FINE REPORT BY
 I. B. SANATORIUM

Splendid results ia the treatment o1 tuberculosis at tha Arkansas Tubercu Iosis Sanitorium for the past twt years, are shown in the biennial re port of the board of trustees. 2 copy of which was gwen the Log Cabin Democrat today by Dr. George :. Brown, member of the board.
 According to the report S2S patients were received during the period from December 20, 1918, to December %, 1920. Of this number 121 were dis charged with arrested cases, 277 were discharged with improved cases, 246 were discharged with unimproved cases, 12 died and 172 remained in the sanatorium on December 20. 1920. During the two years the average per capita cost per patient was S2.15, and the average stay of a patient was 156 1-2 days. The largest gain in weight by a patient was 57 pounds and the largest loss was 23 pounds. Weight gained by all patients totaled 6.360 1-2 pounds, and weight lost to- taled 991 IA pounds. The number of meals served was 5S2,455, at an aver age cost per meal of 19 1-10 cents.
 As there is a large waiting list, an appropriation for another building is requested of the legislature, which is also asked to provide for an improved road from Bonneville to the sanator- ium, a distance of four and one-half miles.
 During the biennial period Faulkner county had 2S patients in the insti- tuition, only four counties, Lawrence, Logan, Pulaski and Sebastian, hav- ing large number.

This is exclusive of 63 hospitals with 6,552 beds, 12S clinics, rescue homes for girls and unnumbered thousands of refugees who are being helped through our industrial relief and in other ways.
 "The Near East Relief has during the .'ast four or five years commission ed and sent to the Near East more than 1000 American relief workers, of whom 500 are still 1n the field, all of them working at great financial sacri- fice-the standard of salary being $50 per month and maintenance-and many of them facing great personal danger and hardship In the perform ance of their life-savipg service. A score of them have died from typhus or other diseases more or less related to their faithfulness In the perform ance of relief service.
 Nor is that all. We have raised and disbursed during war times and in war-torn area, in large measure under enemy control, more than $4l,- Wo,OOo in cash, and, including flour, Red Cross and other supplies admin istered by our agents, a total of cash and supplies in excess of $50 COG, ,OUO The official reports show that on June 50. 1920, we had in orphanages q ,OOO ehAdren, and that We are partially supporting outside of the orphanages 5Ao39 children, making a total of llO,- GOO boys and girls now under the care of the Near East Relief"
 Mr. Dodge considers the work of the Near East Relief one of the most stupendous undertakings of disnter- ested philanthropy the world has ever seen.
 "IL countries whose population to- tals more than 3O,OOO,OOO souls, Ameri- | can idealism exemplified by the work of the Near East Relief constitutes today a torch of enlightenment and n influence for peace throughout the whole Near East" he maintains. "Our American ideal of liberty, industry and ! helpfulneSs has brought us as q people happiness, prosperity and fulfIlment. Out of the fullness of this heritage we are furnishing a faithful and uu- daunted Christi. n people tho brotLerlv aid which will enable them 10 reach tie same fulfillment that God has ! given us.
 Tt is an achievement of which every American may well be proud"

 KILLED IN WORLD WAR
(Bv United Press1

London, Jan. 17.-The hundreds of dumb animals who made the supreme sacrifice in doing their bit for Britain are to have national war memorial. Few people realize how many classes of beasts and birds contributed their share towards the final victory. A list of animals that were of inesti- mable value to the allies has now been published and comprises: Horses, dogs, mules. camels, elephants, oxen, mlce, reindeer, pigeons, canaries. cats and goldfish. Hundreds of elephants lost their lives on the eastern front, where they acted as patient beasts of burden for the haulage of heavy guns. Reindeer were valuable to the Russian campaign. No fewer than 120,013 camels were killed. The horses sacrificed their lives in thou sands. On the western front alone 364,130 were killed.
 Faithful dogs of all classes proved themselves wonderfully intelligent in fulfilling their duties of carrying mes sages, transporting field telephone in struments, Red Cross service and sentry duty, Goldfish rendered valu- able military service, too, They were placed in the water in which gas hel-
