10000 native women; provided 25,-
100000 francs worth of medical and
other supplies to 235 hospitals, $500
beds to institutions caring for $1,000
children and assisted organizations
reaching 100000 persons.
In South Russia and Constantinople
the organization was called upon to
suddenly care for 10000 refugees,
who were forced to leave the Crimea
when Wrangel's army collapsed. 1t
distributed all the supplies originally
placed at its disposal in the Near East,
100000 sent by the Russian embassy
in the United States and an additional
own reserve fund.
In Poland 10000 refugees who had
fed before the Russian soviet invasion
were cared for, 100000 children were
assisted with food and clothing. Per
manent relief work was established In
many hospitals for children, more than
1000 surgical cases were cared for
weekly and maximum of 100000
persons were fed in single month.
Aid for Earthquake Victims.
In Italy the chief work of the Amer
lean Red Cross last year was assist
ance given in the Mugello and Tuscany
earthquakes, when 1t had 215 tents
with all relief supplies erected and in
operation within 48 hours
In Hungary the outstanding feature
of the work for the year was the dis
tribution to needy children and refu-
gees OF 100000 articles Of clothing
and the mobilization OF $1,000 native
women in nationwide knitting cam
paign. The total relief supply distri-
buttons of the Red Cross in Hungary
for the year averaged ten tons day.
In Greece $4,000 Greek refugees
from the Caucasus were assisted with
food and clothing and later were given
such supplies that large number Of
them were able to colonize in 50 de-
serted villages and resume their nor
NAL occupations. A complete child
health program was also inaugurated
among 10000 children.

A Timely Suggestion.

This is the season of the year wher
the prudent and careful housewife
replenishes her supply Of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t is almost
certain to be needed before the win
ter is over and results are much
more prompt and satisfactory when il
is kept at hand and given as soon as
the first indication of a cold appears
and before it has become settled in
the system. There is no danger in
giving it to children as it contains no
opium or other harmful drug. N

rocks Of mines are, observed to creep
under less pressure. In recent ex-
periments, two hemispheres of rock
